High speed camera, light bulb

[XxPoppycapxX]

@laidesman215 Not with cameras, fps means frames per second.

[eagle16k9]

What camera you use?

[anibal120]

k vacanidad sr

[Sofar2]

Hey cool, at 0:25 you can see the filament evaporate into a small cloud of ions.

[immortalKing011]

LMAO Two top rated comments, one smart answer and one not so smart answer for the slower people.

[BajuriProduction]

@larkar

hello.. i want to buy this footage so i can use for my video with the royalty

..you have in HD quality? honestly i can NOT afford a 2000fps camera which cost $150k

thanks

[BludStatic123]

They should do one turning on light

[maximaman380]

man where can i find an economical camera to do this! its amazing

[cjellwood]

I want to do a cum shot in some bitches eye with that camera!

[Danielsevilla27]

@cjellwood LMFAO

[tryithere]

You murdered an innocent light bulb. Wait till the Luminary Investigative Group Having Time Society(LIGHTS) gets a hold of my report of this. You'll be doing time.

[zeetek007]

@tryithere rofl Best comment ever!

[thewii552]

what kind of camera and software?

[Macius5991]

How much cost is a fast camera like yours?

[jakazza]

AAAAND . . Let there . . not . . be light . .

[lilAngel1808]

good vid. Its very entrancing. 0.o

[deluxedookie]

its the plasma in side.

[Shakcountant]

can u do this with a normal digital camera?

[aafaking]

no high speed cameras are very special and expensive in itself

[blazzor80]

@Shakcountant : I don't think so, because a "normal" camera records at 30 fps max, and this is 2k fps

[Holden599GTB]

@Shakcountant no, you gotta have a speacial hish speed camera that can film many more frames per second

[hihihibadbad]

hi speed cameras operate high speed, taking a lot of frames per sec, so when slow down, it still retain a good frame rate.

[hellomate639]

Look at that AC go.

[bestamerica]

how much air inside the bulb

[paloman95]

There's no air inside the bulb.

[mulbert6]

There's Argon Gas, foo'.

[sugarmamma845]

it really depends on the type of quality bulb. They are made with a partial vacuum and usually filled with argon as mulbert said. The thickness of the glass surrounding the filament can support different levels of vacuums. I've had some low quality incandescent lightbulbs before and they didn't last long either due to a cheap filament (prob. not tungsten) or a bad vacuum or poor removal of combustable gases. There are lots of variables when it comes to such a thin filament.

[imDivineLight]

Ther is nitrogen aint it? such fragile glass will break itself it there's a vaccum inside it.

[hectiky]

Whatever hit it went flying. Those bulbs explode with some force

[Nevada2444]

looks like a BB gun round

[ParaBokGibiHuzurYok]

I can ride my bike without my bike

[MthfkRaver]

It meens Frames per second

[Gettar00]

um thiis is kinda late but i can play the spoons real good

[christiangomez5]

oh yeah well i farted

[elementunlimited]

wtf did the throw at it

[wEaReAbUnChOfAnImAlS]

what does fps mean?

[larkar]

Filmed with 2000 FramesPerSecond

[vicktrickly72]

@larkar first person shooter

[TheNoisySpider1]

@wEaReAbUnChOfAnImAlS Fps means Frames per second

[krsurf17]

@wEaReAbUnChOfAnImAlS feet per second

[SlashVanHendrix5150]

@krsurf17 No. It's Frames Per Second

[laidesman215]

@wEaReAbUnChOfAnImAlS  fps means first person shooter

[tTatmosT]

really? when I do drugs my eyes go like 5 fps somethings less lol

[sweetiemush]

wow then u must have really chinking eyes. :]

[xrpixer]

i have a camera that records 1000 fps!!

[cosmoline626]

i have a camera!! 1000 fus!

[happymerc]

mine records at 1000.1 fps......

[bozidarg]

I can ride my bike with no handlebars.

[TribbleFamily]

Me too!

oooh yeah well i can ride my bike with no hadle bars..

[happymerc]

i can ride my bike without my bike inside out...

[ThinAir715]

I can ride my bike without it being there...

[burninmunkeys]

You completely just pwned them.

[Sonnekalb]

no handlebars, no handlebars...

[mmgmmrg97167]

NO WAY!!

[vanjastanic]

my phone records 12 FPS!!!!!!

[Tibsmar]

I HAVE A PHONE  :)!!!!!!

[notevragain]

i have a phone....wait no bars

[ferrariguy1988]

yay

[ToBeOrNotToBeThatGuy]

Let's see YOU do it better, then.

[samos1991]

i was shooter from aeg! xD

[SamTheWorrior]

light is pretty in slow-mo

[alecworonko666]

crazy

[dawson43]

what the fuck was that yellow thing that hit the light and made it go SMASH!

[larkar]

It is a small dart from a blowpipe, look at my other videos.

[Revo1]

What camera did you use to capture this? Great stuff!

[toughdog6789]

yeah... he has a real fetish for blowdarts...

[zerocode92]

the worlds fastest camera shoots 1000000 frames per second,

[forthashorteez]

This video needs more cowbell

[Bobbytza92]

The most speedy High speed camera in the world record 10.000 frames per second :O...

[tommie314101]

to bad its only 2000 fps but yeah.. kinda cool

[Maymona13]

Can somkeone x-plain to me why the filament in the light bulp burns out when the glass is removed?

[mikiowned]

because it reactes with the oxegen in the air so it is filled with argon to stop it from reacting with the air

[Maymona13]

thank you.

*kisses*

[CyrusShotThePope]

Because with O2, wolfram (the material of the shining thing) burns down. That's why you need nitrate in there

[zezimmaa]

yea or an easy way to understand is that the bulb is a "vacum" and when the O2 is just all the sudden "revealed" to the air it cant handle it.

[thepilotboy]

thats actually wrong, the thing that prduces light in a light bulb is the friction produced betwen the electrons and the (Copper?) filament. in order to keep the friction down and to keep it from producing against the air, and in the bulb(electrons move faster when air is added) lighbulbs arre actually vaccums

[marque89]

its tungsten wire, its a vacuum because air expands when its heated.....

[neo4251]

its not in vacuum, its in a mixture nonreactive gasses, like argon, at less than one atmosphere. this is to keep the filament from oxidizing (with the oxygen in the air)and burning up, and at less than 1atm so when the gas expands from the heat, it equalizes the pressure with the atmosphere outside of the bulb.

[replicon66]

smart answer

[jakedude11]

@neo4251 ಠ_ಠ, wait, what now?

[cheekymonkey242424]

@thepilotboy Filament is tungsten, not copper. Copper melts too low for this application.

[kalatorulstalker]

interesting how it will look a blow because of highest tension applied .....

[Possessd]

woah.. nice

[worldofstew]

it was like a heart beat slowly dieing

[smartpartz]

my life is a black abyss...

[coolbluelights]

emo...

[S4T4TNICO]

lolz iieah "emo..."

[SomeHoboProductions]

that has nothing to do with what smartpartz said

[polytheism]

niice

[CommentingCritic]

Wow!

[xxzxxlegendxxzxx]

wooow

[hacherul]

the pulsing is from 50Hz

[Gian092]

Why can't be 60 Hz?

[larkar]

It is 50 Hz.

[Sosolidfan]

trippy

[sotomizer]

When exposed to oxygen the filament consumes itself...so yes the "Spring" or filament burned...

[HellDevil75]

cool.

[vinylmaniac]

Amazing!

[VILE191011TY12]

DID THE SPRING VAPORIZ?

[teslarobot]

Amazing, at 2000fps you can see the bulb pulsing from the 60hz AC power

[Bytorfan]

how many frames per second was that filmed at? was wayyyy kewl

[LastPaintballa]

looks like 40 fps

[NARUTOGUY1112]

in the 350s-450s fps

[larkar]

As stated in the information, 2000 fps

[Zookhaarh]

:( she died :(

[kajukembotom]

what did you hit it with? that mother fucker was FLYIN!

[rigbst]

hehe thats what she said lol

[Halasir]

Impressive stuff, nice work.

[BryanBeatsYouAll]

did the filament vaporize???

[superbutterzz]

holy shit u beat me u should now add me as a freind an we shall b rivals till the sunsets in fredrens

[k4mik4ze84]

wow, the filament burns out in less than a second on contact with air

[TURDface63093]

ouch

[HJ10]

touch it, i dare u

[whiterose137]

HA! HA! HA! HA! COOL!!!

[VorpalSlash]

I also heard that the melting point of tungsten is 2000 degrees celsius (is that how u spell it?)

[BRAINLES2PIGEON]

wolfmembraam

[soylentgreenb]

"I also heard that the melting point of tungsten is 2000 degrees celsius..."

You heard wrong. It's ~3400 degrees celcius and lightbulbs operate at about 2500 degrees celsius(up to about 3000 for halogen bulbs).

"(is that how u spell it?)"

Yes.

[bazilisginger]

yeah but its argon in the light bulb you turkey

[nevermind1534]

I'm pretty sure that the filament is tungsten, and it is a vacuum inside. You may be thinking of halogen bulbs, which are filled with a halogen, in that case, argon.

[bazilisginger]

yeah could be dude im not to sure either forgot pretty much every thing i learnt at school !!

[julianallees]

OMG< You can even see the Argon escaping, what an amazing video, thanks for posting online.

Yours,

julianallees

1st August, 2008  1:53pm

[BeWiseWithDZ]

Julianellees these lightbulbs don't have argon gas, they are vacuum sealed. You're thinking of Neon Lights, who have gases in them. Different gasses produce different light for Neon lights.

[VorpalSlash]

Uh huh , the Inert Gas is Argon , isn't it?

[johnnyb35a]

amazing... love high-speed camera technology

[VorpalSlash]

OMG the tungsten....evaporated?

[CorruptOne18]

I suspect it reacted with the one of the elements that makes up our air,(or CO2...) mostly light bulbs are filled with incredibly inert gases, so as soon as it is broken the tungsten is exposed to the air.

[DeathIIV]

this is cool technology has gotten far

[vince0o7]

that why you shouldnt play with airsoft :)

[Windrade]

Wow... Well it seems that it beats the mith that you can have a bulb lit without the cristal... It took less than a sec to consumeO_o ^^ pretty interesting!

[kkinsane]

temper temper, jesus, its a light bulb breaking do you need to fight here?

[una2020]

yay!

now ur making assumptions based on no evidence at all!

Using swear words randomly has got to drag it down again, god ur so stupid, do you realise what your doing to yourself?

ahahaha, some people....

[una2020]

lol, thanks for backing up my comment, you must have a below average IQ!

[Nash1972]

I'll think you'll find modern Bulbs are Inert gas filled, older bulbs are vacuum sealed.

The Tungsten Fillament lasts longer that way.. But hey I have been known to be wrong ;)

[Piro42]

You're close, modern bulbs are filled with low-pressure argon. not complete vacuum, but still low enough that anywhere lower than Denver gets to hear that popping noise when the bulb shatters and the air rushes in.

[antandant]

bzzt bzzt bzzzzzztt!

[Mcl0vin11]

AHHH TOO MUCH ELECTRONS!!!!

[una2020]

too many, twat....

[CodaBear2]

That was weird and it made my eyes hurt lol

[nahbeechnah]

whats was the yellow thing that hit it?

[Notoria666]

Read the description.

[MadCatMk254]

WICKED!

[captionpsycho]

awesome.

[ctrlfreak13]

What model high-speed camera did you use to capture this?

[RODALCO2007]

Excellent clip, I did a count too. The impulsing is exactly every 10 milliseconds (½ cycle). 1 complete cycle takes 20 msec. This was recorded in a 50 Hertz network. e.g in Europe, Australia, NZ. Very cool test.

[LostFlashlight]

you know your stuff :) good work did you learn electronics in highschool or something? i wish they didnt get rid of that class :( i wanted to take it. that and mechanics too

[RODALCO2007]

Thanks for your kind reply, LostFlashlight.

I work on the electrical distribution networks supplying Auckland, New Zealand.

Also electricity metering and equipment is a hobby of mine. These high speed videoclips are amazing. Good on Youtube to have this great media available world wide.

[matt2221111]

elements are on the periodic table and theres no tree atoms lol

retard

[mcgherkinstudios]

the filament actually catches fire, hence the smoke. lightbulbs contain Argon (an inert noble gas) to stop the filament from catching fire.

[Swords01]

Any of the noble gasses should work in theory, shouldn't the?

[mcgherkinstudios]

Argon is used because it's cheaper. But helium might be quite funny...

[vincennzo13]

Not necessarily to keep from catching fire. The tungsten filament is already on fire in a sense. The argon is used to keep the filament from fragmenting and melting. When Tungsten melts and fragments the atoms will hit the argon and bounce back to the filament since they will not fuse or combine with the argon...or any inert gas for that matter. Tungsten is used because it has a high melting point as well.

[mcgherkinstudios]

but the fragmentation part is wrong. when lightbulbs cloud up, it's tungsten particles on the glass, so they obviously aren't driven back to the filament.

[vincennzo13]

They shouldnt cloud up anymore, I know they used to when they were just a vaccum but the clouding is the reason they added the argon. My bulbs dont cloud except for dust.

[mcgherkinstudios]

no, there is obviously another gas in your lightbulbs, but i cant remember which gas is used. but it isnt argon

[AceKingQueenJack]

jors1je: youre wrong and abigfbgioger is right wood paper dirt and water arnet elements

[jors1je]

What's absolutely amazing in my opinion is how the smoke exhibits behavior that is similar to that of a burning element (i.e. wood, or other fuel) at a slower burn rate than what is shown. Notice the traces left by the smoke rising..same as something burning slowly. Truly amazing!

[abifbgioegr]

its the Tungsten oxidizing

i assume that becuase it is an element it would burn like one

wood and other fuel is not an element though...

[tehbabes]

'too' intelligent? does that even make sense?

[danny0569]

looked like an m&m they threw at it lol

[jrock420cfh]

i thought it was a bb shot at it.

[flyer892007]

it's amazing how fast the filament burns up once exposed to the atmosphere

[morales808]

what the fuck did they throw at it

[1980biggysmalls]

blow dart

[msfball]

haha its funny how you ask this question

[andrewheslin]

this whole thing is about 3/4 of a second in real time...incredible

[ZITZON]

I paused it on the initial impact crator - fascinating...before 0:01

[elitesuperhaxor]

tungsten only burns when it can mix with oxygen

[REWYRED]

Thats cool! Fuck ya can even see the light pulsing from the A.C..

[stevewesthead]

Umm... no its not. People watch Aurora Borealis and don't know why or how it happens. Why is it stupid to watch something thats cool? Or did you just post that so we could all congratulate you because you know what oxidation is?

lol.. i was ticked that day.. sry.. but it is stupid when people get on here and tell people how it happens and they are wrong and get people confused
