How long can a McDonald's paper cup hold liquid? - 4K Time Lapse

#timelapse #mcdonalds #cup
Bear in mind, this video is not a statement against McDonald's. Obviously, they have to coat their cups with a thin plastic film otherwise the drink would soak through in minutes if not seconds. Not only McDonald's, but almost all paper cup has a plastic film in them. It's about the proportions, and most part of the cup is made of paper, which is an environmentally friendly material.
McDonald's pays close attention to the climate, and they work hard to build a more sustainable food industry, which includes lowering the emission of greenhouse gases, developing and using sustainable packaging and dealing with its recycling, lowering the agriculture's impact on the planet, conserving our forests, and making one of their top priorities to use the planet's water resources responsibly. If anything, McDonald's should be the role model of many other restaurants.

I believe this needed to be said because I don't want people to misinterpret this time-lapse.

Now about the video itself:
Have you ever wondered how long could McDonald's paper cup hold your drink? Me too...
Watch this McDonald's paper cup time-lapse video to find out.
For this project, I captured more than 124 000 photos. I had to use a very frequent interval otherwise I would have missed the interesting moment when the cup finally broke down.

They were orange juice, Pepsi, and water. I removed the water so early because nothing interesting happened to it, it just evaporated slowly, and by removing that cup I had more space on the screen for the 2 remaining ones. And I removed the Pepsi as well for the very same reason, so I could get closer to the orange juice cup which started to look the worst. I topped it up with water from time to time because it would have evaporated many times over, and the main goal was to "break" the cup.

I thought it would be done in a couple of days. What do you think, are you surprised? Let me know in the comments below ;) 👇🤝 Be sure to share this video with a friend too! Thanks for watching!
