My heart rate rose as the bats kept spinning faster and faster in the intro. That didn't sound like that thin piece of wood could protect against failure.
I'm always like "stop being so careful, man! Have some guts and go crazy" on his experiments. But this one is the first time I was like "slow down man, you can really mess up this time!" Awesome
@Opecuted the sound has nothing to do with the radar detection. Unless it is a vibration detector, in which case maybe. But radar in general is usually gonna need an object to be there and that it can detect not just sound. As he said, it's a joke, so it really doesn't matter.
That was the first thing I thought when I heard 250 mph bat speed, and saw that guard they made. I have seen those long drive guys put 200 mph golf balls through that with ease. A baseball at over 250 mph would would go through that like buck shot through drywall. I would only get behind thick lexan or sand bags. Not even sure about concrete blocks.
11:09 "if you play center field, listen to how hard this thing is hit" As someone who played center field, I actually jumped at that sound. That is absolutely terrifying.
The fact that you needed a machine that was basically a helicopter to hit a home run further than Babe Ruth and Micky Mantle is a testament to those two men. And the third one, the AAA home run, props to your amazing 582 too.
Both were no question way ahead of their counterparts but no chance either could hit further than say Barry Bonds or even a random modern slugger like Bryce Harper. Sports have always exaggerated their numbers for hype.
@@sorrenzz3610 Actually if the artist is good enough they can fool anyone. Especially if it's just a short segment and the video is at least made to look like it was shoot using a bad camera. Knowing why it can't be true is an entirely other thing.
I love how this channel has evolved into Destin living out childhood dreams using adult engineering knowledge and the Alabama boy "just go for it" attitude. As a fellow Alabama boy this channel really makes me happy.
I mean, if you are the type of person that get build a baseball bat helicopter, you are also *hopefully* smart enough to be able to replicate this experiment with some degree of safety!
Hi, I appreciate the bats are not shaped anything like a helicopter blade but the visual and audio of the bats spinning… in my gut I expected the machine to lift off 😁🤓.
9:55 Thank you for providing slow motion footage that actually lets you watch frame by frame at 1080p60. Most slow motion on youtube can only be played at 30 fps or less.
@@anamayarawa514 a bat is approx 86cm long. so thats the radius. 2*Pi*86cm = approx. 540cm. so thats the outline of the full circle. That would mean 540cm/rotation * 1800 rotation/minute = 972000cm/minute. Meaning: Assuming your 1800 rotations per minute is correct and the length of the bat is correct, too, the furthest most point of the bat was 582km/h fast. or 364mp/h. thats kinda nuts
With the engineering and power behind this rig to go about 700 ft, it really validates how incredibly skillful pro baseball players that go yard at much lower velocities are
That plywood cage you're hiding behind probably wouldn't stop objects flying at you from that speed. No one is safe, 360 degrees in ANY direction from the swinging bat.
Well, actually, if the bats rotated as they spun (or spun as they rotated?) they would develop aerodynamic properties and you could have some lift. I have seen some experimental wind turbines that work like that. Something to think about! 🤓 (I am actually in the power industry)
@@mrkeefor The vibrations from such a setup will do that. In helicopters the rotors have several degrees of freedom to lead and lag as well as bounce up or down as this effect is called ground resonance and will rip a rotorcraft to pieces, there are a few youtube videos of this on various rotorcraft testing and proving trials.
10:48 this is a fps to rps close match, which makes it seem like it spinning slower, but then when the ball hit it just stops for a moment, That just looks super weird.
Yeah when a rotating object reaches a fast enough RPM the blade or in this case the bats position will be occupied by the preceding bat in each frame your eye records. Quite trippy.
It must have had side spin. Imagine how far it would go with true backspin. They would get better accuracy with pitches and hits if they used the dimpled batting cage balls but wouldn't get as good of sound or sweet curves
I laughed so hard i cried. Something about the ball trajectory and the failing bats is just comedic gold. This was so well produced, completely batsh*t and super dangerous. 10/10
And what will be something along the lines of "and here we have the solid core tungsten 'bat' attached to the infernal rotating death machine. We've once again dialed back the rate of rotation because it obliterated the last 16 balls we hit with it."
@Gil Andrei Sotomayor Figueroa those are not accurate. Those where distances after ball stopped rolling. All these juiced freaks now days cant even come close is a big red flag to those 580 ft so called hR by ruth and mantle
Cesar Perez You have to realize that Babe Ruth used a 42 ounce bat and never lighter than a 38 ounce bat. Even the big guys nowadays only use a 34 ounce bat. There have been studies done that show the stronger guys would produce optimum distance with a bat around 50 ounces. Considering that the pitching wasn’t as good, he could and did swing as hard as possible every single time.
Tim Snortin' Babe Ruth himself said he swung as hard as possible every single time. All the video of his at bats show the same. There is no way pitching was as difficult to hit back then. Not even close. Very few pitchers in his day had any hard breaking stuff like a slider, let alone with a 6 inch break.
I'm way to late commenting on this video but just going through some older video's I haven't watched. Great content and your excitement for what you do is great. Also, Skunk Works is an AMAZING book, highly recommend for anyone.
Destin: Y'all ready to get smarter everyday? Also Destin: You reckon this 3/4" sheet of plywood can stop an aluminum bat being hurled at my face at 250 MPH? Bat: Hold my beer...
It's definitely over an inch thick (2:01). I don't want to minimize safety, because IMO it should be first, but you sure the bat wouldn't have had to come in at juuust the right angle to put more than a dent in that? And what kind of velocity would be left if it got through? Might tickle a little. Batters get hit with 90 mph pitches all the time, direct to the body.
I think a lot of people are underestimating how strong inch thick plywood is, I understand why people would be concerned but still. Against something as large as a bat I wouldn't worry, if they had tiny shards of aluminium flying around the place then maybe that would be an issue
Tiny shards of Al might stick themselves in the first few layers of ply, but the pointy end of a broken handled, solid hickory bat doing 190mph would poke itself right through!

This is legit one of the scariest things I’ve seen Destin do. I’m glad he upgraded the pitcher’s protection!
He really coulda just tossed the ball into the spin from right behind it
@Robert Hillen Be glad the bat didnt hit him.
Balls would 50/50 kill him, bats would explode him. That's basically a cannonball.
It sounded like a helicopter, also they need to put some concrete blocks in the housing of the motor to reduce the vibrations. It was shaky.
My heart rate rose as the bats kept spinning faster and faster in the intro. That didn't sound like that thin piece of wood could protect against failure.

Destin at 7:22 watch his head he slowly goes down behind the wall 😂😂 looked like a cartoon
You've just invented a new World Record category:
Mechanical homerun length.
And what will be something along the lines of "and here we have the solid core tungsten 'bat' attached to the infernal rotating death machine. We've once again dialed back the rate of rotation because it obliterated the last 16 balls we hit with it."
@@ZerglingOne1 id watch that
12:47 is what you came for
Batman I came for the failed attempts too
thanks i wasn’t going to watch 13 minutes of filler
Batman you are a hero
thanks🤝
Thank you sir
Most impressive part is how the previous records were set by humans with just pure manpower

elliott gomez does it matter if steroids were used? Take some steroids and see if you can do it
@Gil Andrei Sotomayor Figueroa those are not accurate. Those where distances after ball stopped rolling. All these juiced freaks now days cant even come close is a big red flag to those 580 ft so called hR by ruth and mantle
Cesar Perez You have to realize that Babe Ruth used a 42 ounce bat and never lighter than a 38 ounce bat. Even the big guys nowadays only use a 34 ounce bat. There have been studies done that show the stronger guys would produce optimum distance with a bat around 50 ounces. Considering that the pitching wasn’t as good, he could and did swing as hard as possible every single time.
Tim Snortin' Babe Ruth himself said he swung as hard as possible every single time. All the video of his at bats show the same. There is no way pitching was as difficult to hit back then. Not even close. Very few pitchers in his day had any hard breaking stuff like a slider, let alone with a 6 inch break.
I'm way to late commenting on this video but just going through some older video's I haven't watched. Great content and your excitement for what you do is great. Also, Skunk Works is an AMAZING book, highly recommend for anyone.
Destin: Y'all ready to get smarter everyday?
Also Destin: You reckon this 3/4" sheet of plywood can stop an aluminum bat being hurled at my face at 250 MPH?
Bat: Hold my beer...
The NotSoGuitarGuy he was in legit mortal danger for like half the vid
@@alex0589 - no doubt. For something like that he needed a reinforced blast wall.
It's definitely over an inch thick (2:01). I don't want to minimize safety, because IMO it should be first, but you sure the bat wouldn't have had to come in at juuust the right angle to put more than a dent in that? And what kind of velocity would be left if it got through? Might tickle a little. Batters get hit with 90 mph pitches all the time, direct to the body.
I think a lot of people are underestimating how strong inch thick plywood is, I understand why people would be concerned but still. Against something as large as a bat I wouldn't worry, if they had tiny shards of aluminium flying around the place then maybe that would be an issue
Tiny shards of Al might stick themselves in the first few layers of ply, but the pointy end of a broken handled, solid hickory bat doing 190mph would poke itself right through!

You know it’s fast when the bat starts bending

I’m more surprised that entire thing didn’t fly away.

Kitsune!! I was waiting for that thing to start flying like a helicopter 🤣🤣
Just imagine he is like "You ready?" Then the thing just starts taking off
5:49 is where the intro left off.
edit: wow! thanks guys, i wasnt expecting such a positive response to my comment. im glad it helps.
Billy Darley your my hero

Omg thanks so much
Get this more likes so it gets top comment
Why skip it though?
Straight to the action, without learning anything?
Why watch *SmarterEveryDay* if you don't want to get smarter?
THANK YOU FOR CREATING THIS VIDEO!!! I loved the video and played baseball as a kid in the 70's. I also served 28 years in the US Air Force and had SAP access to the SR-71 program in the 80's before it was decommissioned in the early 90's.
The sound of the machine at full speed is absolutely terrifying.
sounded like a helicopter with non-aerodynamic blades that wasn't supposed to take off but nonetheless almost taking off
