Sometimes, You Just Need to Slow Down and Take a Look Around. . .

. . . and sometimes, you need a high-speed camera to do it for you.

For instance, have you ever wondered how a popped balloon actually pops? Well, wonder no more!



While we're on the subject of popping. . . what about popcorn?



Some gunshots:



A lighter:



Welding(The light is an electric arc between welder and metal, and the what looks like a waving cloth is actually molten metal):



Atomic bomb explosions(try to ignore the music):



And finally. . . well, see for yourself.
