Ridiculous Magnets Colliding at 187,000FPS - The Slow Mo Guys

Gav and Dan pull out the scariest things on shelf, and try not to destroy all the expensive equipment in the room with them. Don't mess with large Neodymium magnets. They will crush you.

Hope nobody minds but I’m going to start uploading more frequently. We’ve been filming like crazy. I just need to keep up with the editing!

[smartereveryday]

That was so incredibly violent! I share Dan’s respect for huge magnets. I feel like they constantly want to smash my fingers off.

[silvertonebass]

Dan with the perfectly straight faced and subtle prince Albert joke was just perfect

[ronaldwojtylko]

In order to dispose of the magnet shards, a propane torch works wonders to reduce or eliminate the magnetism.

[captincorpse]

Dan's sly and subtle Prince Albert joke was fantastic

[paulengle]

No joke, the best friend energy is wholesome af, and their reunion video was one of the happiest things I’ve seen on YouTube.

[marckart]

You guys should do this again, but under water! I'd love to see the compressed water exit all these cracks.

[superskullmaster]

Take a moment to realize that these guys have been entertaining us for over a decade.

[BuffPomsky]

Gotta always appreciate dan and gav letting us visualize our childhood playtimes. I remember having so kuch fun playing with tiny magnets and seeing this at this scale is awesome

[brandon]

When Dan said "There were sparks though" my heart completely melted

[Official__RILO]

I hope these guys never stop doing what they do, they are so pure.

[TheTransforcer]

I always forget these guys exist and then I rediscover them again and they bring such a smile to my face. Repeat cycle.

[thatautogarage]

I love that this channel doesn’t spend 50% of the video just hyping up what they’re doing, just straight to business!

[Lonyw]

What's even cooler is how the large shards were spinning rapidly and then instantly stopped rotation because of the magnetism

[YoursUntruly]

It’s really cool how pieces that break off, have a change of polarity and spin around before being sucked back in to the clump.

[BRUXXUS]

Something really unreal about how these slow motion shots looked. None of the shards act like you’d expect from other explosions. Love it!

[skipton]

Two incredible views - the view of the truly frightening power that those magnets have as they self-destruct and the view in the shadows of Gav trying to keep it together when Dan said that he had removed his Prince Albert 😂🤣

[PhunkBustA]

7:41 watching that piece detach and reattach is oddly satisfying.

[brainiac]

While it is sad to see perfectly working magnets getting destroyed, it was so worth it :D The sparks are likely tiny, pyrophoric pieces of the NdFeB material - igniting automatically with the oxygen in the air. Great video!

[WareAndPeace]

Gav and Dan have consistently been making one of the best channels on youtube
