Spyderco vs Balloon

#1

Post by jabba359 »

This weekend I got to bring home a new toy for work and decided to see what would happen if my Caly Jr got in a fight with a water balloon. The following is real and not for the squeamish.

Caution: Graphic Content!

^The Vimeo link above won't embed, but is a higher quality video. YouTube compresses it too much and causes artifacts, but if that's what you want, here it is below.

That was worth the click! How do you go about filming at 2400fps? I used to use 16mm at 600fps for some very specialized work that has now gone digital. It took a few seconds for the cameras to spool up to speed.

Cheers,

Rick
