you do know that you can slow down any video right ??
do you know that regular video is recorded and played at 24 frames a second? High speed cameras can hit 1000 frames a second so when its played back at the regular 24fps speed its not only slow but it captures a lot of infromation and detail. The video above could not be replicated with a regular 24fps camera.
Kuwait really needs a race track.
Never heard about a 1000 frames, the max I know is 120 (some mobiles have that.)
Video above was shot with this casio which goes up to 1200 frames and second

Yeah Ive seen the mythbuster stuff;p They pop a water balloon and you still see the water suspended in mid air in a balloon shape!
That slow mo thing reminds me of the movie 300.
The sequel should have more than donuts. =O
“Kuwait really needs a race track.

We have one.
Where’s that? :| And is it a track or a drag strip?
where is the track ..and hope next v see will b wrangler:D
this video is gay!
any fool with a car can drift in the desert!
this video isnt about the drifting skills
ive never hear of a race track in kuwait, where is it?
they need to advertise it more so people who are doing all their tricks on the high ways could have somewhere to play without putting other peoples lives in danger. and it would be fun to go watch competitions if they had any
oh and the video quality pretty sick! :)
Rafeek,
Here’s a video from that was taken with mostly 1000FPS shots:
