Well this one was fun.  

Shane is an incredibly intelligent fellow.  I like that he challenges me to get better myself.  I think you'll really enjoy this video.  Be sure to watch his video to see how he built this thing. It's crazy cool! Thank you so much for supporting! 

Regards,

Destin

Gave money to your patron and never received any of the benefits.. no ball no nothing.. boooooooooo 😡 scummy and you wanted so much too not just a dollar like $20 you suck!

Andreas Lekas

This is uncalled for. The point of Patreon is to help Destin make videos by supporting him. If you feel entitled, go talk to Destin privately and see if you can work something out. Otherwise, please don’t pollute this space with negativity when the vast majority of us just want to see good SmarterEveryDay content

Gabriel Jones

I know it’s a big task to mail out all those baseballs. Any update on mine :)

Robert Jones

I’m sure it is just a delay or processing delay - be patient - it’s not Amazon! Maybe you should consider removing the post.

Robert Jones

Now for a nice comment! I’ve seen some of the stuff made here videos and he is incredibly talented! I’ve not watched the video yet but looking forward to it!

Joe Church

Yea not Amazon SMH. 3 months.. did you get yours? And I did contact the content provider.. I just canceled my SUB and low and behold another $20 charge the very minute I canceled showed up in my inbox and can't access anything without re-subscribing.. I used to like this guy until this.. I thought he was better than just another youtuber trying to make a fast buck from other people's generosity.. and you all want me to relax 1000+ subs paying you $20 a month is a healthy paycheck .. probably quite a bit more than most of y'all make..

Travis Boop

Thanks Destin, no matter how obscure the topic is i love your videos! You have a gift in seeing the wonder around us.

Joe Church

Yea the point of the patreon is to support his work but you don't offer something and ask people for $20+ and Don't deliver.. most other creators ask for $1 or $5.. and they have thousands of patreons.. Destin has plenty of patreons do the math he is making plenty of money from here.. so don't offer something if you don't plan on delivering.. all I'm saying..

Andreas Lekas

Destin, this was a fun one. Your excitement to have someone else break your and Jeremy’s record is incredible. Also, you have way too many copies of Monopoly... keep up the good work!!

RAD Donato

Great video! Shane is a great collab. I coulda told you about the bucket handle failure though.... : )

Ryan Moody

And instead of contacting the creator directly and inquiring about it like a reasonable person, you canceled your support and post negative trash here. Real mature.

Herman

Oh man, I was already watching Shane. this crossover is so awesome!

Ann & Jess

Got my baseball and gave it to my grandson who is a huge baseball fan. If a mistake was made, Destin will fix it for sure.

jan-pieter Wouters

You can give wat you want to give no need to give 20$, by the way i already recieved my baseball so he does send them out

Michael Bonetti

I just got mine this week. Don’t be an asshat

Charlie

Hey Joe. Although I don't agree with the language used, I can understand the sentiment. Three months is a long time to not hear anything after you've given someone $20. I think in the future this process needs to be better organized. There should be regular status updates posted on Patreon about progress and there should definitely be some sort of reasonable deadline set at the beginning (with updates if that deadline can't be met). Hopefully you'll get your baseball and hopefully those who've been waiting will get some status update. But again, language aside, being upset about this is reasonable. Don't let other people tell you otherwise.

Jim Battle

I think the quickest fix is to simply get a pro or college baseball player to swing the bat -- he'll add a lot of kinetic energy and will hit it at the right spot for maximum distance.

smartereveryday

Hey Joe! As mentioned in earlier messages I sent out, here is where the status is updated: https://www.smartereveryday.com/baseball Did you sign up after September 9th? Also, I will work to figure out how to refund your support. I hope you enjoy the baseball when you get it. Have a great day.

Keith Johnson

So now, find some crazy MLB player who would be willing to be the batter and get the perfect swing and launch angle. This was fun!

Ola Waagen

Calm down, he said it will take some time and it's not that easy sending hundreds of balls to different people all over the world.

Ola Waagen

Destin is definitively not a scammer and also many post offices is struggling from all the corona issues.

George Chin

Very awesome. Maybe add some physics calculations to show what the estimated distances would be based on masses and velocities

Victor

I pay like $1 per video (the Legacy tier), and I got my baseball a couple of days ago. In Russia, for God's sake. Sits right next to Derek's (Veritasium) water cover one. So yeah, Destin's as legit as they come.

peter mackay

Received my baseball yesterday in Aberdeen, Scotland😁 did not expect it to arrive so soon and didn’t think I was gonna be lucky enough to get a signed one. Can’t put in words how happy that made me. Thank you

FELIX

It would have helped if you used a golf swing launch monitor to track it. You probably could have been able to project the distance. I love these videos and the science behind everything. Thanks for sharing, my friend. Felix

Blaise

Perfect video, and I got my signed (!) baseball on friday. I live in Germany. The funniest part was “You are smarter than me” 🤣🤣🤣. I follow Shane as well now. I found talented and funny people thru your channel, who I follow since: The Slow Mo Guys Linus Mark Rober Christine Figgener So keep going with these collaborations as well! 👍🏻

Peter Holley

Stick a strip of reflective material around the ball. Then you can go out at night with a bright light source and find it by the reflection.

Nick Hobson

Stop using my youtube algorithm to do crossovers, next thing you know you will be talking to Colin Furze

VitAnyaNaked

I watched the video with great pleasure! And I did not think that such a thing could be invented. Well done!

Richard T.Whybrow

Brilliant work guys. Thanks for the heads up to subscribe to his excellent channel.

Timothy Pitcock

Thats not true. Give me your address and ill send you mine. No joke. We all make mistakes and to show you that its not this channel or Destins. I will overnight it. timp7142001@gmail.com here my e-mail tell me where.

Steven Bircher

Y’all need to come out to some western dry lake beds to do this. Dead Cow Lake north of Reno would be perfect.

Thirsten

Time to start painting Baseballs neon colours so you guys can find them. lol

Workbench

While it might be problematic due to danger, it'd be really neat to start up a prize/scholarship foundation for beating the distance. Also, I saw his original videos a while back, and I'm glad to see you guys collaborate!

Nelson Nissley

My 23 yr old son, saw me watching this. He watched Shane's original video with the wooden bat.

Cerity

Well technically the creator should have a method to get that info. There was previously a method to pre charge, or post charge. Recently the add to be able to charge in local currency is nice 😁 Negativity is due to electrons, get some oxidizers

Jay Swanson

I loved how the bucket just went flying

James Eschrich

Damn your boys are getting big. It’s like yesterday they were building LEGOs. Oh wait, there’s the Saturn V.

Evan Viljoen

I'm assuming you're trying to keep the baseballs regulation, but since you've already personalized them, why not add a UV fluorescent coating, strap a UV torch to the drone, fly it at night in a grid, and Bob's your uncle. You'll probably end up finding a few scorpions as well for fun.

Nial Pearce

Absolutely bonkers! Love it! Not sure how you guys are going to top this for sheer insanity (a couple of .50 cal rounds???) , but you need to figure out how to find the darn balls. Keep up the amazing work.

Florian Linscheid

Damn I'm so happy you recommended me StuffMadeHere, Destin! That guy is an absolute genius. I binge watched every video of him and I'm absolutely amazed.

Daniel

After a long crummy day at work I was delighted to find your Trash Pandas baseball in my mailbox, and signed too! I thought I was too late to the party to get one signed. Thank you so much, Destin! You're my favorite person on the internet, and you brighten up my day. It's a pleasure to support your channel.

Marcin Stępień

Cheers from Poland! Just got my baseball, it's singed and super cool! It's also my first baseball and it's harder than I imagined it to be (learning something even from this ;) Thank You for the great content, keep it coming!

Russell Harris

Hi Destin and all, Love your channel. Keep it up👍

Andrew

Hi from New Zealand. Loving your content especially with regards to Space. Loved the baseball episode and I'm hoping to present a friend and massive promoter of NZ baseball with your TrashPanda ball. Also I would love to buy a BB skin that you shot, they look amazing. Rock on D.
