Stunning photos show bullet flying through a waterdrop
 
Photographs faster than a speeding bullet – these catch the missile flying through a splashing waterdrop.

I wonder how long it took for them to get that precision.

Patrick 03-02-2012 02:48 PM

That bullet is tiny and sh*te.

Crimson Dynamo 03-02-2012 02:51 PM

yes, we all wonder what a bullet through a drop of water looks like....

Smithy 03-02-2012 02:52 PM

Ninastar 03-02-2012 02:56 PM

You don't need to be in the army to know what a decent looking bullet is.

But FYI... that's a rat.. ;)

King Gizzard 03-02-2012 03:22 PM

and Patrick, that bullet is flying at 438439843893894 miles an hour, it's impossible to know what size it is

You know what seems pointless to me... Posting in a thread you aren't remotely interested in.

For example, you don't see me posting in a Rihanna thread, or a Football thread. Neither of these things interest me in the slightest. Both of them bore me to death.

I see no purpose in this except to troll or bate the other users.

Just saying...

-approves of the gaga hate in this thread-

Nice series of pictures.

Shame its not a speeding bullet, its an air rifle pellet. The photographer even says its speed was 260 m/s. sort of gives you a clue.

Second clue was in the Mails own article, in the blue box detailing "How the process works".

Para E states Precise calculations are used to measure exactly when the drop and pellet arrive at the same point. The whole process takes 28 milliseconds.

No, but you do have to have some creative intelligence to appreciate art.
