I have a large gas powered Radio controlled helicopter I would be willing to provide a high altitude/speed crash with it if you were willing to film it.

Good day!

Something different; doing what you do best (the slow-mo footage) showing the power, grace and finesse of flatwater sprint kayaker Morgan House of the USA National Team.
He has several videos on YouTube in which he edits some in slow motion, though is nothing compared with the gear you use to capture motion as you can.

Morgan WILL be a major player on 2012, having just missed this years games still several years from peak performance.

Thanks for your consideration.

Cheers!

Hey Jeff,
How about doing a warp with a gun of a different breed? I have an extremely rare Mark I 13mm gyrojet rocket pistol with a few rounds to burn. It was made in the 1960's, has a vented barrel for expanding gases, and is recoiless. The rocket leaves the barrel at relatively low velocity (200 fps or so) then accelerates to over the speed of sound in a few feet causing a sonic boom. Let me know what you think. Thanks, Chuck

While watching the liquid nitrogen episode, I saw the archery target in the background from a previous show. Here's my idea... Create a "curtain" of liquid nitro. Then shoot an arrow through the "curtain" at the target. Will the arrow collect enough L.N. to freeze the arrow? Even if it does, would the arrow shatter on impact with the target, or would the speed/time/distance from the curtain to the target cause the arrow to warm up enough to stick? Hmmmm?!

Hey Jeff! My friends and I deceided it would be a good idea to see what would happen if you smash a WD-40 can, turns out it blows up! I think it would be cool to slow down and look at the shrapnel! And remember, DONT TRY THIS AT HOME!

Tesla coil would be great to see.
Or any kind of lightning. A "lightning ball" that you can touch your finger to wouldn't be as neat though.
Great show!

A quick and easy idea would be lighting a match.

Hey Jeff, I was curious, what was it that inspired you to make a Television show, that was all about high speed cameras?

I'd love to see bullet-proof glass reacting to being hit by a bullet. Debris flying around, distortion of a lead bullet, and maybe, just maybe, the glass might even ripple a little, like in the movie matrix when the helicopter hit the building. It would be interesting to see where the energy is spent during the impact, mostly on the glass? or mostly on the bullet? Let's find out!

You should do one on what happens when a bowling ball hit the pins. And how curve or bowling straight effects your points or if u get a spare or strike.

I think a molotov cocktail would be very interesting to see when it is warped.
