Slow Motion for Boneman



I have just watched Boneman's video about 'Energy in Jello' over at Stuff I Found on the Net ... really cool video and I was reminded of this ad for Schweppes which is a soft drink manufacturing company here in Australia and various countries.
This is a television commerial where ultra slow motion cameras capture Schweppervescence at 10,000 frames per second...I think this is really clever advertising. ♥

    So cool! I've never seen a balloon burst that way in slow motion. And I liked the music, too :)

    That brand (too lazy to spell it) has been here too (for decades ... it's an old brand).

    I like the song so much, that I plan to inflict - er, share - it with my coworkers in the form of a repeating loop throughout the work week.

    Thanks dear Sarah Sofia , I'm pleased that you liked the video and the music, its a nice ad, the music is called 'To Build A Home' by the The Cinematic Orchestra .

    Yes dear I do need the surgery, my physio, GP and two surgeons have said so, thanks for your concern. <3

    Yes /t. dear, it is a cool ad, very clever how they have captured the 'burst' in slow motion.

    Yes Schweppes is a very old brand, its been here for as long as I can remember, I believe its origins are in Europe around 1780. ♡

    Thanks dear Diane , I think its a cool ad, I was quite impressed with it when I first saw it on TV, I loved the music too, it is by 'The Cinematic Orchestra', there is a link to the song on youTube in my reply to Sarah Sofia if you would like to hear the whole song.
    The 'burst' looks great in slow motion. :) ♡

    Yes Puggles my sweet, Schweppes have been around since 1783, so it is a very old brand; they make delightful beverages. :-)

    I'm sorry you dont like the music but I cant get it right all of the time. ;-) ♡

    Yes Foamie my dear friend,

    you did remember correctly, I did post the song before, it is one of my favourites, I love the piano...and I think Pug had the same reaction to the song last time I posted it here. ♡

    Mmmm,a gin and tonic, sounds great with a twist of lemon, very refreshing.
    That is one drink that I like, trouble is it doesn't like me as I dont drink alcoholic beverages.

    My son made me a couple of G&T'S a few Christmases ago and I was having a great time...very happy... trouble is I woke up with the worst hangover next morning. :(

    So enjoy your gin and tonic lovely Foamie and have one for me too. ♡

    Lol /t. dear,

    I guess six drinks or more would take the pain away, income tax returns are such a pain in the butt and they get more complicated each year.

    If I had six drinks I would be unconscious. :/ ♡
