This is a video of a golf ball hitting steel at 150 MPH.
It was filmed at 70,000 FPS. The whole clip happened in
less than 1/1000th of a second.

There is other fun stuff on the site as well.

Thank you,

I am glad you enjoyed the link. I found it to be
everything you have called it. I am especially glad the
some of my favorite people have enjoyed it.

I am also glad you have enjoyed the avatar. It has
changed my perception of when it is worthwhile to post
so I thought I would share it. Nice to have it well received.
