Description:
This Pete Smith Specialty short showcases Dr. Harold E. Edgerton's stroboscopic photography, a process he pioneered. The technique captures fast events in slow motion, revealing details invisible to the human eye. The film features examples like a bullet piercing a light bulb, a football kicker's impact with the ball, and the rapid wingbeats of a hovering hummingbird.
