[@PJOZeus]

The fact that glass shattering at half a million frames looks like a *sped up* crystalisation process is insane

[@Zappygunshot]

At 3:03 flipping between the frames where the spark plug impacts, you can see that while the plug itself moves across less than a full pixel, the cracks in the glass are already propagating so fast that the latter frame they're already about the width of the plug away from the point of impact. It never ceases to astound me how fast glass breaks, it's mesmerising and mind boggling in such a beautiful way. Edit: to put it into numbers, between 6:09 and 6:13 the crack moves from about 2/3rds of the way across the frame at 12:10:12.822308.86 to the left edge at 12:10:12.822504.86, meaning it propagated across that distance (which looks to be a few cm) over the span of 296μs, or about 67-100 times faster than chemical signals racing through your neurons to process sensory information (which takes about 20-30ms). In other words, the time between the first photons carrying information about the fact that a large pane of glass is breaking hitting your retina and your brain having turned that into a single frame image, the crack will have advanced by at least 30 meters - and that is before you've started thinking about what that new information means. Granted, the paper I found doesn't specify what kind of glass they used, but at room temperature the speeds at which most kinds of glass break aren't going to be significantly different.

[@LorenHelgeson]

The sledge hammer bouncing off the window is something I have seen in person. A friend of mine explained it as an intended feature of safety glass. It's designed to take straight-on blunt collisions. But, if you chip it with some like the chipped edges of a ceramic spark plug, the jagged edge is able to slip into the "lattice" of the safety glass and cause a chain reaction that causes it to break away. Protect in most collisions, but give way when you need to pull someone out of a burning wreck.

I just watched an old video when you guys started geeking out over 175000 fps , and here we are at 1.75 million 6 years later

I feel like a GOD putting the youtube playback speed at 0.25x

[@racso5628]

The sounds at 0.25x make it seem like the matrix got hurt.

It was like a jump scare lol

Hello good sir, how's life in the year 3021?

[@Akotski-ys9rr]

The frame rate is just gonna be really low it doesn’t actually slow down the video it’s just an illusion

[@SummaryNine26]

Imagine if he slowed the video down in editing and then you slowed it down more on yt

[@workoholekhh7542]

Your doing are very good research for VFX and animation. Thank you very much

[@cinemasanders977]

We're really getting into quantum time here. That last shot reminds me of the Matrix scene with the chopper hitting the side of the building. The glass actually ripples before it shatters.

So beautiful!

[@corentinoger]

4 million frames is the equivalent of 46 hours of standard 24fps movie! The propagation takes ~300µs, assuming it's going 150mm in each direction, that's a propagation speed of 500m/s, 1800km/h, or 1120mph.

[@emmad799]

the way that the last cutting board stays stood up for so long before starting to crack is so eerie and i can’t explain why

[@shadowthetwisted]

when in actuality, it stood up for a fraction of a second.

[@jackielinde7568]

For those who are wondering what it happening: 1. Tempered Glass is constructed in such a way that the skin is put under tension as the glass cools. This tension gives the piece incredible strength against shattering when a distributed force is applied (like the sledgehammer) by deforming like a sheet flapping in the wind. The energy ripples across the glass, but the piece maintains it integrity. 2. BUT, if you SCRATCH the glass, that tension is released and the piece shatters under the strain.This shattering renders the glass into tiny little cubes. While these little bits are still sharp, you don't get the needle like, ultra thin, fines of glass that could shred skin. It's odd, but both of these properties are the desired outcome of tempered glass. You don't want the glass to break just by someone putting their elbow, fist, or head through the glass, but when it does break, you want it forming shapes much safer than normal glass. (Trust me, I've worked with art glass for slumping and fusing. It's VERY EASY to cut oneself without knowing it, only to look down at all the blood on the table.) Prince Rupert Drops demonstrate what goes into tempered glass.

[@reeba4824]

Ty for the explanation! This is REALLY fascinating but mainly cool 😲😄

[@Milamberinx]

I always wonder how it's possible to have a crack in a car windscreen given that it's tempered glass. My car had a crack just appear one day from the side to about a fifth of the way across, but why didn't it shatter?

[@jackielinde7568]

@@Milamberinx I don't think the windshield is tempered glass. It's a laminate where two layers of glass sandwich a plastic polymer sheet. In the event something tries to smash through the windshield, the plastic holds everything together. My guess it's because of those flying rocks that love to chip the windshield is why tempered glass isn't used there. Can you imagine driving down the highway, and suddenly you're sitting in a pile of your windshield because a rock hit it? Here's the glass that's used for windshields: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminated_glass

For anyone who is wondering what 1.7 million frames per second is when stretched into a 60fps video: that's 7.87 hours (7 hours, 52 minutes) of footage from a single second of filming.(assuming I did my math right)
