TSX in gelatin at like 5:41-:50, OUCH. Last few seconds of the video shows some shot versus silhouette, looks devastating.

How does one time the shot hitting the bullet?

Average rifle bullets like that only spin about 200,000 RPMs. A dentist's drill spins over twice that. ^_^ Glad this video got re-posted again because I seen it before and was thinking about it a few days ago.

How much do you think that camera costs?

This one shoots 1,400,000 FPS.

It's not too common that people buy these things, but rather just rent them.

Really cool to see the hot lead and metal slowed down that much. I like vids like this one.

I've watched this a couple of times already and I'm amazed by how the rounds splash against the metal. I've also noticed how some of the jackets on the rifle rounds split along the scoring left by the rifling. Thanks again, good stuff.
