Hey guys,
I received a KIL email announcement that Nick "Pappy Dog" and Kalani "Poi Dog" are on a show called "Time Warp." Nick's episode is apparently on Wed April 15 on the Discovery channel.
I watched the first episodes this week and saw the preview of a stick striking a belly in super slow motion. The crux of the show is a 1000 frames/second (could be more, please correct) camera that slows down events by a factor of about 10 (according to cameramen on show. The numbers don't match up, so I think they made adjust the frame rate according to the duration of the event. 1000 fps /30 fps = 33x and 1000/60 fps = 16x)

Yes their math is wonky.
SA1 can go 1 million frames per second but the resolution is horrible. Fastest actually used is 30,000 fps. Average is 5000 fps but go to 20,000 on a regular basis.
SA2 goes 10,000 fps but usually set at 1000-5000.
Phantom goes 1000 fps. Matt doesn't like to use it.
Fastec cube cams do 750 fps at decent quality.
This is a little better explanation
Nick

Woof All:
Pappy put the producers in touch with me. This thread is an off-shoot.

Pappy, Poi, and Tennessee, did an awesome job on the Time Warp show on Discovery Channel tonight. You stoled the show! :evil:

Congratulations to Nick, Kalani and Erik. What a great show. The human endurance contests always deserve a lot of man points. Kalani's belly strike slow motion video is destined to be an Internet reference classic.
