- Hello, I'm Gav. - I'm Dan.
Welcome "The Super Slow Show."
A lot of things that look very good in slow motion
involve a massive buildup in pressure
followed by a rapid release.
Especially when it's used to destroy stuff,
like fruit, for example.
Do you think we'll ever run out of ways to destroy fruit?
Yes.
- Okay, well, not today. - Not today.
Today we're using fruit to destroy other fruit.
Uh, we did just try throwing the fruit.
Uh, it didn't-- didn't really work.
- Go. - Oh.
Go. Go.
I was aiming for the fruit.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I guess we did get sort of grapefru--
fruit versus grapefruit there.
- Yeah. - You all right?
Right in my grapefruit.
- Painful. - Yeah.
As you can see, very painful.
So instead, we've got these air compressor things,
and we're gonna put fruit in them
and use them to annihilate themselves, I guess.
Before we crack on with this,
should we just see how powerful these are?
- Yeah. Yeah, I'm intrigued. - Okay.
- All right, you ready, Dan? - I think so.
I'll be damn impressed if you get this.
- So will I. - All right, three, two, one.
Oh.
- Butterfingers. - So close.
Three, two, one, ho!
Three, two, one.
That is up there.
Get under it, son!
- Oh! - You were right there!
Oh!
I got a finger to it.
Why don't you bring the remains over?
It's a damn good effort.
It's really hard, 'cause I'm like...
I can't see what I'm doing.
All right, let's fire that at some other that.
Wait. The remains of the oranges and stuff?
Well, not that exact one.
So these air cannons are at 90 PSI at the moment,
which is hopefully gonna annihilate.
The Phantom is gonna be set to a thousand FPS.
Is that Fruits Per Second?
- It is not. - Okay.
- Ready? - Yes.
Right. Three, two, one.
- Ooh. 54. - Feel it.
Look at that. It looks like a "bogey" on the screen.
Hang on.
Playback.
Okay, so this is the tight angle.
This should be delicious.
If it was brighter, I'd stick
on a 90% shutter angle, but...
let's see if we got good impact.
( both gasping )
- Love it. - There's, like, a fine apple mist.
- Yeah. - I imagine it would be quite refreshing
to be sort of underneath that
and just sprayed with the apple mist.
- Oh, yes. - Lovely.
Dan:
the apple is being just peeled perfect.
Gav:
- Yeah, there. - That one, yeah.
Gav:
the split pattern is always quite symmetrical.
- Yeah. Yeah. - Oddly symmetrical.
So you're saying a hundred-mile impact.
Hundred mile-an-hour impact.
Cool.
So this one's orange versus orange?
- Love it. - Expecting it to be juicier
and less sort of bitty, I guess.
- Less bitty. - Less bitty.
- More drippy. - More drippy.
- I'm on the radar gun. - Okay, you ready?
- Yeah. - Three, two, one.
That seemed to come out faster.
- Did you get it? - Didn't register.
- It's too fast. Too fast. - 'Cause I was pointing the wrong way.
Maybe I can measure the speed now.
Doesn't work. Doesn't work now.
Look at the juice.
All the juice going to waste.
Oh, that piece is just hanging up in the air.
So this is 1,800 FPS on our super-tight shot.
What if your mouth was going through that?
- You'd be, like, "Mmm!" - That would be delicious.
Gav:
Should we-- Should we sandwich a fruit?
Like with two apples but have something in the middle?
- Yeah, something fat. - Like a maybe--
- Like a watermelon or-- - I'm loving that idea.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Now we'll get our hero watermelon.
Put this in the middle, and we'll be set.
- Okay. - ( exhales sharply )
You know what I like? The more fruit we do,
the more the set sounds like this.
Oh, sticky, like a cinema floor.
Yeah.
Gav: This melon is thinking,
"Wow, I'm important enough
to be put on my own podium."
- This is brilliant. - Yeah.
Little does it know.
- You ready? - Yeah.
Three, two, one.
It just bounced off the front.
Do we have the other one not come out?
No, I think they both came out.
It just brained the watermelon.
Oh, look at it dripping. You can hear it.
Oh, gross.
Oh, there's the other apple.
- Is it in there? - Yeah.
Get out of there. Look at that.
- For some reason-- - We found he bullet.
This is-- There's something quite disturbing about this.
Just look at it.
( Gav groans )
You wanna try a bit?
Hang on. I need a snack for when we watch it back.
- Oh! - One before the other.
( both imitating explosions )
- Oh! Man. Jeez. - They almost both went in.
The one on the right just didn't have enough beans
to go all the way in.
Well, everything is sticky.
Everything is sticky, but that's the sign of a good video.
- That's true. - Some of that footage looked top, too,
- especially the P.O.V. stuff. - So difficult to get.
Getting the fruit to hit perfectly and perfectly in focus,
everything has to go right, and thankfully it did.
- That's true. - So what was your favorite shot?
It's all apples and oranges, really. It's just, uh...
That it is. Hopefully you enjoyed that video, too.

How fast am I?
You're just not very fast at all.

Gavin step out from behind the camera
and get his hands dirty.
It's true. I actually I had to use soap.
Did you get both of them dirty?
Both hands. Unbelievable.
Well done.
