This is extremely cool. Super slow-motion movies make me realize that people only see a small slice of reality.

How about popcorn popping shot at 16,000 fps on the Popcorn Board's web site (www.popcorn.org)? You can actually see moisture/steam escaping from the initial kernel explosion. Very cool.
