The frame rates they're using are mindboggling.

Very interesting. Would there ever be a need to run one that fast?

My biggest concern was that the two guys didn't have a shield between them and the cd; at least they had goggles on. Those shards flying around could cut.

You can't fix stupid.

Interesting that it warped so much, the stress/torque on the edge looks like what causes the beginning of the cracking apart.

Very cool video. Gotta have some good equipment to film that.

Whats up with the partially chopped tree or is that beaver chew marks? :lol

Just did; if I didn't now know better, I would have thought it to be a polar bear. lol

I'm part Chippewa so I suppose my ancestors would have been well aware of this bear. :)
