4 Ton Wrecking Ball in Slow Motion - The Slow Mo Guys

Hi, I'm Gavin, welcome to

slow

motion

guys

. You have been with me in the middle of a Dallas

wrecking

yard for a long time. We've been big fans of all three of these

guys

, so we're really excited to be here to promote. season 2 on the Grand Tour Dan's last arias check it out what do you think of this? It's my hobby, we bought a motorhome, yes, why mine. I was thinking that we are filming at least in remote locations. I also want to relax like it's a home base. This road trip, the American dream and all that, makes absolutely sense to me, so you're saying great haul, right, yeah, great dish, it would be a crime not to do something that involves cars, okay, whatever. sees well with

slow

motion

in cars, which kills in hell.

They never crush them, yeah, I have some idea. I was thinking how about a 4 ton

wrecking

ball

and a huge crane that is usually used to smash up huge buildings, yeah so it should cause quite a dent to a car. I mean, I think it's a bit of a stretch to say it, but anyway. We've got some old hits we're going to kill off and how about we try them on a wall first? You gotta make sure we have a good wrecking

ball

, yeah, benchmark, yeah, Miley Cyrus, that's big, yeah, I wasn't messing with this. It weighs 9,000 pounds or over four metric tons of pure weight, it's big fat cranes swinging inwards, yeah, so let's hit the wall from behind this one, actually, it's a solid solid brick wall, it has some supports on the back obviously won't do anything.

Against this, although this will be useful as an explosion, I will surely hold it as close as possible. A second type triggering too violent. Oh, I acted like it was nothing, I just ran through it like a piece of paper like Lego, yeah, okay, so I guess. we are ready to put the cars, yes it was a good test, we are ready, our victim, a real American car, isn't it victim number one? Honking, color. Oh, like Miss Daisy. Tan vom evoke definitely implies vomit somewhere, it 100% does. We're absolutely going to attack him right there, hit, I think if we hit him low, he's more likely to change, so we'll give him the maximum beans and get out of the way, oh, I just swept him right over the brain, it's like it's you.

I just got a broom and we're not so fastened on that tire look at that wait what do you see? What happened is it hit the back of the car and this tire sank into the ground oh, it took the tire off the wheel, yeah. He ripped the tire off the wheel and that caused the back of the car to come off and look, this tire officer didn't have that much weight on it so he spread it around the back, oh man look now here's your problem, how are you going to do it? Get in the car now because the handles broke.

How are you going to pick up girls? I mean, you could drive it. Oh, how are you going to clean the girls if they can't get in? Strong boys. Do you want to see if the other door opens and you can enter? on the driver's side it looks like you pranked what happened here well, funny story, okay, let's take a cheeky look at that foot, shall we? I'm willing to do it, oh, you know what? The wrecking ball is absolutely fine though, window, come on. the whole tablecloth hits the window now the cars just move from one place to another the interesting thing is that even though the impact area is, you know the size of the front of the wrecking ball, it drags so much extra material that the dent is like twice the size, this is dragging the door and it just hit the whole car, one sentence, see you later, look at that, so you see where the roof is now folding and being dragged down by its crease, shedding all the paint oh wow, that's so cool, send in those lines there is an element of difference with this car, yes, that in the fact that there is no pillar in the door.

Oh, interesting, yeah, the last one we hit here, this one if we lifted the ball, maybe a foot. we'll get more kind of wrinkled edge on the top and less movement of the hole, ha, so we'll completely change the angle we hit on the car, so maybe we'll just break the top from there, okay, I never really will. will. We know what's going to happen, we're learning all the time, so experiment, experiment, do you think you'll ever drop the ball on your work, but it's such a big delay? Oh, here it comes. I thought that might happen because we're hitting it.

From above I thought that if the roofs were strong enough, the car would roll right into the window. Great, see the way the back end explodes. Yes, with your look, guys, you almost pushed him to the floor, dragging him much worse. -Bone, look that glass is now just air glitter. I like how the glass is fairly stationary, but the car is actually being pushed sideways quickly towards me. The glasses here are horrible, the tires bend at the back, that impression is so impressive, how strong. the ceiling is the fact that they grabbed it and dragged it, you wouldn't want to have been there, you know that, the mirror wasn't even touched, it didn't reach them, it must have missed the mirror by about an inch, are they there? some coins what we are heavy I need some changes you see there is your problem what is upside down now it is on its side although it is difficult to move how are we going to move?

It should be a wrecking ball, a wrecking ball there it goes, so it looks like one more hit, oh god, a surprisingly strong underside of a car, yeah, I mean, I think that's where all the force is, so the fact that he just grazed it with the wrecking ball and all the force went into flipping the car too, I think. it's less sturdy on the side than with the wheels on the ground so it's more like it's not bottom heavy anymore yeah so there's a good roll yeah how does it feel to drop it? I like to drop, we're going to drop a little bit, so we've got to the bottom of why we hit the side, yeah, well, now we're going to let gravity do the work right in the front so you know, Darius, just pull him up, push the emergency release and release it, basically just drop the equivalent. of a little elephant on the hood, yeah, a female African elephant, yeah, okay, specific, oh well, it just landed on the car parked on the car, it's just parked on it, you know what, that hit the floor with so much force that it shook the camera, look at this. look at this camera it moves like a joint, like a joint space where, as you know, movies accumulate like dust, if there was a glass of water on the floor, it would have been a tyrannosaurus like the one from Godzilla, the sniper GoPro just said that we could have killed that GoPro.

Incredible, he survived 9,000 pounds. Oh, the side window blew out, it was the other side that went really deep into the car. I'm convinced that the wrecking ball actually just hit the ground there, yeah, yeah, I feel like we should try hitting it. hit it again right here, sorry, right on the hood, yeah, okay, where's the steering wheel? Ah, it's in the seat. Look, the steering wheel would be in your legs. Look, it just came out. This is like, oh, that's the destruction we wanted, oh my God, judo and. Automakers say, Oh, we couldn't fit a bigger and bigger engine.

If you could. I don't think a window means it's ever been more broken. You know, I'm just saying put a brick in the window. Yes, but this is about the size. and the width of the window, in the middle, there we actually landed, all the glass turned to sand, yes, now it's dust. I couldn't have been more focused on the engine. What you have to remember is that there is a motor there. a solid chunk of melt in the road, no nonsense, yeah look you see a wrecking ball going away oh, that was a beautiful amount of destruction, so satisfying it tore up a few cars, oh it turns into paper, does it?

Isn't it like nothing? look where its name comes from yeah yeah i love this wrecking ball can we keep it? How about we take her with us? I mean, can you fly with a 9,000 pound metal ball? Imagine the excess baggage fees that's why they just let you pay for the entire flight you probably just buy the plane, I hope you enjoyed that video, feel free to subscribe to the slow motion guys and be sure to check out the new Grand Tour episodes every Friday with Amazon Prime, see you next time, yeah, fun, what time is it? flight I'm not fun oh you oh you love mine it's nice I'm going to go back to the hotel and see when I find where you're going to the hotel now I'm going to take a shower I'll probably relax a little your shower in the RV here oh dear okay , okay, let me know you're back at that time.
