[color=cc9900]25 million frames per second, and a maximum total of... 125 frames. Making a grand total of, oh, 0.000005 seconds recording. Not much happens unless you involve explosives.

Not that I have anything against explosives, mind.[/color]

...because one second every million years just isn't accurate enough.

shouldn't that grenade detonation at least have the pin AND safety removed?..

[q]HAND GRENADE- Alternate frames of a 26 frame sequence taken at 2/3 million frames per second of an electrically detonated hand grenade.[/q]

I guess not. ;)

the pin didn't even move a nanometer..

The pin is the mechanical detonation. An electric detonation, I'm guessing, does not require the pin to move any number of nanometers. ;)

well, i was referring by the amount of outward force that the explosion would generate..

The explosion's wavefront passed the pin long before the pin's own inertia would be overcome and it would start to move.
