This one’s actually sorta easy for anyone to recreate. It’s not the glass that caused the flash but the pressure generated between the two spheres. You can actually burn a piece of paper of you hold it up and clap two steel balls together with your hands due to the mass being transferred into a tiny spot causing extreme but temporary heats. At those speeds and mass I can only imagine that spot was temporarily the temperature of the surface of the sun.

The thing is - that's something you can get with spheres in general. Because when you strike two hard spherical objects into each other, there is only the SMALLEST point of actual contact between them at the edge of the curve, and that instigates a moment of intense heat. Just look up 'burning paper with steel balls' to see the same kind of thing on a smaller scale. So with these glass balls - with how fast they were chucked at each other, I assume with all the force of that collision collecting at such a tiny point of contact is what resulted in the two of them not just sparking but utterly annihilating each other instead of just going Coney Joney.

It forms the basis for the hourglass/butterfly looking shape right before the glass completely disintegrates due the propagation of many many more additional cracks dissipating the immense dual cannon energy. Spectacular shot!

I appreciate you guys braving the weather to make this awesome video. I really enjoyed it.

Great video guys. The frame of the glass balls colliding is absolutely epic. I would love to have a pic of that, if possible. Thanks for the amazing content.

Much love to Dr. K. for always repairing Rexy. Last time Get the bell on, I think, was R/C car race when throwing stuff off the tower

Thank you

Possibly your most amazing episode - how you persevered in that snow and cold, the paint slowy and the glass balls. As a biologist my mind is just completely boggled by what happened there. Amazing how you keep producing amazing content.

You could use still frames from some of those slow motion clips a t shirt artwork. Particularly the paint explosion and the flash of light when the glass balls collided.

This is the type of content I've been missing! AMAZING VID!!

At first I thought the "rare phenomenon" was at 9:26 with the basketball changing direction without additional external effect. Then I thought the "rare phenomenon" was at 13:33 with the sparks on the right paint cannister. Then I thought the "rare phenomenon" was 19:25 with the glass balls colliding. But obviously, the hay segment at 22:05 was the true phenomenal part of this video.

Being from Montana considering the lack of weather we have had there is only two different times this could have been filmed. And boy was it cold. Mad props for braving the weather.

This has been the strangest winter in a long time. it was -50 a few weeks ago, and the last few days have been in the 50s. The lack of snow is just flat weird. I hope it starts snowing and keeps snowing soon, otherwise, this is gunna be a very dry summer

Supercool and superfun. The paint cans were amazing but the flash of light in the glass balls was on another level. Totally unexpected.

13:37 they should make the spraypaint can explosion into a poster, it would be really cool.

Gav and Dan saw the same phenomenon with their elephant gun experiment, 82,000 frames per second still was too fast.

People underestimate things like the speed of light of the speed of breaking glass. The speed of light is many many times faster than glass. Slomo guys have a video called "The longest 5 seconds on youtube" which is a stationary, perfectly in focus, 19 1/2 hour video, a full raw dump of the entire 5 seconds of recording at 343,000 FPS of a pyrex glass measuring cup breaking. At 343,000 FPS the 3-4 inch pyrex glass handle breaks in under 5 seconds out of the NINETEEN AND A HALF HOUR recording. Even at 82k FPS, no one was seeing anything of value.

Best slowies, hard conditions, bringing back good old segments, rexy hospital visits, nostalgia and a scientific finding. If this is not the best episode of HR I don't know what is

I agree!!

Ending with the silent Science with Gaunson ... chef's kiss. That, good sirs, was class.

Sitting down to another banger video from How Ridiculous. This is why I’ve been subscribed to you for over a year.

The glass balls slowie was up there with the rbb/giant axe head slowie. Epic! Seriously, one of HR's best slowies ever. Thanks for ALWAYS bringing awesome content, boys!

This video had that old school HR energy and feeling. Love everything you guys do but this one took me back. Awesome, awesome, awesome. Cant say it enough. How GREAT!

That last collision gave me goosebumps crazy.

Ive seen something similar online when people break quartz crystals except the light its more purple, those lifesavers mints do it too and some bandaid wrappers do it when you pull them apart its awesome. You can do it yourself but you need to be in a pitch black room to see it and you might need to try a few times because the light isn't very bright and only last for a fraction of a second.

I love the way you all get along. You’re humor and infectious laughter always makes me smile. What a great group of guys. Dr. Kay is awesome as well, taking care of Rexy! Watching you try to talk in the freezing weather was just an added bonus. ❤

When I saw the colours of the paint can collision, I thought that was the best thing I had seen you guys do. When you mentioned that the last test was going to be between two glass balls, I immediately thought "double coney joney" but what you got was so awesome.

Being from Montana, and watching you guys finally being in some snow was just great!

This is the same thing that happens when you split a very hard stone, which is mostly comprised of Silica or SiO2. You can smell the thermic reaction, and feel some of the residual heat, for a brief moment. Though this time, we can actually see it. AMAZING!

Welcome to Midwest winters, boys! Fun to watch you battle the snow. So glad you stuck it out or we would have missed one of the greatest videos ever!

Montana is far from the Midwest… but still made for an epic video nonetheless
