144hz footage

set up one rig connected to two monitors displaying the same image and the same game (you really don't need a powerful rig to fuel 144hz in the right games). set it to some relateable shooter like CS:GO or Overwatch (turn down the settings if you're having a hard time reaching 144hz) and have it vs bots or something. have one panel as a 60hz and one as a 144hz. have them sitting side by side. people can walk up, move around, shoot some derpy AI's, And very easily feel the difference in the two monitors.

 

Its all well and good to be able to observe the fluidity difference between 60hz and 144hz on a video (or 24fps vs 48 fps), but even that won't translate well the responsiveness advantage you gain by such a massively increased framerate. You need an interactive example for someone to really FEEL the difference between the two panels rather than just looking at smoother images.

Exactly what I just said, but better. My idea isn't quite a simple or cool.

And today you two might learn that the frame rate of a video can be anything you want. Anything. Those super slow mo videos? Those aren't running at 30 fps.

 

I know. I was thought OP was asking for movies or something at 144hz. And the highest framerate camera only records at 120,000 fps (I think) so assuming you want to play back at native speed, you can't have ANY framerate you want  

 

also ussualy slo mo footage is ussualy ~5k fps played and at 30 fps.

Video is very hard to show the benefits of very high refresh rates. Just think of the difference between a 24fps video vs a 24fps game. Watching a video is such a different context than gaming that it can be very hard to see the difference since you're not actively interacting with the video making it much harder to see the difference. The best bet is to have them actually play a game at those framerates. Alternatively, use something like UFO test to really help people visualize the difference.
