Ever seen a bullet blow through an apple in slow motion? How about a BMW M5?


Ever seen a bullet blow through an apple in slow motion? How about a BMW M5?

We’ve all seen those slow motion videos where a bullet explodes through an apple in slow motion, with debris flying everywhere. Well this BMW ad takes that to another level as it replaces the bullet with an M5 and the targets with giant props. The slow-mo is still there though, just watch and make sure to view it in HD.

The video appears to be a tribute to the work of Harold Eugene “Doc” Edgerton a pioneer of the use of the stroboscope in photography and the originator of those ‘bullet’ images you’ve seen involving apples and balloons.
