  • johngrisham, on 02/21/2008, -43/+4Dugg for the water falling on the guy's head at the end. God that was funny and so out of nowhere!
    • litolist, on 02/21/2008, -2/+5Way to spoil the ending. :-P
    • t1n0m3n, on 02/21/2008, -2/+11I had to turn if off at that point due to my aversion to being subjected to suspiciously gay media.
    • elpohl, on 02/22/2008, -0/+2Wow. I bet they hire you to record the sitcom's laughs.
  • Spytap, on 02/21/2008, -7/+46I wonder if this is the same camera that was used in Bad Boys 2 to watch the bullet go through the glasses (it's at the end of this clip - http://youtube.com/watch?v=fzATDpUvUpo ) They said that they were shooting at 10,000 frames per second on four cameras and then stitched the shots together for the pan. Either way, coolness.
    • dcmjzero, on 02/21/2008, -20/+7dugg down for thinking bad boys 2 was cool.

      /you suck michael bay!
      • Spytap, on 02/21/2008, -1/+18I'm a guy. I like it when ***** blows up.
    • davemartin7777, on 02/21/2008, -7/+2Holy *****, you could have totally Rick rolled me there.
    • blueRAP, on 02/21/2008, -3/+8The last 15 seconds of that clip was 10x cooler than the whole featured video
    • trunk8, on 02/22/2008, -0/+5"You ain't seen Bad Boys 2?"

    • obxjdt, on 02/22/2008, -2/+8Looks like it's CGI, hard to tell. Could be real...
      Yes, I mean the part with the bullet going through the bottles....
      • Apoc04, on 02/22/2008, -0/+2right, thats what I think also. Hard to tell.
    • chungmaster, on 02/22/2008, -2/+1The youtube comments give me great hope of today's youth.

      • insomniac8400, on 02/22/2008, -0/+2Pure genius.
      • tribble222, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1The last one in that video, the card trick, is a joke! They changed the angle so you can see the trick easily, having it in slow motion didn't help anything.
    • elislider, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1i doubt it. that was more like the freak on a leash music video, which has been around for years but i'm not sure what kind of technology it uses
  • gigamegater, on 02/21/2008, -29/+3I can do this with my iphone camera
    • sthedasap, on 02/21/2008, -4/+15if you wernt to busy sucking off steve jobs
      • akuma1, on 02/21/2008, -8/+2learn to use the button below that says "check spelling"

        retard!
        • ayeroxor, on 02/21/2008, -3/+2Wouldn't have caught his to/too problems so he probably doesn't bother. Lerning yore languidge is just too difficult for some.
      • dajernts, on 02/21/2008, -1/+2Did you not understand what he said. Who's really the retard?
        • BooshTukka, on 02/22/2008, -0/+2/me refrains from pointing out your missing question mark. It was hard, though.
    • SuperWinner, on 02/21/2008, -1/+11you really are living the iLife!
    • Extraneous, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1I guess that makes up for not being able to make phone calls huh?
    • stevenbao, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1Too bad you can't record video with the iPhone.
  • LittleFishChan, on 02/21/2008, -1/+36Everything seems to look much more beautiful in the end.
    • DoodleMaster, on 02/21/2008, -0/+7*gets out soap box* Plus one digg to the Man, Woman or Child who can find a longer video clip!
    • jeremyfohferemy, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1/emo amirite?
    • CedEx, on 02/21/2008, -0/+0But I wonder what it would sound like?
  • ranilolil, on 02/21/2008, -6/+37I was so hoping the bird going to hit a wall or something in slow motion
    • diggydougie, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1Or maybe get shot with a hunter's bullet.
  • DeviantDragon, on 02/21/2008, -4/+25I don't think this is the most cutting edge tech out there anymore is it? This isn't really that new of a video.
    • PathDaemon, on 02/21/2008, -1/+1In related news, anyone actually know what "technology" this is? What's the model/manufacturer of the camera (or others... preferably cheap and on eBay :))?
    • jguy584, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1There is a million fps camera out there, which I *think* is the highest there is.
      Also high speed cameras are insanely expensive.
    • moush, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1I don't see it say anywhere that it is the most hi-tech.
  • SuperWinner, on 02/21/2008, -21/+91Imagine 2 girls 1 cup shot with this camera!!
    • stevene, on 02/21/2008, -1/+27No thanks.
      • endlessoul, on 02/21/2008, -1/+4Seriously. No. I couldn't even finish that video.
    • traxen, on 02/21/2008, -5/+20When you said "No thanks".. the image was already in your head ;) So enjoy it.. cause it may last :D
    • chibimmy, on 02/21/2008, -2/+29I believe it would look like *****.
    • itsradBrad, on 02/21/2008, -4/+3Seeing them vomit in super slo-mo would make me vomit even faster than I did the 1st time I saw it.
    • misconstrued, on 02/21/2008, -11/+22 girls 1 cup is nothing if not Disney compared to this:

      (the end in super slow motion is unimaginable)
      • hadak, on 02/21/2008, -1/+2You're lucky I accidentally clicked the thumbs up. That's a dead link, anyway.
      • misconstrued, on 02/22/2008, -1/+1It's the BME Pain Olympics. It's horrifying...

        (link fixed)
    • Ubertastic, on 02/22/2008, -1/+4I want to personally thank you for ruining my dinner.
    • pikpikcarrotmon, on 02/22/2008, -2/+2EEEEEEEEEW. ***** NO JUST NOOOOOO
  • satanswetnipple, on 02/21/2008, -7/+10080x slower? That is nothing! Get stuck behind my aging mother in traffic, and you will know what real slow mo is!
    • nemothewhale, on 02/21/2008, -0/+22Man, you showed your mom with that joke!
      • satanswetnipple, on 02/21/2008, -3/+2I never said it was a joke. Maybe you like to be one of the 30 cars behind her on the open road? She is never less than 30 minutes late, and seems to believe everyone else does not need to be on time either. I have told her that the people stuck behind her are not "tooting hello" when they hit the horn, but it never sinks in.
    • Contrast27, on 02/21/2008, -1/+10Digg's amateur hour at it's finest.
    • corneliusJones, on 02/21/2008, -2/+7You've taken lame to a whole new level.
    • anononon, on 02/22/2008, -1/+4Goddamit, I'm never drinking milk while reading Digg again.
  • DrZocktahedron, on 02/21/2008, -10/+4This has been on digg several times. But I still dugg it!
    • ayeroxor, on 02/21/2008, -6/+1Aren't you supposed to then say "I'm such a retard" and finish it up with "/sarcasm" ?
    • BruceBogtrotter, on 02/22/2008, -0/+2Who the ***** has not seen a high speed camera anyways?
  • groone, on 02/21/2008, -10/+2Damn, I didn't think that video would ever end!
    • DrZocktahedron, on 02/21/2008, -3/+14really? theres a bar on your video showing the progress.
  • DrZocktahedron, on 02/21/2008, -3/+26I wish I could afford a high speed camera, Id record everything in slow motion.
    • chibimmy, on 02/21/2008, -2/+46You'd probably just use it to make a sex tape so you'd last more than 30 seconds.
    • hasahugedig, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2You will be able to soon. Casio is gonna release a consumer camera that can shoot from 300 fps up to 1200fps video some time in March. Cost is estimated to be around $1k though.

      http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,141079-c,ces/art ...
      • t0ny, on 02/22/2008, -0/+2I want that camera. The only problem is it has a pretty low res when doing high speed. The 1200 is something like 148x98 if I remember right.
  • mark076h, on 02/21/2008, -7/+4badass
  • hphickman, on 02/21/2008, -8/+785MIN spammed to the front page with their army of fake accounts.
    • jun2san, on 02/21/2008, -6/+18Exactly!! I bury everything from 5min. Watch my comment get dugg down by the army.
      • dasbacon, on 02/21/2008, -1/+10I was wondering why people kept digging from such a ***** site like this, all content aside..
    • moush, on 02/22/2008, -1/+3I'm sure cracked and other sites don't do this as well.
      • exformation, on 02/22/2008, -1/+4I can see a reason to actually like cracked though.
      • graeh, on 02/22/2008, -0/+5There's some damned good original writing on Cracked. It continues to impress me. If it's the same "cracked" as that crappy MAD magazine knock off from my childhood, then clearly they kicked out the majority of writers from back then and have picked up new ones.
    • shakbhaji, on 02/22/2008, -0/+2Would it make you happier if it was on youtube? Honestly, I don't get why people bury something just because it's on 5min. This was actually pretty cool. Give it a look.
  • falloutsyndrome, on 02/21/2008, -5/+61I thought the slowest technology was licensed by AOL? They should sue the guys who made this camera.
    • ayeroxor, on 02/21/2008, -4/+20Those comedy books from 1994 really should have an expiration date.
  • sctx, on 02/21/2008, -8/+2I really want a camera like this so I can just go around recording random things in super slow motion. I think it would be hilariously fun.
  • ricksite, on 02/21/2008, -0/+14Casio is working on a consumer camera that can capture 300 fps. I imagine there will be a bunch of slow-mo videos on Youtube soon after it is released.
    • DeathJux, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3You're talking about the Casio EX-F1, which, while marketed as a high-speed photography camera, can do video as well.

      It shoots at 300, 600, and 1200 FPS, though you take substantial resolution hits at the higher speeds. At 300 FPS, it can almost shoot at Standard Def. It can also do 1080i. I can't wait.
    • badjoke, on 02/22/2008, -0/+1Great, annoying 12 year olds singing and dancing, just longer videos.
  • garfonzo, on 02/21/2008, -5/+7really don't like 5min site - so slow....
    • teejaay, on 02/21/2008, -1/+4Really. I was thinking the slowest thing about this post is how long it takes the site to load.
      • scrimaxinc, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1The site takes a really long time to load too.
    • SkippyDoorknob, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3The server is obviously running on one of those cameras.
      • spudnic, on 02/21/2008, -1/+1The cameras are actually working extremely quickly to capture things like this....
  • gstep, on 02/21/2008, -2/+8I feel like I've seen this before?
    • miko555, on 02/21/2008, -2/+2old video is old
    • spudnic, on 02/21/2008, -0/+8That isn't a question?
    • sixsidepentagon, on 02/22/2008, -0/+2That's deja vu. It's a glitch in the Matrix. Slow mo is code for distracting you.
  • thelock65, on 02/21/2008, -9/+4that's cool as *****.
    *****=very cool
    • stevene, on 02/21/2008, -0/+7if ***** = very cool, then you said
      'that's cool as very cool'
  • tumbler360, on 02/21/2008, -2/+8that was awesome, i want more! Where is there more stuff from this camera?
  • megaton, on 02/21/2008, -6/+156False. THIS is the coolest slow-mo technology out there: http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1803355
  • jspania, on 02/21/2008, -9/+3DO WANT!
    /imagines boobies jumping in absolute slow motion..

    ..BOOOOOOOOOBIEEEEEEEEEES
  • corneliusJones, on 02/21/2008, -7/+1wicked bad
  • timothiuz, on 02/21/2008, -8/+3I would love to watch Hillary Clinton's mouth in slow-mo

  • Lust4Me, on 02/21/2008, -2/+2Now I know how to do it! Buy something! Good FAQ.
  • borez, on 02/21/2008, -2/+11Slow-mo-server too
  • mercury187, on 02/21/2008, -2/+2Waiting for www.5min.com...
    Looks like it doesnt work anymore.
  • duo8675309, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2Does anyone know where I could get a highspeed camera, and how much it would run me? I've always wanted one to play around with, but I have a gut feeling that they're incredibly expensive.
  • mal1964, on 02/21/2008, -2/+2Cool slow technology,
    Say that five time fast.
  • narcofiche, on 02/21/2008, -1/+14WTF. I want to see the rest of this video.
  • Vandessa, on 02/21/2008, -1/+2Metacafe has a working link:
    http://www.metacafe.com/watch/435496/slow_camera_i ...
  • miatman, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2Casio just released a consumer based camera that can capture video up to 1200fps. It only costs $1000! Check it out: http://www.dpreview.com/news/0801/08010601casiof1. ...
    • Archer007, on 02/21/2008, -0/+5...if you drop the image size to 336 x 96
  • dajernts, on 02/21/2008, -0/+8He was talking about a camera that could shoot 1000x slower but only showed the 80x clip. Is there more?
  • TheAmbushAhead, on 02/21/2008, -2/+1I remember reading an article in PopSci a while ago that showed a camera that could capture the movement of a beam of light. Really cool, but I can't find a link at the moment.
  • jpaulholl, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2That was awesome!
  • PhattyPhattMatt, on 02/21/2008, -1/+1it think my connection to the site Timed out cuz it loaded 80x's slower...
  • mrblonde314, on 02/21/2008, -0/+6The Planet Earth series used these cameras to shoot some pretty breathtaking scenes. Like a 1 second clip of a shark eating a seal in a single bite slowed down to 47 seconds. See 2:10 of the following video.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5eJkjMLIRM
  • Wootstapler, on 02/21/2008, -4/+2Honestly, everything is cooler in slo-mo. Even taking a ***** would be cool to see in slo-mo.
  • Turr, on 02/21/2008, -3/+3that was cool to see the water hold it's shape before gravity took full effect
    • active1x0, on 02/21/2008, -5/+1You're a ***** idiot.
    • allengeer, on 02/21/2008, -3/+4gravity had a "full effect" on the water at all times during the filming of that.
  • millenniumjules, on 02/21/2008, -0/+2Slow is really cool.. I would like one of those..
  • xbirdmanx, on 02/21/2008, -0/+3the water balloon hitting his head was a classy touch
  • ahawks, on 02/21/2008, -0/+8Unimpressed really...
    They say the camera can shoot up to 1,000x speed, and then they show us 80x? I've seen waterballoons popped at 80x before, I wanted to see 1,000.
    • pyro789x, on 02/22/2008, -1/+2You wanted to see a one second clip for 15 minutes? I don't know about you, but I'm far too impatient for that.
    • archivist, on 02/22/2008, -1/+180x means:

      30fps (human eye frame rate) X 80x = 2,400 fps at normal resolution
      casio exlim exf1 is only good until 1,200 at reduced resolution.
  • mikehorn, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1They probably used the Phantom HD camera. Shoots 1,000 fps and is meant for video production as opposed cameras meant for science and research:
    http://www.visionresearch.com/index.cfm?sector=htm ...
  • CharlesMay, on 02/21/2008, -1/+3That would be cool for analyzing a golf swing.
    • mikehorn, on 02/21/2008, -0/+1I worked on a callaway golf commercial using the camera I linked above for that very purpose.
  • justjoehere, on 02/21/2008, -1/+1Where can I get one of those cameras?
  • Fingertips, on 02/21/2008, -10/+4I love the sensationalist title. Heres the best ones in fact:

  • wiggs08, on 02/21/2008, -0/+4everything's better in slow-mo...who wants to see some boobs bounce lol
  • tpearl, on 02/21/2008, -5/+2Fake
  • gllopc, on 02/21/2008, -9/+4Fluffer, return to your seat.
    Quite on the set!
    Lights..
    Slow motion camera.. roll film!
    "Slo-Mo *****", take three.
    and....
    EJACULATE!
