The quality of this camera—which didn't break—is incredible.

---

A camera falls from an airplane, and once it hits the ground, a pig randomly appears.

The part where the spinning syncs up with the shutter blows my mind every time I see this. Gives a new meaning to "rolling shutter".

[u/FrozenOcean420 → u/harglblarg]

I wonder what the rpm was at the end there.

[u/wesley_the_boy → u/FrozenOcean420]

Somebody way smarter than me could probably calculate it based on the framerate of the video. We need r/theydidthemath to weigh in on this!

[u/T_Martensen → u/wesley_the_boy]

Isnt the RPM just the frame rate of the video, i.e. probably 30 or 60 /min?

[u/Nashvegas → u/T_Martensen]

Per second, haha. You're talking about a book 🤣

[u/sgtbackpain03 → u/T_Martensen]

So if the camera is recording at 30 frames per second, and there are one (or more) full rotations between each frame, that is 30 rotations per second, or 1800 RPM.

[u/sgtbackpain03 → u/harglblarg]

That's actually caused by the frame rate, not rolling shutter. Rolling shutter causes a single frame to show distortion from movement that occurs during the time the frame is captured.

In this case, the camera was spinning at some multiple (likely 1x) of the frame rate, which meant every time a frame was taken, a full rotation would occur before the next frame, causing the frames to mostly line up with each other.

Surviving the fall was easy. Passing through the pig was impressive!

[u/Equivalent-Dig7259]

I thought the falling bit was to be unexpected. Gosh, the joy i had with the final :)

[u/jaw-shoe-uhhh]

Passes the pig vibe check.

[u/b1rdstrike]

I did not expect that

[u/Mindofthequill]

It says something about me that I watched the first 3 seconds and was like is this the one that ends up in the pig pen? Yes, yes it was. Thanks for storing that useless information brain.

[u/happ-e-rider]

The hamera took a porktrait.

[u/Extra_Sir_444]

Survived the fall, and then was eaten by the hog.

Old film projectors starting up be like

It's been a while since I've been to JukinVideo's channel, man the memories...

[u/kiwipo17]

Wasn’t that an iPhone? Or was it a GoPro?

[u/proustiancat → u/kiwipo17]

The original YouTube video description mentions that it was a camera (found 8 months later by the farmer), so GoPro.

[u/SlavCat09 → u/proustiancat]

8 months? How long did that pig take to process it?

[u/SlavCat09 → u/kiwipo17]

Clearly a Nokia brick

Earth didn’t shatter, so unlikely

Somewhere there's software that can unravel that spin...

There is a maximum velocity an object can reach based on its weight.
