Very cool video shot mostly at 1000 frames per second at a rugby game. (http://vimeo.com/4167288?pg=embed&sec=)

At first I thought, what is the point in 1000fps? We can't even see that quality. Then I watched it and it was slowed down. It was pretty damn cool.

That red (jello?) block almost seems to levitate after boucing. Very cool video!

I've been seeing an ad lately for a new show on the Discovery Channel called "Time Warp", where they film things at 10,000 fps. I'm looking forward to it.

Check out Discovery Channel's "Time Waro" (http://dsc.discovery.com/tv/time-warp/time-warp.html).

They use the Photron Fastcam SA1 (http://www.visionsensorsmag.com/CDA/Articles/Industry_Headlines/BNP_GUID_9-5-2006_A_10000000000000482527), which can deliver up to 5,400 fps in HDTV! Higher fps in lower quality, it seems.

Thanks to HarryKeogh.
I would have thought that the rugby ball would have deformed more though. I am surprised to see it remain rugby ball shaped when kicked.

I have tried to find a soccer ball kicked and filmed in a similar manner but this will have to do;-

I thought, judging from Mythbusters’ and Time Warp’s use of slow-motion video, that the subject always has to be lit very brightly to get a good result.

I’m impressed.

Saw this some time ago, there's quite a few such videos on YouTube. My favorite is the water balloon getting popped in ultra slow-motion.
