Beautifull Shockwave in Super Slo Mo!!

Hi all,

I am an avid watcher of everything Science and was amazed by the BBC Program Invisible world presented by Richard Hammond.

I recommend watching it at 480p...



You can watch it here in 720p HD - Though it cuts the fact that they have to be one mile away!!





I have very rarely been moved such as I was when watching this...

Simply Awe inspiring!!

Peace Out,

Korg.

That is a beautiful shockwave in slow motion. I've seen many shockwaves that only take a split second and I was always amazed at seeing how fast the shockwaves always were and how deadly they really are.

Nice post Korg Trinity.

Holy wow, anybody else notice the pyramid shape the blast cause, with the golden apex at the top??

This has left me scratching my head with egyptian wonder.....

Wow just Wow.

I like watching things blow up.

But probably you knew that already.

Here's an interesting video real time.

Enjoy

Then you will get a kick out of this 57 megaton bomb exploaded by the russians in 1961.





I wonder how far the camera was??

All the best,

For all those who like shockwaves, enjoy:



Pay attention to the depression in the ocean water cased by pressure blast from the gun muzzle of of USS Iowa.

Outstanding stuff all of you. I always found it ironic just how beautiful the most deadly things can be - both manmade and in nature.

Here is a shockwave at full speed.



I wonder if it would be possible to create a shockwave without the bomb somehow. If its the shockwave that does the damage then maybe an acoustic bomb would be some serious munitions.

Peace out,
