  • Non-standard golf ball... Plain and simple. Golf balls deform, but not this much. I teach college physics. Some of you need to take my class.... Hehe

  • looks kile a strawberry at 0:13

  • why did i read the comments i was all happy when i watched the video now im annoyed

  • Is this a video or a scientific discussion forum lol

  • wo the fuck is Nixmix24

  • It is possible, this is a completely realistic video.

    It really gives you a glimpse of what happens on such a small timeframe.

    ^ Ganja ^

  • 150 mph? That's just car crash speeds. Looks very BS to me. It is a golf ball shaped object, but whatever is in it is pretty liquid compared to actual golf balls.

  • Looks like a glitch in the matrix to me

  • NO WAY!

  • no. that's not true. that's impossible!

  • Ahh I stand corrected indeed, what an idiot I am.

  • who ever says this is fake does not pay attention in school

  • @TheAlexmiller12 OR..They one has not learned about this in school yet.

  • @UkShuffling or, school does not teach about less important matters, such as the compositions of golf balls. Doesn't mean everyone who didn't study this will think it's fake anyway.

  • @bf2lover42 Exactly

  • if it was doing 150 mph it was traveling at 220 fps, but if it was traveling at 70,000 fps it was traveling at 47,727 mph which is correct? not the latter mach x62.8???

  • @doogle1071 fps doesn't refer to feet per second, it refers to frames per second: i.e. 70,000 images were taken every second, which is how people can record in such slow motion.

  • @reefchief8 That sounded like a dirty joke XD

  • fake

    

  • it behaves like a liquide ! amazing !

  • That's how Chuck Norris makes his eggs.

  • @crashnburner187

    Wtf, it's hitting a steel plate (read description)!

  • @USSBN734

    Wtf, ofcourse it's a REAL golfball. If you read the desciption : 150mph!

    Golfballs are elastic, if you don't belive me - check it up!

  • @12pontus seems hard to believe that they can warp like that without breaking.

  • @crashnburner187 break a pencil in slow mo. it will bend a lot more than you think

  • If i had a dollar for every pixel/fps this video had. I'd have 3 dollars.

  • fps confuses me

    let me get this straight

    1fps is super slow

    90 fps is smooth

    but 70000fps is really slow? -.-

  • @ancientsea1 It's recorded with 70000 FPS meaning that it can show u 70000 pictures of 1 second making it possible to play ultra slow:

    example, a 1 second recording running at 40 FPS would take 70000/40 = 1750 seconds to play, if that's the case here, this would be a recording of 1/(1750/30)=0.017143 seconds.

    The human eye sees with 10 FPS in dark and up to 60 FPS in greater lightning.

  • @WoWTrygin your trying to say the eye can only view 10 FPS in dark?! does that mean life can lag? You sir...I call bullshit on you. I was stunned by your comment until I read the completely arrogant statement of seeing in 10 FPS in dark...

  • @CLOFS Our eyes sees in picture and if the world "cannot lagg" we would be seeing infinite picture a second leaving our brain to transform infinite information into picture which is impossible for anything. So yes, if you think about it when it's completely dark outside and you spin at a rate where it normally wouldn't be blurry it actually is =)

  • @WoWTrygin you ma'am, just made no sense.

  • @WoWTrygin Our eyes recieve input at an average of 60hz. Our brains cannot interpret extreme speeds and defaults them to either a blur, or you miss it completely

  • @ancientsea1

    Playback occurs at 25 frames per second (or occasionally other speeds, but we'll us 25).

    If you film at 25 fps and play it back you get real time footage.

    If you film at 1 fps and play it back, every second of footage covers 25 seconds of real time - the footage will appear sped up by 25 times.

    If you film at 100 fps, it will take four seconds to play back every second of real time - this is slow motion.

    At 70,000 fps, every second of footage takes almost 47 minutes to play back.

  • @ancientsea1 The 70000 fps is slowed down on purpose. If you played normally you won't be able to see every frame.

  • Next time take a golf ball instead of a balloon.

  • One of my professors at nursing school made us watch this today in class. Pretty interesting.

  • @sairuhhxD ....how does this tie in to nursing at all?

  • @Motive11331 Honestly I have no idea hahah. He tends to get off into these rants and by the time ten minutes have passed he's talking about something completely irrelevant to nursing. 

  • fucking egg.

  • wow no way

  • no way. amazing

  • this is not a real golf ball..

  • fake

  • Think about it. All a golf ball is is wound up strings with some resin. Get that thing going 150 mph to a dead stop, and it's gonna move.

  • Fake

  • i only counted 69,000 fps :\

  • dont give a fuck if real or fake, still cool

  • stop commenting on whether this is real or fake. If any of you had actually taken the time to search for this, you would see that the PGA and R&A tested this themselves here: /watch?NR=1&v=00I2uXDxbaE

    This video is bullshit.

  • It's probably got a bit of flubber on it, that's all.

  • is a moron in no lesser words. The shaft and head of a golf club absorb a considerable amount of energy upon the impact with the ball which is translated into bending of the shaft / wave energy which is why the deformations would seem to be less in a video showing an actual golf ball / golf club hit.

    And Titanium is far less dense than steel, albeit its strenght to weight ratio is far superior to that of steel it would take a lot more of it to equal the mass of the steel plate.

  • @ThemindofAaronF fucking THANK YOU. somebody on the internet with some knowledge of how physics works.

  • I will not comment on wether or not this is real or fake because that is played to death on this video. I will comment on the ridiculous nature of comapring a steel plate to the head of a golf club though, and even better comparing the impact of a golf ball on steel to that of a golf ball on Titanium. Anyone who has commented, or made any assertation as to the golf club hit at 130mph being in any way shape or form similar to the ball hitting a steel plate which has considerably more mass

  • i call bullshit

  • this is actually real. no matter how hard something is, it still has some give to it. if you dont believe me, watch this: watch?v=00I2uXDxbaE&feature=re­lated

  • can i copy this?

  • This, sir is an egg.

  • Am I the only one who noticed 150 MPH????!!!! Im pretty shure THAT would explain why it freakin flattened out like rubber!

  • Looks like a golfball full of water. . . . /:

  • /watch?v=00I2uXDxbaE&feature=r­elated

    theres the real one, done by the USGA this video is FAKE now all of you can shut up ^_^ thumb so everyone else can see it

  • This is a real golf ball. It's actually hollow inside, and the vibrations from impact causes the ball to flubber like that really, really fast.

  • how stupid can this get? people complaining about different english speakers on a golf ball xD

  • What the heck?

  • Awesome, but I dont get how it doesnt crack...

  • looks real to me

    

  • Bullshit, not a real golf ball.

  • @USSBN734 it is becoase thats what makes ity bounce, its not rock hard ir it will shatter in the impanct of the golf club in compresses then 'pushes' out and goes faster, thats why they bounce when you throw them on the floor (concrete)

  • @badwolfshamma Yes, that is true. Doesn't change the fact that this is not a real golf ball. It is a rubber ball. The USGA has made a video of what a real golf ball does under these circumstances. It deforms, but not nearly as much as that.

  • @badwolfshamma he must have hit hard otherwise your right

  • @badwolfshamma Alright, his right, but is it my left?

  • @USSBN734 it probably is... have you ever seen a cd in slomotion in a cd drive, same thing...

  • @USSBN734 retard

  • @USSBN734 lets see you stay the same shape after being shot at a steel plate at 150mph

  • @USSBN734 There are two types of balls: spin and distance balls. Spin balls are made of rubber which is covered with a thin layer of urethane or synthetic balata material. Distance balls usually have a cover called Surlyn which is a very firm, durable material and have a softer core. So they are mostly made out of rubbery materials that will definitely change shape at that high of a speed.

  • @AUG351 It's not because the type of ball it's because everything is a spring Hooke's law of elasticity.

  • @AUG351 Not like a water balloon though.

  • @Nixmix24 I don't remember right now, but I think that if you watch golf on TV the ball looks way more stretched it would look with speed alone.

  • @bf2lover42 I know the ball would warp and even stretch a bit, but this is a bit unrealistic. It looks computer animated. I think the ball would break before it did anything like that. Of course I could be wrong, but I find it highly unlikely that a golfball would react like a water balloon even at 150mph. It's too rigid for that much liquid-like movement.

  • @Nixmix24 You know, materials behave very differently with impacts.

    Your hand might not be able to squeeze them, but you can't squeeze a rubber ball either. And they deform a lot.

  • @bf2lover42 I realize that. But the simple fact of the matter is that golf ball shells are a hard plastic, not rubber. I could see a rubber ball doing this but not a dense rubber ball wrapped in a ridged plastic shell (which is what a golf ball is)... I've seen real high speed footage of a golf ball being hit and it didn't look like this. It's obvious that this is just a computer animation. This is a good example: /watch?v=2Y57pw_iWlk&feature=r­elated

  • @Nixmix24 I am a Mechanical Engineering student and I actually took my time to check some physics powerpoints. In the section about elastic collisions, there were images of a gold ball being hit, and the ball was as deformed as this one.

  • @bf2lover42 A gold ball? Or did you mean a golf ball?

    At any rate, gold or golf, I would like to see your evidence that you mentioned. You could be right, but I'm still not buying that a golf ball turns into a water balloon at 70K fps. For that to occur, the ball would, at the very least have to be made of the same material throughout. You might be able to make the argument that one of the many substances can do this, but certainly not all of them. Again, this is obviously computer generated.

  • @Nixmix24 There is the obvious possibility of the images used in the powerpoint being "fake", but here's a test of a golf ball under pressure.

    watch?v=Uk_rZI9tOFc

    As you can see, the outer shell and the paint don't even start chipping until it has deformed beyond it's tensile strength.

  • @bf2lover42 Ok so after watching that video, you've provided me a strong case for my own point. If you notice at :15 you can barely see a crack in the paint on the left side. at :18 the ball has obviously split and shortly after, the ball totally breaks. If you compare that to this video, you will notice that the ball turns into a pancake at :06 then bounces off of the wall and caves into itself at :19 totally undamaged. That is far beyond the capabilities of a golf ball as shown in your video.

  • @Nixmix24 Do not forget: in the vice the ball was "trapped", in a collision it is free to transfer it's compression into movement without structural failure.

    I still think it's like AUG351 said, it is a golf ball made to behave elastically.

  • @bf2lover42 It's not necessarily "trapped" because the sides have ample room to expand on the sides. You have to realize that the ball in this video would have to have the same amount of pressure on both ends due to Newton's law. Your video shows that a golf ball obviously doesn't have the ability to flatten out completely. If you can show me a video of that machine smashing the ball at 150 mph without it breaking or ruining the ball in any way, I would concede that it is obviously possible.

  • @Nixmix24 "machine smashing the ball at 150 mph"

    This video shows a ball with free movement. A machine doesn't allow it.

    The ball was "free" on the sides, that's what made the tensions accumulate there instead of being dissipated trough elastic deformation.

  • @bf2lover42 If a machine can smash a golf ball and spring back at 150 mph, that would simulate the same force as launching the ball 150 mph. This is very simple physics... You may be a mechanical engineer student but I'm a physics student.

    In this video, the ball was smashed FAR beyond the breaking point demonstrated in the video you gave. The fact that the ball didn't chip or fracture in the least bit is further evidence that this is a fake video. Your video says it all.

  • @Nixmix24 The problem is that your physics department probably does not have the equipment used to test materials.

    But if you shot a golf ball at steel plates, it would simulate the collision with the driver.

    Oh, and the ball used in this video was probably a balata. This footage isn't exactly recent.

  • @bf2lover42 There's no use in dick measuring when common sense and basic physics answers the question of the legitimacy of this video.

    On average a golf ball, when hit with a driver, travels at 180 mph and a club is swung at about 120 mph depending on the person swinging the club. It would be reasonable to assume that you would get a similar effect if you watched someone swing a club at a ball in slow-mo. In every video, the ball bows but it never flattens. Watch my link again. This is fake.

  • @Nixmix24 No dick measuring on my side.

    Again, you keep assuming it is the same kind of ball.

  • @bf2lover42 You keep assuming that it isn't. It would have to basically be a ball with a rubber-like shell and a gelatinous interior... (if any interior at all).. At that point, the video would still be deceiving.

  • @Nixmix24

    You forget that velocity has a direction. A ball getting hit by a golf club travels in the same direction as the club head after the collision, so its change in momentum is the exit speed (180 mph). in this case, the ball not only stops, but it changes direction, so the change in momentum is much higher (in this case, neglecting losses, 300 mph). Clearly the force the plate exerts on the ball is greater (nearly two times greater) than the case of a ball being hit with a golf club.

  • @kindofmagicmike Didn't forget, that's why I said it would have a similar effect, not the same. You're wrong anyways. The momentum of an object doesn't double in the opposite direction when it strikes a stationary surface.

    The point is, if anything, the ball would at least crack if it warped like the one in this animation. It's very possible that this ball isn't a standard golf ball, and in that case I would bow out. It would have to be a rubber-like shell with a center that behaves like liquid.

  • @Nixmix24

    "The momentum of an object doesn't double in the opposite direction when it strikes a stationary surface" I'm not saying that, I'm saying the CHANGE in momentum is twice as much if an object stops and turns around moving at the same speed than if it's motionless and starts moving at at some speed. Force is dP/dt (which I'm sure you know), so if the change in momentum is greater, than obviously the force will be greater, deforming the ball more.

  • @kindofmagicmike My mistake. I thought you were implying that the ball was heading in the opposite direction at 300 mph.. Which would be ridiculous, of course.

  • @Nixmix24

    Also what are you basing your assumption that the ball must crack off of? 

  • @kindofmagicmike Here's a video that shows the ball's cracking point

    watch?v=Uk_rZI9tOFc

    This video shows what happens to a real ball when it's hit in slow motion

    /watch?v=2Y57pw_iWlk&feature=r­­elated

    People don't realize that nearly the same amount of force is acting on that ball in this video and the latter video. the difference is that the "wall" is heading towards the ball rather than the ball heading towards the wall. Even if the club was faster, the ball would not flatten as in this video.

  • @Nixmix24

    "People don't realize that nearly the same amount of force is acting on that ball in this video and the latter video." That's where you're wrong I'm afraid. Like I said before, the force in this case is MUCH greater, because the balls momentum changes by nearly twice as much in this case. In one, a ball at rest starts moving. In the other, a ball is moving, stops, and turns around. Not only that, but the change in momentum occurs in a smaller time frame (F=dp/dt ) requiring more force

  • @kindofmagicmike You're not taking into account the fact that the force acted on the ball from the club is more than 1.5x the speed of the club. I'm not saying that the force isn't greater in this video, I'm saying that it's close enough that the ball would act similarly in the 2 videos. I'm sure the ball would warp more in this situation, but not to the point that it would flatten out. You're also ignoring the fact that if it did have the speed to warp like this, it would break.

  • @Nixmix24

    "You're not taking into account the fact that the force acted on the ball from the club is more than 1.5x the speed of the club." this statement makes no sense (the rest of your post does) and i still doubt your authority to say that the ball must shatter, as the ball in the video you posted could very well be a ball with a different tensile strength, plasticity, and even temperature than the one in this video. even glass can bend and warp surprisingly in short time frames.

  • @kindofmagicmike "...the force acted on the ball from the club is more than 1.5x the speed of the club." Makes plenty of sense. If the club is going at 120 mph, the ball has at least 180 mph of force acted upon it depending on the club. But, this doesn't matter because now you're trying to tell me that the obviously real golf ball in my example isn't valid... I mean, come on man. I'm pretty sure they would have mentioned if there were any abnormalities before crunching it.

  • @kindofmagicmike Also, and this is VERY important, you would be more accurate at your 300 mph mark if the wall was solid like a brick wall where the ball would be taking on nearly all of the forces acted upon it since the wall wouldn't have any give. Watch this video again and you will see that the wall moves significantly thus absorbing quite a bit of the forces. This brings your number much closer to my previously mentioned number of 1.5x the speed of the club.

  • @Nixmix24

    agreed, the ball appears to move at about 2/3 the speed it originally hit the plate with, and since the plate doesn't return to its original position some energy is lost, HOWEVER: this doesn't mean this video is fake, as the video you posted of the driver hitting a golf ball was taken at a MUCH (1/7) lower frame rate than this, so not only is the force on the ball much less, but some of the warping is not recorded, making it perfectly reasonable that the videos appear different.

  • @kindofmagicmike Ok I think it's time to agree to disagree at this point. You're reaching.. Sure, ok, it's possible that the ball in the real video could have totally flattened like a pancake, warped like a water balloon, turned into an egg, and then returned back to a realistic shape in the split second this video could have covered since it's 7 times faster. Keeping in mind the ball in this video hit an obviously unstable surface and it still turned into a water balloon. Perfectly reasonable.

  • @Nixmix24 After some extensive use of my Google-Fu techniques I think I have tracked the original video. It was on BBC. Could be a report on a new type on golf ball made to be more elastic.

  • @bf2lover42 Are your talking about this ball or the ball in the video you provided?

  • @AUG351 Wikipedia FTW

  • @AUG351 I have very firm balls with a softer core that change shape at good speeds too!

  • @USSBN734 no shit sherlock, its probably something made out of solid works

  • @IAmCjcj11 Its real...

  • @USSBN734

    actually golf balls do that :d

    they are very flexible

  • ahem this is fake have any of u noticed that yet?

    

  • @TheLuigiman1234 You think you're some sort of enlightened skeptic by merely dismissing as fake? Have you seen similar footage to make such a claim? This is slowed down more than 2000x actual speed, so such effects are not noticed by the naked eye.

  • @csmybuttt Also the claim of 70k fps is a lie, as can be easily demonstrated with a little math.

  • @USSBN734 Care to demonstrate this "little math"? I'm not saying you're downright wrong, but for every 10 people claiming "fake" on any given video, 8 of them are talking out of their asses.

  • @csmybuttt 70000 fps. 150 mph is ~ 67 meters per second. A golf ball is roughly 42 mm (0.042 meters). At 70000 fps, the golf ball should move ~0.00096 meters. It should take it 1 second to move the last mm (70000 frames). Instead this video is showing jumps over 1 mm at 67 meters per second per frame. That brings the fps closer to 70 than 70000.

    And videos of real golf balls filmed at real 2000 fps prove this video is a fake.

  • @USSBN734 Fair enough. I stand corrected.

  • @csmybuttt NP. Whenever I see videos like this I always ask the question: Does the math work? It is like the afgan sniper or whatever they are calling that video these days. It took about 2 minutes to determine that wasn't a video of people being shot. Even a 50 cal doesn't have the KE to bodily lift a 70kg man. 52 gram projectile at 882 meters per second. KE = MV^2... It is a video of rock chucks being blown apart with high powered rifles, being passed off as humans being sniped.

  • @USSBN734 It took about 5 seconds to figure out that wasn't a video of people being shot, because anyone with eyeballs could see it was ground squirrels on rocks. The morons who think that video is real have obviously never seen a person, or a mountain, or fired a gun at anything.

  • @USSBN734 different speed,different make,different landing surface,different temperature,different composition???? all factors that can variate your mathematical equation explanation. all balls are not the same and behave differently depending on various factors. same with tennis balls.

  • @USSBN734 Assuming that the 70k fps figure is correct, and the 67m/s figure is also correct, then we see somewhere between 45 and 100 frames in this entire video. Your 0.00096 figure is a speed measured in meters/frame, not a distance.

    I agree that it isn't a real golf ball, b/c the core in a golf ball is harder and compresses less. I just dont understand how we can see through the information presented in the video that it's a lie. It's not enough info.

    Let me know what i'm missing.

  • strawberry ball 0:12

  • My favorite part is when the gold ball bends

  • its nice and all but the real question is.....will it blend?

  • @Garzavideos123 Yes, it blends.

  • @Garzavideos123 it was confirmed by blendtec that golf balls will indeed blend a while ago

  • @Garzavideos123 so will i have to make a yo mamma joke or chuck norris joke or a joke about the dislike bar being the size of justin biebers penis to get 2 ta higher rated comment

  • @Garzavideos123 er yeah i think they did that already

  • @Garzavideos123 it got already blend so ur comment is stupid...bye

  • 0:27 is an egg

  • I didn't know they made rubber golf balls haha.

  • No way a golf ball can bend that much without breaking

  • there is no way in yuma a standard golfball could compress that much without shattering.

  • Is that real!!!!!!

  • can someone tell me this please:

    What is the equivalent of a second in this video compared to a second of real time?

    (milliseconds, microseconds, nanoseconds, etc)??

  • @Wolfboy183

    There's no way of knowing unless you knew what framerate they rendered the video in, which I don't, anyone else?

    For instance if the recording actually captured 70,000 FPS and you played it back @ 30FPS, it would take 38.8 minutes to watch what's taking place in only one second.

  • Click on the video and Hold Spacebar for extra slow motion!

  • @TonyTrue3 That really works! Thanks! I've been downloading vids and watching them in slow motion using the VLC player. What a waste of my time. I'll just click and hit the space from now on.

  • @bogushavis LOL your welcome

  • Apparently everyone in the comments has a PHD in English.

  • the video is screwed for the first 5 seconds

  • Wtf

  • White strawberry at 0:16

  • hey this is a wobble ball at 5 mph

  • Fake

  • Not real

  • @Steven6501 read top rated comment....

  • It's sad to see how many people don't really get English, and how many variations of it there are. British English (BrE), American English (AmE), Canadian English (CanE), Australian English (AusE), etc. Most of them have developed their own unique dialects, pronunciation, idioms, vocabulary, etc. So don't think a word doesn't exist just because YOUR country doesn't use it...that's highly ignorant. Spelt is indeed a word. Just because it shows wrong on here only means that youtube is using AmE.

  • A ball traveling at 70000 fps wouldn't travele at 150 mph. more like 13 miles a second! you should change the title.

  • @DevilDog9409

    Frames Per Second, not Feet Per Second

  • @DevilDog9409 fps = frames per second. the rate at which the camera takes 'shots'.

  • Jizz in my pants :3

  • NO FUCKING WAY DUUDE!!! THATS JELL-O!!!!

  • The camera must be fucking god darn expensive...

  • no fuke way this is real

  • I spelt my melk today. :'(

  • Stop being ignorant cunts...both spelled and spelt mean the same thing. Just alternative spellings. Open up a dictionary.

  • fake and gay

  • @smosh108 you make yourself sound stupid

  • FAKE IN MY ANUS

    

  • This looks like your mom's boobies, just slowed down of course.

  • @Skelpolu real fucking mature

  • @lhrmeonom I know. I tried to be funny and failed, hardly.

    kill me.

    later.

  • This is very real. It's one of the ways a golf ball goes as far as it does, the dimples in the texture help the ball to distort and catapult itself

  • @smosh108

    "the dimples help the ball distort and catapult itself"?

    That is not what the dimples are for; they are there for aerodynamics, not flexibility. They reduce drag.

  • Were not douchbags it's fake as ur moms boobs

  • why must you post fake videos?

  • so if i drive my car in a wall going 150mph my car with turn into a kids boucy fun house and i will be okay? :3

  • @kival71

     You're a douchebag with no sense of humor. Have fun in life. Oh wait. That's not possible.
