Hey, it's me, Destin. So, um... We got a hairbrained idea and we came to an art festival... It's not really an art festival, it's a festival, here in Alabama.

We've made art with bullets and tried to sell it. So this is what we've got. We've got a bunch of art that we've made with, uh... with bullet impacts. And we tried to make the manliest setup possible. I know it's a rainbow, but I made it, which makes it manly.

[Bang] [Bang] [Bang] [Bang] Oh, that was sweet, dude. So so far we've had... how much success? - Zero. - Zero, but we're men. - We're men.

We also have a high speed camera.

[Briley] We're introducing the public to high speed video. Welcome to Smarter Every Day.

[Splash] (Destin) Alright. So what we do is we just capture the image, or video of her popping a balloon and what we're going to do is go back and play it.

It's kind of like a time machine, only different, so... Look at this, right here.

[Music] Captioning in different languages welcome. Please contact Destin if you can help.
