How a Pinball Machine works in Slow Motion - The Slow Mo Guys
Now I want a pinball machine!!!
I think the things being said had to be written thoroughly... Very eloquent
I swear to god seeing that machine made me subconsciously smell arcade pizza
One two three four five, six seven eight nine ten, eleven tweeeeeeeelve!
Keep making videos. You guys are amazing
Well this is easily one of my all time favorite videos.
finding out that this is real and not just a windows xp video game gave me a life purpose to get one
crazyyyy !! great topic
10:21 you can see Gav using the camera
Pinball machines are one of the most interesting stuff in slow-mo, hands down.
Nice pinball machine, tho still not as complex as the old school machines, this one looks a little Chinsey by the way it constructed.
The music that plays on slow motion parts is very relaxing what's it called and is it playing slow mo too
So cool to see how it works
my RTX 2080 melted trying to watch in 8k! now i can only watch 144p
Gottlieb did this in the '60's & '70's to design more robust mechanisms and Target assemblies.
What I most appreciate about this one is how the sequence of different shots flows together. It's clear how much time and effort went into capturing all the mechanics and angles in different shots, which combine together to create a seamless sequence that very clearly illustrates how everything is working.
isn't that the same flashlight markiplier bought for his video?
Fair play for filming a live catch. You know your onions 👍
it's gotten to the point where in the intro Gav says "I am Gav" i pause the video and myself say "And i am Dan" and then resume.
what a great machine
Ed from Barenakedladies
This is the kind of video i subbed for so long ago
what's a wanker?
Where is dan
I miss that pc pinball game
I have this pinball machine and it is sooooooooo fun. Great vid
Fantastic cinematography, and you followed the most important rule of entertainment - save the knockers for the end.
Easy to learn, hard to master.
This is my favorite slomoguys video
This is probably THEE BEST and interesting video I've seen this year!!!
It must be strange to make these videos and then never look at something the same again, like a pinball flipper. What an amazing production!
Ayah pin
My grandma and cousin have a big pinball machine
A wonderful look at (and into) a pinball machine. Love the technicality!
I just tried to remove the mouse cursor at 0:41 I'm on my phone...
Gamer pinball rgb
Random similarity for you space junkies: the Canadarm2 (aka SSRMS: Space Station Remote Manipulator System) on the ISS robot arm's brakes use a high voltage (42V) to release the 7 joints' brakes and then a lower voltage (16V) to hold the brakes released with while the arm is in use. Continuous voltage to stay open is a safety design such that the brakes engage in a power loss scenario. The part where Gav talks about the flippers around 6:35 reminded me of our system though I am sure it is not the exact same architecture it does make me think of the SSRMS.
This video is awesome, shame it didn't hit 1m views.
It's amazing over all the years and modernization of pinball games they maintain all the basic mechanical components.
I find it odd that this is your first real pinball machine. I’ve known several people who had personal ones and there were many bars and arcades and restaurants from my childhood that had them. That’s crazy.
I have watched many of your videos over the years and this is probably my favorite. Well done!
As a Pinball fan that is now all shut down thanks to lockdowns, this is my favorite video.
Wow that was awesome. I knew itd be interesting but that was better than i thought
As a professionnal pinball and arcade machine operator, I find this fascinating, and somehow moving. Thanks a bunch!
As someone who has been buying, fixing and playing pinball games for over 20 years I thought I had a pretty good idea of the physics involved. That shot of the flipper rubber deforming was eye opening. Going to have to see if I can notice that in real time.
This is the best video you've done in my mind, next to the WWII tanks.
Where's Dan been?
One of the pinball machines at a place near me is super frustrating to play because the ball frequently gets stuck behind the top flipper, and the game doesn’t recognize it, so you either got to shake the machine and loose whatever bonus you have, or wait 5 minutes for the game to say “lost ball” and give you another one which you can use to knock the first ball out of the crevasse. It’s the only one of the machines I’m actually decently good at too, so it’s annoying haha
I think a lot of people know that Windows Pinball game.
0:42 My childhood!
Have you seen that movie?
0:41 i player it too omg he revived my chilhood
OMG NOOOOO 3D pinball was my liiiiiife as a kid
The best thing I have seen so far in YT.
amazing video never saw this so detailed 👍👍🔝🔝
Synthetic Sound 2.... yeah 😍
This is one of those machines that we try to figure out for about 10 seconds and then we give up and decide to just focus on the game
I love this video
I love the computer pinball game I wish they would bring it back
My neighbor has an old pinball machine from like the 70s and it's amazing seeing all of the mechanics and wires in it, back before things could be condensed down to microcontrollers, etc.
What ever happened to windows pinball? That was the greatest game when internet was down.
EA... 20 pounds for your next ball
What happen the the other bloke?
I about to get my first pin 🤘 les gooo
Me - Why is FIshows just now recommending this to me when I'm subscribed - OH MY GOD I REMEMBER THAT PINBALL GAME. XD
Oh god.... The memories of Spaceball
I never would ha thought watching a pinball Machine in slow motion would be so bloody fascinating.
the reverse video of the shooting of the car on my channel. look and rate)
This video is a piece of art. It's beautiful.
Amazingly intricate machine. I never realised!
Best video of the year
I wanna play pinball now
It saddens me how few views this video has in comparison to their others! I found this to be remarkably interesting, loved the video
More interesting than most of what I've seen this past ten years!
You guys currently live in Texas, but you shoot at 50fps? To be American, you have to shoot at 60fps.
What was the little vial of ochre liquid at 8:12???
Why do I want to dedicate my life to building and designing pinball machines....
I spent many quarters playing pinball machines.
Gav, I'll be honest. i kept forgetting you were playing pinball on a physical machine, and i might have thought i was watching LetsPlay, not SlowMoGuys
you should go to the beach and do those extremley slow motions on the sand or while theres a crab on the sand by the water can you imagine all that in slow motion or when leafs are falling from trees that too
Loved pinball as a kid. Great video!
I feel like I could just watch Gav play pinball all day
I love pinball and this is honestly such a beautiful video.
This was my favorite video of yours. You have made alot of incredible videos but this one just got first place 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
But where is the chocolate?
incredible!!
Slomo guys no more
I love normal Slow Mo Guys videos, but I also love this style of mini-documentary. Really well-edited, super informative!
Never knew so much went into such a simple game. Simple designs to create complex reactions. So awesome.
That laowa gets some fantastic shots my god.
These guys are the new mythbuster
This deserves more views
11:50 So there a mechanical "knocker" behind a digital screen. Why is a moving part still used if it doesn't affect the ball?
The picture of Gav at 4:28 though
You should do a slow mo of a golf tee after a drive. It’d be cool to see why so many bounce so far away.
Skip stone in slow motion. Upvote so they may see
An old style, all electro-mechanical (no computery bits) machine has many many more wonders inside. Such as: A target that scores 5 on any digit needs a wheel with 5 lugs on it that trigger a +1 on the digit. Also the free game clack used to be a normal metal plunger solenoid aimed at the side wall of the main table enclosure.
I played that kind of pinball in my computer back when i was 7 or so.
Jesus is that u
You just gave a perfect closure for my '90s childhood! xD
