The Slow Mo Guys, Gav and Dan, are struggling to make videos together due to the COVID-19 pandemic and their 5,000-mile distance apart. They come up with a humorous idea to use a time machine to film a video with Colin Furze before the pandemic. They contact Colin, who claims to have a "50/50" time machine, and plan to meet up in November 2017. Colin picks them up in his "time machine" (a DeLorean) and they head to his workshop to film a video featuring his pulse jet engine. The slow-motion footage showcases the engine's inner workings, flames, and hot gas. The trio experiments with different angles, revving up the engine, and observing the effects. They also film the engine's exterior, capturing flames and sparks. Throughout the video, they engage in witty banter and humorous commentary.
