- Last one, B.
- [Gavin] Last one.
- [Daniel] Okay, we're good.
- [Gavin] Whoa!
- Hello everyone, I'm Gav.
- I'm Dan.
- We're the Slo Mo Guys and we're incredibly on edge,
right now.
- Yeah.
I'm nervous.
- Why are you nervous?
- Well, it's not just because I'm about to jump
into a load of mousetraps,
it's because I don't want them to go off before I do.
- Yeah.
- This took hours.
- We've spent four hours doing this.
We had a couple of calamities.
- [Gavin] No!
- [Daniel] What even happened, how did that do it?
Was it the one I was pushing?
- [Gavin] I don't know, didn't see.
But now Dan is ready to leap from that ladder,
onto the trampoline, full of
I'd assume a thousand mouse traps--
- I think there is about a thousand we've done now.
- Someone could freeze frame and count.
Let's get out the way.
All right, good luck counting.
Dan, you ready?
- Yeah, I just want to get on with it let's go.
- Good luck.
- Thank you very much.
- I did offer to do it though didn't I?
- He did, he did.
- I would have done it.
- Yeah, but I didn't want to mess up the button trigger.
I didn't want that responsibility.
- Oh god.
- [Daniel] I don't think their could possibly be a jankier
table to jump off.
This is like, horrendous.
- Don't try this at home ladies and gents.
- [Daniel] I'm ready to go into the mousetraps B.
- [Gavin] Okay. Go for it.
- You ready?
- [Gavin] Yep.
- [Daniel] Woah!
It's in my hair!
- [Gavin] Oh my god!
- God! Flip!
- [Gavin] How was that?
I think they all went off.
- I think so.
- [Gavin] I think they all went off.
- Goodness me.
- [Gavin] It's actually in your hair.
Wait, where did the goggles go?
- I didn't put them on.
- [Gavin] You didn't put the goggles on?
- I forgot!
- [Gavin] You're a maniac.
- No I was too excited I was like --
- [Gavin] Oh god!
- I just sort of closed my eyes and hoped.
- [Gavin] We had them, where were they?
Oh they're on here.
- [Daniel] Oh, I got too excited.
- [Gavin] Did that hurt?
- Well I just got like little nips all over my body.
- [Gavin] Yeah.
- Wasn't like, anything really painful.
It was actually kind of comfy.
- [Gavin] Ah.
- The main thing was falling into the trampoline,
to be honest.
I'll just keep this here now.
Ah man, did they all go off?
- [Gavin] I think they all went off.
- That one didn't, let me see.
Shall I see how many of them need to go off, hang on.
I think they all went off.
Look at that, you can tell I gave it my all.
That is dodgy.
- [Gavin] God, you almost Captain Video'd yourself.
- I did what, almost like yeah.
- [Gavin] Look at that.
- I wasn't worried I just went for it.
- [Gavin] That was a tremendous performance Dan.
I can't believe you did it without goggles.
- Yeah I know, I was just like I wanna do it, let's go.
- [Daniel] At this point, my fate is sealed.
- [Gavin] It's one of those things where it's like--
- [Daniel] There's nothing I can do.
- [Gavin] It was at this point he knew
You're in, your hands are in, ugh!
You're like going through them.
- [Daniel] All of them have stayed still and then whoa!
Oh man.
- [Both] Oh my god!
- [Daniel] They all started from the outside and went in.
- [Gavin] That's so cool, it looked like a speaker cone.
- [Daniel] Yeah!
- [Gavin] Look at that crumpled heap!
- [Daniel] All flown up in the air now.
Everything bounces back.
- [Gavin] That was tremendous B.
- [Daniel] My legs are still up in the air still now.
- [Gavin] That was class!
I look like some mysterious sort of silhouette man.
- Yeah you haven't unlocked your character yet.
- So I realize I did the intro wearing a cowboy hat
and I didn't mention the cowboy hat.
Which means the audience thinks that I thought I
could pull off a cowboy hat.
- Yeah you definitely can't.
- I know, in reality it was sunny and I was just trying
to wear a hat, and this is my new favorite hat.
- This is my new favorite hat.
- I'll just pop it down.
That's quite good actually yeah.
- Yeah thanks, yeah.
- I thought that footage was tremendous.
We actually had the perfect amount of mouse traps
to visualize that sort of inward chain reaction.
- You would never have guessed that either.
- Yeah.
- Who'd have thought that?
Because we covered every square inch with a mousetrap
we could see exactly the reaction.
- And in real time because I was so adrenaline
and frantic about them all going off by accident,
which they did while we were setting them up,
I didn't really pay attention to what order
it all happened in.
I didn't even see it.
- No, I think afterwards you pushed the button
and you were panicking because you were like
have we got everything.
Did we get it?
Cause that was the biggest amount of effort.
That was probably an hour per second of footage there.
- That took four hours to set it up
and we recorded for four seconds.
- Yeah so an hour per second.
- Thankfully our camera can stretch one second into
several minutes.
- Makes it worthwhile.
- Using the right camera.
Woo all right, well that's quite short and sweet
but hopefully you enjoyed it.
I always like those simple ideas.
They're often my favorite ones.

Which is a slightly special one.

- Trap a good audience?
- Mouse traps.
- Yep, that's good, that's good.
