Actually. Now I want to know how you write on the screen backwards like a boss.
Immajeanyus when he writes on the screen, the video is inverted. look at the buttons on his shirt :)
***** Mayyyyyyyybbeeeeee
Immajeanyus writing backwards is easy
Immajeanyus Because Science!
Immajeanyus The flipped video explanation is correct. Re-watch the video and you will see in the first part his buttons are on one side up to the point he writes on the screen then after that his buttons are on the other side in the rest of the video. Why ... because movie magic!
"You can test this by falling from space."
Oh no, dude, I'm not falling for that a third time.
I think you mean "hnnghra-glaaaaakch"
Hahaha
Liesmith LOL
I legit read this as he said it
Uh...I don't understand what's going on here.
How Does QUICKSILVER Listen to Music? ? With his ears
hehe..... I'm not funny I know ;-;
+NinjaYamaStudios lmao
Sven Winkler thx pal
Haha thanks for this I laughed LOL xD
Mark Edward Tan Awww... Thanks pal!
I just thought quicksilver puts his music on fast forward
angelo azarcon lol i hadn't even thoought of that. ...though he'd still need to record songs onto the tape at a pretty high speed to augment said fast-forward. 2 minutes of music into half a second of bullet time. ...right?
Edit the song
@Walteryeah but that only explains how he can hear it. If the music wasn’t sped up a ton as well, he’d only get to hear the first 0.05 seconds of the song before he finishes running...
Oh and also if you fast forward a cassette it doesn’t make any sound, the music wouldn’t just be sped up.
@@brendanmoll4799 exactly, but fortunately in the Xmen movies, we can see that instead of a normal belt, he actually has a canonically stolen prototype of a real device that was unfortunately never put into production, called the ,"stereo-belt", created by Andreas Pavel n 1972. One of the functions of this amazing work of electric-engineering is that it can allow the listener to listen to cassette tapes at higher speeds then the average walkman, able to speed up the music to capabilities of around 1800 times faster at max.
"You can test this by falling from space" Yep, I fall from space today, twice and I can really see the effects.

same here
Lol, yea, that was a weird analogy :) But it's the same effect on supersonic aircraft. Sound still propagates as normal inside the cabin.
Brandon Rickson I read this just as this happened lol
I thought the thumbnail was quick silver and Thor
+Random-shiz SAME HELP
+Asteria x Help with what?
I didn't even notice all these other comments saying the same thing 😂
So did I, actually!
Random-shiz fr
I remember in one comic, to prove your point, that Quick silver doesn't just " choose" to go fast. He literally perceives things as slow etc. And gets annoyed with talking to people etc, because their sounds are going too slow.
Wouldn't everything go slow for him, not just talking?
I remember that one, it was one of the early second-run X-Force comics, where he's talking to Doc Samson (as a psychiatrist) and describes it as being something like being behind someone who doesn't know how to use an aTM machine-but all the time.
@@danielball959 no such thing as an ATM machine as ATM stands for automatic telling machine so saying ATM machine is saying automatic telling machine machine.
that explains why he's so impatient when he's with magneto in first class
@@FoxDren do you want a cookie?
"You can test this by falling from space"
Me: Well I will never be able to test this .
You act like people don't just go into space and jump back into Earth when they're bored. I do it all the time. Lol
Lol
you can test it, but only once..

I'll be honest, when I saw the thumbnail I thought this was a video comparison between Quicksilver and Thor.
Omg dude same! He looks like Thor!
Underrated comment Lmao
Bruh
Give this kid a medal.
That roast
My theory is that Quicksilver can go so fast because he produces a pocket of space-time around him that makes everything within the pocket move way faster than everything outside the pocket. That means that he can, like in X-Men, touch other things and people without instantly destroying them with his crazy speed, therefore acceleration, therefore force. The things he touches enters his bubble and he can interact with them like he and they are standing still, and then when they leave his bubble, they retain their original slowness. If Quicksilver was just moving himself so fast without the bubble, then when, for example, he moved the cop's arm to punch himself with it, that tons of acceleration that Quicksilver moved his arm with would have just ripped it clean off because, as was shown, he moved the cop's arm nearly as fast or faster than a speeding bullet. That also explains why his music is playing super fast. The Walkman is inside of his bubble, so it operates just as fast as Quicksilver can run. That's also why air resistance isn't much of a problem. The air that he runs into enters his space-time bubble and acts just like air at normal speed in relation to Quicksilver, so his hair moves and he needs goggles but the air resistance wouldn't tear him to shreds. Oh, I just realized there might be a problem with this theory. Oh well.
thebagelbomb but hey thats just a theory... a quicksilver theory and cut
Wow
thebagelbomb
TOTALLY!!!
And the bubble/Subtle Smart Skin has membrane layers. One of the superficial layers can store energetic value potentials for all of the laws of conservation at play with a touched object when it was last interacting with its former supper space.
While he is touching, say a fired bullet, his most superficial bubble layer is responsible for the suspended energy potential of the fired bullet. The energy potetial could just be dancing around in his outer layer, he can't redirect it like Sebastian Shaw, but the energy is intelligently returned once contact is relinquished with the bullet.
This would be all great if i didn't see him support the necks of people he takes with him while sprinting...
Sounds legit!!! Let's go with that.
Nice Theory
This also makes sense just because he has to find a way to obtain the oxygen even though when when we breath it sucks the air in so that explains how the air sucks in fast enough to travel all the way to his lungs with no signs of suffocation
"You can test this by falling from space."
Yea sure let me try that, one second.
*get's a space suit*
See if this was Flash you could just say "because speedforce"
ez xD
Flash is faster
+Christian Dael You just made my day, thank you.
+Kamal Abdullah no shit
Flash > quicksilver
"you can test this by falling from space" - yeah okay cool ill just book that in for tomorrow at 8am...
Lol
Lmfao
It annoys me that people are commenting this. What he said is completely normal.
its just a stupid way to tell people to test it, literally nobody that watches this will be able to test it that way.
even if we were astronauts we wouldnt be able to just pick and choose when to test this.
sirjezzumz It is not saying that you or anyone in particular WILL be able to. It is saying that it is POSSIBLE to do that, which it IS
Actually Quicksilver makes a force around himself, it allows things to travel with him when he speeds around. It's why he can move Eric around and he gets sick from the motion, yet when he's not touching anyone when he starts running, they're (semi) frozen in time still.
its because he has his own time area around him in his "speed force" like the flash, he can hear it because it is in his speed force with him.
Which'd also explain how he can move those guard's arms without shattering them from the acceleration.
pixel girl or he probably just moves his arms slower.
thats the best theory I've heard in this matter actually
um the speedforce is in the other universe (DC)
@@mohamedhazem8702 it's not a theory. That's how it is explained in the comics.
The person that makes these videos never so their research. I knew this shit in the 1990's when I read the comics.
I thought you were Thor when I clicked this video.
lol
me too dude... me too
+senfglas HOW THOU LISTEN TO THOUS MUSIC THINGY
Same here
That click bait tho
"You can see this by falling through space." Ok Lemme just go to my local space station
1:50 I like how he only says Erik and Charles, since Logan has his healing factor
It's stated in the comics that this is pretty much true. I don't think they go over the music as such but Quicksilver talks about how horrible his life is because he thinks infinity times faster than everybody else.
Why is Thor talking about science and quicksilver?
XD
Lmao
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 holy i didn't notice that
Joelito Tu Papichulo did you notice quick silver going fast in slow mo
If he managed to compress and record the song on 0.05s worth of tape, then the player could be playing at normal speed.
I think that would be true except for the fact that sound quality (aka resolution) comes in to play. Try taking a digital photograph, reducing it in size by a factor of 1800, and then blowing it back up - it will be pixellated/blurry. You wouldn't be able to compress the song without losing information.
True for digital but tapes are analog. The theoretical maximum frequency for an audio tape is about 12 kHz whereas the frequency of a middle C is 440 Hz meaning there is ............ ah ok only a factor of 27.
So you are right the highest note on that scale is B8 at 7902.13 Hz meaning if you sped up the track anything over 1.51 times then you start to lose resolution at the top end and the higher the multiplier the more notes you will lose.

I consider nerd as a compliment
damn this guy brought out sources i shouldn't be here i feel really stupid
1:03 "you can test this by falling from space"
no we can't Kyle
I just thought about that and this video is recommended to me by UA-cam. UA-cam be reading minds
CokeBlue same i just looked the movie and asked me the questiom
Can you sub me please
Nah the government just be watching you all the time and reading your mind with a special machine they won’t tell us about
Charles Xavier owns youtube
I didn't know professor Xavier was working for UA-cam!
Not to be the biggest nerd here... BUT: quicksilver power is not an act of muscular strength, but an adaptation which allows his physical being to increase its vibratory frequency, ams whatever he touches-- not unlike night crawler, Kitty, and others. SO: his clothes, his Walkman,, magneto, whatever, will be sped up, too. So that's why he can hear the music, move people, clothes, etc.
Good video, though.
and*
+adam maldonado nope,its super strength in his legs
+Paul Patriot nah.
+adam maldonado Even so, wind resistance is still a factor.
+adam maldonado wouldn't the increase vibrations increase his temperature? I mean, heat energy causes atom to vibrate faster, right? that is why boiling water makes steam. Right? so wouldn't the increase in vibrations on his molecular level make him very (lethally) hot? quick silver would burn out very "quickly"
Maybe Quicksilver isn't listening to the music but the developers put the music over the scene. He puts his headphones on just so his ears done pop. DONE
They would still be in bits on the floor.
what would?
+RizMister the head phones
TheSupahNo0dLeHD well.. I dont have any idea cos i dont care anymore about logic. Enjoy the scene for what it is
First of all it is just a move. Second he effects molecules around him.
I want to know how Quick silver doesn't burn up or catch on fire because he doesn't have a friction prove suit. Like CW Flash or MCU Quick silver.
Flash run naked and he doesn't burn
that is a DAMN good question. I just assumed he recorded his favorite songs and speed them up so it could be heard while moving faster than sound.
if quicksilver is magneto's son, does that mean he likes speed metal?
i see what u did there
lol
Actually he's not magnetos son
+ConcertaBasedCringe why you have to ruin the joke, man? also, doesn't he say in the apocalypse trailer that he is?
+ConcertaBasedCringe he is magnetos son in the comics and now in the movies
Are you the white Cisco Ramon
Dead 😂😂😂
aha!!
Yes
XD
😂😂😂😂😂
he probably speeds up the music with the same speed he runs
I'm smart
Mr. hackster the cassette player would ter itself apart
no your not you millenial that doesnt even know casette player
DARK SIDER no because SCIENCE!
Remember the machine he play when he was at home, he speed that machine up
"You can test this by falling through space!"
I'm good mate, cheers
the only sense of it i can make is that he is operating in a different timeline. Speed is a comparative measurement, we measure speed based either on the constant of the speed of light or an assumed "constant" of the earth, speed is only speed when you have something to compare it to. There are three options;
1-quicksilver speeds himself up; the problem with that is that his clothes would burn off, his walkman would be unlistenable to etc.
2-quicksilver slows everything else down - slightly more convincing but difficult to explain how a single person would be powerful enough to slow down time for the entire multiverse, or if it was only locally slowed then wouldn't people report discrepancies.
3-he seperates himself into a pocket reality where time runs at a different pace than the rest of the world. that way people outside the pocket would experience him moving fast, and people inside the pocket would experience the world as moving slowly, niether are right or wrong they are just comparitive measurements. His walkman is on the inside of the pocket universe. The only problem with this is the wind in his face: that could be written off as stylistic rather than literal, or more convincingly that physical objects (such as wind) can pass through the barrier into the pocket.
There is a sort of president for this dimentional mucking about in the x men; cyclops gets his eye-beams by importing them from a energy based universe. and nightcrawler can hop himself through space (with his clothes and walkman if he were to carry one) its not too much of a leap to think that quicksilver could hop to a pocket-verse around himself that has a different timeline to ours whilst still interracting with ours.
Yes for the third option, seems more likely
it's only relative motion
+NeTz no right or wrong, it's a fictional movie.
Science Fiction.
It's how his brain interprets things, his eyes and brain process information so fast that from his perspective, everything looks like it's moving slowly.
if he is moving that fast, when he moved the guards arms, wouldn't their bones shatter like, really horribly?
What's the song name btw?
Agar.io Mobile i have no idea. i haven't seen the film.
+Agar.io Mobile sweet dreams eurythmics
+Agar.io Mobile In Days Of Future Past, the song is Time In A Bottle by Jim Croce.
Perfect song for the perfect moment in my opinion
One theory I thought about, but I haven't seen it yet, is that maybe Speedsters like Quicksilver and the Flash's power isn't super speed, but rather to slow down time around them, a personal little "Time Bubble" if you will. That would both explain why the Walkman plays normally, and why Eric's organs don't turn into mush, They're both in a relative 'safe area' of the Time Bubble, not enough to see what he sees, but enough to prevent damage. Sure, he holds his head to prevent whiplash, but with the G-forces he receives, he would have had some massive trauma from the 0-whatever acceleration.
I do have to point out that the movie answers this for us. In the seconds after he puts time back to normal (or starts moving at what is, for him, a super slow speed), we get to hear his cassette player. "Time in a Bottle" is on repeat and we hear it play within a second, sounding like techno instead of the actual song. It's actually played almost every time he's on screen in this way.
"if you run faster than light then you live in darkness" e d g y
Maybe quicksilver isn't fast but slows down time for the others. That would make everything plausible
Only Zoom does that
if he could control time he wouldn't be able to run on walls
+Nacho Rodriguez not necessarily
+“abcnon” Janniboy lp only hiro does that!
+Nacho Rodriguez well force is m/s^2 so there is less gravitational force. So basically he moves faster (relative to the others). But he wouldn't have to change anything.
"You could test this by falling from space."
I always saw that as a problem in the scene, but now this actually explains it
Thor.... is that you? Thor?

Lol! :b

+ThatGuy1672 YT Doesn't really matter. :b :p
+John Ramirez yeah

Still waiting on a Because Science video to the secret to Kyle Hill's beautiful flowing mane
Siddhi Desai Because Genetics.
Siddhi Desai Because he's worth it.
Question should be why the guards was not hurt when Quicksilver did change the position of their arms that now has moved sideways in a fraction of a second while holding a gun; the acceleration has to been so fast that all the fingers in the hand would been broken.
So if his brain can process info as quickly as he runs, he could read entire books in seconds and became a genius but he prefer to steal and play pong at high speed
"you can test this by falling from space"
QuickSilver must like nightcore
XDD
+USS Trekky i c what u did there
Not exactly. Proper Nightcored songs have higher bpm, but have stuff added to them. More beats, making the singer male or female etc.
+USS Trekky the guy in the video is writing backwards with his left hand so that we can read this shit he is writing......why is that only tripping me out and not anyone else?
+Daniel DePass OR they flipped the footage.
I can answer the Walkman question. It's a little known fact that in the comics, all clothes, shoes and any other item on the mutant has been created by Reed Richard's. He has used his science genius to create their clothes and accessories to withstand their powers and abilities when in use.
1:06 Yep, I remember watching that live when I was younger.
Another concern might be trying to avoid ripping the guards arms from their joints as he repositions them at that speed.
Quicksilver should be the smartest character in the MCU. Everyday could seem like 43200 hours to him so easily enough time for several hundred hours of learning everyday (not that we could take in that much). Also if asked a question with a perceived 0.5 second delay to Quicksilver that would seem like 30 minutes to think about and work out an answer.
Also you want to extend this even further, if you watch the Quicksilver bullet scene there are times where he is blurred even though you are meant to be following him in his fast state (when moving the two guys guns before stealing the cap).
This means that he could never listen to a song properly even if he sped it up as he seems to be able to vary his speed meaning the music would alway be too fast or too slow.
not to mention he could go to the library find the answer and come back.
Was about to reply "what about the flash?" then realized MCU was in text can't believe I nearly missed that XD
Pietro has a quick intellect but he is far from the most intelligent being in marvel. he doesn't actually perceive time as moving slowly unless he is actively using his power. sure he has insane reflexes allowing him to instantly activate his speed and dodge a close range attack from someone like cyclops but an entire day doesn't feel like a month it would be extremely boring if that is how he experienced everything
Damn! Thats some quantum shit there!!
according to doppler when he moves his earpods are attached to him.so they move with the same speed . and so its like they are not moving at all . but I think that the slow mo is just for the audience he travels really quick and hears really quick as.well
"you can test this by falling from space."
Excellent! I was skeptical, now I can see for myself.
I think Quicksilver's power works more along the lines of accelerating time in close proximity to his body. This could allow him to move around at incredible speeds, but not completely destroy the objects or people that he interacts with while traveling that fast.
So while the rest of the world experiences only 0.05 secs of time, Quicksilver and anything else in close proximity to him (cloths, walkman, ect.) has experienced 110 seconds of time.
The way you said "Time for some math" sounded more like "Time for some meth"...
Math
=
Mental
Abuse
To
Human
Math fucks you up twice as much as meth does
so original.
Accents fuck is over sometimes
im pretty sure that there is a bubble around his body that makes everything outside of the bubble very slow, but he is going fast. things like wind don't affect this bubble , nor quicksilver. the walking man caset tape thing is close enough to his body that it plays normally, and he can hear it. he is able to touch things and move them because the objects go inside the bubble and touches his body.
I don't think he needs to reproduce the music that fast, the walkman is in his same frame of reference. Time for him is "normal" meanwhile for everyone else is slowed down. While he is in motion everyone else seem stoped in time. Is sort of the same deal with the twins paradox
Sees Quick Silver in Real Life.
First thing he asks himself.
"I wonder how he listens to music??????😯"
Speedsters have always intrigued me the most and I've been doing research and calculations of DoFP's Quicksilver's speed for my own pleasure.
In X-Men: Son of M, Quicksilver himself explained that when he had super speed, he permanently perceives time in slow motion, which game him super reflexes among many other perks, however the downside is that everyday things like queueing, talking, or even waiting for things to just happen is magnified to unbearable slowness.
It is why he is always frustrated and angry with the world, it's not even his father and being a mutant is giving him a hard time, his powers is curse.
GuyWithAnAmazingHat It's also why he never reaches orgasm.
This question was on my mind from I first saw that scene.
Dude yes ! This was one of the questions I was thinking about ever since I saw the movie .
This is pretty much what I also deduced, I thought he would remix all his songs to play super fast and that's it lol. But I like relativity better, everything he touches also becomes fast like him, or something like that, that's why his clothes are not thorn off
Just say just because the plot wants to. It really saves time
😂😂😂😂
that's not nearly as much fun.
simpler solution: quicksilver lives in a time bubble outside of our regular time so he can move through our time and interact with full control of his force and speed, which explains how he listens to music because in his bubble the Walkman can play at normal speed relative to him while he and the Walkman both move through our time at super speed. also explains why he doesn't burst into flames and why he doesn't break every single thing he touches while moving super fast.
yes i was thinking about this the other day while re watching his scenes
You look like Thor
or Chewbacca.
+E One yeah 😂
I first saw the thumbnail in my recommended section and I was like "Ok what the fuck Thor has to do with Quicksilver!" so I clicked it because I thought this will be interesting(it was but not in the way I expected)
true 😂😂
it has been stated he thinks way faster than the average human too.
+MyFatezero yup
He would have to be able to process everything insanely fast or else he wouldn't know what he is doing while he is running.
+redstone dawg Not sure if the same applies for quicksilver but for the flash, he can think as quick as he moves.
+MyFatezero not just that, its stated in the comments, that for quicksilver, he sees EVERYTHING else in slow-motion, because of his super speed
+MyFatezero He also would have to have a much stronger and structurally sane bone mass, or the wind resistance would break him with his first couple steps. That added, he would need to be tolerant to burning, as the air molecules would create immense friction against his skin (and clothes). He also would need much more elastic skin, as the movements of running would tear and warp his skin due to the fast rubs. He also would need to have soundproof headphones, as with a regular headset- the sound waves would leech out the sides and the music will seem to get slowly more quiet to him. He also would need to -- oh fuck it.
I saw this video over antenna TV, didn't know it was a UA-cam video until he referenced his Flash video and said check the description
"You can test this by falling from space."
Oh, fun science project for the kids!
I thought this guy was thor... Haha 😂

are you writing backwards this whole time? are you writing on glass or is it cgi?
glass
hes a right hand i think, and they just reverse the image
+OneNastyPuppy I think he is ambidextrous
The answer is in the shirt buttons.
@@testtickles9975 that would make a lot of sense
My theory had always been recordings of songs in fastforward until they sounded right to him. The comics touch on his rapid intake actually, with Quicksilver comparing his whole life to being stuck in line at the atm behind people who don't know how to use the atm.
quicksilver has kind of the same abilities as the flash but he’s also able to control the molecules around him allowing him not to be slowed down by wind, I think, I saw it in a little quicksilver speed estimation video I watched some time ago so I can’t remember exactly what was said but it’s pretty much like that
This is simple: we aren't actually listening to the same song quicksilver is in that scene. Just because he is wearing a Walkman in that scene it doesn't automatically mean the music is the same music quicksilver is listening to. I'm not sure if you've noticed but he's wearing headphones in that scene so he's the only one would be able to hear the music.
+S Limon Thank you.
+Doughnut Intern what are you even trying say?????? not a single part of that gibberish makes sense
bull crap...how would you know? it's not like you helped make the movie or anything
whatever man...you're just making all this shit up to make people think you're smart...just because the music starts at the same time it doesn't mean it's the same music the character(s) are listening to...that's just where the music fit in the best. after all it wouldn't make sense to play music while everyone was just standing there
Just because it isn't guaranteed we're hearing the same music he's supposed to be listening to, doesn't mean that's what the creators aimed for. They lined it up, because they likely wanted to suggest that the song that the audience is hearing, is the same one Quicksilver is listening to. This was the most probable goal, and it certainly makes more sense than "oh, it happens at the same time, it's just a different song that lines up for no apparent reason."
" You can test this from falling from space!". Ah thanks m8.
2 things
1. A magnum is a cartridge measurement not the weapon. When you hear a term like 44 magnum it only means the guns chamber is designed to hold the longer cartridge but would not be a magnum itself.
2. Ive herd a theory that quicksilvers power is not speed but rather a controlled pocket of time dilation making him operate outside the governing body of time with in that pocket. So no special frame rate adjustments or repercussion of Physics would apply.
Now i know that time dilation would slow him not speed him up but physics dose say for every action there is an equal AND opposite reaction. I think he's power is that opposite in pocket form
what i really love about the slowmo scene is the one at 0:46 seconds. that guard died right? he's been hit by a relatively small object at supersonic speed. Also if you watch the scene (avialable on youtube), quicksilver then slaps another guard with his whole hand, so much so the guard recoils. Again, at supersonic speed, he should've exploded at that point, instead the movie shows them just get knocked out.
Am I the only one who's actually really disappointed that we DIDN'T get the version where his clothes are blown off because of wind resistance?
You might have said this, I don't know, but Quicksilver actually has a soundtrack of super sped up music so that it plays at normal speed for him.
comment without watching the video yay. btw it wouldnt be possible
Luca S. Fast music isn't possible?
Sausage Tube
you cant play music that fast with a walkman
1.Option: the walkman rotates faster than usual and plays the music super fast-> Not possible (he explained that in this very video btw.) ,the material cant withstand the needed rotation
2.Option: the tape of the cassette itself plays super fast music-> Not possible, bc of the way cassettes work, I'm too lazy to explain it in detail, google if you need, but its impossible to magneticly store that much information on a part of the tape that small.
+Sausage Tube at that speed the walk man would burn
TheHelvetican you are a dumb baby. It was explained multiple times why that wouldnt be possible at the necessary speed
You forgot that to be able to hear "sound" at several MHz the sensing elements of his ears must be tuned to these frequencies too. Plus the headphones must be special ultrasonic ones that play back music at these frequencies without insane losses.
Spider Robinson wrote a sci-fi short story in which the main character saw things at a higher frame rate, much like you're describing Quicksilver's hearing. I wonder if Quicksilver's vision works the same way. This character did tend to perceive time as a sort of "stop motion" in which he could analyze scenes, but he didn't move faster than normal himself.
*X-Men teaching The Avengers to make a proper quicksilver since 2014*
Nop, since 2014
The new quicksilver scene is so much better
0:15 I always assumed Quicksilver's -MP3 player- wakman and headphones were included in his warp field.
The warp field all the speedsters have to have to prevent the various destructive effects of moving withing on Earth at arbitrarily high speeds. (Such as friction heating, sonic boom, compriession heating, crushing whatever they touch, being unable to breathe, relativistic disruptions.)
you got it at the beginning no more thinking
If quicksilver's thought process is faster than a normal humans, that would also explain a lot about his character. Like why he's constantly doing a million things at once, or why he can't really focus for to long compared to other people.

He can kinda deactivate his super speed I think

Actually if you pay attention to the button on his shirt you can tell it switches sides whenever the video cuts for him to write and so we can read it
So basically he is writing normal on a glass wall in front of him but when they edit the video they flip it in order for us to read it
i have a question at one of the seems in that same move,quick silver throws a plate towards a guard ,well his intent was to knock him out but at the speed he is running wouldnt that plate just slice right through the guards head?
If I'm not mistaking quick silver isn't like the flash the flash actually accelerates his body as where as quick silver slows down everything around him and manipulate the things around him, example him being able to run on walls, therefore people perceive him to be fast
He listens to music by being a fictional character existing in a universe alongside magic and superpowers.
True 😂😂
What about the guards? How did Quicksilver not snap their arms off when he moved them that fast?
RELATIVITYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
hey may be fast but he has control as he is aware of how fast he can be
+The Redstoner This guy has best explanation, no other works better
Maybe he can extend the time compression to stuff around him at will?
I was thinking that Quickisilvers power is not hyper speed so much as warp speed. he causes things to be stationary when he moves in relation to him, but he can move things without affecting trajectory or velocity, which means he is not adding energy to anything. For instance whne he moves the bullets across at hyper speed that would cause a large amount of energy altering the angle of flight, but he just moves it across, which suggests he moved it by warping the space around it, and this of course would also explain how he can listen to music because the walkman would occupy his space/time bubble so while everything else slows down the music would not be affected.
I think as Quicksilver runs, he's not only increasing his speed, but also fast time moves for him and things he's touching.
I always always wondered about this too. I'm glad u made the vid Kyle. I also wonder if quicksilver or flash ran across the country would their perception of time feel like they were running for months, even though to us they would seem to get there in a second?? That'd be a boring ass run and you would def need some sped up tunes to pass the time xP
WarMachine425 I think the idea behind the Flash/Quicksilver power is that they can perceive time as they see fit. They could experience a few milliseconds as an hour OR simply get somewhere fast without paying attention. But you're absolutely right, there has to be some limit on this power, because at some running speed you'd have to slow down the world enough that you don't smash into stuff. There would be some limit. Never thought about it that way, thanks!
@magnus maybe it's something similar to something moving near light speed. As something approaches light speed it becomes infinitely more dense in mass. Maybe something similar happens to quicksilvers body when he speeds up as well which might protect him
***** +warmachine425 But remember the universe we're playing in. Before we can even enjoy our mutant fiction, we have to assume that their bodies can handle the powers bestowed to them. It's not that their world is inconsistent, it's that it's consistent in its disregard for biological limitations, which is the whole point. When I dissect things like this I like to say "bend, but don't break, the universe". Otherwise, yes, Quicksilver could not withstand his own power, but where's the fun in that?
WarMachine425 Not a bad theory, but the changes in mass and distance that occur at relativistic speeds are only really noticed when you get up to at least half the speed of light or so if I remember correctly from my college physics courses. Long before then some other factor would have to come into play.
One option that some comic speedsters use is altered time flow, and not just an altered perception of time flow. That is from the speedster's standpoint he's moving at ordinary speeds with ordinary impacts on his legs, but the world is slowed down around him. Water becomes like concrete so he can run on it. It doesn't explain running on a wall and sticking there with centripetal force unless perchance gravity is reduced with the change in time.
Another explanation used for some speedsters is that they generate some kind of force field that protects them from hitting bugs at the speed of sound and somehow reinforces their body as well.
Kyle Hill Which begs the question, if you could perceive time in smaller increments, why would you ever choose to perceive it in real time? A conversation could be hours in slow mo time
couldnt he just listen to a casette thats recorded in 1800 times the normal speed.
the sound quality would probably be crap tho. (if it could produce any sound at all)
+yunthi
Yes. As well as a video tape you have frames per second. The normal is 24 fps. With the sound is the same (there are
like reference points or something) But if you record 1 minute of a film (1440 fps) in one second, you are just going to have 24 fps. So if Quick silver watch this second to be like a minute, he is going to see just 24 different frames during this minute. A audio tape wouldnt have the necessary amount of information in one second to reproduce a whole song.
Francisco .Mora
thought as much. tho you are thinking digital.
audio tape is just a magnetic strip, sortof analog. im thinkin the reader wouldnt be able to pick up any signal at all. with all the magnetic information being too close to eachother, canceling eachother out.
probably.
more akin to blue red and green colors mixing into white on your screen.
Is the same with analogue
Francisco .Mora thats the difference between a video image and an old audio one.
on a sidenote i do remember some video recrders being able to record and play at half speed. true you would only get 24fps if you did play a halfspeed recorded one at a normal speed. but thats television. each frame holding the information of each pixel. and the output is converted to 24fps.
but a casette audio tape doesnt have those limitations. its a magnetic strip, ,and the strip moving under a header that picks up the polarity of that magnetism. and its not ones and zeroes either. the strength can vary as well.
its reading a magnetic wave, it doesnt have data points but a flowing and changing magnetic field (as far as the reader is concerned). the only actual data point is each molecule in the strip.
a casette player does not change information to a color on a pixel. it plays it directly. the diaphragm of the speaker moving according to the magnetism in the strip.
Dude... you was the one who said first that the sound would be lost. I was with you man.
I dont know a lot about audio tho. But i know that this magnetic strip has little squares that are the ones that have the information. obviusly there are more than 24 "sounds" per second but it also has limitations.
Isn't there a comic where it says Quicksilver's talent isn't really speed, but time & gravity distortion? This allows him to move without friction or sonic booms. He can move something without destroying it. Toss people out the window or even jump out himself.
I have always wanted to know this!
I knew that Thor had a second job! I knew it!
wouldn't quicksilver's immense speed create a powerful vacuum in the area he just left as his body is leaving it devoid of air so quickly
+dyndo101 boomsilver
+dyndo101 and since he isn't moving at relative speeds his music would also sound slow. He is moving faster than relative time.
bet it won't even play lol
that's what I think of every time in Assassination Classroom when Koro-sensei moves at Mach 20 in a classroom with 20 kids in there. I think all their heads would implode or explode lol
well in reality it should heat up everything surrounding him to crisp and nobody will survive if he blitz'd past them
There is a quick moment at the end of the kitchen scene where he takes off his head phones. In that moment you can hear a high pitched squeal like a hearing aid would make. This maybe hinting that his music is sped up to match his speed.
100% grateful that @becausescience has developed there own style. Again. Fave a science channel on the you that is tube
