Ask your parents... They where what we used befors an electronic flash. They where 4 flash bulbs in a cube that rotated after each shot. Real old school.
@ultraslo Old school is awesome! Although you mean "they were" not "they where," ... i.e. "WHERE did you two go? we WERE going to the store, but then decided on pizza instead"
WOW!! Awesome!! When I was a kid, my brothers and I used to take apart the flash cubes and set off the bulbs with a 9 volt battery. But it never looked this cool!!
Mom caught us one time and got royally pissed off. "Do you know how much these things cost??" LOL Good times.
Flash bulbs are brighter than modern day flashes. Infact, the millitary still use them as it is the brightest flash available. They are not made anymore but there are back stocks of them.
LOL, no, the real life one. it sat on the top of the camera and had four sides, and each time you took a pic it would rotate to the next one. When you took 4 pics you pulled it off, threw it out and inserted a new one.
oh god i'm a friggin retard. i should have just read the info. anyways, again, freaking cool video -i'm really surprised that this is how a flash bulb looks in slow mo.
its old flashlight from camera. its a bulb filled with oxygen and it has some magnesium wires in it. when you make photo, electric impulse heats up the wires so they burn. this bulb is one-time use only
WOW! What a coincidence! When I was walking my dog this morning I was actually thinking about you guys and how you could make a slow-mo video of a flash from a camera. This is pretty darn close. :D
you should do one with just a regular light bulb just to have people fathom that even slowed down to extreme speeds, light's speed is just crazy! (3.0 x 10^8 m/s)
i just set off one of those little fireworks that looks like an M-80 but it spins on the ground and shoots different color sparks. would LOVE to see one of those from you
how bout when switching off the tv? can you record that? i mean, in a dark room to see how the picture goes off when the tv is being switched off. just a thought.
we will try the ice one, we have 2 egg shots up and there will be more too. The tramp is also comming. thanks and feel free to thro more ideas into the hat.
I like the glowing molten bubbles at the end.

Guys, light travels at what?
187,000 miles per second? the fastest slomotion camera's ever can't do that, and i pretty sure the video would be a couple months/years long.

I wish we had had this technology when I was in high school, 50 years or so. It would have made many principles much easier to comprehend.

I have a few ideas for you.
An egg droping on the floor
A Trampoline jumping
Throwing a water bottle with the cap off
You can try making one of those water bottles that you put something in it and the water freezes instantly when its disturbed and try getting that
I can think of more stuff if you want msg me :]
