Reality always look better in slow motion. Even the most humdrum 1 events can seem like the most dramatic moment of an action film.
慢镜头中的世界总会显得更加精彩,即使是最无聊的事也可能变得像是动作片的精彩镜头。
This certainly seems to the opinion of the 'Slow Mo Guys', who decided 2 to wrap hundreds and hundreds of elastic 3 bands around a watermelon, bracing 4 themselves for the moment the combined pressure leads a dramatic explosion and red faces all around.
“slow mo guys”二人组貌似也是这吗想。他们这次决定用上百条橡皮筋捆绑一个西瓜,压力会引起西瓜爆炸,果肉满天飞。
The pair - famed for their love of slow-motion destruction - spent 20 minutes wrapping the bands around the fruit, and then recorded the action with a camera that can take 1,600 images per second.
这个二人组正是因为他们所热爱的慢镜头破坏视频而红遍网络。他们花了20分钟的时间把橡皮筋套在西瓜上,然后用每秒能拍1600张照片的照相机记录下了爆炸的瞬间。
They used a Phantom 5 Flex 6 camera to record the action, which provided them with high-definition footage to keep for posterity 7.
他们用Phantom Flex高速摄影机记录下这个画面,这台摄影机为他们记录下了高分辨率的影像资料。
The video is part of a series of slow-motion videos, 61 in total, posted by the pair on their YouTube video.
这个视频是他们一系列的慢镜头动作影片之一,他们一共制作了有61个视频,全部放在了Youtube视频网站上。
Previously 8 they have tackled a computer with a sledgehammer, played golf with an apple, and exploded 'bottle-bombs', capturing each moment at a fraction of the pace of real life.
先前他们用一个大锤破坏了一个电脑,用苹果玩高尔夫,还有瓶子炸弹,把这些时刻当作真实生活的碎片捕捉了下来。
The pair do not go to lengths to explain their motivations or what the audience is witnessing. Instead they seem to enjoy nothing more than watching everyday objects explode in super slow motion.
这两个人从来没有想过去解释他们的动机,或者去在意哪些人会看他们的视频。事实上,他们只是享受与在慢镜头中看东西爆炸的样子。
But that is part of the beauty of science - sometimes there doesn't need to be a reason, other than watching life from a new perspective.
但这也正是科学的美妙之处:有些事情并不需要理由,只是为了从另一个角度去品味生活而已。
