Who needs an uber-expensive Phantom camera or fancy slow-mo software when you can fake the effect with dance?

It uses warping and interpolation to provide smooth results, avoiding the choppiness that you see when you play normal video back in "slow motion".

Google just released the latest beta version of its Chrome browser, and created a pretty amazing video to demonstrate how fast pages load. Using a Phantom v640 high speed camera, they film the browser racing random Rube Goldberg-style contraptions at up to 2700 frames per second. For example, in one test Chrome races a potato gun. Sweet.
