Theres something so fitting about the ghostbusters putting ads in what looks like a training video

[@GhostbustersNW]

We're all about education here at GBNW...educating the public about Ghostbusting tech and amazing deals!

[@icerrose3425]

This is a video that has to make Dan Aykroyd proud. So well done.

[@inspectorjohnnywolfergad4149]

Yup😄

[@inspectorjohnnywolfergad4149]

And another great thing is that's one best way to punish Retrospecter and taught him a lesson for Revenge😁😁😁

[@inspectorjohnnywolfergad4149]

Now you might be questioning G,B,N,W... Who is RetroSpecter? RetroSpecter is a Ecto lizard demon witch hes more similar to a ghosts but hes like a living demon instead of a floating ghost that you will soon be alarmed is that Retro is know to be the guardian of the gates of wrath who i would say he got out of Ecto hell and decided to stay in the living world wtich he shouldn't cause that i know all too well that he's not only known to be a Stern, Serious and grumpy lizard demon but hes also known to be a Aggressive, Dangerous and a big threat monster witch im surprised he hasn't attacked anyone especially in Brooklyn New York but for me it still sounds way too risky and dangerous for all the humans witch i know now that you G,B,N,W will make plans to Ghostbust RetroSpecter some day for a punishment.

[@inspectorjohnnywolfergad4149]

And Yeah i am not joking G,B,N,W i am talking serious.😐

[@davidsneary8681]

I agree but i am a big fan of Ghostbusters.

[@Roberts7466]

This might be the greatest Ghostbusters video outside the movies/cartoons I have ever seen. I cannot wait to see more of these. Liked, subscribed and shared.

[@Nami]

Okay, so. I'm a lifelong Ghostbusters fan and I USUALLY find this sort of thing kind of cringe-inducing. This is done so well and so professionally, though. It's so good. This is something I could see myself linking friends if the topic of how some of this equipment is supposed to work ever comes up. The presentation is honestly very, very slick. And, while I don't know if this is all genuine information learned from some kind of novelty manual or some such that has been published, I'm more than willing to accept it as canon. Really, really good video.

[@mandi8345]

Personally I could do without the cringetastic attempts at comedy and absurdity. But the more sciencey stuff is pretty interesting. I mean, gluons, muons, particle accelerators, none of those works like that.....in this universe (that being said, I was impressed they used the proper D shaped coils for the proton pack accelerator). However, when properly fleshed out, I am perfectly comfortable with it working like that within the GB universe!

[@mysteryman3854]

​@mandi8345 Personally I'd like to see Ryuk from Death Note get sucked into one of those. 😏😏😏😏😏

[@GhostbustersNW]

@@mandi8345 We're going to start a band and call it "Cringetastic"

[@mr.bill.8236]

Wolfman's got nards... that's hilarious. Monster Squad, I haven't seen that movie in years.

[@Ironcabbit]

I always thought the reason to avoid looking in the open trap is that it’s so bright you’ll run the risk of blindness. That’s how Egon reacted when he looked in the trap, also why Peter looked away and then completely shut his eyes when the conic field expanded during the trap closure.

[@Ranter-yi9zq]

Man... you big GB fans know how to make things realistic. As if super natural elimination really does exist. Well done.

[@GhostbustersNW]

We certainly hope super natural elimination exists...otherwise we're out of a job!

[@mysteryman3854]

​@@GhostbustersNWHow many Yokai do you think can fit in the trap and how much NRADS do you think they'd produce?

[@MagnoliClothiersLtd]

VERY well done... can't believe it took us this long to discover it. And that Monster Squad reference had me laughing out loud. Bravo.

[@GhostbustersNW]

No worries. It's on brand that a clothing company would be fashionably late. 🙂

[@johnspringer9275]

They certainly are the window to the soul.

[@nunavyourbiznas8660]

When Dan Aykroyd was creating ghostbusters he fleshed out and mocked up every single scientific detail behind every piece of equipment. As he said himself "Everything on the ecto-1 is there for a purpose." Where did you get the technical information on this? Did Dan jot down some technical notes on a bar napkin in '84 or something? If so I would *LOVE* to read it myself.

[@TheCorrodedMan]

Dans always loved fleshing stuff out. Man goes bugfuck insane for lore

[@mysteryman3854]

​@JamesTAdams How many Yokai do you think can fit in the trap and how much NRADS do you think they'd produce?

[@SahareStudios]

Absolutely brilliant. Thanks so much for working with me to make this video from my post. The post in the description explains it more fully for those that want to dive in. Basically the Tr mode requires you to set the NRADS shielding manually yourself when you catch multiple ghosts (and balance the battery life). The Tr + G mode primes the trap to maximum NRADS (or whatever you specify using GD) shielding and minimal battery life to capture a very strong entity. You can't open the trap to capture another entity in this mode without emptying the trap into the containment unit. (The NRADS limit for the Tr G mode is set using the GD switch on the NRADS mode selector, but most of the time it's just set to maximum NRADS). And ADF function. which allows you to capture as many ghosts as you want and tries to balance the NRADS requirement VS battery life automatically, but features much slower trapping speed/performance as it need to auto calculate NRADS vs battery life on the fly.

[@chrisminton516]

Somewhere out there in the bowls of the HasLab Lab, my trap and PKE are currently being built to these exact specifications. I will be sure to come back to this video before operating said equipment when it arrives in late 2024 to early 2025. Until then I am going to Muon Down Muon Down Muon Down The Road!!!

[@GhostbustersNW]

Smart. Don't take chances operating new equipment before referring to our training material for a refresher.

[@cadensplanets5518]

As a Ghostbusters fan, I think the Ghostbusters would be very proud of this video.

Hey, GBNW. I saw them in the mass possession events of 2015 in everett. They were understaffed at the time.

[@GhostbustersNW]

The REAL genius is Dr. Egon Spengler and Dr. Ray Stantz who invented his amazing technology. We simply push our intern to the brink of insanity to animate the basic concepts behind it. That said, we would love 1M+ subs. Clearly not enough people believe in ghosts and ghost capture and containment equipment.

[@brandonhoheisel987]

I love these dude! Gotta do the goggles, though.. where did you find that background audio? I'd like to download it

[@cyber4209]

There is one problem but there is also a fix to it, the trap simply can't pull in Muons because muons are extremely unstable and quickly decay into 2 neutrinos and an electron, but the positively polarized electromagnets inside will still pull those particles inside the trap.

[@El_Reno_Ghostbusters]

Imagine showing this video to Dan Aykroyd, idk exactly the expression he'd make but I'd say on the surprised/shocked expression side.

[@GhostbustersNW]

It would be a dream. It would be amazing if the founding member of the Ghostbusters home office narrated one of our videos.

[@apollolux]

I looked at the trap! o_O

[@user-zr7zv6sx2y]

[@pseadynamo]

1:53 if that’s the case, how come it didn’t effect Dr. Spengler when he looked at it while catching Slimer? I’m not trying to start anything, I’m genuinely curious

[@GhostbustersNW]

I'm sure distance helped, as he wasn't that close to the entrapment cone. Plus who knows if glasses provide any protection. For all we know his soul bounced off the lenses and back into his cranium. 🙂

I thought the reason that you don’t look into the trap is because how bright it is because Egon looked into the trap and his soul wasn’t sucked out

[@GhostbustersNW]

There were a couple of variables at play. 1) He looked at the trap during the first pedal press. As long as you are not looking at during the 2nd pedal press, you should be OK. 2) Distance also plays a factor. As long as you are not near the edges of the cone entrapment field, you have a 75% chance of keeping your soul.
