Slo-Mo Leg Waxing Is (Almost) As Painful To Watch As To Do

OUCH!

The Slow Mo Guys suffer for their art in their new video. 

Britons Gavin Free and Daniel Gruchy slap wax onto their hairy legs and rip off the strips ― while filming it all at an agonizingly slow 28,000 frames per second.

The close-up slow-motion footage looks as painful and disgusting as you’d imagine.

“While most of the comments on these videos are about the gnarly slow motion footage, many have commented on how hairy Gav and Dan are,” they wrote on their YouTube channel Sunday. “Only one thing for it.”

The video garnered more than 800,000 views in the first 12 hours, and follows the pair exploding items underwater, smashing mirrors with hammers and crashing Lego airplanes.

Check it out in the clip above.
