Checkout the Behind the Scenes video of Gordon making the sounds. It's pretty ridiculous.

I can't see it!
Can you make a Euler's disk in slow motion and explain it?
What program(s) does he use for audio creating and editing?
SmarterEveryDay It sucks that the sound is not real!
Hey Dustin, I'm working overseas and when I return I need to find a place in the USA to live. My options are open and I've worked with 3 people from Huntsville AL and they recommend it. What are your thoughts for a comm-electronics guy moving there?
Gordon is so funny. 5:42 _"I'm not gonna actually use a tomato, and there's a technical reason for that...and that's because I looked in the fridge and I didn't have a tomato"_ 😂😂
I laughed so hard at this... :D
haha, Gordon is hilarious.
"Believe it or not, I was one of the smart kids at school"
"technical" reason XD
To be fair, you shouldn't store tomatoes in the fridge to begin with because they'll lose their taste that way. They're preserved best at temperatures slightly below room temperature, so around 16-18 degrees Celcius.
Orange is the new tomato
1984 worthy, lol
Of course it's not MinuteEarth without a Pun XD
wrong, ask xkcd
Im a fan anyway nice joke
Heyy Dustin ●♤☆
I want to ask u why can i blow hot and cold air ?
And why do it feels cold when i put my arm in the fast wind from the car ? Isn't thats how the asteroids get burnd ?
"Belive it or not, I ... I was one of the smart kids in school" totally made my day :'D
C'mon man really? You really must have a simple life.
Sucrose nothing wrong with simplicity as you can see from this video
I lost it at that comment
Is that a vsauce profile?
@@SIDEWINDER37 it is a vsauce profile picture. You can find it in the video about the museum on the moon.
Whaaaaa
It's all fake? I've been made fool this whole time?
Look into foley. It’s gonna blow your mind.
Calenc you should watch the DVD extras on some films. Sound guys are always making up overdubs using different objects.
@@steveo6016 but this isn't a fictional movie

Dat tomato sounds like an orange
Ress best comment so far...
Actaully if you listen closely, it is only half an orange.
because it's a fruit
Aye stop talking about my friend that just died on set
Orange ? sounds very Annoying.
get that ? ( ✧≖ ͜ʖ≖)
Never really appreciated the work that went into creating the sound. Well done
A similar process is done in films and cartoons too. Not just when it's slowmotion. It's definitely a craft.
Stinger01 I'll add to censtudios' comment. Pretty much anything you hear in a movie was created in after effects from wind blowing to footsteps and explosions. There's a cool behind the scenes video of cloudy with a chance of meatballs you can check out. I'll try and find a link
Stinger01 czcams.com/video/UO3N_PRIgX0/video.html
Awesome, thanks for the link
It's an entire process. Gordon and I have developed a workflow over the years for both music and slowmo sounds. Here is his sound reel: czcams.com/video/aBo6Hq6tFvI/video.html
More Gordon, please! He's got a really great personality, and he was an awesome part of this video. You should feature him more if possible.
“When we want to record sound for a slow motion tomato using an orange is far superior... because I don’t have a tomato. That would result in silence.”
Oh. My. God. I have been asking this for YEARS. I have always assumed it was all post-production foley studio work. The thing that always made me doubt it was that EVERY slow mo video somehow has these effects.
I'm glad we finally set your mind at ease. It's important you watch the banana video. We're going to show the stretched sound relations.
Yeah it is common trope, sloww motion video has to have a sound. Even though the real sound would be way off because it travels so slowly compared to light.
+NetAndyCz when your talking about the speed of sound over the speed of light at a few feet it can't be THAT much of a delay.
Yeah like tf since when can everyone edit so good?
Almost every video includes syncing the sound back up though, and syncing that back up would be a simple job of delaying the vidio a few milliseconds.
Gordon's pretty awesome and definitely needs to be in more of your videos.
I find his style of dead pan humor to be unique and refreshing.
Too bad he's (in a best-case scenario) roughly 1000 miles away.

I'm so glad I learned this today. Makes me appreciate Foley/Sound Design all the more and how it makes the viewing experience so much better. It's kind of like in theater, where you don't fire real guns and use props and sound effects to make it real. Sure, it'll break the suspension of disbelief for some people but a willing imagination can appreciate the craft.
Orange used for tomato squish sounds. This is why i have trust issues.
LOL

😫
you would be terrified to know what strange things are used to make sounds of stuff that is completly something else
I feel so lied to
Well, what do you think the TV and film industry have been doing for the past one hundred years?
this isn’t called faker every day
Mich Rain Thing is that everybody knows this about the film industry and everyone knows everything (story, characters etc.) are fictional too and not real. This channel seemd like their slowmos would be somewhat real and partially "scientific"
HGGdragon You said it perfectly, I'm not mad or anything, just goes to show that they do a really good job at making it so convincing.
Science is a liar sometimes.

When I saw the title I was expecting it to be some sort of technical explanation for the process of recording slow sound, but it turns out it's 🍊
Just to make a few seconds of sound effects really requires hours of hard work. Thank you Destin and Gordon. Appreciate all the effort made with your videos.
Answer to the video's question - fake it.
Why is your CZcams channel full of nude oily man butts ? Not complaining…
Huh... fake sound. Well that makes more sense
Rohit Raghunathan For a science based channel it seems a bit deceiving for there not to be a at least a mention or note about that on all his slow motion videos. A lot of people don't realize those are false sounds.
+Dave M You can't exactly accuse him of deception when he makes a full video explaining the process, considering that every slowmo video we've ever seen was also probably edited the same way. There's probably a few videos on youtube explaining it if anyone was curious. Personally, I didn't really think that much about it.
You're right, but I should clarify that I meant unintentionally deceiving.
"Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story."
Exactly - just a little note for disclosure would go a long way.
I never would have thought the sounds weren't recorded live. Great content, keep it up. Favorite channel by far.
This is so great. I love that you hired on a fellow Canadian as your sound guy. I know all the work that it takes to get sound right, and I foresee him putting in large amounts of work into the sound for your slomo videos, so huuuuge kudos to him! :)
short answer: you dont record it
dude, u have a great taste too
@Neil Armstrong bro, i dont speak weeb, do u know wtf they're saying?
Neil Armstrong I used to speak it, I’ll try to translate. “Naruto dragon ballz and attack on titans hentai”. It may be a little off but it’s close
But why?
Yeah, Destin the click baiter :)
ie "How to fake slow motion sound"
Yeah, as they will talk about in the next video, recording slow motion sound is impossible (or at least useless), so yes, the sound is fake. The sound is also fake in most nature documentaries
I've wondered about this subject for a while and never really researched it. But I'm kind of shocked at the truth!
Perhaps a more genuine (for lack of a better word) approach, and a more in-field friendly one, would be microphone arrays that would record sound from different positions of the scene being captured. These mics would then record at multiple levels and with high and low pass filtering, for example.
On my channel I film explosions in no-so-slow-mo. An approach like this might allow us little guys to filter out or extenuate some bits of the sound stage with minimal post processing and would use the actual sounds?
Peace, Love and Guns Unfortunately that probably still wouldn't be of much use. No matter the quality of sound you've recorded, even at extremely high sample rates, slowing footage down more than a few times becomes essentially unusable. They don't sound like anything to our ears as we've mashed the frequency down so low and slowed it in the process. The footage here was slowed by a factor of roughly 1:600 000. Slowing audio down by even a factor of 1:5 or 1:10 sounds horrible (try it yourself). You can imagine that slowing it by 1:600 000 would be significantly more horrible. Great idea though!
Yep, as with most video based media, the majority of the sound is faked. Our brains like to have sounds to go with things, even if there really shouldn't be much of a sound to it, and even if the sound isn't accurate. Heck, it's actually kind of fun to go to a movie and try to pick out all the sounds that shouldn't actually be there, but are anyway just because they wanted a sound to give something more of an impact or some such. It's a thing that we enjoy as people, whether it makes sense or not.
It's recorded at 60,000 fps and played at 20 fps, so the ratio would be more like 1:3,000
Amazing video. Gordon is an awesome sound guy. Very professional. Some people may not know. But this is how alot of movies if not all of them are made. Film the action with a high quality camera then lay over the audio afterwards with high quality sounds.
So glad I found the Spotify link to Gordon aka A Shell In The Pit. Some very creative work he's got there!
Slowmo will never be same again
Dumb af
If I've learned anything from the 99% invisible podcast, it's that most nature and sports documentaries have the majority of their sounds engineered because you can't get the mic close enough. After hearing the work involved, I'm ok with it as it helps enhance the visual performance
Very nice one, thanks!
Believe it or not, but I watch almost every youtube video (any channel) without sound (exception for music performances of course). Really liked the sub-titles on this one! Needless to say I'll be re-watching (and re-re-watching) this one with sound.
Didn't get me smarter this time, because it is in my line of work and interest, but enjoyed it very much.
Love the channel, love Destin, love Gordon.. but it broke my friggin' heart to find out all of the sounds are manufactured. Smarter Every Day will never be the same again Q_Q
yep :( Planet Earth is also unwatchable due to the fake sounds used.
@@diox8tony you do understand there wouldn't be any sound right?
@@diox8tony you can play back recorded sounds at a slow speed by a record player or cassette tape, just our cameras today can slow the image but can't slow the sound being recorded digitally.
@@whitbayles8773 that's not the reason. Digital recordings can be slowed down just as easily. The problem with super slow motion video is that the sound is pitched down so low it would drop below our hearing range.
Same with slo Mo guys buddy
6:35 wow the ps2 startup screen sounds great.
I don''t understand this joke.. :(
SylvesterPryncer it just sounds like the PlayStation 2 startup screen.
czcams.com/video/TXYVHOxhuYc/video.html
Toastalicious oh yeah. What an observation. Kudos
SO... then the real question is. How WOULD you record the actual sound in slow motion?
It is possible with good software. It would take the sound waveform (which is linear displacement over time) convert it into a frequency spectrum over time (basically for each microsecond, show which frequencies are heard) then stretch the frequency spectrum graph by however much you want to slow the video by, lets assume 1000x. Now you have a graph the roughly shows for every millisecond which frequencies can be heard in the final video. Convert the graph back to a sound waveform and you have slowed down sound without changing the frequency!
BTW The conversion is done by using the Fourier Transform (for sound to spectrum) and it's Inverse (for spectrum to sound)
A really fast ADC.
So instead of sampling at the usual sound rates(under 200kHz), you sample much faster, like a few MHz.
Nick Brand but stretching it more than 800%??? This is multiple thousands slower, that's a huge difference though!
You wouldn't use Fourier transform but wavelet transform. But the phase relations between the frequencies will be lost even then, so sharp clicks for example won't come out naturally, I think.
The true answer is that you cant. Especially as slow as these videos are shot. All real recorded sounds slowed to match the speed of the videos would be far far too low for human ears to hear. The only option is to add sound effects.
Wow so many people including me have always taken sound for granted, when it comes to these type of videos. To make noises and then project them in synchronized succession to a visual image for the purpose of complimenting each other is amazing. Its not a task its an art if you ask me. I will never look at a slo mo video the same again
Pure genius!! What a great result when TWO such geniuses collaborate on a project!! Dang this is good., Thanks again
For those that think there is a good alternative to faking the sound, you have to first understand how sound works. Frequency is the number of wavelengths that pass the observer each second. We hear frequencies between roughly 20hz-20khz. Now if you're recording at 5k times faster speeds(60fps x 5k = 300kfps, only about half what he said the camera could record at) and playing back(20khz/5k=4hz, too low to hear), you've lost all of the audible information. Your options are fake sound, no sound or play music.... I like the fake sounds.
Votalis this is one of the reasons!
ashellinthepit I appreciate all the work that goes into creating this, as a live sound technician myself, I find the creativity involved and attention to detail very impressive! Great job!
6:15 "believe it or not I was one of the smart kids in school" this dude is so funny
Great video! :D
Gordon's work creates really amazing effects!
Soooo good. I always wondered. I though they were produced but know I know! Thanks!
Sound design is one of the weirder departments in filmmaking but it's so fun 😂
Pays pretty good to. If your a member of the MPEG as a Foley artist you can expect at least $2000 a week while on a project.
I was so happy to see another video and then saw it was on a really interesting topic!
Movie Magic! Outstanding work. Thanks for the transparency.
Now that I've seen the process, it does make sense. In the provided example with the rifle you "heard" the gun go off first, then saw the bullet go by. But in actuality that bullet is traveling some multiple of the speed of sound, and would go by long before we heard it. So it being dubbed does make a lot of sense.
Those M-90 fireworks just have a tiny firecracker inside if you take them apart :)
Experimental Fun yeah they are not nearly as strong as a real m80 either. They make a bunch of versions to make people believe that they are are stronger by putting random numbers at the end. I had an m-800 and was pretty much a firecracker. According to Wikipedia, real m80s have about 50 times more gun powder.
Lmao i was waiting for the boom..
But it turned out to be a pop :(
Experimental Fun I've blown up some m-80s before and they're more than three times bigger than that explosion
Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth shattering kaboom.
+Experimental Fun "Don't light it off, take it apahhhht"
For fun i looked up that camera. It costs 150,000 dollars. WOW....
buckyluckyou for someone like him that 150k was a great investment. Although I hope he didn’t have to pay it all at once
People usually rent these cameras.
Probably sponsored
Well you only need to kidnap 60 people and steal their kindeys. Then you can buy it
i think they sharing it with the slow mo guys
As a sound engineer, and science lover, this is so satisfying and intriguing! Thanks, Destin! 😎
I already knew how the sounds were made, so Gordon was the highlight of this. The dude is seriously funny!
sounds are fake, noooooooo......
I always thought they were made in post production. And i was right :) thanks for the video Destin!
Wow... i never really gave the audio a second thought, amazing!!
I swear I had this question about infrosound in my head since the first time I saw your videos! Thanks for answering, bro!
I love Gordon. I never knew he was missing from my life.And a birthday tomato.
I fricken love Gordon!
He's absolutely brilliant. One of the "smart kids at school" for sure.

I really learned something new today and i don't think i will ever listen to a slow motion video the same way again :D
Awesome sound work! I'd personally do a little less reverb though :D
Thank you for sharing your process, Gordon!
I typed in “EXTREME SALSA MAKING” and this is where I end up... learning!
Ron Klaiss Why would you even type that ?
I dunno why, but this struck me as exceptionally funny. Laughed for like 30 seconds... Thank you
That is the exact question I was going to type... Whyyyy were you typing that inn the first place?
surprised william osman didnt show up. hes literally done extreme salsa making
This is Foley for slow motion!! Foley is the process we use in film making to recreate everyday sounds and add it to the audio of a film so everything sounds natural... Footsteps, rainfall, sound of an air conditioner etc... This is so interesting!!
It is pretty obvious but it does enhance the experience! Thank you for your work Gordon :D
M-80's and M-90's use magnesium fuses. Once lit, magnesium can burn even under water.n M-90's are not anywhere near as powerful as an M-80. M-90's are a louder firecracker.
Yeah, millennial firecrackers I guess......
To be fair, he's not an expert. Like he said, they're very illegal here in Kanastan: though most kids have seen one in their lives it's probably only one in ten of us actually lit one off.
And maybe less for the younger generation: used to be if you got caught they confiscated them. Now you're charged with "importing a prohibited explosive device" which is basically the same charge as if you tried to bring a 1000lb bomb across the boarder, so I'd never even consider it today,
Back in "The Day" in the US, you could buy actual M-80s. Later, they were illegal, but you COULD get them from Mexico, as was alluded to in the video. A friend of mine, when he was a kid, along with a friend of his, put one of the real ones in the milk box on the porch of the folks across the street from his house. Then they ran back to their house and watched. The explosion destroyed the milk box, blew out the front windows of the house, and actually lifted the roof over the porch somewhat, causing some structural as well as cosmetic damage. Needless to say, he and his buddy ended up working that whole summer to earn the money to pay for the repairs.
Real M-80s were quite dangerous. You would never light one in your own garage. Seriously. NEVER.
Then there were real Cherry Bombs. Again, by the time I was a kid, they were illegal in the US. However, a friend's big brother went to Mexico, and brought back a half a gross (72) of them. We managed to talk him out of a dozen or so of them. These, too, were quite impressive. The first one we lit, we simply laid on the ground, and placed a coffee can over. (One of the "real" steel coffee cans). The top (what was actually the bottom) of the can blew free of the cylinder of the can, and went three telephone pole heights up into the air. The cylinder went about 2 telephone pole heights up. When it all came down, there we a number of small holes "shot through" the steel cylinder part! Those were from pieces of pea gravel that had obviously been accelerated to enough velocity to blow holes through the steel! We immediately realized that we had NOT been far enough away from the cherry bomb.
About another half dozen, we used in various safer ways, including tossing into a river. Their fuses do, indeed burn under water, and they sink. Pretty amazing results!
However, foolishly, my friend took the other half dozen to school with him. Naturally, kids talked him out of some of them, and those were all deployed in the school in various places. Several were lit in hallway trash cans during passing periods, and the way one experienced one of those was that you didn't actually hear it go off. Instead, you were instantly deafened, and then your ears rang for a good 24 hours afterwards.
One was flushed down a toilet on the 3rd floor of the building. It went off down at basement level, where it destroyed some of the sewer lines (inside the building). And, as reported by several people, geysers of toilet water blew out of the toilets that were on that same "branch" of sewage piping on all three floors. Reports I got from eyewitnesses said it hit the ceilings in all of those bathrooms.
Upon interrogation (this was back when corporal punishment was common, and most certainly in use at this school) the guilty kids fingered my friend as having been the source of the cherry bombs. He hadn't lit any at school, but he should have known what was going to happen. Anyhow. Two weeks' suspension for him.
While not readily available these days, true M-80s, Silver Salutes, and Cherry Bombs were pretty amazing. Definitely capable of causing serious injury, or potentially death if not respected. I'm not sure how we all lived through our childhoods, but darn, we had some serious fun, and mostly turned out to be tech nerds!
Foreal. His face that close to an m80

You know that Dustin (or someone from the team) has made the Closed Captions right? CZcams didn't think and interpret the sounds.
@@HarshDoshiTheHarsh Actually, there are automated CC programs built into some video players. I don't know if this is how CZcams does CC, but some people on Twitch use a CC plug-in when they live stream because obviously, you can't predict what will happen and what is said. I think for stuff like this, you can edit and/or upload hand-made CC subtitles, but they can also be automatically created.
@@moogle68 Yeah, of course, but automated CC appear differently, each word appearing with the spoken words. Here, the CC is pre-made into English, clearly.

So... Foley AF
Definite Mick Foley vibe though he's a little bit saner. Just a little bit though.
He ment Foley as in the process of making sound effects for movies using real props
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foley_(filmmaking)
This both astounded me and gutted me about the sounds being made up, but the work involved and reasoning makes sense.
Give it up for audio engineers this time round
I didn't know anything about superslow motion and sound until now. So cool!
I always thought that the sounds were total bs. Did I miss the explanation for the reason the sounds can not be recorded in the first place? I would guess that sound waves are so large and slow. AWESOME VIDEO!
Pretty much what you said; you're stretching out a sound enormously thin, so much so that you wouldn't hear any of it even if the camera was capable of recording audio.
Say you're recording something at 50,000 FPS, and have a microphone recording at 48,000 Hz, and you will be watching this new FPS at 24FPS, 50,000FPS(Sample rate)/24(Playback rate) = 2000 seconds of footage. 2000/48,000 hz = 0.04hz per second; the sound would be completely unusable.
your explanation is a bit unclear to me, but your statement is right.
when you watch a video, that was recorded in 50.000 fps, in 24 fps, then youre watching it 50.000/24=2000 TIMES slower. it's got nothing to do with seconds at this point.
Indeed most microphones record at 48000 Hz samples, but you can only hear sounds between 20 and 20.000 Hz. So any sound you could hear divided by that same 2000 times results in a sound that is far out of your hearing range. For example 10.000Hz (already ridiculously high frequency) divided by 2000 = 5 Hz. This is such a ridiculously low frequency that if you were to hear it in any way, it would sound more like a rhythm than a sound, as 5Hz (5 samples a second) equals 300bpm (5*60=300 beats per minute).
And ofcourse such a stretched out sound wave wont even be able to be played by speakers as theyre not made for that.
Colorado Native Films he said next video he will explain it
Kalkaanuslag I'd be curious to hear that, let's say, 5Hz sound. Moving it to audible spectrum shouldn't be a problem and I believe, that it would also be possible to "fill the gaps" by some computing. It would also be interesting to record and take apart same sounds recorded in various environments (gasses, fluids)
Look up frequency domain and FFT.
Cool! Dude, does great work!
Haha yall just need a supercut of the behind the scenes weird editing stuff like this and itll be a hit. That reaction gordon had from squishing the orange was awesome!
You have a foley expert working with you! This is awesome!
Wow you gotta love the fact that this guy has to imagine how someone might think something would sound in slow mo and actually create it
These past years have been a lie...
He's mentioned many times that he has someone create the slomo sounds
This makes a lot of sense given the numerous slow motion explosions that Dustin has graciously provided us in the past... but I had always assumed there would be some mechanism that allowed for at least rudimentary acoustic capture. I've seen audio be recorded and transmitted with a laser beam before. This makes me wonder if you could record and then play back audio at a high capture rate using the deflection of light through a high speed camera?
That music before the credits was beautiful. Also, good work
I’m glad you kept “exploding tomato “ in the title 😂😂😂
I can't unsee this.
Destin, if anyone can do a deep dive into the tech and the science to figure out if it’s possible to record sound in a way that it CAN be played back slowly, it’s you. The world needs a video for THAT! God bless, dude!
You need a microphone with a very high sample rate which is sensitive to very high frequencies, I would say that it’s definitely technically feasible
That’s freakin awesome. Never would have thought or known the sound wasn’t the actual sound of the tomato popping. So interesting. Your videos are great. 😆
I’m so happy to see a collab with these two teams! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Heismyrock3 your profile pic is strange... Marry me
Exodarion lol thanks for the....compliment?? I’m married already, though, so sorry my strange face can’t marry you 😂
I totally thought I was gonna learn how to do this on my page lol it’s so complicated!
ikr
It gets less complicated when you start making a living doing that.
Love this response
Experiment experiment experiment, practice practice practice!
Not that complicated... research DAWs, sound design, check out DAW subreddits and ask specific questions, also layer sounds for more detail
Thank you, whoever made the subtitles.
I watched your lawn mower segment, I just don't know why and now I've been watching a couple of your videos.
ah the art of Foley, love it.
It's no longer magic, now i can't listen to this sounds without wondering how they were made.
It's a new kind of magic
It's a wonderful kind of magic.
Sound from microphone is sampled at 44.1Khz which easily captures audible ranges upto 20 Khz. High speed cameras are designed to capture lots of video frames in a second which gathers lots of frames per second. When we play them it appears slow motion because lots of frames are now playing per second as we all know. The case of sound is a bit different, if we sample lots of millions of samples of sound per second and then play it with normal digital to analog converter of 44.1Khz it will appear as a wierd low frequency sound.
This was great! Thanks for sharing.
This entire video without mentioning the words Foley artist. Impressive.
Simon Juul Foley is a specific job under the sound design umbrella, and we are not doing Foley. Foley is specifically recorded in real-time to picture, played in on a big screen in a Foley-specific studio.
ashellinthepit I see. Well TIL.
this is why slow mo guy's video have its own music when do watch slow motion video
it's just edited in later. They probably took some stock sfx, slowed them down slightly and matched them up with the video.
I think (not sure) that Gavin does most of those. Not sure on his sources for the sounds.
no offense to this sound designer but gavin's sfx is better imo. these are a bit too echo-y for my liking.
That is way cool, it's fascinating to understand how it is added later.
From Canada ... good thing you narrowed it down......
