Watch A Ping Pong Ball Go 500 Miles An Hour

Commenter Chasmodius had this question to ask:

I wonder what it would look like (in slow motion, especially) if you had a source of colored smoke or powder mixed in the air that was coming in the tube behind the ball.

Commenter Vojteck had this to say:

Just look on Mythbusters, they are done that.

Is he right?  MythBusters has some cool experiments but not sure one just like this.

We hope you like the video!

    I shot a full can of root beer once with a very large caliber rifle. Remember that vibrating platform experiment in school? Yeah, but A LOT faster. Bottom of can embedded about 1/2″ into hard dirt. The top of the can was found about 20′ away and everything in between was shredded into little strips
