Super-slow-motion video of a dude getting hit in the face is mesmerizing

Everything is better in slow motion—and that includes watching someone getting clobbered in the face. 

The Slow Mo Guys’ latest YouTube feat shows what happens when a water-soaked soccer ball clocks you upside the head. 

The guys have done this before, but everything is 1,000 times slower, and those extra frames make all the difference in the world. It’s truly remarkable to see Daniel Gruchy’s face wrinkle as he takes one for the team.
