Daily Drop: Glass Paperweight

[Optimystic]

Sure it will break, but will it blend???

Somewhat entertaining, but did you guys seriously put a 31 second ad in front of a 90 second video? No way that's worth my time.. and I can't see how anyone can stand for it.

I usually tab over to Cracked or Facebook or something until the ad is over.

So THIS is why we haven't gotten the "Let's Play" Unskippable yet! Well... okay, it was cool enough to be worth it. Though I'm not so sure how neat the dead fish will be. Thanks, LRR-ites!

Sweet, you guys got a high speed camera.

You guys should do a crossover between this and Things on my head. Pure awesome would occur.

 

[Spudgun Man]

Awesplosion! Take that you holding-down-of-papery feind!

 

[Firia]

I... don't know what to say guys. o_o

 

[StreetBushido]

Simply awesome. An excellent addition to The Escapist!

 

[Impluse_101]

Obvious Captian Obvious likes dropping things.

 

[Tilted_Logic]

If I could watch everything shatter in slow motion I wouldn't feel so guilty about knocking over a few vases here and there...

Honestly... guys; I know your direction is "let's just feel the site up with press released and video clips", but every day breaking something else? And THAT'S IT?
Please - give some actual CONTENT. Remember content?

You mean like the four feature-length articles we run in each weekly edition of the magazine? Or the columns from folks like Shamus Young, Ben Croshaw, Bob Chipman, Dr. Mark Kline, and JP Sherman that get published every day? Perhaps one of our original web comics? That kind of content?

i tried to imagin how that would work but i just can't picture it lol dropping things on paul's head?

 

[Galad]

reminds me of brainiac for some reason

I enjoy you guys over from LLR, but there is such a thing as over saturation. >.>

Love that music though.

 

[antigodoflife]

Kind wanted it to go slower

 

[PrototypeC]

Can the camera slow it down any more? Not a stellar start, but this looks like it'll be a really good show. Looking forward to next time!

I loved the idea from the start. Who did the Music for it, was it Bradly Rains?, Reigns?,..whatever it was awesome?

 

[RTR]

So pretty...
Here's an idea: play the footage back in slo-mo si we can see the object rebuild itself.

I've always liked stuff like this - slow-mo explosions, stop motion videos of plants growing, stuff like that. It allows you to see into a world where things usually happen too fast or too slow for you to see it properly =)

though i wonder how Graham and the others got their hands on a High Speed camera..
far as i know those things WORTH a fortune.

They rented it. You're right, those things cost a huge amount of money. They had to rent one out and they only had it for a bit. See this here blog post: http://loadingreadyrun.com/blog/?p=1992

GOD I can hear that theme all day!

Why are we interested in slow-motion destruction anyway? It's like when teenagers combine random items, utterly destroying both but just for the impulsive laugh for when it IS working... for a few seconds.

Time Warp meets the Escapists looking forward to the premise
and poor everyday objects xD.

On the LRR forums, they said they rented it
