It was really interesting noticing how he was essentially approaching drowning. There are very specific physiological symptoms that are present in someone who is starting to have that reaction- triggered by the feeling of failing to support yourself in water- that he was absolutely showing. Specifically when he attempted swimming in multiple layers, the way his voice had that panicked "cracking" and he was breathing very heavily. If this was the depth of a reservoir, and not a pool, you would definitely die.
Exactly as I thought. 1. You can swim in shade balls, just harder to do. So you should not. Great to hear that the manufacturer sees this as a concern. 2. You can swim in shade balls, just not the shade balls in the water reservoir. 3. Pool with water and floating balls, hop in. 4. They do look like boba.

It's because we imagine what's happening with us in such a situation. Head lower than the other body isnt comfortable, and the biggest problem is that you can't do anything to change it. But in this case you can save yourself because it's just a pool and you can swim or even stand there, and there are two professionals, but in the lake even if not alone youre probably doomed.
@Savannah Banana there are no such creatures (dunno about Australia :D), but the situation itself is much more terrifying than some creature. Because caves are cold as hell (if its correct to put it this way :D), and more dangerous enemy of yours will be the cold around you in the.. not worth saying amount. Starvation is out of competition, uknow
Thanks for the laughs tonight! I enjoy these nerdy videos and explanations, and I was also mesmerized by the movement and behavior of the single layer of shade balls and the patterns on the pool floor. I do wonder how much jumping in on them or swimming through them hurt, especially with the butterfly stroke. I have the feeling I'd probably drown and/or get pulled out with massive bruising over my entire body, but I have chronic fatigue and health issues that mean I bruise easily. However, I still want to try jumping in, just once, and I want to see the patterns beneath the surface.
this reminds me of the way that small single-celled life forms have to swim through water. this ball pit pool is somehow relating to microbes. i really need to go outside.
@@shahulrahim4039 No. A boat is more cleaner because it can be sanitized. a human sweats, sweat has bacteria.

Disbeetaa if you can get the same speed as your normal speed in shade balls as in regular swimming, you would be a lot stronger, meaning you can better power through the water, increasing your speed.
Versitasium has got 10.000Shade balls with a radius of 10cm. He wants to fill up a pool with them. The pool has got a rectangular shape. How large has the pool to be for them to fit exactly one times into the pool? How much do they weigh? whats the average density of the whole system balls+water assuning, that the depth of the pool is 2m? How would all all of that change, if the pool was a perfect circle? How would it change, if the depth of the circle shaped pool would be proportional to the distance to the center? What if his pool is a semisphere? What if he is so massive, that the water curves around him? (assume him beimg in the center of the semisphere and him having a mass of 10^20Kg) Also assume him to be spherical with a radius of 1m

Can grabbing onto shade balls save you from drowning? How many shade balls can you hold onto at once?
the scene from the "incredible" movie, with the alarms saying " *INVASION ALERT* " ...
Exactly what I thought!!!
YOU BEAT ME TO THE COMMENT
I don’t get it
Amelia Machanic theres a scene from the Disney movie “The Incredibles” where the main character gets trapped in large black balls that resembled the ones in the video. Watching the scene might give you better context lol 😊

9:36 reminds me of The Incredibles 1, when Bob got captured in secret bunker.
"I'm not actually the best swimmer so I brought over some friends"
Friend proceeds to dive in belly first.
It's not like the second jump was any better, LOL
I was gonna comment that tbh 😂😂😂😂
hey he didn't said his friends are any better xDDDD
the pool isn’t actually that deep, and it’s dangerous to dive in shallow water.
This man: swims in shade balls
The incredibles fans: PTSD episode
That’s pretty much why I clicked on this video 😂

I almost d!Ed washing this, I hold my breath when I see underwater or someone else is underwater 😂 😂
Horror story: You get dropped in the middle of the water reservoir, unable to swim.
Literally just dive down and swim under the balls.
Just walk out.

Classic lol.
It takes balls to do something like this.
Shade balls
A set actually
About 10,000 of them to be specific
correct
No just no you broke humour

I was waiting for the part where you would film under the water with multilayer balls 🎱
And this was the moment that shade balls became the official training for Olympic swimmers.
Olympic trainers: Alright folks, lets head to the ball pit
Trainees: Ball pit?
Olympic Trainer: Yes, the adult ball pit
Anadaere lol. Yep :D
swimming with balls that block your motion is not the same as swimming fast
Disbeetaa if you can get the same speed as your normal speed in shade balls as in regular swimming, you would be a lot stronger, meaning you can better power through the water, increasing your speed.
Flyingturret208: The Cannon exactly!
This is it. This is the guy who would be in a Physics example problem in a textbook
Versitasium has got 10.000Shade balls with a radius of 10cm. He wants to fill up a pool with them. The pool has got a rectangular shape. How large has the pool to be for them to fit exactly one times into the pool?
How much do they weigh?
whats the average density of the whole system balls+water assuning, that the depth of the pool is 2m?
How would all all of that change, if the pool was a perfect circle?
How would it change, if the depth of the circle shaped pool would be proportional to the distance to the center?
What if his pool is a semisphere?
What if he is so massive, that the water curves around him? (assume him beimg in the center of the semisphere and him having a mass of 10^20Kg) Also assume him to be spherical with a radius of 1m

Got a little anxiety watching this especially the "quick sand" part.

Motion-Tutor.com like I felt nervous and like mixed emotions and i felt a chill go down my spine
@@jazzlyns.5979 yes it's pretty scary looking
Yeah I'd feel better if they had a rescue pole that they can stick in under the balls so the person in the water can find the best way out.
Yeah it's very scary looking. Like a death trap. A slow death trap.

He should have named the video: "I tried to swim in shade balls" That would make it easier to go viral
6:42 I just have to say that this is gorgeous, it's like one of those fantasy forests
Literally said, "We will not promote swimming in shade balls"
1 minute later: "Swimming in shade balls is a good workout!"
Calling something a good workout is the opposite of promoting it.
Nobody sane wants to work out.
Amaracea a hahahaha hilarious
Except he LITERALLY never said "Swimming in shade balls is a good workout!"
@@m3chanist You are right I do not know, but it was a funny comment. I was paraphrasing. Just adding a little jazz.

“You can’t swim in the drinking reservoir” but you can drive a boat in it?
It’s a special type of boat that doesn’t pollute the water

Also the reservoir doesnt have a roof, so I suspect the drinking water there has a slight bird poop aftertaste
You can swim under the shade balls. 😎

Lol...Ye true
Are you throwing shade at Veritasium?
But how do u get up?
