This is a compilation of my top 5 best time-lapse videos from 2022.
It features an extremely long, 450 day, potato time-lapse, which is followed by the blood time-lapse because you guys liked that very much. After that, in the 3rd position comes the whisky and cigar time lapse.
I had to give the 2nd position to the Yellow watermelon in soil time-lapse, which has fewer views than the red version of it, but this time the watermelon sprouted, and it's a better video in general, just for whatever reason youtube didn't push it, so this will be new to many of you.
The very best time-lapse on my channel from 2022 is the whole watermelon time-lapse, which took an unbelievably long time to create, 609 days.

Agree 100%, I love the cigar + Whiskey one (the lil cinematic & the music really ads to it as well) Gotta love it :D
I can't imagine the number of stuff he records at the same time so we don't wait real years for a new video.
he probably has a job in the meantime or something
of course you just need to buy 10 go pros and put the lighting on. just remember to change sd cards every x days. you can have a job in the mean time
How many cams do they have haha
He records it a year before he posts
“Where’d you get that blood from?” “Don’t worry about it.”
Never in my life did I ever expect to find potatoes So moving🤯
Was that a pun
@@Borsalino1 legend says he’s still asking that question till this day ofc it was
P
@@aiden_gamering9088 😂
The fact that he literally was touching those potatoes after a year with his bare hands was horrifying 🤢
The watermelon still being recognisable as such after a year was somehow horrifying
It was a awful and interesting thing to witness, especially when it finally popped. Disgusting lol
that’s gmo for ya
@@frwystr nice, that's a good thing then!
@@dinamosflams your testosterone levels are below 200 ng/dL
@@frwystr imagine evolving hundreds to thousands of years to evolve the perfect shell that protects your fruit only for some mf on the internet to give it to gmos
i find it magical that the potatoes somehow puff up sometimes as if theyre trying not to die. Its sad but also very cool
They're rotting I think
ik you didn't ask but what's happening is gas is being produced from the rotting insides making it a potato balloon practically
OH MY GOSH THANK YOU, I WAS KINDA WONDERING WHY THEY LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE GASPING BUT DIDN'T CARE ENOUGH TO LOOK IT UP MYSELF.
@@sefy5082 lol
I can't believe that this guy stood with a camera for so many years ! You are superhuman!
Well I think that he left the camera on that is taking a video while he went to go do something else after hours later he comes back to check on it to see if the camera is still going
nah really
i thought he stood there completely still for a fucking year
@@rowanbaxter6398 yeah same I was flabbergasted!
@@andrewle6303 r/woooosh
I love stoping by her to see something in minutes that really takes years, I love the stuff and can’t imagine how expensive this is, keep it up!
That brings up a good question, how expensive *is* this?
@@JatPhenshllem It depends, I think they make múltiple videos at the same time, soo maybe 1 good camera, the food, a good pc for render and edit.... So for start about 2000 or 3000 $ and for the food depends but no more than 60 per video, buut maybe im totally wrong
Initially it's probably a lot, but afterwards it's probably a really cheap and relatively easy kind of content to make
I dont
Quick reminder that this dude is probably doing another timelapse for us right now and we dont even know about it
Not sure why, but the watermelon in soil video could make me cry if well edited and produced. The cycle of life, seeing the plant grow from nothing is so fabulous it can get me emotional. Slightly like Yann Arthus Bertrand's movies on the beauty of our Earth, this type of video is so fascinating it manages to express the beauty of "growing". A total mystery, a "why" without any "because", it just grows and gives life. No explanation possible. That green colour is genuinely refreshing.
I love how the potatoes started growing instead of being eaten by maggots
When I die I want to be buried, the thought of all of the remaining energy left being used to feed more life and feed that energy back into the world brings me some peace.
It made me sad when the potatoes started to die, I was hoping to see them planted so they could grow.
Same here...
D for Dehydration
I've never been so emotional about potatoes before
Sad about potatoes is crazy
I was sad about the watermelon at the end. After so much time of decomposition, it turns into a hard substance. Watching that silent and cold ending where once there was life and now is dead and forgotten, is sad
The sugar precipitating out of the whiskey was my favorite
Evaporating
@@parallaxlq1556 precipitating, the sugar didn't become a vapor
Not sure if only one who cried when I saw the melon seeds grow, and the spuds die, and all the macro-arthropods running around. Just to think moulds and bacteria are so powerful, and we just wipe them away, we trample on their home (the soil) with no thought (well I do), and take them for granted. They can live in minus degree conditions, when we would freeze solid…..a whole world under our feet that gives us the food we eat. This worlds amazing, thank you for sharing the beautiful video with us all. You must have the most patient and kind soul to do such delicate work. I truly hope the appreciation of this biome hits home with anyone who wasn’t quite sure how important soil microbes are. ❤
It's a damn melon
Now imagine you had a camera set up to observe the studio and kind of show the flow of faster time lapse exhibits getting shuffled in and out around the really long term projects like the potato.
Awesome job and great picks! I really enjoyed the potatoes and slice of watermelon in soil. It was interesting seeing a time lapse of new life emerging from decay. Also did not expect the whole watermelon to last that long! It stayed green (different variations, but still green) for about a year! And the way the dried juices curled away from the dried rind at the end was really cool!
the fact that a watermelon can (at least on the outside) be perfectly fine for over 450 days is crazy
Agreed! I was surprised too - I thought it'd give in way sooner. Kept me on ym toes :D
I think it also depends on the conditions in which they are kept. I remember when I was a kid my grandma rolled a watermelon under her bed by the end of the season and preserved it there for very long time (maybe even by Christmas or something. I can't remember exactly. Several months for sure and there was snow outside when we ate them.) So I guess a perfectly intact wetermelon can last even longer in a cold dark place.
Im obsessed with your channel!! This takes commitment! Kudos 👏
Thank you so much!!
She's right
@@PhotoOwli love how the potatoes turn into plants and then rot and die
apparently rotten potatoes are the closest smell to a decaying corpse, think about the absolute STENCH of the room he does these in 💀
I hope you had a good year. I'd love to see a bamboo time-lapse, as bamboo is supposed to grow incredibly fast and I'm definitely interested in how fast it really grows
About 97cm. There, problem solved
@@JatPhenshllem I know the facts, I wanna see it tho Anyways, thank you
@@die__birne1743 :)
@@die__birne1743 they take a long time to start growing from a bamboo shoot but speed when they do
The total length of all these 5 time lapses is 27,458 hours or a little over 1144 days or just over 3.1 years. I have so much respect for you doing this.
I'm amazed of that potato lasting for almost a year without water
Thank you so much for your efforts and letting me& people know what's happening to things in time.
Your time lapses are so relaxing, I watch them to sleep and this is really cool! 😊👌
i was watching the video, then i started packing my backpack for the gym and i was really fascinated when i heard the beautiful music that you use in your videos, it's really touching my soul, and i like your work also, it's really interesting to see life growing and going ^^ thank you
Thanks for the wonderful content. Happy new year 🎉
I really didn't want this video to end it was absolutely amazing . I hope there are many more coming in the new year. Happy New Years Eve. 🎉🎆
You too ❤
As a former produce employee, nothing else tops the stench of a rotting watermelon.
My friend, you’ve never had the luck to smell rotting soybeans.
it was beautiful to see the small seedlings of watermelon crawling their way up towards the sky emerging from the rotten fruit
You have the best time lapse’s
Thank you so much! This make me very happy!
the potato story is so heartbreaking
pondering what would happen if I left this bag of potatoes in my infinite void for a year
scp moment?
Sorry to ruin it if it's not void it has no air/oxygen so it would mast likely not change
@@cboi2368 :(
Loved the melon in soil, that was awesome to watch.
I'm impressed how this guy gives his whole life for us
I had some white pumpkins growing in my garden when I moved into this house. I collected them when ripe, and displayed them in my kitchen. They took over a year before they started (visibly and externally) breaking down, much like your melon!
Wow.. nature is fabulous👏🏼😍
Amazing Work man i cant believe you spend so much time on this
The music that you select is very calming/relaxing, and the moments when there is no music at all...that's also very calming and gives an ASMR vibe. Well done!
Imagine leaving a sigar on a glass of whisky for later just to find out that after 28 days it all disappeared.
Everyone gansgta until the potato breathe
the plant from the watermelon is so beautiful I could cry😢😢😢
happy new year mate
It's so interesting how the blood looks exactly like a dried up lakebed
Very interesting, thank you!
This is incredible thank u💖
Glad you like it!
This is my favorite time lapse channel
it's impressive how long a watermelon can remain a watermelon
Thank You❤
Very nice vid ! 😊
I'm curious to see where the potatos would have ended up if they were in a basin of water that you filled everyday.
I wonder if more potatoes would geow
@@pinkpizzasticksgaming4147 probably
@@AloneSitoYTTM infinite potato glitch
A humid environment is enough for the potato to actually start growing a huge stick like if it had been planted. And when i say "humid" i mean basement humid, thats enough. Fascinating how these things can grow anywhere
So put them in Florida and they take over after 5 months
Good idea to do compilation videos every now and then. Probably easy in terms of effort but very convenient for viewers who want something longer to look at. Win win situation.
The ones where a plant sprouted were really cool
Me: that’s the weirdest looking mold I’ve ever seen Me later: oh It’s a potato baby
The way the blood dried up kind of reminded me of lava, the way it dries up and leaves that similar detail of cracked surfaces, it reminds me of earth as a whole.
nobody: what did you done for past two years This guy : watched a whole watermelon decaying
I like how the larva's entire existence in life was to eat the watermelon and then die shortly after
So that’s where Minecraft’s poisonous potatos came from.
Thanks!
Thank you for the super thanks! I don't know how I missed it. You are awesome!
Your cameraman really needs to get a raise for capturing this video continuously for over a year just for our entertainment
I can’t believe the ghost drank all the whiskey
the amount of dedication this takes is bizarre
What actually happened with the potatoes when they suddenly puff up, deflate, and then the plant dies?
the potatoes made me cry. remind me of life. you come perfect on the world. trying your best to be you and do succes in live but couldnt find the right place or time and die without a good reason :( wish u all have more luck out there than me. struggeling a long time now with money if i had one wish left i would wish that everyone is happy. and healthy
The unimpressed mold face in the evaporated Johnnie Walker was pretty funny to see
You should do a cup of sugar! Love the videos btw
Thanks
This guy of all people has a more consistent upload schedule than some KZheadrs that literally just watch another video and give a reaction, and sometimes puts in a raid sponsor. They got the EASIEST JOB ON EARTH AND THEY STILL TAKE TWO MONTHS TO UPLOAD A NEW VIDEO
Legendary content
That watermelon really put up a solid fight against decomposition!
The blood one was really cool
Man, I also hate when my whiskey decides to drink itself
Why I don't understand is HOW can you film so many vids? How many cameras do you own? lmao let me explain, in order to post so many vids, each recording a timelapse of more than 100 days, you need to have a lot of diferent cameras recordong diferent things at the same time in diferent places. How big is your studio?
Sometimes all that is on my mind is “that food is being wasted” 😂
the potatoes breathing😭
How the hell did he get so much blood????
It's easy! hahah
@@PhotoOwl Yes... Gust... Tell me how? I can't even imagine 😅😅
@@None22820 Here in Austria you can buy blood at the butcher. 1 liter is about 1 Euro/1 USD

The potato one is gross yet interesting and educational showing that potatoes grow into other potatoes
its good seeing potatoes growing potaoes
W camera man
Hopefully someone sees this comment Sometime...
Props to the camera light and to the lights!
This man deserves a lot of likes fir day Timelapseses
Having worked in produce in the past I can smell that watermelon the second it finally lets go. One of the foulest decomposing fruit smells by far.
man these potatoes taste kinda funky
When the blood dries out, forbidden lollipop!
those were some premium ass potatoes
Took those potatoes long enough to finally be ready to eat 😋
😋
Time lapses make me want to live every moment to the fullest as life goes by so fast. like the time span of the Blood.
Props to the cameraman for standing there for so long
This man walks into a grocery store and the entire produce section begins decaying
I just learned that whiskey drinks itself
Those potatoes just didn't want to give up
That’s so interesting
the potatos made the "eyes" and i realised that the eyes were feeding off the potato to grow enough to last on its own, thats why they were kinda empty at the end. if the potatos were in soil im sure they would have grown. at least, im pretty sure thats what happened, feel free to correct me if im wrong.
This was incredible. The only thing that it was missing was showing the growth of another watermelon from the plant that emerged from the decaying one.
Hi @PhotoOwl, what gear do you use for your time-lapses? I'll bet you've already covered it but I looked in your description where KZheadrs often list their gear but didn't see anything. I'm keen to start recording plant growth but would like to know what others use before I go making the wrong decisions.
the potatoes started a whole ecosystem
The watermelon turned into wall paper.
Moment with potato it's like life and death, beautiful
I'll have potato-nightmares now
