  • How many times do you practice your scripts? No joke, please reply?

  • @erikdude1111 Not a whole lot. Lately, there hasn't been time to rehearse before filming day. We'll do general practice as the video equipment gets set-up and then 'scene specific' practice just prior to filming those segments. Maybe 5 or 6 run throughs before the camera rolls and then probably 4 or 5 actual takes. It's not the best way to do this, but scheduling additional time for rehearsal is usually even more difficult.

  • Whoa the rubber stopper exploded right after you went under the table that is what I call perfect timing.

  • @videoman5747 Well... Editing does exist...

  • Can liquid nitrogen freeze

  • @gaylordman123 Yes. See our video called "Let's Freeze Liquid Nitrogen!"

  • @brandola1971 We get liquid nitrogen by going to the Test Lab fill station.

  • @byehiguy No, not really. Unless it's really wet, wood can handle it fairly well. We usually do our demonstrations on wood tables for this reason. We completely destroyed a plastic table in the past...
