I've decided to not try to "win the algorithm", and only make videos about what I'm genuinely interested in. Thank you very much for watching this video about Pecans. If you'd like to support a guy in Alabama making videos about (among other things) Pecans, please consider supporting here: www.patreon.com/smartereveryday. I send literally every Patreon supporter a really cool baseball with a Smarter Every Day logo on it.
You still got some of those. I remember when you got em. It was like a pallet box full of em huh. Oh greetings from S otland btw.
What are you talking about, your videos get millions of views and mostly you are making videos of other people doing stuff. I would love to be you, destin.
@E-IRONMAN MARSDEN There's no such thing as the reverse of centrifugal force, getting the balls to roll inward using centrifugal force would be impossible with our laws of physics here on Earth
Something on my mind I figured you’d be great to experiment with. The opposite of centrifugal force or the reverse. A round table with tubes on it each with a ball inside. When the table spins one way, the balls fly out, but if you spin in the opposite direction the balls still fly out. How do you make the balls roll inward?
If you make videos you’re interested in the energy and excitement will carry to your watchers.
Clearly it would be more effective if the vibrator were higher up. Shaking from close to the base wastes energy.
It’s too bad the KGup compression messes up the video so much
Wrong. My favourite flavour of ice cream is pecan with caramel
Damm now I want some trees
I would guess, that it does not make a huge difference in which direction the tree is shaken, because the thin twigs act like a rope. Take a rope, 2 or 3 meters long, and make kind of a two dimensional sine wave at one end, while the rope is hanging straight down. Watch the rope while doing that. Do it left and right, and then shift your movement 90 degrees, compare both cases. It will also work while the rope is laying on the floor, it is just more difficult to shift the movement by 90 degrees while having gravity. I guess it is the same for the tree, just upside-down compared to the hanging rope.
How to destroy KGup compression, shake a tree in high speed
baseball cannon vs prince rubert drop
He really looks after his equipment NOT, needs a good clean and polish
I grew up with a massive Pecan tree in my backyard as a kid. One of our chores/punishment was keeping all the sticks and pecans picked up. It was a never ending task! How I miss those Pecans! My grandfather has a couple trees, and I covet the 5 lbs I get for Christmas every year! Best gift ever!
This was very interesting to watch as I live in and amongst 4600 acres of pecan trees her in Green Valley Arizona. Most people don't realize how much work goes into growing pecans. It's a year around continuous process. If I could just see what's happening in the orchards I could tell you what time of year it is. Right now they are still harvesting some but mostly doing pruning. Thanks for the video! I subscribed.
regarding the shaking from two sides my first thought was not the direction but the frequency. There must certainly be a frequency at which each tree starts to resonate to a certain degree, if one was to find out which frequency that is or even had a tool that would automatically ramp through different frequencies to test each tree you could probably get more nuts off the tree in a shorter time frame.
Yes, I learn a bunch from your channel... except! Where do you get your background music? asking for a future Content Creator.
Good man right there
I love seein him smile as you figure out his machines
Way better then hunting thru the leaves. Squirrel gumbo ??
Is that Pecan Tim Cook?
I don’t need a tractor I just need a Nokia
Man, your videos never disappoint. I will go a year without watching and then binge when I find one that "actually" interests me, then enjoy all of them. Such a wholesome and straightforward channel. Keep it up, my Alabama brethren.!
Now the REAL question: Is it PEE-can or PI-can
Amazing!
Buttered pecan ice cream IS in fact the best flavor!
This was a topic that I didn't know I would find so interesting! Thanks, Destin!
You should do a video on the Charleston Tea Plantation harvester!
Me: What you got there buddy? Shaker: These nuts!
I'm happy Tim Cook found his passion.
There is a pecan tree that produces nuts on my street near downtown Los Angeles… next to a palm tree.
I know I'm one in a billon but I wish smarter everyday could visit Gabe Brown farm and talk about regenerative agriculture that needs to be told to everyone in the world!
0:03 that's cntrl + z in real life
Frank mail Pecans? I love his passion
6:30 - 7:45 is so pretty
Yeah ur right
woooooooooooooooooow soooooooo coooooooool 0o0
9:00 reminds me of shaking snow from trees. Thanks for the video Destin!
And here in Pakistan we beat the pecans' big brother walnut tree with sticks to harvest them
wooow
And people say money doesn’t grow on trees...
Destin, how do you find the most holsome and interesting people in every industry?
Love 💗 love love all your episodes. Today’s was probably my favorite. And that says a lot.
What did the pawnee say to the kiowa? Why don't you pecan someone your own size.
I just wana vibe like those Pecans do in their lil shells
“There’s no squirrels here.” 🤣
The best video you ever created...!!!! Love the story about your father and the punishment from hot rodding the old Ford
Anyone else thinks he looked like Tim Cook?
Pecans not payCans. English stress is on the first consonant of the first Syllable not the second one. It draws the word out unnecessarily. A bit like how they made Steven Call bert change to Stephen coal bear once he got stateside. I dont know if its coz they thought it sounded gayer ? You know those teewee execs right 😉
So many varieties of pecans - What natural creativity!
I didn't know Tim Cook was running a pecan farm. Smarter every day
All the good things in that sentence •hot rodding dad’s car •a kid having the skills to hot rod a car(granted a simple carburated engine would be easier to work) •making your son work in the garden doing useful things, getting fit and learning a lesson for a whole summer. •pecans
YT compression algorithm is not made for shaking trees.
This is such a great video, simple and seriously enjoyable
I'm just so in love with this video, you passion and then is just awesome, im just felt a miss for a slowmo on the nut craker my anxiety claims for that hahahaha
im so jealous of your kids. you are an amazing father.
I'm sure it's been said a hundred times. But I can't help but think of the community of squirrels that live around this place. It's probably guarded like a Fort Knox of the squirrel world.
Maybe I'm a big softy but its so beautiful watcing in slow motion as the tree yields such an impressive cloud of peacans and gracefully raises its branches, in response to the mechanical aggrevation.
Im glad you pronounce pecan correctly pah-kahn not pee-can.. not eating a toilet 🤣
Wow
Why didn't you take the slow Mo of the pecan cracking
There are no squirrels here Mark Rober: Teach me!
The SONG in this video is SO FREAKING WEIRD!!! Idk if its haunting or... Idek but SOMETHING about it trips my brain out!!
you really are able to make everything interesting and fascinating! Your energy is very contagious, you are the best
This was such a neat video! Much love to Frank for showing so much about his orchard! I think I need to go buy some pecans :)
I'm watching these gentleman and I'm eating pecans weird
Destin, I love these videos, but the camera shake makes it uncomfortable to watch sometimes, especially at the high framerate. We would enjoy your videos even more if you could find a way to stabilize the video while recording or editing. Keep up the great work!
Nutting a nut tree:
You had me at vibrator
I love these kinds of videos! Thanks Destin! Keep it up!
Please look into the tying mechanism on a John Deere 348 wire square baler it is really neat
Interesting. We have two tree shaker manufacturers right here in Northern Ca. OMC and Coe Equipment. Walnuts and Almonds are everything around these parts. Almonds are pronounced like salmon. My Dad grew up in Chico, Ca. He says Ammonds.
Wow! In about the 1980s there was an Australian TV program on in South Africa, called "Beyond 2000". I did not miss an episode! This was about technology being developed at the time that was thought to be mainstream in the years 2000 and onward. This idea of shaking a tree to harvest it was then being developed. I seem to remember, at the time, they mentioned about treating the trees with a hormone which would ensure the nuts would open and ready for shaking. They also used tarpaulins under the trees to catch the harvest, elevating the need for the machine that pics them up. Very interesting to see the whole process!
My family farms cherries. I'd love to see how you react to the different harvesting equipment we use.
I’m surprised you didn’t get a slow motion video of the nut cracker in action
The smile on that mans face ... what a nice man.
thanks destin!
All the science that goes into harvesting pecans! Wow!
Its called pecaaan not pecohn
*...”BIG nuts on top..”*
You also did a good job of breaking KGup's compression - Its clearly suffering from high entropy and takes a real dive in sharpness once there's leaves and nuts flying everywhere. The Slo Mo Guys did a really cool experiment using glitter for a similar effect, once
You guys look just alike wow 😳
That farmer looks like Bill Gates !
Holding distance leads to no handshake 5 min after : Eating pecans from his bare hands
Animations for steps 🔥🔥
0:03 entropy: u shall not pass!
I can’t stand the taste of pecans. Do enjoy the video though.
My wife will have to try butter pecan ice cream, but I can't stand pecan deserts. Just not good to me. I am a pumpkin pie kinda guy.
Tree: starts shaking Video quality: aight imma head out
"No, this is a mom and pops" If it were up to the government they gone close also this framer/store because of nothing, just what they have done now to almost half of all the other mom and pops stores/shops/farms. Because the government want everyone to be dependent of the government, they want pure control over everything, and THAT is the "Great" Reset as they call it now.
Frank seems like a really nice guy.
he looks like tim cook
I want some pecans so bad
Pride and joy in that farmers face says it all. Genuinely enjoyed this one Destin. Thumbs up from Wisconsin!
I love this, reminiscing about the days with pecan-picking in FL... and true.. buttered pecan is one of my favorites
It’s funny how much of that area looks like rural Ohio hahaha
This video is a nightmare for the ram on my pc
I live in Nor cal and this is how we harvest almonds and walnuts
I am alergic to peacons
"A dog, a woman, and a walnut tree... the more you beat them, the better they be!" plagiarized from somewhere. . . .
👍❤️ good pecans
Thank you both for pronouncing pecan properly.
Bro this is NUTS!!!!!!!!!
Hey Destin. I live in a Pecan orchard in the San Jaoquin Valley in CA. Our equipment is much different, it might just be much newer technology, than what they are using in this video. The shakers here are really interesting pieces of machinery compared to just a PTO hook up to a standard tractor. Also ours are harvested well after leaves have fallen. We just did ours two weeks ago. It might be a much better slow video analysis with no leaves. If your interested let me know. It was awesome to see how it's done else where though. Thanks.
In another life, he was the CEO of a phone company named Pecan.
