Arcsaber Z-slash speed test - 414km/h

[Andygamekilla]

That smash was literally at the front court, Lin dan could probably hit 500mph if he was that close .........

[TurboNosHayabusa1]

Keep pressing 5 for "everyday Im shuffling..."

[nitinoctane]

pressing again n again '2' . i heard the sound first then the racquet movement

[bieberappleful]

smash the air

[pete9129]

The video was just out of sync... omg

[PurpleStarssss]

crazy guy haha O_O

[dewiauyeung]

press 3 super backhand lift

[bad3007]

No but just to say brah is normally wrote bro

[bad3007]

TO ALL....how can shit be holy?!?or poop WTF!?!

[TheHighwaytoHell]

@bad3007

u mad brah?

[sheunghyun]

i like to hear the sound..

[lollolzlolx]

if that goes into your eye,

your a goner......

lol

[MsDaean]

[kyudooooo]

CRISP.

[macmaaac]

HOLY son

[Wezerkid316]

HOLY MARY MOTHER OF GOD.

[Aznthuglife]

Man that raquet so fast i heard the sonic boom before he even hit the shuttle

[SaintSonics]

@Aznthuglife ...

That effect is because of recording error in the video itself. It's nothing to do with the speed of the racquet.

Assuming that it was NOT a recording error, what you've essentially implied is that the sound was created before the racquet made contact with the shuttle.

In reality, a physical impact converts motion into vibrational energy, i.e sound. You can see the player swing because there is light. You can hear the sound because the vibrational sound waves reach the camera.

[Aznthuglife]

@SaintSonics -__-

[SaintSonics]

@Aznthuglife And by saying that the sound was heard before the racquet was seen, you are implying that the speed of light was at least momentarily slower than the speed of sound. This is certainly not the case. Speed of light is constant at 3 x 10^8 m/s, while sound is around 300 m/s.

The Arc Saber Z is indeed impressive, but not quite yet enough to manipulate the constancy of the speed of light. =)

[SaintSonics]

@kraznot Did you not see my first comment?

[SaintSonics]

@kraznot The first sentence of the first comment, in fact. Use your eyes.

[derBUmann]

@SaintSonics that just rocked :)

[stealar1]

@SaintSonics By the time it reach there...i think badminton would the hardest sport in the world...

[jgbreezer]

@SaintSonics actually, what you're referring to is the speed of light in a vacuum as constant and the fastest speed anything can move relative to its surroundings. Speed of light/gamma/x/uv/ir/... rays through other materials varies a bit (slower).

Speed of light in air is slower by a tiny bit, speed of light through glass is a litle slower still (by about a ratio of 1.3, and depends on frequency of the light how much it is slower by the substance its passing through).

[SaintSonics]

@jgbreezer No, what I was referring to is the speed of sound in air. If you think the speed of light in a vacuum is 300 m/s then you are wrong by about a 10^6 fold difference, because the speed of light is 300 million m/s.

[jgbreezer]

@SaintSonics I knew the two speeds (or near approximations of), I was being geeky; and ran away with myself on a slight sidetrack unintentionally.

[Lizzio1980]

@SaintSonics Speed of sound is at 1300mphs or even above to break the sound-barrier. Beause you hear sound doesn't mean it implies it breaks the barrier

[zammystinks]

MY EARS JUST POPPED!

[UJJSTR]

i used that racquet and it was awesome and fastest smash i could do with it was 197km/h am buying that racquet

[SkeletronicX]

I think i heard the sonic boom o_O

[Chowmeinaddict]

too bad Tan Boon Heong beat that XD

[yazlx]

@Chowmeinaddict isnt that Tan Boon Heong?

[Chowmeinaddict]

@yazlx nope, tan boon heong is left handed and malaysian, this is some japanese player

[yazlx]

@Chowmeinaddict oh, thanks for the clarification.

[rockandsucker]

@Chowmeinaddict How is that bad?

[Liqu1dd]

HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK

[R3v0LuTi0nz]

his not even holding arc saber z-slash

[arundegr8]

HOLY COW

[Keilxxax]

HOLY POOP

[Glam0ry89]

HOLY SHIT!

love that racket

[imNG1940]

HOLY FUCK

[SadayoshiAndo]

HOLY SHIIIT

[ankushrulz]

jus love the sound of that smash.....

[zOMGitsAlan]

HOLY SHIT
