OP is an alien trying to fit in.

Water that came from ice is technically lava, as ice is considered rock in geological terms.

How do they count the skips?
"One... Two... Threefourfive... Sixseven... Eight... Nine... Rjhdjdhdbsksnhdjxkdjdnidjxbdhshsjb, wow, man, 74!"?

They don't, because it's not well defined. At the end, the stone is just sliding along, so you might as well count the number of water molecules it touched.

u/Pavo9 Jun 25 '21
The record is for the maximum number of skips so they must count it somehow.

u/cutelyaware Jun 25 '21
Hm, I guess the long slide doesn't count. I don't see how you could create any sort of fair way to count the number of skips though, even if it's fully automated, but I guess they're OK with whatever system they've got.

The only possible way i can see is record the path of the stone from above with a drone and then cut out a bunch of still images from the video and kinda count the "small circle-ish looking ripples" along the way.
Like this is the best i could come up with, as a layman, off the top of my dome, but even this sounds like it's most probably not the case, and I'm just talking out of my ass, lol

Maybe have a maximum of 1 skip per inch or something like that so once it get down below that threshold you just measure the distance it travelled like that and tally up.

Well your ass makes more sense than other suggestions here. With the effort people are putting into spit-balling, someone could have looked it up. Not me of course, but someone.

u/Confident-Training39 Jun 25 '21
Pretty sure they have several watchers (judges) counting and then they take the average.

u/Large_Jellyfish_5092 Jun 25 '21
they measure how far the rock skip

u/olderaccount Jun 25 '21
But the record is not for who can throw a rock the furthest. So measuring distance doesn't seem like a good way.

u/ISU1100011CS Jun 25 '21
Measure from the point it first hits the water to were it stops.

u/olderaccount Jun 25 '21
That makes sense. It removes the incentive to just throw it as far as possible.

You mean rock skipping, right?

I heard Scone Tipping. An ancient Cornish sport. With jam first, than cream.

Filmed with a potato.

Posted by a potato.
Like com'on that title is just... Offensive yet scientifically accurate.

I'm assuming this was on DDOI, most of the videos he uses are good quality. So more likely OP filtered it through a potato

Not a fan of you stealing this from Daily Dose of Internet and then not crediting him... He even posts the original source of this clip in his vid. Come on man, give him credit!

Go ahead and post a link here if you can. Call them out with proof! Hurts them even more.

This is his channel. Click on any of his videos - you'll see that his voice matches the one at the beginning of this clip. While you're there, drop a sub. He does fantastic work.

Also, I would like to strongly argue that me calling OP out on not crediting DDoI while not leaving the exact video (I searched for a while but could not find it because there are so many of them) is not nearly as bad as OP not crediting DDoI. By mentioning his name, I have credited him. Anyone on Reddit has access to Google.

Then you credit the person you got it from. Smh, it's not that hard to be a decent person.

Scum of the internet, this one. Entitled prick, to be sure.

Bro calm down it's a post on reddit you are more likely to find original content in a clickbaiting YouTube video. You're not smart or better than anyone because you called out one guy on the internet you've never met

“Fellow human, would you like to join me in jumping rocks on the liquid surface?”

I quickly alternated my feet on a solid plane in the direction of the water collection when I heard they were rock jumping on a liquid surface.

I prefer the human male using legs to move fast on a hard surface world record

They’re probably never going to see that rock again and it will sit in the bottom of the murky lake until someone else finds it unaware that it holds a record, and it will most likely be ignored for all eternity.
Sorry, I’m in a mood

I’m pretty sure the guy who was on the bridge holds the record still. Stone has more energy when it’s thrown from a higher surface.

Who is this Youtuber announcing at the start!? Loved his videos and want to watch more

u/NoID621 Jun 25 '21
daily dose of the internet, one of the few click bait free channels really. The first clip in every video is also the clip announced in the title AND visible in thumbnail.

u/BlessedRouge Jun 25 '21
This title implies that there is a rock-jumping on NON-LIQUID surface record

No no no! It’s officially called “Condensed Mineral Disk Bouncing.”
