Every yard in America needs one.
People have waaayy too much time on their hands these days.

and then he discovered girls.

I would love to see a list of all the stuff used to make that video, and how long it took to perfect it all. I would guess over 50 hours. Just digging that ditch alone must have taken forever.

It was filmed to make it appear it all happened in one continuous piece of action ... just as last year's hit movie "1917" was filmed. However, just as "1917" was NOT filmed in one continuous take, I am sure this was likewise not filmed in one continuous take. I think it is the result of some very creative and precise film editing.

I don't know, the joy of building a Rube Goldberg machine is the satisfaction when everything finally lines up and goes right. Looks good to me, I'm impressed.

No way this is real.

I love Rube Goldberg videos. Except every time I watch one, I expect to hear "This Too Shall Pass" by the OK Go.

I had to see how he shot this.
He says he did it with 3D camera.
And claims it took 2 months to build and get it to work.
So, it's plausible this was one straight take...but who knows?
Go to Youtube to get the details.

 

[Oakland]

Even if that was not one continuous shot - I'd guess that took closer to 500 - 1,000 hours and involved many persons.

So worst case scenario, this kid has video production skills on par with DreamWorks Pictures and their accompanying $100 million budget. I'm impressed, regardless.

No, it was definitely shot in one take. Very easy to do with a 360 GoPro which is what he had. There are definitely no edits in the complete shot.

 

[miamicuse]

I am super impressed but I think the Pool Party Machine is even better in terms of creativity and fun.

50 hours a week for 6 week maybe

 

[Zelda Zonk]

I'm almost as impressed by the camerawork as by the 'device' itself.

 

[Shrmdougluvr]

If it doesnt result in a delicious and nutritious foundation for me to pour my Mr. T cereal, then i'm not interest.

If there’s an edit in there I’d love to know where!

Turns out...he is multi-talented.

New Jersey teen is king of trick shots

MIDDLETOWN, N.J. — Cree Ossner, a 16-year-old from Middletown, New Jersey, has a vision for great, Rube Goldberg-esque trick shots. He does it by not just looking at the things in his garage as jun…

Awwwww!

Still pretty darn good. And it captured my imagination so completely that for 90 seconds (?) I didn’t think of anything upsetting!

Gives me anxiety about how much of a waste of time it was to set it up.

And clean up.

I judge these devices (among other events) at the regional Science Olympiad here in SE NC

It's a lot of fun for both the kids and judges.
