OK Guys, here’s the set-up

Back in the 1950’s just as nuclear fission was being discussed openly, Walt Disney attempted to show how a chain reaction started and developed. On “Disneyland” (the television show on Sunday evenings) he filled a large room (in my tired old mind, it could have been a gymnasium) with specially adapted mouse traps. Each mouse trap had been altered to be able to hold a ping-pong ball on the bail. At the conclusion of the explanation on the principals of chain reaction, Mr. Disney tossed one lone ping-pong ball randomly into the collection of mouse traps on the floor. The results were spectacular!

It would be even more spectacular, given the Discovery Channel Platinum Card and your Slo-Mo cameras!!! Make this one happen!!!
