Man bursts out of 6-foot balloon in stunning slow motion

The Slo Mo guys never fail to impress with their high-quality performances improved with extreme slow motion.

The guys (real names: Gavin Free and Daniel Gruchy) have made their impressive entrance from balloons before, but those were water balloons. This time, they decided to see how large they could make the balloons with air before exploding out of them. 

At first Gruchy attempted to sit on the balloon as it was being blown up, but that failed miserably. So instead he climbed into the balloon (which is no easy task) and the balloon was then inflated.

In standard frame rate, it looks cool, but isn't that impressive.

However, everything is obviously better in slow motion.

Especially the delayed reaction.
