d3o on the Discovery Channel AU

[imegatrone]

I am very happy to see the vidoe after you give this d3o appears on Beyond Tomorrow in Australia

[bundawartini]

I Love The Video It Can Increase My Knowledge d3o appears on Beyond Tomorrow in Australia

[NganaJHone]

Steady I Really Like This Video d3o appears on Beyond Tomorrow in Australia

[Ondelendo]

Good, I like that you share this video, I wish success always d3o on the Discovery Channel AU

[bebeheuy]

Nice Video That You Share , So Very Nice Thanks You d3o appears on Beyond Tomorrow in Australia

[AntoMelta]

I Really Like The Video From Your d3o appears on Beyond Tomorrow in Australia

[willamricard]

Your Video Is Very Useful Sharing d3o appears on Beyond Tomorrow in Australia

[jessyjessy4]

great vid you have here

[DragonXtwoX]

So this protects you by turning "hard" on impact? How is that better than just hitting something hard to begin with?

[FishingSouthTexas]

@DragonXtwoX It distributes the impact force. It will still hurt but it won't hurt near as much

[rkward101]

All he had to say was "non-newtonian fluid" ...

[dls430]

no no no, i just don't think d3o would suffice for the condom thing, you should try kevlar!

[SamuelRiv]

The problem is that if you want to use this kind of armor but don't own a d30, there's some hardcore DMs that won't let you substitute a d10 times 3 (though since this isn't in the WotC Core, they probably wouldn't let you use it anyway).

[MrJeansy95]

1:02 that was a very sad fail he didnt evern hit his head the camara just panned all over the place

[darkstars001]

People can jump off buildings and survive with those damn shoes

[DerekLee1]

d3o helmets for (American) football and baseball players anyone?

[str8out]

So if it hardens only on the area it's being hit instead of distributing the force over a larger area as to absorb the impact what's the point? All the force will be transmitted directly to the same point.

[nilo2209]

@str8out wow I guess they never thought about that. They must be doomed now when you have pointed this out.

[touber2011]

I'd like to have been the innovator of this stuff....wow.

[FYProduction]

I love the d3o in my Head Youtek Radical tennis racquet. It saves my elbow from pain!

[Amuro2026]

d30 vs bullet???

[NickDevXT]

Technically this is what scientists were going for when silly putty was made, all the company here did was perfect the original design :)

[DeadStawker]

It may be able to "Stop´" a bullet, but only if it was previously slowed down by a layer of Kevlar or any ballistic material, as it is used more as an internal soft, protection material it will be more useful as the inner layer of a vest, to comfortably absorb and distribute the remains of an impact previously weakened by an outer protection.

[independentwith]

it's not that the molecules are freezing instantly, they just don't have time to react by shocks

[alooferthesexy1]

yay! we invented silly putty :D

[gamerman001]

i would really like to see some bulletproof tests on this material.

[Zake4688194]

MAKE A SIMPLER VERSION AT HOME.

I did this in science, mix corn starch and water.

This is a very primitive smart material.

AMAZING

[byteusa]

Silly putty...  It's silly putty.

[ernestryles]

@byteusa lolno

[noisyneil]

2:45, he still hasn't got the jist. it's not pressure, it's speed!

[TheNinjalazer]

It looks like an orange version of zoombang. An american product. Look it up almost exactly alike

[HAWXLEADER]

hmmm inteligent molecules...

is this forbiden on tests???? it would help at the university...

can they learn how to play vg? coop with d3o would be nice u will be invincible in cod

and will have maximum armor in crysis 2 all the time!!!!

[loboxido]

emmm... how does that help in a vest?... because i'm stick to it, i could bump off?

[gamerman001]

i would surgically inject d30 in my balls so when girls play with them theyre still soft and fun... but when someone tries to bag me their ankle breaks. :)

[NallePu83]

Make a dildo....

Slow=soft

Fast=rockhard!

[wolfmalexander]

if it hardens so quickly how is it going to cushion your head. it seems that would be worse than snow.

[rgdukeman]

Does ti float???

What is the bouancy of this???

looks like good insulation.

[Penissniffer]

Dr Oz.....

[crazycod4killer]

i made some of this in my kitchen Ingredients = 2parts corn starch-1 part water. mix with a spoon until pasty, try it!

[Rymac91]

Can you protect an egg with this stuff?

[strike325]

d30 condoms anyone?

[zocom009]

@strike325 what? d30 condom wtf? what kind of pussy ur girlfriend had?

[kint909]

@zocom009 It's not about his girlfriend, it's about his thing getting softer!

[cisdolce]

@zocom009 The one that could probably crush your junk in a matter of a second via rapid osmosis. It's probably similar to a bear's asshole.

[wamzl]

@zocom009 you dont need a girlfriend to want a bullet proof johnson.

[RunscapeHacks4U]

@strike325 NO! NO! WTF! NO! HOW DO YOU HAVE 49 LIKES!? JUST NO!

[fizwizx]

@strike325 Guess you would need it if your fucking dragon pussy

[strike325]

@fizwizx Or just a really, really, fat woman.

[Vectar84]

@strike325 You god damn right! When you've speed up its became stiff and hard ;)

[ostupidface11]

@strike325 i think he wants it so his butt dont hurt so much lol

[centripetal25]

what if you fall so fast your balls fall off?

[TheSk0rpion]

Description fail...  :D

[pb999999999]

So yes, you can fall slowly but if you fall that slowly you dont need protection either

[thebean38]

18 people fell slowly

[rcflem]

How abrasion-resistant is it?

Everyone is talking about motorcycle armor... what happens if I tear it across concrete for a few hundred feet?

[kenwoodmg]

@ 1:40 he misses and hits the table XD

[xsjad0man]

isit bullet proff lol.

[kenwoodmg]

@xsjad0man no it doesn't stop bullets or knives its just blunt objects and shock

[Armuotas]

Non-newtonian fluid + plasticine goo = D3O .

[Iaminthecloset]

I don't understand, if it hardens this fast on impact it becomes just as hard as the soil you're hitting, then what is the benefit? The floor, or this stuff hitting your head?

[whittal]

@Iaminthecloset

It's about the distribution of force over the whole area of the padding. Distribution of force means less impact on one direct area and therefore less pain.

[WTFID0NTKNOW]

18 people put this stuff on their knees and jumped out of their window.

[corpralkirsch]

does it come in od green

[LogicalWaste]

It's a Toque, Not a fucking Beanie!

[007bondspy]

Australia is soo expensive its a piss take

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

@007bondspy yeah only rich niggas here or dirt poor.

[stin987]

what happens when it falls off?

[miezu]

@TheMashKETCHUP  yes but only at slow speed

[Khalirei]

@TheMashKETCHUP I almost guarantee it won't! LOL

[ZuKahta]

@TheMashKETCHUP Challenge Accepted.

[slice0001]

@TheMashKETCHUP no

[fishcow249]

wonder if one day the stuff would be able to stop speeding bullets

[TehConqueror]

what happens if you make a bullet out of it

[smithy11742]

Id love to jumper punch someone wearing this stuff, grab the material slowly then punch and watch the d3O harden against the guys face on impact.

[Bryan5288]

Actually, this stuff is pretty good. Cops use "3DO" in Bullet proof vest instead of the old Kevlar, which makes u feel feel pretty poor afterwards, because "Kevlar" force causes fleshwounds, broken bones and large concentric bruises – like getting your ass beat by the atmosphere. Oftentimes the impact from surviving a gunshot will temporarily knock the victim unconscious as well, leaving them vulnerable with a guy that has already made his feelings clear through the administration of bullets.

[LunarFuror]

as a helmet, for the points stated below, this is kind of meh.. but as a motorcycle jacket this could be quite amazing, if you take a spill on something like that and hit the ground this could harden and protect you from say smashing your ribs or breaking your arms or something, or so it would seem to me anyway.

[ATBandSK8]

Does anyone know where you can buy just this material?

[darthdude1016]

the point is to deflect the energy if you hit your head with this the damage deflects you still hit your head but energy deflected rather than a blunt smack on the head from a rigid helmet d30 deflects as much energy as possible

[Deathninja5]

"1 thousandth of a second" Thats not soon enough! XD

[JohnHatesTheInternet]

The helmet doesn't make sense. When you hit your head, it's not the skull that's damaged, it's your brain that sloshes around in your skull that causes death. If anything this d30 material seems like it would create more of a ricochet effect and cause more damage.

[Grymmorgan]

@JohnHatesTheInternet I was thinking precisely the same thing. My Saturn, for example, is engineered with Indy car "crush zones" that collapse, absorbing impact. Old Detroit steel would simply transfer that energy to the occupant - me. So, unless this "reactive" molecular process was what absorbed the energy, the hat makes no sense. Especially since he says it won't stop a puncture or anything.

[Grymmorgan]

@Grymmorgan Furthermore, the idea that this material is so remarkable seems ludicrous. I used to have a squishy stress ball that was basically a wad of silicone wrapped in a rubber sleeve that did precisely the same thing. You could squish it all day into any shape you wished, but if you punched it, you'd break your hand. It's simple fluid dynamics. So, again, unless the "smart molecules" are absorbing energy by changing, I don't get this at all. Would this have saved Natasha Richardson?

[3l3ctr0smurf]

@Grymmorgan Yeah, they absorb energy while changing from fluidly to hard

[drotheill]

I want to play with that.

[dcpublius]

Fascinating material, but does it offer actually offer safety? Safety is not about having solid armour at the point of impact. Safety is about ABSORBING and DISTRIBUTING impact. This material alone is sort of like having a helmet only with the outer shell and no impact absorbing inner shell - mostly useless.

[Diifusal]

@dcpublius actually, in a helmet made of this, the inside will be not hard as rock, only the outside.

[Diifusal]

@dcpublius actually, the inside of a helmet made of this, will not be solid as a rock and will spread all the energy of impact while the outside is very, very hard

[WeaponSamurai]

Wouldn't it work that if it hardens once you hit something. Well wouldn't it make you hit your head harder?

[pushinthalimit]

Where can I get an intire soot mad of this?

[fudgeyougatha]

2:08- what if I want to put my beanie on in less than a thousandth of a second?

[majik2hanz]

Perfect for athletic protective cups... rather than having that rigid plastic it hardens and distributes force of an impact across a larger surface area. I;d love to see oneof those cheesy movies where the old kick in the nuts goes awry. The kicker hurts there foot or knee. haha

[DanceClubMassacare0]

i think im gonna get the Stx K18 lacrosse shoulder pads.

[Pepperonniii]

Put this shit all over you under some underarmour and win every fight

[lousueyou]

if you fall slowly u have nothing to worry about retard

[Nemephosis]

"Head injuries are the most common cause of injury or death among skiers and snowboarders." No, that would be stupidity being the leading cause, for being more concerned about how you look then how safe you are and not wearing your fucking helmet. This D3O stuff is pretty impressive though.

[nazgul60]

Perhaps the video was shot with a D3o coated camcorder, it is velocity absorbent after all :)

very good goo! just proves the best really is British

As to falling slowly, if you can change your terminal velocity at will my good sir, you are a far better man than I

[Zhvingy]

You too can make a documentary on your cellphone

[Doomsday2060]

Any type of protection, you know....

Motorbike gloves, silly hats....  condoms.... and so forth

:P

[ipete6]

IMPACT GEL!

[ZerqTM]

like a non-newtonian liquid.. (like cornstarch custard)

[GrinnyJimmeh]

oh man... worst frame rate

[presbarkeep]

oh dude ive seen worse... get ppl using ancient cameras on here with like half-frame per second lol or like 1 fps... but ya this sucks too

[stokmarknes]

looks like 15-20.

[TheEfefefefefefefefe]

i smell military technology

[timmytyphoon]

It probaly causes cancer and rashes and will make your limbs fall off with prolonged exposure.Just wait...once it gets to the U.S. somebody will sue because it failed to stop a runnaway freight train or something like that.

[WeLiveHere08]

@timmytyphoon its been over here for a while man....check out sessions, 661, POC etc

[37uber]

the end bit sounded dirty...

[10sodot]

it could be applied in the sex toy industry

[raffyluvstaffy]

Good vid

[Emovamp64]

What if you fall slowly?

[onvogmasaj]

ya...what if i get shot in slow-motion?

[Emovamp64]

lol exactly

[stickyfreshpurp420]

you die slowly

[Emovamp64]

n with orange shit on you

[niertap]

then it wouldn't hurt in the first place

[Emovamp64]

fall slowly.........on a bed of porcupines!!! :O

[VancouverCanucksRock]

then you're not gonna injure yourself as likely? DUH

[Emovamp64]

uh...huh nvm

[ilovetheview47]

@Emovamp64 then u dont get hurt

[ilovetheview47]

@Emovamp64 then u dont get hurt.

[JonyKickaHoleInDaSky]

@Emovamp64 then you wont get hurt in the first place retard

[YourFatClownAss]

@Emovamp64 Then there won't be any shock to do any damage and the fact that that stuff is soft means that you will have a bit of a suspension.... I guess.

[durge666]

@Emovamp64 You'd win the every science prize in the world for disproving both gravity and inertia. You'd retire happy.

[DeamonRiders]

@Emovamp64 If you fall slowly you most likely won't hurt yourself... s it's the kinetic energy thats decides whether it stays hard or soft and you wont achieve any high level of kinetic energy while falling slowly/not from a high altitude.

[luthierjulesdesign]

@Emovamp64

Well, then you won't hurt yourself anyways!

[Michkuty]

@Emovamp64 lol you dont injure yourself;D

[MrControllingHero]

@Emovamp64 Well then you wont need the padding...

[523Metroid]

@MrControllingHero LOL

[Shabbaluv]

@Emovamp64 speed yourself up

[lan00b]

@Emovamp64 how do you fall slowly? does gravity work slowly. you fall at a rate of 9.81 m/s

[RadioPaul1]

@lan00b Lower impacts, dragging on the ground. Not every injury is from a fast impact.

[pb999999999]

@lan00b No you dont.

[lan00b]

@pb999999999 Yes, yes you do thats gravity... 

[pb999999999]

@lan00b No you dont.

9.81 is the gravitational pull on objects. You dont fall at 9.81 m/s, you accelerate with 9.81 m/s²

Also this is only the case in free fall (with no air resistance). So if you would fall for 1 second you would have a speed of about 9 m/s

If you fall longer, you go faster

[crackyhoss]

@Emovamp64 hahahahahahha thanks man that shit was funny, I needed that.

[olufssenn]

@Emovamp64

If you fall slowly you wont get hurt

[IcarusFlying]

@Emovamp64 then it won't hurt?

[Robalose]

@Emovamp64 Then you probably don't need to be worried about hurting yourself

[bassline0121]

@Emovamp64 it wont hurt.

[eamh2002]

The stuff is JUST like Blu-Tack(blue gum) that you use for paper sticking to walls.

Anyone tried to form a perfect ball then throw it full power at a wall? Not a dent !

[mbcNOOFS]

can you buy this stuff in sheets, or something like that

[SolaceAvatar]

It doesn't "turn into another material" when struck; what it is is "hard" (bouncy) in really short timeframes (ie something getting smashed), but soft in the slower timeframes us poor humans live in.

@smotpokerONE: It's similar to the simple cornstarch/water mix, but instead of being like semi-dry clay, it's a weird mix of bouncy and shock absorbent. They make it into a foam, so it has some space to squish down into, and weighs less.

[MrIanGardner]

my new head racket is made out of this stuff

[apicausation]

Creator says "It's not pressure it's speed"

The presenter goes on to say it's pressure again in the next segment.

[lXlshowtimelXl]

they have lacrosse pads made with this stuff in it

[liamjanin]

dragon skin? hahahaha

[GenerationDarkness]

google it. dragon skin armor

[icedout24x]

fuck you ill google your mom, and youll like it. nigger.

[GenerationDarkness]

@icedout24x

yeah racism, you like it dont you?

[GenerationDarkness]

@icedout24x

and btw, im not black, im chinese

[LakelandNomad]

The British army are currently testing it in body armour at the moment using a slightly revised formula, so far test results are surpassing that of dragon skin.

Ohh and it's appearing in all sorts of products such as mobile phone case's and laptop bag ect.

[anamu7tram]

source?

[funoffan]

bulletproof?

[Ch1n4tw]

not at all funoffan just saves you from blunt hits not from something sharp or thin

[funoffan]

Do you have virtual proof?

[adamalden]

I bet it would add some protection if it were behind some Kevlar... Just a thought...

[henkeboyx]

So many retarded comments on here...

People, stop trying to sound smart, unless you actualy understand how physics work (like the guy who explained why force spread over a large area=good)

For the other people: Please improve your grammar. Please.

You can't just buy a lump of d3o from a store, I'm pretty sure you have to make a bulk order from the actual manufacturers, or from a place that re-sells things you can't normaly get without bulk orders.

[smotpokerONE]

The stuff is a non-Newtonian fluid most likely cornstarch and water with a barrier surrounding it to make it keep shape.I've been making some for my grand kids to play with. looks like a very thick liquid till you try to move it fast it will act like a solid.cost about 3 dollars to make a pound of the stuff don't know about the orange stuff would have to physically handle it to make judgment.

[grifgrif1]

Look on there website theres loads of stuf, id love to just buy some of it on its own, anyone know where or how ???

[nguy3n21]

whats the website?

[Upyour5elf]

Is it possible to buy just the d3o itself??

[LatestUFOSightings]

the future is here....

[GreatUnwashedMass]

It's made out of 'intelligent molecules'... here comes the science.

[COOPROPHAGY]

or the aliens!

why don't they make car bumpers out of this space-goo?

[SwollenEyeballs]

i don't know.. is it new or soemthing?

[bertfallen]

Because bumpers are made the break, they take all the shock and what not to prevent too much damage happening to the car. If you used this stuff you'd just end up obliterating what you hit,

[SwollenEyeballs]

lol

[mciccozz]

can't stop laughing because of the accent (:

summary, anyone?

also, agree with stingray on the crappiest encoding ever

[Stingray454]

omg, who encodes a video in 1fps? This is soon giving me an epileptic seizure

[antdude]

I thought it was my computer!!

[durge666]

@Stingray454 Looks more like 29fps on my screen. I don't see any jerkiness or slowness.

[tricky778]

I wonder if they can make a more active product that can use some sort of electronics to trigger ridgidity around the neck in reaction to a head impact.

[georgeboardman]

one thing, if you fell on your head this d3o would only solidify and you would still feel the effects of a normal "blunt head traumer"

[Tolkienfan72]

Not really, the thing about d3o is that it takes the impact, say 100g (100 times the force of gravity) and by hardening applies it over a wider area. 100g applied over a 20 square cm area (close to the area of the part of your head that actually hits the ground in an impact) is mush worse that if that same 100g was applied over a 60 square cm area. The net energy involved is the same, but that energy is not concentrated on one small spot. That's why it is safer.

[georgeboardman]

yes but my dad does extensive work in the feild of cycling inovations and they looked into d3o "smart material" and he said they found that if it was used in a bike helmet the force impact would still equall out to the same as a normal helmet impact, so he said that the only areas it would trully be usefull in is probably the new "Head" youtek range which uses it to creat a more stiff crisp feel on hard shots.
