This was the last indoor Chronos Ring video that we filmed so next one is going to be from 50 meter outdoor ring! So bigger stuff coming. We have also again new mobile game coming :D There is some gameplay as an extra content of this video and link to beta on description. It's again made by our friend Johannes who made also the previous games. So if you are interested on that please test it out and send all possible feedback to email address in description so we can make it even better before the actual launch.

Using "the biggest switch we could find" and Lauri's Safety Stick 5,000,000 were good indicators of the electrical power involved. :)

Freeze it into a block of [transparent] ice- it'll show the cracks propagating through the block when you switch it on.

"Safety stick 5,000,000." Yep, he's on board.

They're like little universes being born.

Hi there another great video unfortunately the spinning distracted me from seeing what was going on

This is perfect, my son is learning this in his science class. Perfect video to show him, thank you!!!

Been watching you guys for a while now. You guys are so cool

This is truly amazing, to say the least. Truly magnificent, the Chronos Ring videos are something I'll be looking forward to in the future. 100, 000 fps is truly mindblowing

i love seeing you guys grow, and seeing the increasing production value. you guys are great.

cant watch it with all the spinning

Love this excellent quality thanks guys watching from england :)

These are super interesting videos! Excellent job again!

Good! More Chronos ring videos! Liked your livestream yesterday rowing on the lake. Had to watch it on replay because summer is here now and so much work to do outside!

Awesome work guys! I do have a couple notes for improvement though: 1. I Hope you guys put some big diodes in place to protect the capacitors from damage. The inductive kickback from the sudden release of energy needs an alternative path to go back through other than backwards through the capacitors. 2. Also you should create your own guillotine type switch that will be durable and easy to unweld. Switches are simple, all you have to do is slam two pieces of copper together quickly! A spring-loaded plunger, held back by a pin as one connection, and the surface it strikes is the other connection. Looking forward to the next video!

Excellent video guys and girls! These kind of experiments are fascinating indeed. Keep up the outstanding videos!

Honestly this is quite amazing! For real that last bubble and implosion was so cool... The spinning I think is cool I enjoy the perspective

So cool :-) Little fun fact of the day, using ultrasound to create such cavitation bubbles can make them reach ridiculous temperatures (around 5000K) and ridiculous pressures (around 1000 atm).

That last one looked pretty good actually. You could definitely see the bubble get bigger again at the end. I think for a better result you would have to use higher voltage caps, maybe 5kV or so, some more energy, and then use the water itself instead of copper wire to complete the circuit. That way there should be less copper getting vaporized. And also ideally use a better trigger switch. Ideally a high voltage thyristor, but at least something with very large contacts.

What about exploding some capacitors/resistors or other electrical equipment in the chronos ring? Video idea maybe?

I worked as an industrial mechanic in the water treatment industry . I've heard cavitation and seen the resulting pump impeller damage , interesting to see it take place .

I really like this intro, well done 👍🏻

I really wish David would make some videos again. I loved watching his videos, very educational. The DLP chip and the e-charger are two favorites of mine, along with the flying tube thingamabobber.

Lauri's squat game is strong! Gopnik seal of approval!

Need an air spark gap switch for dumping the power from the capacitors both quicker and more efficiently.

Kind of cool! Thanks!

Nice experiment!

Fantastic. Best collaboration ever

I think thunderf00t would be interested in this experiment

8:15 Capacitators. xD

these videos are awesome but if i watch this in VR, it makes me motion sick becuase of all the fast spinning. My head is spinning now, i have to finish watching on desktop later.

Fascinating and very clever

Beautiful!

Need thinner wire (less vapor to cloud up things) but more voltage. Like 10-20kV and 5kJ and maybe 50,000-100,000 amps (enough to shrink a quarter) to heat it to maybe 100,000 degrees. Cheap 300v electrolytics have way too much ESR/ESL to be useful for heating/exploding wires fast enough unless you parallel a MJ worth, and are then very difficult to control (a few V is the difference from exploding wire and exploding the table or entire room).

Awesome experiment. I’m really surprised the glass containers didn’t shatter. 🤔

now you know what the birth of a universe looks like

That was really interesting!

Awesome Stuff

Fascinating. It looks like outer space

It looks like a mini sun made in the labs amazing!

Hey guys. Love your channel. I was wandering. How about you break a Prince Rupert's drop on oil. Since it's thicker than water. What would happend? Anyway, I love HPC an BPC. Both are great.

those tesla500 they really need to play more with their rig on youtube

You might look into switching the current on/off with a large 'brick' IGBT from Semikron or similar. This would separate the humans from the high voltage switching. You could trigger the IGBT with a 9V battery, or be a bit more sophisticated and do it with a pulse generator and control how long the power stays on. I have a background in pulsed power (which is what you are doing). It's considerably more dangerous than if you just got shocked with a wall plug due to the current available coming out of the cap bank (hundreds or thousands of amps). Please look at ways of doing this more safely.

Wow this intro is damn professional

Got another idea to get the wire to explode where you want. Solder the small wire to the supply wires then half cut the small wire with a set of side-cutters. The solder should eliminate the arcing and the half cut should make a hot spot.

great video, i think the beauty of the chronos ring for something like this is being able to have the best possible viewing angles, not constantly changing the viewing angle like it's a scene from the matrix every time. does it only shoot like that or does it do high speed per camera?

The ring gives two advantages - obviously 360 view, and max FPS per cam * number of cams (theoretically). How about rotate the subject to match the camera capture sequence to give a nice traditional shot with super high FSP? 360 is nice for some subjects, but is mostly sickening/dizzying.

burned through my high-speed allotment of data to watch this, and HOLY SHIT! Too cool!!! Imagine with BIGGER capacitors!

Really Cool to see the effect. I wonder if different metals of wire will create different explosion and ignition images.

If you want to "create" cavitation bubbles without dangerous electrical equipment, get a smasher mantis shrimp

That's definitely a bubble-shaped space within the water, but I don't think it qualifies as a cavitation bubble. Explosion bubble, perhaps. Cavitation happens when an object, like a ship's propeller, moves through the water at such high speed that the water separates from the surface of the object, leaving an empty space (well, probably filled with water vapor). The problem with cavitation on ship propellers is two-fold. 1. You lose propulsive force from the propeller since the water isn't flowing smoothly across the surfaces, and 2. the collapsing of the cavitation bubbles emit a sound. That sound isn't too much of a problem for normal ships, but it's a dead giveaway for military ships when enemy ships can detect the tell-tale sounds. Oh, and 3. cavitation causes excessive wear on the propeller.

I think that the intro to this video is like the best frickin intro in the history of the universe..👻

Kiitos! Safety Stick 5 million in online store yet ? Complete line of safety gear for every situation: Safety T-shirt (with Nellie), Plastic sunglasses, Safety Stick, and tennis shoes.

Another great video 😼mr meowski approves 👌

On the last test, when the bubble collapsed, the bubbles that formed on the sides of the jar formed, disappeared for a minute moment then formed again. No mention of that, so I’ll assume the team was concentrating on the main bubble.

Was waoting for this also do collapsing bubble with sound

Everyone is complaining about the framerate, but realize that: 1. If you're doing actual science with it, it would be helpful in some cases to see it from multiple angles. 2. 100,000 fps is a lot. This setup gets around shutter speed limits by activating the camera in series around and around the ring. This produces a spinning effect but offers high resolution, high framerate video for a (relatively) small amount of money. Stop asking for a redo with a more traditional high-speed camera. Unless you have money or connections, those are hard to come by. Be thankful they were given this opportunity instead of being angry it doesn't meet your quality standards.

This guy knows about some unintended HDR 😀😀😀😁😯😉😈😈

Very interesting

Few more ideas how to see the cavitation. Melted copper in the water (dangerous it explodes), trick with hitting beer bottle from the top, and what you already done but with higher voltage it can break rocks apart, and underwater nuclear blast ;)

The into alone is worth a "like" on this video!

Great show, I'm not keen on the Chronos ring view tho, a fixed camera make me sense in my humble opinion 😆

Today we have friends from the channel:"So you think you can out geek us?"

Scale it way up!!! ⚡⚡⚡

Please set up another jar beside the one being harmonized to test for sympathetic resonance. If it works move the second harmonized further and further away to measure its range

To much spinning in the video. It’s hard to see pictures. Other than that good job 👍.

I want to be interested in the cavitation but I'm distracted by the Van Halen leggings.

Aah i see! So thats how they filmed the Matrix bullet dodge scene!

hey guys i think you should try doing what you did in the Most Dangerous SOAP BUBBLES Ever!! video with these cameras i think the soap bubbles in the small house would look interesting, also i hope you guys have a gr8 day

interesting 👍😀👍

Can you rotate slower? Then it will be much better to see. Awsome video’s ❤️. The temperature rise is enormous in cavitation

Did you de-gas the water (e.g. with a vacuum pump) before this experiment? It's my understanding that the cavitation is more powerful if there's no air bubbles in the water.

I sincerely and truly HATE the spinning!

I love the idea of seeing things in every angle, but in these situations it would be alot better off if it was shot by a single camera at a much closer distance. Still really cool though

Wonders when you use transducer in water an bubble if there is a way too trap something inside of it since it does heat too the point of the sun an repeats would be possible too heat said inside of it.

If you want to try filming single angle super slow motion, you could try filming a rotating mirror, the mirror pointed at the subject at each angle. I think this method was used to film atomic bomb tests.

A high power carbon switch may help with the switch welding it's self together.

Wicked

That collapse is insane! How can it be so much faster than the expansion?

Safety stick 5,000,000. Damn, got 'em

I love y’all!

Makes sense that the first setup had two distinct "explosions" as the connection points has significantly higher resistance than even the small wire inbetween. Basic Ohms law 😉 Ever had a voltage surge through an electrical system you'll notice it's the connections that get burnt, the poorer the connection the greater the burn.

Creating Universes.

i wonder how much the depth and distance to the wall of the container matters.

I need that T shirt

Here is a link to Lauri’s YT video about the Chronos high-speed cameras: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sKx_grxpstCnmJc.html

Should have tried with tungsten wire or something else with a really high boiling point.

Cavitation is such an interesting scientific phenomenon. While it has been studied for many decades in many types of engineering, seeing it under the Chronos Ring is very revealing.

That's interesting footage, could be used in a movie showing underwater explosions of submarines or something. That's how George Lucas made the space explosions in Star Wars by filming pyrotechnics explosions from underneath

I watched the outdoor one with the car and it was good. This one I can't watch very much it will give me motion sickness.

Make a wire with a stretched neck in the middle, bend it so U with the neck at the bottom and lower it into the bottle. so the only weak point in the water is the necked point at the bottom of the U.

ohh a new game. I was playing the original one on my phone then got a new phone and could not figure out how to get my info to the new phone. I could install the game and start all over which i didn't really want to do :( So lookin forward to the new one to start fresh again.

What if you did this in pressurized water or deep underwater would the collapse be more intense

You can make cavitation bubbles at home without the fancy set up shown here. Just fill a glass beer bottle with water and slap the top of it HARD (wear gloves, it can sting a bit). The cavitation bubbles will blow out the bottom of the bottle and make a nice mess of water and broken glass!

I liked this presentation, but its a shame it seems there wasn't as much money spent on the electrical components vs the cameras assuming they were all bought and not given? Anyway I read some of the comments here, and imo I would have used a slightly larger capacitor bank and a higher voltage overall, in the range of several, to 10s of KV, also a thyratron instead of that "isolator" to switch the energy, far better ways of doing it and not too expensive either. But there were some good shots nevertheless. Not a complaint, more of a suggestion on how it could be oh so much more amazing. exploding water with electricity can be used to do hydroforming of metals, and shattering rocks without explosives etc.

7:15 Wait...Looks like a Slav Squat. Is that is Finn Squat? Better trademark that...and quick!

Am I the only one wondering how much force it would take to crush the camera rig?

Awesome video. I love Your channel. I will try it but I will use a huge thyristor instead of the mechanical switch. The mechanical switch wastes huge amount of power for arcs between contacts. Thyristor is much faster and its voltage drop is only about 1.5 Volt. This will allow me to concentrate as much energy as possible into the 'exploding' spot.

But how bubble created the spark? is it because of the heat released during the spark steaming the water? or it is because the electrons on the spark traveled to the water bouncing the electrons of the water molecule?

I don't know the name of the KronTech operator, but his "laptop" is awesome! what are the specs?
