I use that type of laptop for work. The amount of times I've wished I'd had a dam to huck that thing off of... living vicariously through you lot. 👍🏼
Those Panasonic Toughbooks were aboslute POS. We switched to Dell Latitude Rugged and will never go back
We used those in the navy, I'm pretty sure the US gov keeps them in business
We used those on my job too, for about a year. Garbage
I have 1 for fun and I rarely use it, but if I do use it it's for the 1440p screen
@donotprikel why?
I appreciate how this video jumps right in, no padding the run time with an unnecessary preamble.
I like it better the other way. Almost seems robotic without a decent intro.

I am genuinely surprised the glass bottle survived lmao.
I wish my phone was that tough! My screen cracked from it falling like 1 foot.
Pretty brave dropping that Nokia, I bet the dam builders were concerned about damages

Thanks to all the ppl that help contribute to these guys, u make amazing things possible
i'd love to see vat19 make another massive bouncy ball that's just one piece instead of two halves to see what happens (doesn't have to be as big but bonus points if it is)
Bonus points if it’s bigger!

Your worries (yes, anxiety), depression, suicidal thoughts, EVERYTHING will melt away and be NO MORE when you lean on God and put your trust in him! When I have physical pain, I literally pray and the Lord quells it, that I am healed! Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! People are bothered by his name. The world hates the truth and wants to continue living sinfully! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous.
I think the formula for their videos unlocks a very childlike part of our personalities. Who hasn't wanted to drop something off somewhere really high? But what sets them apart is that they're so energetic and charming and look like they're having the time of their lives which makes them addicting to watch. Keep it up gents!
You're the best KZheadr in the world
Dasher
Agree, but I think its also just the disconnect. After a long day of life's nonsense and drama, to just spend 20 minutes watching something that just allows our brain to take a break from the days stresses ya know??
hallo

It's not just the stupid fun these guys are having; it's also the banter they throw back and forth that makes these videos great.
Three golden retrievers drop stuff off a dam.
Dont forget Rexy!!! 😂
If we could only decipher their awful accents!
When that bike went down with a toy dinosaur on top of it the bike made a bee buzzing sound and the disco ball broke into some pieces and those three boys had thrown that giant bouncy ball down and that giant bouncy ball had broken in half.
No. I was just thinking the subject matter of their videos is absolutely awesome. However the dudes are so obnoxious and annoying. They ruin the videos "mate." Not only because they act childish but their obnoxious Aussie Oi Oi Oi accents makes it even worse.
Was I not the only one who kept replaying the rubber chicken?
You guys have WAY more faith in that railing than I could ever muster.
These are normally designed to catch everything up to a mid-sized car, so no worries. 👎
It’s literally built in 🇨🇭 why would anything happen to it but I’ll be worried of me rolling off of it like literally just roll off the top
@@r4g3r47 My comment = "I'm terrified of heights" NOT "I don't believe that rail is safe".
@@zencomeseasy602 that's not what your comment implied
@@Itsfatso Genius, if you're scared of heights enough, you can't muster faith in almost ANY safety precaution. People afraid of flying aren't afraid of engineering. Edit: Sorry. My car got side swiped and it put me in a shit mood. Point is, phobias don't care about logic. I could watch that rail stop a full speed dump truck and I still wouldn't go anywhere near it.
Splitting in half is exactly what I thought would happen to the bouncy ball. Two halves glued together never stood a chance against that.
Yeah the glue seem is a massive weak point, I bet the ball broke along the glue seem. It would be interesting to them try again with a ball that was cast as a single piece.
Yup my thoughts exactly.. surprised they didn't have a slowy for the ball breaking
@@annav21 it didn't fall in the same spot as the rubber band ball, so the phantom wasn't looking in the right place
Thanks for the spoiler alert
@@Panthera_Leopon oh..
They need to make a ball that isn't two hemispheres glued together, just one sphere
Much like a cat landing on it's feet, or buttered toast landing butter side down, an iPhone dropped will always aim to land on the hardest surface it can.
I would like to say, as an epileptic, I very much appreciate the warning of the flashing footage, and the fact that you guys put the footage on a white backdrop. Really helps minimize the strobe effect and pain for me.
You can also lower the video speed in the settings to reduce strobing

Thanks
Thank you, can't stand these excessively loud people
2:15 wow man his voice is Amazing
Its weird af. Sounds like back in school when kids would talk while sucking in air
I’ve never heard anyone call a disco ball a mirror ball before.
10:56 I am and it did thank you
15:00 Hey guys! Simple highshool arithmetic, 1Kg = 2.2Lbs. Therefore, the bouncy ball weighs exactly 100Kgs. Hey "Editor Jack", Nice 180° work 👌 there with the 360° camera! 😂 🧇 Pancake! Very cold 🥶 here in Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 🦘🙏
I've done post graduation in maths and i don't know the conversion rates from metric to imperial units.🤣 I've never had to use pounds in my entire life, just kgs.
@@TheReaIestOne you must be a young whipper snapper, when I was in primary school, Australia was just going from pounds £, to dollars $. Now I feel old! 😌
I'm no expert in physics so take this with a grain of salt, but I would expect a smaller bouncy ball to bounce higher. I would guess the greater the mass, the more inertia meaning it would require more energy to stop and change direction (bounce). Plus the greater surface area of a large bouncy ball I think would mean that more kinetic energy was transformed into heat as the material stretches and contracts. Love to see some tests of like a 2 lb bouncy ball vs a 20 pound bouncy ball.
i would guess it reached it's terminal velocity along the way
@@SoneGurkeI haven't had to do much physics calculations in a while so I can't off hand determine what each balls terminal velocity would be if it achieved that while falling. Assuming each balls velocity wasn't massively different when it reached the ground, the inertia of the much larger mass would be much higher. I would think the larger ball would lose more energy through heat as it stretches than the smaller ball, meaning less vertical force back upwards. But it would be interesting to see in practice.
Jiggly, such a jiggly ball, soft and jiggly, um.. 😶
Keep in mind it doesn't bounce from perfectly stiff ground. That ground covered by grass absorbs huge amount of energy from the fall. It would be different story if they dropped it on concrete pad.
That spinning chicken... oh, it's been awhile since I've laughed that hard!
Me too!
I laughed so hard I cried. That was absolutely hilarious. 🤣🤣🤣
I knew the Nokia phone was durable but I DID NOT expect it to survive that fall. Holy crap!
bro its nokia
you could throw it in an erupting volcano and it’d probably look good as new
The only reason they stopped making them is because they'd run out of customers, nobody would ever need a new one lol
The legends are based on countless people doing stuff like this. I used to throw mine with as much spin as possible, as high as possible (which was about a three story house) and try to catch it. Most of the times I did not catch it, and it just hit the asphalt at supersonic speeds (falling + the spinning). Did this countless times without issues. The front and back just popped off and snapped right back.
I would like to see it go up against Thor's Hamer 😆. It probably will be even, or Nokia win
That bike throw was actually an AWESOME demonstration of rotational physics. The tire was literally acting as a directional support because it was spinning so fast. It became too hard for the wind to change the momentum and thus it only slowely twisted in a completely flat position.
🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
Basically: this is how a gyroscope works!
When I flush the toilet after I eat a can of beans I'll always remember your comment
I think they actually straightened out the rims just a bit.
It fell that way because of how the wind was flowing through the bike The wheels weren’t spinning when let go, so it would take a lot to get them spinning that much to cause what you claim Also, you cannot even make such a claim after one event. You need way more data to see if it falls the same way every time or not
Those toughbooks are generally very tough and built to military standards. When I worked at a IT recycling centre we threw one from an antenna tower about 50 meters high and it took about 8 throws before it became inoperable
Anyone in the military or has been enlisted will tell you that "military grade" means it's absolutely garbage.

The bouncy ball flattening before exploding was amazing!
I appreciate that little commentary on the metaverse around 5:06, "I just want people to live in the real world."
The aerodynamics of chair are surprisingly study worth. That was a perfect landing
yeah that was stable af even thought it was thrown
Nice shock absorber and you could re-enter earth on one
Nokia couldn’t ask for a better advertisement.
i like how he refers to those not knowing what a Nokia is as "young tucka's" when he is the young tucka that doesnt know what a disco ball is lol
Died laughing when Gaunson and Herron start having a random existential discussion over the metaverse and the qualities of real green grass. while Stanford is preparing to chunk a labtop over the dam😂

haloooooo
🤣 the rubber chicken was hilarious. Thank you for that gentlemen. Maybe one day consider a glass sphere for some epic coney joney action at the dam. 😉
It might hit the grass though which might not break it like the glass bottle but still a good idea to see
For flat, aerodynamic items, a four foot length of ribbon should serve well as a drogue to prevent spinning and sailing away from the target area.
KZhead algorithm, i am once again in your debt.
That rubber chicken had me laughing the whole way down! Lol. Let's go 44 club!
I need one of those rubber chickens.
I started crying I was laughing so hard.

10:42 Was screaming at first because it was dropped And then started screaming cause it smacked its face on concrete
"too true".
That chicken definitely brought a smile to my face🤣
The rubber chicken may be the hardest I've ever laughed on an HR video, and that's saying something because I have lost it on quite a few of theirs. 10:21🤣🤣🤣
2:33 The legendary Nokia is still on.
I loved that moment 10:10, Gaunson pulling Herron to keep him safe, and not tripping while walking backwards. What a friendship.

That last ball you dropped was Awesome
That last “yEeT” on the glass bottle made me die💀💀
I've seen these guys drop thousands of items, and somehow its still very interesting that an office chair falls in an upright, aerodynamically stable way. With 5 legs.
Makes sense, if you think about it, the base of the chair is heavier than the back, so it has a tendency to fall base-first.
The flight staibility of the office chair was unexpected.
that statement would sound very strange out of context.
@@americanfreedompodcastwith3194 lol
It was kind of like a little parachute since the bottom legs were so heavy and the seat was a canopy.
yeah, saw that last ball failure coming a mile away. Superballs work, because the elasticity is uniform through the sphere because the material density is equal. by forming the ball in two halves, then just glueing it together (even if its the same material) the entire sphere wwould need to be re-heated as to properly bond them. The difference in material density became a sheering plane.
THE NOKIA IS INDESTRUCTIBLE!!!
