[FLOABName]

I feel Vsauce is becoming more like myth busters with these practical experiments. I am ok with this

[Vsauce]

HELLO! We couldn't get the rights to use or show the Street Fighter characters Ken and Zangief so instead we used our totally non-copyright infringing fighters Glen and Glangief. I just Shoryukened intellectual property law in the face!

[carlos]

"May I be excused?"
"SUREYOUCAN"

[besmart]

Can you punch a person's head off? Shoryuken!

[mowu]

'we are responsible'
**1 second later**
'let's knock another head off'

[pokemad]

4:58 I laughed really hard on this part, your "brain" impersonating skills are really good.

[MeLikeBigBoom]

"How's the air"

"ehrr"


hahahaha

[Jynkins]

And then suddenly Vsauce3 turns into Mythbusters. XD

[Vanalos]

But hey, it's just a theory! A Vauce3 theo...wait..

[Jellyinanutshell]

The video starts at 00:00
I got you fam.

[ohkireJ]

Jake im glad your still making vids . . . it must be shocking finding out that you have cancer! STILL KEEP UP THE GOO-- GREAT WORK!!

[josiahbrondyke]

why was the dummy strapped down not allowing lift off? wouldn't that affect the results

[peachycae]

"hi brain"
"hi jake"
omfg I'm ded

[chowstar]

next do what if you were punched by saitama

[ProtagonistOfficial]

I feel like Zangief is not a good representation of the average person.

[crownforce]

Looks like SOMEONE knows the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow!

But here's the real question for you: is it African, or European?

[KaiWolf]

That head didn't fly 187 ft in the air

[jerriustate]

"What if you were hit with a Kamehameha Wave?" DO IT

[CyberChamp]

I'm confused. Is the swallow African or European?

[Shady_Fungus]

Oh come on, you couldn't throw in the Street Fighter sound effect Shuryuken when punching the dummy head?
