I've been following the channel ever since I first saw the red water baloon a decade ago and I have to say...my now 14 year old son watched this video with me and enjoyed it just as much as I did. I think their way of presentation hasn't changed since then, aside from that Hollywood production series they did once...which was also nice because we got many videos in a short timeframe, but they weren't as interesting as the "i shoot or explode something in a quarry and you film it" or "i throw something at you or you drop onto something and i film it" video which they are best at in my opinion. =)

Wtf, I was literally too thinking about atmospheric pressure behind the glass! The faster the bullet, the more pressure because the air particles has less time to escape, but also the water is much thicker so the bullet needs to be faster. It's multi-variable function that's all not in favor for the bullet so a super-forecful one is needed to bypass the "threshold" where it breaks, or like Dan suggested, just shoot at a less steep angle.

@TwinShards

We both have different answer and wonder which one is right... I think it didn't break because the water absorbed the impact and vibration right after the bullet hit so all the energy was transfert through the water right away instead of spreading through the glass entirely. edit: come to think of it i think the answer is a mix of both 😂

I think the glass didn't break mainly because the water in the tank actually held it together. I noticed a small moment of cavitation between the water and glass which should be a temporary vacuum created by the glass moving faster than the water could flow. This would mean atmospheric pressure on the outside of the glass and vacuum on the inside creating a "split-second Rupert's drop" scenario. I would love to see a video exploring how much impact it would take to overcome this

Also Aquarium glass is held together with silicone, which holds some elasticity and gives the glass some leeway to absorb an impact without breaking, I would assume.

As per usual, Dan nails skimshot on first try. Legend.

9:32 That quick little look of confusion at a still very intact fish tank was gold!

I admit not watched all way through so probably already mentioned BUT . Really great example of ground effect. First shot just before the bullet hits the water about 10mm off you can see the bullet change attitude and nose up before it hits the water. Conclusion that the process of bullet skip off water starts before it’s even hit it. Great footage guys .

Absolutely amazing to see results you'd never set out to be testing in the first place. Like, I don't think they'd set out with the hypothesis that a 9mm would do what it did in this video (staying vague for spoilers) and then set up to film that. It was an accidental discovery while already successfully filming a skipping bullet. Also, amazing shots, in both sense of the word, from Gav and Dan in this. They continue to amaze me with every video.

"a 50 caliber would smash the whole tank just with pressure" Gav and Dan teasing their next video? God I hope so.

I'm in LOVE with dan's reaction to the bullet getting stopped in the glass tank. So good

I am now very interested in seeing how a supersonic round at full spin travels through water.

Amazing video, love to see the glass being able to absorb that much energy

When the bullet hit the glass, you could see the shockwave going through the seal between the two panes, and I was like, "oh shoot, that's gonna break apart soon!" But it survived! The Star Trek analogy was spot on! "The structural integrity is holding, captain!"

Ive been watching the slow mo guys since I was in high school. I am now 24.

The impossible math question!! With out saying what age you were in high school, we don’t know how long you have been watching us.

Every time I get depressed I watch this channel. Helps me forget

YOU guys are the best! Your calming, pleasant ..Your videos are super entertaining...thanks for all your hard wotk...

I like that I get a MythBusters fix from your channel guys. Thank you.

This is a really good demo of why impact craters are always circular. Despite the low glancing angle, note how the bulk of the water is displaced more or less spherically. Strange things happen when something hits something else very fast!

This is what i was wondering about in this video! You could see the water that was displaced by the bullet moving through it was a thin small line splashing up the sides and doesn't really affect the water under the surface much. It's the same type of water displacement you'd expect from a speeding boat with a very pointy bow. But then you see after it leaves there's this invisible impact force blasting a sphere into the depths of the water and I'm sitting thinking "where did that energy come from?!" With normal water displacement you expect that the water pushed aside from the bullet will com crashing back into itself to fill the gap, and that would generate an upward splashing effect, like the kind you see when you drop a large rock into water. We also know the bullet hit with a lot of speed, and the faster the speed of the object, the higher the impact force it makes. With the amount of energy absorption we see from the water (the mentioned 30% speed loss in the video) I expected to see some sort of impact force in front of the bullets trajectory. as the water recoiled from absorbing that energy. But instead we see this perfectly circular blast that originated from the back of the trail, and it happens well after the bullet has already left the water?! I have so many questions! Why is the impact perfectly spherical? Why does it form at the entry point? Why does it take so long for it to happen? WHY?! This is so weird and interesting!

When I was in the Marine Corps I was stationed with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit we were out in the Pacific and did a night shoot with 50s and watching the rounds Ricochet off the ocean into the sky was amazing

Seen that while I was in the navy was well, it's quite a sight. 5 inch shells also ricochete, but at best you only see the splashes, it's a bit fun trying to guess where the next splash will be and how many splashes, saw one shell bounce 8 times

that 9mm shot looks fantastic. really shows the normalisation of rounds/shells when hitting a target or armour

dan has such a good aim, it's amazing

There was a moment in the slowmo of the first shot, where the splash above the water and the displacement in the water formed a near perfect sphere. That was absolutely amazing to see.

Dan has some amazing accurate shooting in all history of this channel, amazing video as always.

Dan is a fantastic shot, good on him.

Your enthusiasm towards gathering data is infectious

After seeing the disturbance of the water, I’d love to see footage of different rounds being fired just above the surface of the water. It would be interesting to see differences between various velocities, calibers, and bullet shapes. Thanks for the awesome videos guys!

Plus, I was hoping for a final shot late enough into the water to actually break the glass. :)
