An enterprising photographer, Eadweard Muybridge,
captured a series of snapshots — a filmstrip — of a horse trotting

its constituent parts and examine them. One incredible example is the
video of the yellow balloon exploding above. At that speed, the water
appears much more viscous than it is, holding its shape for a few
thousandths of a second before gravity pulls it to the ground.

I don't have them handy, but I'm sure I've still got them in one of my boxes somewhere. I do know exactly where the shoebox full of negatives is.
Cool! Do you still have the photos of that we took of popping water balloons? I had a lot of fun taking those photos with you and we had to wait for the film to be developed to see if any of the photos actually turned out. One, two, three, pop/click!
