(bass-heavy dance music)
- This is the Ezee Golf Swingless Golf Club.
- You don't even have to swing it.
- No. All you have to do is push a button.
(cracking sound)
- Oh my gosh!
(laughter)
- I tried to get some slow-motion shots with my GoPro
at 240 frames a second,
and you can see in the video
it doesn't really give you a very good view
of what's actually happening.
One.
Ah!
Oh, it split it in half!
So I got my friends from the YouTube channel, Kuma,
with the really nice camera.
How many frames a second do you guys shoot with this thing?
- Uh, we're at 2,800 frames right now.
It can go up to 6,000 at usable resolutions.
- I'll link them below if you want to check out
some of their incredible footage
that they do in slow motion.
We've got to get a good shot of this thing and how it works.
What does the compression look like on the ball
when we actually hit the ball?
Let me know when you're ready
and I'll count down from three and go.
- All right.
I'm in focus, whenever you're ready.
- Okay, three, two, one.
(laughter)
- That was awesome!
That was way cool. - [Dan] Look at this hole!
Did it make an actual hole?
Oh, a little bit.
No, it just left a little white mark.
- [Todd] Did it go through? - [Dan] No, we're good.
- [Todd] Awesome.
(thumping synth bass music)
- Oh, it's still fast!
It's still looks really cool, though.
L love how that pops out.
I tried to keep it from kicking back,
but it still kicks back.
Let's go slower!
All right, so we're 6,000 frames a second.
That like 720p?
- Yeah, 720.
- Okay. So not as high a resolution,
but hopefully get the slo-mo shot.
- [Todd] All right, ready.
- Okay, three, two, one.
Oh, yes!
- [Hunter] It stuck.
- [Dan] Look at that!
(laughter)
Whoo!
- [Hunter] No hole.
- [Dan] Wow.
(funky electric piano music)
- [Dan] Oh, that's much better.
- Oh, yeah.
- [Dan] That is pretty rad.
The golf club even goes completely out of frame.
It kicks back so hard.
- But we can even,
what we can do here is we can still keep the resolution.
As we cut the horizontal resolution,
you actually get more frames.
So if we want to go even slower,
we could probably chop it down,
just get like a strip right here.
Just see if we might be able to get up to maybe 10,000.
- Yeah. Let's try that. - Want to see that.
Let's try that.
- [Dan] Look at this, he's balancing it on his shoes.
It has to be so stable while I hit.
You probably have to be careful like,
when it explodes you can't jump.
- [Todd] No yeah.
- [Dan] You gotta have steady hands.
- It's kind of like, like a sniper just (takes deep breath).
- [Dan] You actually breathe like a sniper.
- Yeah.
- That's great.
Here we go, three, two, one.
Yes!
- Money.
- Didn't stick in the blanket but,
that one felt good, it didn't kick back as much.
(dancable electric piano music)
Oh, that's money!
See that ball bounce?
Boom!
You can see the ball just compress.
(laughter)
You ever shot a golf ball before with the camera?
- No, first time.
- Nice.
- Done eggs.
- Yeah.
Done eggs and soccer balls and basketballs.
- Oh, that reminds me.
I've got another thing to do. - You going to shoot an egg?
(laughter)
That would be rad.
- So, you know how people these days
are a lot fancier that they used to be?
Like, parents and stuff?
And so, whenever they have a baby,
they don't just like, say we're having a boy or a girl?
They always have to find creative ways to do it?
So, I've got all these golf balls
that explode pink or blue poweder.
So, these are gender reveal golf balls.
Let's try it out. Let's hit one of them and see what happens
with this exploding golf ball.
I've been hesitant to use it with the swingless golf club.
With this driver,
you really wanna keep powder and stuff from going in there.
You wanna keep it like lubricated and nice.
Because if it gets too catchy,
the balls not gonna go as far.
I feel like we've got all the shots that we need.
We can now like, cut this thing open
and see what's inside of it
and see how it works a little bit more.
So let's have a little fun with it.
Let's explode some golf balls.
Look at that set-up over there.
- [Todd] Okay.
- 'Kay, three, two, one.
Oh my gosh!
That was like the cheapest golf ball ever.
(dancable electric piano music)
Oh!
That looks so much cooler.
It just happened so fast.
- [Todd] Yeah, so I need to just frame it up
just a little bit or go a little bit wider
then you can, like the explosion mostly is out of frame.
- That's sweet, the plastic breaking.
Okay, let's do it again. - Looks pretty cool still.
- This is fun, this is behind the scenes.
This is going to be one short part
inside of the main channel video.
But it's so critical if you can get the shot.
I just don't have the skills or the actual hardware,
and the experience to do it.
So it's nice to have friends that do.
How much does a camera like this cost?
- More than our car.
It's probably about 60,000.
- [Dan] 60,000, wow.
- [Todd] Okay, ready.
- All right.
Here we go, three, two, one.
Oh!
Let me try it, let me try again.
Three, two, one.
That one is better!
That one flew better.
Okay, that one had better powder in it.
I feel like there was more powder in that ball.
Or maybe my expectations were just a bit lower,
so I was happier with it.
But we changed the angle on this thing.
Now we're gonna see what it looks like.
(percolating synth music)
Boom.
Whoa, it like, it went, bounced a little bit.
I wonder if it's because usually it's set up
for a golf ball that is harder.
So usually it would hit it
and it wouldn't kick back as much.
But because it's so light,
it's like a dry fire almost.
All right, should we do one more?
- Yeah, we can do,
do you wanna do like a wide, wide shot,
get you in the frame, as well?
- On one.
Three, two, one.
Oh!
Yeah, there we go.
(dancable synth music)
Oh, that's so cool.
That's really cool.
- Look at the pieces flying.
- Whoa, the white pieces going everywhere.
That's cool.
I'm glad we got that shot.
- [Todd] All right, ready Joe.
- All right?
- [Todd] Yeah.
- Wow, that was awesome.
- That all right?
- Yeah, that's sick.
(bass-heavy dance music)
- And for the fun shot.
Okay, this is what we're thinking now.
Will the golf ball hit by the swingless golf club
shatter glass?
That is the question.
This is some brown-looking vase.
9.99.
We are going to set it,
I don't know where.
Maybe right there.
Maybe, that's so close.
And then we're going to fire it.
If it doesn't go through the glass
there's a good chance we're gonna get
a very hard ricochet of the golf ball.
This is probably not the smartest idea.
Good news is, my wife left her sunglasses inside of the car,
so now I'm gonna look super fancy and be safe.
This has my laptop in it.
I'm wearing it like a bulletproof vest on the front.
This is either the dumbest or
the smartest thing we've ever done.
We're about to find out.
- [Todd] All right, ready when you are.
- Great.
Three, two, one.
Ah, yes!
Whoo, look where the ball went.
The ball just went right here.
- [Todd] Oh, that demolished it!
- Did the ball even hit that thing
or did it just come right here?
- [Hunter] Golly.
- Did you see that?
Did anybody see the ball?
- [Todd] No.
- I don't even think it hit that.
I don't see a mark on it.
I think it just came straight over to here.
(synth pop music)
Oh, that is so cool!
And the ball didn't go any further.
Oh, that's amazing.
Wow!
Those shots were incredible.
Now we need to go and take this thing
and cut it open and see what's inside
and see how it works.
But huge thanks to the guys at Kuma Films.
Go check them out.
I'll put a link in the description to them.
They do great slow motion stuff.
If you haven't already,
go check out the video where we show
what's inside of the golf driver.
And we haven't seen yet, like how it works
and how it operates inside so,
I'm really curious to go and take this thing apart now.
Yeah, fun day.
Thanks guys.
- Thank you, that was fun.
- Picking up the garbage for those of you that are asking.
Yes, we're picking it up.
- We just have a few more on the court.
But I'm just gonna go on the court right now.
But the grass is clean, so kids can play here.
