[CosbyTheCaterpillar]

have you ever wondered. "If camera's have certant frame rates (24 30 60 etc) then what is the frame rate of our human eye's like how many frames do we see. that is if we see like that."?

[ShadowAbomination]

Spawn more overlords.

[CosbyTheCaterpillar]

Transcorners dark of the burnt

Thumbs up if you're eating popcorn while watching this.

[SHARDK2]

@Eseriam Holy God I am ._.

[Roidragin]

@Eseriam I would thumbs it up, but I have a strict personal rule of thumbs downing any comment that has "Thumbs up if (insert applicable reason here)". I am most definitely eating popcorn while watching however.

[jeffg24LT21]

What about PumblePop!

[thatfineb78]

It turned inside out

[blitzkrieg1117]

why the fuck does it say high speed video/

[WelshieGuy]

@blitzkrieg1117 The camera that they're using records individual frames ate extremely high rates. So the camera is called a high speed camera.

[R0ckG1r7]

It's like a flower you can eat...

[cmorebutfCA]

If you it in Slower motion, Hold space :D

[AriochStarr]

When it said "High speed video" I thought it actually meant a high speed video of popcorn popping...

[Dreamer25Yup]

[markwort2]

[the747videoer]

5,400 fps is impossible for our eyes to see, we can see up to 300 fps

[SethPlanet]

Congratulations, your Kernel is evolving into a Popcorn!

Have you noticed any consistency in where the pericarp tends to split, or is it fairly random?

[MrLegoman717]

[happyking9]

Transcorners: Kernels in disguise

[codyrhorne]

[zacharytheliar]

[ekriirke]

Too bad the husk blocks everything :(

[0Artist0]

I want to thank science and everyone else that made this video possible. I just watched a piece of Kernel corn pop and blossom in slow motion before my eyes. My life is now complete...

[zangetsu96]

[MobileTurd]

ITS SO FLUFFY

[EyeLuvDance4ever]

I was eating a tub of popcorn and was wondering what it looked like when it popped. Looks cool! And then afterwards, I had to brush my teeth cause the kernel exterior was all stuck in between my teeth and gums everywhere!!!

[djquestionthis]

MOVIE TIME!!

[yourchillie]

Poptimus Corn.

TRANSFORMAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[MeLikeyTacos]

the best part whas when it pop

[hiervince]

BAKUGAN... BRAWL!!!! (correct me if i'm wrong)

[goldhg1fkp]

its like putting on a white sheild

[acidrain92]

wait a minute...so the annoying crunchy inside of a piece of popcorn that gets stuck in your gums is actually the original shell of the kernel?!?!? I had no idea.

[JoserRocksDawg]

Gave me Tears of Joy :,)

[FSUfanatic11]

why is it highspeed if its in slow motion??

[proudbugowner]

@FSUfanatic11 cause to see so many frames per second now that the video is in slow motion, the actual motion recording has to be shot in highspeed.

To play a video 100 times slower and have 30fps, you need to shoot it live at 100x30=3000fps eh? ;-)

cheers to the uploader!

[Supermassively]

@FSUfanatic11 God, I hope you're joking.

[emiloveyouful]

you have to wonder who came up with the idea to pop dried corn kernels...

[Jackspadeproductions]

Wow awesome.

[megaferfer123]

ahaha iv always wanted to know what it looks like being popped..*sniff* now im hungry :l

[duckiesmayrule]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooow

[azareal]

[lkkjsd]

i love popcorn, but for some reason, this video makes me like it a bit less.

i guess i thought those wonderful pieces of heaven were 'made' differently

[zuki2love]

@lkkjsd "wonderful pieces of heaven" lolz!

[lkkjsd]

@TheTriforcebearer So was I!

[TACOandCAT]

@TheTriforcebearer MEEE TOOOO!!!!!!

[schmizjo]

This is the coolest thing ever even cooler im the schmitz kid who recorded this with my dad for a science project.

[internetfanboy69]

what is the water for?

[sugaandspice3000]

@internetfanboy69 the water turns into steam and heat's up the kernel, and of course, once it's heated, it turns into popcorn.

[CosbyTheCaterpillar]

@internetfanboy69 thats oil

[Freak2121GTAF]

@nukehawk56 $270K?

[digitalcyber2x]

Yummy!!!

[Sasukelollipop]

i love how it goes from "imma break your tooth!" to "yumyyumyum!"

[soaponaroapDG]

@Sasukelollipop just a... wild guess here, but have you ever watched arby n the chief?

[faithinrockstars]

it looks like a dove or something opening its wings

[abridges01]

Hi extremeslowmotion, it is not the program, but rather the camera - the Photron Fastcam SA1, that recorded the sequence at 5,400 pictures per second, it is replaying at conventional television/PC rates, hence the slow motion

[extremeslowmotion]

can somebody pleaseee tell what program he uses here to make it extra slow motion and which camera do you use??

[1madaboutguitar]

FAKE

[abridges01]

@1madaboutguitar Not so, it's just recorded at very high speed. But then maybe you know more about popcorn than us!

[1madaboutguitar]

@abridges01 i was being slightly sarcastic mate ;)

[abridges01]

@1madaboutguitar Guess I was being slightly gullible then!

[1madaboutguitar]

@abridges01 I think so, I was also drunk . But today I looked in my comment box and saw i replied to a video of popcorn popping I was like WTF? Ha Ha

[MrLegoman717]

@1madaboutguitar you mean like your moms boob's?

[RisingHitler]

@1madaboutguitar

haha u jus got pwned by a nerd!!!!

[1madaboutguitar]

@RisingHitler Hardly

[RisingHitler]

@1madaboutguitar

[DanieLaixer]

Kernel panic!!!

[JazarsTicy]

Wow, so that's what it looks like

[jaimito951]

hmmnnng...interesting

[001FredRox100]

[KrakenGuard]

[MrShammalamma]

Makes me want to eat it more!

[Quoranation]

How much do these high speed cameras cost?

I want to buy one some day.

[abridges01]

@Quoranation Start saving as high speed cameras range from $00 (check out Casio) to over $100K for a high definition at 2,000 fps system

[rickyony]

@abridges01 A FREE CAMERA!?!? NO WAY!

[Zeke8762]

@abridges01 Well shit, I will take the free one lol

[PwnageKirby]

@abridges01 Wait, free high speed cameras? Count me in!

[piV787ZA]

@abridges01 Whoo $00 Where????

[whoelsebutalex]

[FuckedUpRandomShit]

[devilscape2]

Holy Shit, it's Optimus Prime

[getoutofmyway01]

a thing of beauty is a joy forever

[alundrasrt]

Why does it jump?

[abridges01]

@alundrasrt I guess due to gas escaping as the insides get super heated

[internetfanboy69]

@abridges01 like my sister?

[legolord2x4]

[rpgpunx]
