I’ll go for the ELI5: imagine running through a forest as fast as you can. Are you able to see or count individual leafs lying on the ground? No. This is what 30 fps video is like. You can see tree’s and bushes, but seeing the small stuff becomes hard.

Now imagine how many details you can see when you really take the time. When you stand still or are walking really slowly, you have more time to let your eyes focus and all of the sudden you see small insects, maybe a rabbithole and tons more. You can look at more things per meter you walk.

When you are recording video at 10000 fps and playing it back at a more regular 30fps, you are essentially walking really slow through the forest. For each second passing you take many more photos, thus catching much more file details, just like you have more time to look at little things when walking instead of running.
