The Real Speed of Glass Cracking—Filmed at 10 Million Frames Per Second
Along with some awesome slow motion shots this video breaks down the science of breaking glass. Shared by The Action Lab on YouTube:
In this video I talk about the actual speed of glass breaking, then I show you how fast glass cracks actually propagate by showing footage from a Shimadzu hypervision HPV-X camera filmed at 10 million frames per second. I talk about how the speed of glass actually varies per glass type and during the glass breaking.
