Hey, it's me Destin. So here's the deal. If you watch this video, it has the potential to change every day of your life for the rest of your life. However, you also have the potential to think about me, and whoever sent you this video, every day, when you're alone and half naked. So I'm gonna give you three seconds to think about this.
嘿,是我Destin。所以是這樣子的。如果你觀賞這段影片,它有潛力能夠改變你剩餘生命中的每一個日子。然而,當你每天自己單獨一個人又半裸的時候,也有可能會想到我或是寄送這影片給你的人。所以我要給你三秒鐘考慮一下是否要觀賞。
This is one of those things that affect billions of people all over the world, but nobody talks about it, at least not in an intelligent respectful way.
這是影響全世界數十億人的事情,但沒有人談論它,至少不是用一種理性的、恭敬的方式去討論。
In 1895 there was a paper published by the London Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge by a guy named A. M. Worthington. It had to do with splashes, so after reading that, and looking at some work by a guy named Weber, I've got to thinking: is there a way we can eliminate what's known as a Worthington jet? Or as I like to call it...poop splash.
1895年有一份由倫敦「推廣基督教義社群」的A.M. Worthingtonn所發行的報紙。它和「噗通」有關係,所以在讀過那報紙和看過一份叫做Weber的人的作品之後,我必須思考:有什麼方法可以消除已知的「沃辛頓中央噴射柱」?或像是我喜歡的稱呼...便便水花。
Okay, if you imagine in your head right now if you were to drop a rock in water, what happens is a cavity opens up and it's air, and all that air has nowhere to go, so it slaps back together, because there's a discontinuity in pressure. Now if you break it down, surface tension is force per unit length.
好的,如果你現在在自己腦袋中想像,若你要把一塊石頭丟到水中,會發生的是一個洞口開啟,它是空氣,而那些空氣都沒地方可去,因為有個壓力的斷點,所以它往回拍打在一起。如果你把它拆開來分析,表面張力是每單位長度上所受的力。
Nice goggles. Thumbs up for science. Yeah. Sample A. What do you think? I don't know about you, but I have never made anything like that with my body. Well I did make more samples, but it just depends on how much tolerance you have. What does tolerance mean? Tolerance for accuracy if you will. I think we need to scrub accuracy and go for more realism.
很棒的護目鏡。給科學一個讚。對啊。A樣本。你覺得如何?我不知道妳會不會,但我的身體從來沒有製造過像那樣的東西。嗯,我的確做了更多的樣本,但就看你的忍耐力有多強囉。忍耐力是啥意思?如果你這樣想的話就是對準確度的忍耐力囉。我想我們別管準確度了,追求實際吧。
Hey, Dest, I got the uh... What's up? We have number two here? Are those beads? Technically. Three...two...one... Drop the deuce!
嘿,Dest,我有啊...怎麼了?我們有這裡有大號嗎?那些是珠子嗎?技術上來說是。三...二...一...開始拉吧!
Control Test: Obliquity zero degree
對照組:傾斜零度
Pinch the loaf in three...two...one...
把便便夾斷倒數三...二...一...
Angled Entry: asymmetric splash exceeds drop height
斜角落入水面:不對稱的水花超過施放點高度
Cross section, density, and length determine void shape
截面、密度和長度決定裂縫形狀
Long straight voids cause higher jets
長而直線的裂縫造成較高的水花噴射
What can we do to eliminate this? The answer is, vary the surface tension. All you have to do is grab a piece of toilet paper that's already in the bathroom with you and lay it on the surface. I like to use four pieces so that it touches each side. That way it stays in one position. It totally had caught all the bubbles... See that?
我們可以做什麼來消除這個水花呢?答案是,改變表面張力。你只要在浴室拿一張衛生紙平放在水面上。我喜歡用四張以使它碰觸到每一邊。那樣子它會維持在一個位置。它完全抓住了所有的氣泡...看到了嗎?
There you go. That fun? Are you potty training big people? Yes.
這就對了。好玩嗎?你在教大人「嗯嗯」嗎?對啊。
Alright. In summary, I hope you don't think we were being rude or crude or anything like that, we're just not that kind of people, we don't uh... Very nice. This affected billions of people and nobody talks about it. Why don't they talk about it? I don't know, but you're gonna go home and try it and you're gonna... You're welcome. Don't even act like you're not gonna try it.
好的。總之,希望你不會覺得我們粗野或沒教養之類的,我們真的不是那樣的人,我們不會啊...很好。這影響了數十億的人們而沒有人談論它。為何沒人討論它呢?我不知道,但你要回家試試看而且你會...不客氣。別甚至裝得好像你連試都不會試。
What we need you to do is subscribe if you learned, actually, something. And probably better, send it to your friends to weird them out. Because I think this is pretty weird. Me too. It's pretty weird but it was pretty awesome.
我們需要你做的是如果你實際上學到了一點東西的話,請訂閱。然後也許更好的話,傳給你朋友去嚇嚇他們。因為我覺得這還真的很怪異。我也是。它很怪但它也很棒。
If you would like to click on the cat to subscribe... Can you make that happen? I can make that happen. Awesome. Do that! Click on the cat! Alright! Cat's better. Alright. Send this to your friends. Weird them out, so they'll think about you every time they're uh...
如果你可以點選貓咪來訂閱...你可以弄成那樣嗎?可以。太棒了。做成那樣!點選貓咪!好的!貓咪比較好。好吧。把這傳送給你朋友。嚇嚇他們,這樣他們每次嗯嗯...的時候,都會想到你。
He's Destin, you're getting Smarter Every Day. That's it.
他是Destin,你正在收看Smarter Every Day。就這樣啦。
