| Post to FB: on.fb.me Come on, we've all wondered this. There's been dozens of videos and discussions on the internet about it, but what actually happens? I'm shooting with a high speed camera made by Vision Research. www.visionresearch.com - Click here and tell them Destin sent you! That will be fun. www.visionresearch.com - Click for high speed video awesomeness AWESOME MUSIC INFO: "Rep By Pop" Written and recorded by James Cleary and A Shell in the Pit with bass by Neil Towers. You can get the song here: ashellinthepit.bandcamp.com Several before/after experiments have been performed, but they all have one flaw. It's extremely difficult to visualize what is going on with the flow-fields of the weapon blasts during the time of firing. We planned and assembled several different assets including a high speed camera over a few months and then ran a test designed specifically to allow the viewer to observe the gas dynamics in great detail! Needless to say, this was a blast. Well, two blasts if you want to be technical about it (and we usually do). I performed an experiment to see what the differences were between semi-automatic pistols and revolvers. The advantage of shooting under water is that you can see the boundary of the gas flow fields almost perfectly. |
