00:00:04,870 --> 00:00:02,629
so i saw this video on twitter today uh

2
00:00:06,950 --> 00:00:04,880
it's been held up as an example of a

3
00:00:08,310 --> 00:00:06,960
video that we're difficult to fake with

4
00:00:10,150 --> 00:00:08,320
the technology of the day because it's

5
00:00:13,190 --> 00:00:10,160
on vcr and the object seems to

6
00:00:14,789 --> 00:00:13,200
almost inten instantaneously vanish from

7
00:00:16,470 --> 00:00:14,799
the scene it just shoots off

8
00:00:19,750 --> 00:00:16,480
so i tried duplicating it myself this is

9
00:00:22,870 --> 00:00:22,070
and the way i did that is fairly simple

10
00:00:25,029 --> 00:00:22,880
i just

11
00:00:26,390 --> 00:00:25,039
took this this old plastic washer i hung

12
00:00:28,230 --> 00:00:26,400
it from this string here

13
00:00:30,390 --> 00:00:28,240
and then i attached another string to it

14
00:00:32,229 --> 00:00:30,400
to the side which was attached to a long

15
00:00:34,229 --> 00:00:32,239
piece of wood

16
00:00:35,590 --> 00:00:34,239
and then i just filmed it from inside

17
00:00:37,510 --> 00:00:35,600
the garage

18
00:00:40,150 --> 00:00:37,520
and from outside i picked up the piece

19
00:00:41,110 --> 00:00:40,160
of wood i swung it to one side as fast

20
00:00:43,990 --> 00:00:41,120
as i could

21
00:00:45,430 --> 00:00:44,000
and the object vanished instantly it's

22
00:00:47,270 --> 00:00:45,440
actually a little bit too fast because

23
00:00:48,709 --> 00:00:47,280
it vanishes like in one frame whereas

24
00:00:49,990 --> 00:00:48,719
the original takes about three or four

25
00:00:50,549 --> 00:00:50,000
frames but all i would have to do

26
00:00:53,189 --> 00:00:50,559
obviously

27
00:00:54,630 --> 00:00:53,199
is just swing the stick a little slower

28
00:00:56,709 --> 00:00:54,640
so there you go it's not actually that

29
00:00:58,549 --> 00:00:56,719
hard to duplicate that effect even if
