| Youtube sensations The Slow Mo Guys taser a brave volunteer for their latest viral hit |
YOUTUBE stars The Slow Mo Guys invite you to see how a Taser really works – by watching one being FIRED into an unlucky volunteer's back at 28,000 fps.
The Slow Mo Guys are one of the most popular channels on YouTube, racking up more than 645,701,780 views with their viral videos.
For their latest video, the English duo were flown to Scottsdale, in Arizona to visit the US headquarters of Taser International.
The latest video – which has already been viewed more than 507, 000 times – shows the effects the infamous electrical weapons have on the human body.
The footage was shot at a staggering 28,000 frames-per-second and gives a stomach-churning insight into how the Taser technology really works.
Barbed darts from the Taser can be seen stabbing into an unlucky – and topless – volunteer's back.
Some 50,000 volts are then passed through his body – and his muscles quickly spasm and contract in the slow motion video.
