Take one Rich Tea biscuit, which by the way is an incredible sacrifice by me, as they are great dunking biscuits. Stick it in front of an 0.177 air pistol and pull the trigger.
The muzzle velocity of this Beeman air pistol is approx 130 metres/second and the dangerous end was about 250mm from the biscuit.
A microphone was strapped to the pistol which was connected into a Time Machine. The Time Machine allows me to delay triggering the flashguns by a very small adjustable amount, in this instance 2 milliseconds. If you do the sums the pellet should of traveled 260mm in 2 milliseconds.
Two flashguns were used about 200mm from the biscuit and set to 1/128 of full power giving me a flash duration of approx. 1/35,000 second. The exposure was 2" @ f11 ISO 200 on a EOS 40D and a 100mm macro lens.
The blurred pellet is just visible in the end of the debris trail. The reason why it is blurred is that during the flash exposure of 1/35,00 second it has traveled almost 4mm.
Safety gear was worn i.e. full face safety visor and the pellet was caught by a target holder just out of shot on the right. I would NOT like to feel the pellet rebounding into my face!
If you start playing with this type of thing DO NOT BE STUPID

It was the first thing they had taught him and he never forgot it. He could move unobserved in daylight, too; in other ways. But the night was his special friend."
