Mousetrap Chain Reaction in Slow Motion - The Slow Mo Guys

Do try this at home. It's awesome.

What I think is cool is that what is also in slow-mo is Dan's pain reaction-response: you can see the time it takes for his nerves to relay the electrical signal to his brain and then his brain to react to the pain.

Dan Gruchy is the manliest British soldier around. Who else would willingly slam their hands on a table filled with mouse traps? He has definitely earned the title of #DanTheMan

This show is turning in to Slow-Mo Jackass really quickly.
And I love it!

[Klamath]

Each time I watch this, I pick a different mousetrap to focus on

[lambopickle]

I love how after Dan just did that and is probably in lots of pain, Gavin's first reaction is to say, "What an amazing experiment."

[JumpyPlum]

Dan's thoughts throughout the video:
0:44 - this is a bad idea.
0:54 - oh, shit, this really does hurt.
1:24 - THIS IS SPARTA!!!

[Draco_-mkzv]

Oh, the lense cap was on. Guess we'll have to do it again.

[MyMultiColour]

Dan isn't scared of anything. That Military training and all. 

[Steaktage]

This might be the best experiment they've done yet!

[allhailskippy]

Oh man. This was beautiful!

I can only imagine the bad feels the moment before your arms hit the traps.

[DoctorWhovian]

OMG Dan's face the entire time is the best. Mousetraps, what mousetraps? I just see his hilarious expression the whole time.

[mirkobarat]

I love how whenever Dan is obviously suffering, Gav just zooms in on his face, so we can all watch his suffering.

[royboy]

poor dan, damn you really are the manliest man of them all

[Grattenj]

Dan's expression was priceless. Very cool seeing how the mousetraps were just floating in the air.

[monkeyman-]

That just shows how slow the human reaction time is compared to the mousetraps

[MustardSeedish]

The things Dan does for our entertainment. Thank you for your sacrifice. LOL!
