  • shanethetrain, on 03/15/2008, -20/+7It seems like blender companies would pay some good money for this footage so they could improve the efficiency of the blender. I think that there was a total of .4 milliseconds wasted by the tomato bouncing off the blades.
    • capiCrimm, on 03/15/2008, -0/+12solution, cut the tomato in half before putting it in the blender.
    • christoast, on 09/04/2008, -2/+2our blender is so ***** awesome it ***** decimates tomatoes
  • JMIJohnny, on 03/15/2008, -6/+11So now noone can ask if it will blend.
  • 93TILL503, on 03/15/2008, -14/+5Will it blend?
    • capiCrimm, on 03/15/2008, -2/+11No. if you had watched the video and read the article you would realize tomato's are impervious to blending and cutting. Scientists are obviously puzzled, but offer that they may be able to use tomatoes in next generation body armor.
      • itsgotyou, on 03/15/2008, -1/+4attack of the killer tomato armor.
  • ictharus, on 03/15/2008, -8/+3It blends!
  • gmm4life, on 03/15/2008, -10/+2Why would you blend a tomato?
    • D3koy, on 03/15/2008, -2/+10Never ask "why would you ______", the answer is "youtube"
    • EvilFerret, on 03/15/2008, -1/+4........ Salsa? Tomato juice?
    • sbluetruck, on 03/15/2008, -2/+1you coulda had a V8
  • atomsky, on 03/15/2008, -2/+43Maybe I have an active imagination, but I actually did find this 10x scarier when I pretended I was a tomato.
    • capiCrimm, on 03/15/2008, -1/+9another thought to keep in mind is that a tomato is the equivalent of a plant baby.
      • tacojohn48, on 03/15/2008, -1/+1Then so long as it was the adult plant's choice it is ok
    • dcmjzero, on 03/16/2008, -0/+1did anyone else think of the movie "Goonies"?
  • Dtopler, on 03/15/2008, -2/+45Dugg for "If we were all tomatoes this would be difficult to watch."
  • HydrogenOxide, on 03/15/2008, -7/+1I bet that made a whole lot of ketchup.
  • notanidiot, on 03/15/2008, -4/+30Oh, that poor little tomato! Did anyone else think that looked really violent?
  • DeadlyCouncil, on 03/15/2008, -1/+18Tomato + Metal blade moving at the speed of death = win.
    • dcmjzero, on 03/16/2008, -2/+1i, for one, like this new form of math. you could call that equation the "DeadlyCouncil Theorem of Win." this video would be the proof.
  • bugsy, on 03/15/2008, -2/+31dang. i was going to put my finger in a blender, but not anymore.
    • capiCrimm, on 03/15/2008, -1/+19if you reconsider please film in slow motion.
      • ElbertF, on 03/16/2008, -0/+4No, film it in high speed. Then play it in slow motion.
  • MikeEnIke, on 03/15/2008, -1/+19I'd like to see it even slower so you could see the blades spinning individually. But it was awesome, I'm a sucker for slo-mo vids.
    • sailadayaway, on 03/15/2008, -0/+2More proof that everything is cooler in slow motion
    • pyro789x, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1I don't know... maybe only if the parts where the tomato was actually being cut were that slow, like some creepy kind of action horror movie. Otherwise, you would spend most of your time watching the tomato just float there in the air.
  • jessestorm, on 03/15/2008, -2/+19you say tomato... I say not anymore.
  • SpookyPig, on 03/15/2008, -9/+5Tomato Smoke... You can breathe this.
  • pokemonfan4eva, on 03/15/2008, -6/+1U got blended.
  • Bazillions, on 03/15/2008, -6/+1WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!!?!!1
  • homercles337, on 03/15/2008, -4/+8The video stalls at 00.01 for me. Meh...
    • ortucis, on 03/15/2008, -1/+3Tweak your MTU and stuff.. and feed tomatoes into your tubes.
    • directedition, on 03/15/2008, -3/+3It's doing the same thing for me. Won't go past 00.01
  • jeremyfohferemy, on 03/15/2008, -1/+18the first few milliseconds it was like: "lol, im good, just a nick."
    But then it was like: "N00000000000!"
    • Atomic1fire, on 03/15/2008, -3/+2I thought it was more like
      WEEEEEEEEEE the way it bounced on the blades
      and then AHHHHHHHH the way it ended up with that big gaping slash and being riped apart
  • bradcrc, on 03/15/2008, -5/+3the fact that so many have watched this is proof of the concept of boredom.
    • bugsy, on 03/15/2008, -1/+1FAIL. so not true. this is an incredible slow-mo video!!!!
      • itsgotyou, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1anything played in slo-mo is interesting, except maybe paint drying on the wall.
        • pyro789x, on 03/15/2008, -0/+2unless it played slowly enough for you to be able to see the leprechauns running in and blowing on the wall then running off every few seconds
  • MaddenedOne, on 03/15/2008, -2/+0Now lets try some other things in there.
  • IgWannA, on 03/15/2008, -1/+6tomatowned
  • ytsrc, on 03/15/2008, -1/+0well, bored as we are, jay whitlow, eric y and even sammie thought this was the goriest thing we had seen for a while. sammie wants to make a slow-mo video of pimple popping so if jay whitlow will hold the camera you may in for a treat tomorrow.
  • EvilFerret, on 03/15/2008, -1/+5Strange how the tomato almost seemed alive during that. Seemed like it was trying to cling onto the walls of the blender desperately while the blades ripped off pieces of its body. I could almost hear the tries of pain coming from it. Going to have a hamburger for lunch.......think I'll skip on the ketchup :(
  • hypereg, on 03/15/2008, -2/+2This is your brain...this is your brain on drugs
  • cottonbuds, on 03/15/2008, -2/+0Tomatorolled
  • ArmyOfOrr42, on 03/15/2008, -2/+1Gruesome.
  • A14049752, on 03/15/2008, -2/+1WOW! Where can I get a slow motion tomato?
  • mike23w, on 03/15/2008, -2/+1This would fit in perfectly with the introduction to "Dexter"
  • moletimer, on 03/15/2008, -1/+2This should come with an extreme violence warning. Despicable. I mean, what if the baby tomatoes saw this? They would be disturbed for life.
  • TexasShiv, on 03/15/2008, -3/+1Is it possible to see this with George Bush's brain?
  • serend, on 03/15/2008, -0/+2http://www.lucidmovement.com/

    They should call this 'doing an eBaums.'
  • paulperson, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1This is the first time I thought, "Poor little tomatoe. =( "
  • mal1964, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1That is actually the ending of the movie "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes"
  • snohman, on 03/15/2008, -1/+1Matrix..only with a tomato...hh...
  • slapballs, on 03/15/2008, -3/+1WAY better slomo clip -----------------> http://www.break.com/index/best-slow-motion-balloo ...

  • pearlygate, on 03/15/2008, -2/+1where's the vegetable right activist?????? this is inhumane treatment of tomato!!
  • Voltaire2, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1why was I laughing the entire time?
  • synned, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1Is the video lagging for everyone else? ;)
  • SchrodingersCar, on 03/15/2008, -2/+0OK! I'll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life!
    • asgarren, on 03/16/2008, -0/+0you are only human, we all do dumb stuff in our life. don't be so hard on yourself. some of that stuff was actually funny. live and learn.
  • daines88, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1it's pretty amazing how inefficient blenders really are
  • bluenash, on 03/15/2008, -0/+1the horror! the horror!
  • Enjia, on 03/16/2008, -0/+1that tomatoe got rick rolled
  • AmandaQ, on 03/16/2008, -0/+1For some reason this makes me really happy.
  • TwineHornet, on 03/16/2008, -0/+1That's a horrible way to go.
  • csw3190, on 03/16/2008, -0/+1This just goes to show how captivating high frame rate/slow motion video is in and of itself. It's a tomato...in a blender.
