Hey there! This one was a lot of fun to make! Ever since the lawn mower video I've been wanting to do this, and I've been working on it all week. Thank you for those of you who support us on Patreon! You bring stability to my family's life. My goal is to be a light during this time. www.patreon.com/smartereveryday
I know the world is a bit crazy at the moment. I wish you and your family peace and love. Spread the love and help others where you can. Look for the positive stories of people coming together in unity and try to amplify them.
There's a lot of disinformation at the moment so if you recall what we learned together in the social media disinformation series, think twice before you share something!
Warm Regards,

Your happy curiosity (and excellent cameraman) is an endless source of satisfying videos.
I was surprised with the sound of the slomos, there's some very accurate sound design work there!
Same here, the sound design took the production to a different level.
Hope the slo mo guys will do that too
Yeah, those are aren't the real sounds, right? It wouldn't seem possible to get rid of the engine noise. I'm guessing they just found some decent samples and added reverb. They did sound very nice though so props there!
@@BoozhiOfficial slomo sound is recorded and produced separately. If the original audio was slowed down at the same scale of the video then the pitch would be below our audible range several times over.
What he possibly did was record a few things like swinging the plastic cord slowly, shaking a chain link fence, hitting vegetables, etc... slowed them down and pitched them down slightly and then added a lot of reverb.
And that's exactly why they call them foley 'artists' and give them Academy Awards. :)

Personally I would prefer to hear the real audio, even though it would be a mess of low-pitch engine noises.

I think he said the phantoms don’t record audio at all so all high speed footage shot with these cameras need sound effects.

Seeing the weed eater's "cable" disintegrate all the time made me realise that we have small plastic particles everywhere in our gardens.
Hoping those strings are biodegradable somehow or they should really make it so.
Goes along with all the little plastic particles in the rivers. And the ocean. And the animals. And us.
Feel free to use a scythe.
Generally trimmer string is made of nylon which isn't biodegradable. Biodegradable plastics wouldnt hold up to the abuse of trimmer string.

Hey Destin, love your videos! Kudos for the physics analysis on so much everyday stuff, I can't get enough of your videos.
I was wondering if you can please make a video where you're analyzing the physics of a scythe compared to a weed eater. My grandpa taught me how to scythe, and while the learning curve is very tough, the efficiency and speed of a scythe is way better than a weed eater. I was just wondering how it looks from a physicist's point of view.
Cheers!

Destin these videos are great. I’m enjoying the landscaping videos you’ve done as of late. I’ve landscape for years and there some things that happen I’d love to see you be able to do. We use to have guys run over ground stakes in the ground with push mowers and I’d love to see what happens to the blade and the mower as it strikes the stake. Thanks for all your hard work on all your videos Destin
All those years of weed wacking and knowing all these things happen and how to prevent them, but never knowing how exatcly they happen. Super cool dude!
The sound guy is absolutely amazing. ^^ Those slomo sounds.
Was just coming down to the comments to ask if a foley artist creates these incredible sounds for the video. Guess I got my answer.
Every time I hear slow mo audio, I can’t help thinking about how there’s a guy that makes up all the sounds.

Lots of hard work went into the sounds! Great job!
He has a video on the sound design for his slow motion footage.
On a side note, did you know that the word 'footage' meaning a section of video came from the days of film? When you asked if someone had footage of an event or scene, they were asking do you have a couple of feet of film of the event? This was shortened to footage. (I only found this out a few days ago, still amazed about it).

"95 thousandths of an inch"
Most of the world: w-what?
It's beyond me why anyone would consider that a superior unit of measurement over millimeters. I don't even bother trying to convert it anymore, as soon as thousandths of an inch are mentioned by anyone I just phase out.
it always annoys me that americans use fractions over decimal points...
plus the fact that he's an engineer but uses imperial like that would be relevant to anyone/anything
had the same thing. If I calculated it correctly, it's 2.41mm
As an American I am confused as well
@@proxy1035 Engineers faced with English units use thou or mils. As shown in the video...
Can you try cutting pine cones? I feel like I go through more string when I’m under pine trees than when I’m in open field.
So, I was just starting the video thinking I could do other stuff while it was running in the background - I mean, weed eaters how interesting can that be?! Apparently I was wrong - I will now look at my own weed eater with renewed interest (and I want a high speed camera too).

Eric Then proceeds to give imperial measurements...
In this case it goes to reproducibility. Since the tools used are being documented.
Destin: "It feels more like science if we take some measurements."
*Uses imperial measurements*
Metric measurements: "Am I a joke to you?"
It never fails to amaze me that there still exists a country that does not use the same metric system which literally the whole rest of the world uses. I fail to see how it gives them any competitive advantage. Same with being the only country that refuses to put numerals on their coins and where their sizes make no sense. Where floors of buildings are counted from 1 when they should be counted from 0 like everywhere else.
@@SunRabbit Come on now, how can you have a zero floor; that makes no sense.
@@bluto212 The Ground Floor is usually not explicitly numbered "0", but usually has a name, like the Erdgeschoss (in Germany) or Prizemi (in Czech Republic) and other countries have different names, obviously. Generally, to leave a building, press the elevator button with a letter instead of a number. Basements are almost always numbered as -1, -2 and so on even though I have seen them named as Kellergeschoss (in Germany) or Suteren (in Czech Republic). Depends on the building, I guess. In Europe, the first floor ABOVE the ground floor is always numbered "1" whereas in the US it's always numbered "2."
@@SunRabbit Don't get lost
@@bluto212 imagine being so stupid that you can't understand the concept of having a ground floor smh 😔✌️
The sounds I heard during the slo-mo…kinda satisfying tbh
Your sound effect guy need a Golden Globe, or Emmy or something. Amazing audio and video too!
Destin, could you do a tension-elongation test to see how much this material stretches before it shows a plastic deformation and until what point it will show an elastic deformation. With this info, the rotations per minute you could calculate the angle at which the plastic string is being pulled and calculate the forces that apply to the string.
Furthermore you could measure the time it takes the strong to rotate around the fence, where it can be seen as immobile. With the rpm of the weed eater you can also calculate the elongation of the string.
Basically with the phantom you've built a visual tension-elongation measurement device.
Shear forces should apply in that case. You've basically got 2 points of failure at least: 1 the impact weakens the plastic string. If the string isn't being broken by the impact, the smallest diameter of the plastic string no carries the weight of the weeed eater pull. After lowering the diameter, tension with a sheer force is being built up until the elastic deformation changes into a plastic deformation which leads to material failure.
Another potential weakening of the string lies in the fact that the string is curled up and therefore shows inner tensions. As we know, inner tensions do get released when heat is applied. This heat is created upon impact with the fence. Basically you use the impact of the string to straighten it out a little and release some of the material tension.
There are so many more things I have on my mind right now but due to me being German, it is hard to explain everything on my smartphone in a CZcams comment.
Greetings from a German mechanical (Diplom-) engineer in the field of material science, compound technology and damage analysis.
If you want a super interesting topic, I can hit you up with a machine that I've built that replaces a multi-million dollar machine with something that can be self made for 50 bucks. It's for measuring the surface tension of EVERY surface or surface coating. 😁

I just had an idea while checking out some knives online. It would be awesome if you could make a video similar to this comparing different knife sharpening techniques (wet stone, pull through, honing steel, etc) with some close-ups of the knife blades after sharpening to help settle the debacle around pull-through sharpeners causing damage to knives and which steels chip more often, are harder to sharpen, etc

I really like the sound effects when cutting the grass in slow motion. Great work, whoever made those 👍
I was wandering that. Is it added in the post editing or did the camera actually record that?
Vinny they can’t record in slow motion so it’s essentially foley artists making sound effects for it.
I noticed that as well, after seeing other videos on how they make the sounds for slow mo videos, I’m always extra appreciative of nice sounds for these clips because I know someone spent time making it that way, not a by product of slowing down the footage. Awesome!
The guy who does Destin's slow-mo sound effects is a music artist name is A Shell in the Pit; he did the soundtrack for the game Rogue Legacy. Check out his bandcamp page-I've loved his work since hearing his song Trilobyte. Destin's also got two videos where the guy is showcased and they talk about his process of figuring out "psychoacoustics", which is about how people expect, perceive, and experience sounds.
MomNPopCopyShop wow, I’ll have to check out those videos. Also, what a great game Rogue Legacy is 🙏😂
Awesome footage, thanks for sharing
I like the snippet you tucked in there @14:35 got me to sub.
“Looks like it’s about 95 thousand of an inch”
Me: Laughs in millimetres
A millimeter is just a thousandth of a meter
My brain hurt when he said these utterly ridiculous measurements. How can anybody in his right mind think that is a good way to measure stuff.
Why dont they just make a miliinch?
its funny, even as an american I hear about thousands of an inch, and it feels like some arbitrary measurement that I can't scale in my mind to other things outside of that sample. But if I hear the measurement in millimetres I have no problems.
I definitely prefer metric but the hurdle that america would struggle with more than any other is switching from measuring distance in miles to kilometres the average Joe has no idea of the "feel" of traveling in kilometres because the only time they would have to understand it (outside of hiking) is when talking to a foreigner.
Which was preceded by "it feels more like science if we take some measurements". it really did feel like science
When it's 4:46AM and I should've gone to sleep hours ago..
HOW WEED EATERS WORK
