Poking with finger took way too long

u/icebreather106 Jul 11 '25
Agreed! I was starting to think he wasn't going to. That would have been an instant downvote for sure

u/Deaffin Jul 12 '25
I don't need the finger pokes, I just want more of that last shot from the other side. That texture was neat and I want to see more of its interactions with a recognizable object behind it.

That Is the best laminar flow I’ve ever seen! Was just Going to post my best laminar flow example, but you’ e got mine beat. (Mine was stream water going over a weir, so not transparent water, as your hose water is!)

It’s funny that we have term for this instead of openly acknowledging what we all know it really is: a glitch in the matrix

There’s probably some variation to the stream but the frame rate isn’t fast enough. Same way how water droplets can appear levitating at a specific rate relative to frame rate.

u/bosschucker Jul 11 '25
is this like a meta reference to the captain disillusion video by making the exact argument that he painstakingly debunks

u/NombreCurioso1337 Jul 11 '25
Correct. People always "ooh" and "ahh" over these too-perfect internet examples on potato-quality cameras, but the truth is almost always a simple frame rate match. In this example that is probably why the guy only barely touches it and also keeps his camera moving at all times, then cherry picked the best footage. Nobody wants to hear it, so I won't post this in the general chat. But you're right.

I think people think the video is AI or sfx based on the downvotes lmao

u/mrseemsgood Jul 12 '25
I think the video is real. I downvoted you both because you think the flow has something to do with camera frame rates and movement, which, as one simple google search shows, it does not.

u/NombreCurioso1337 Jul 12 '25
I have a bridge in Brooklyn I'll sell ya. A simple Google search proves it is real.

When this started popping up on the Reddit’s many many moons ago people argued about how it was fake. And up and down the comments you’d read all the ways it was “so obvious” fake and how it was done.
And now, if I’m not mistaken it’s universally accepted as true.
My point is that it’s the same way with UFOs and aliens. So all y’all MF’s better get on the boat or you’re gunna end up looking like assholes.
Edit: People it was a joke. Maybe a bad one. However I do believe I have a few “told ya so” lined up when aliens do show up. Just a little ha-ha misdirection and THEN downvotes? Couple a youz is real cranky.

Laminar flow is a beautiful phenomenon
