If you liked this definitely checkout some of his other videos. At the level of work that he does you have to have a really solid model of reality and a lot of learned experience of how to measure and manipulate at extreme scales. He makes it look easy but this kind of thing really isn't. Just a lot of fun seeing such a talented and educated person do a really neat demonstration.

Once you go 1mil fps you can't go back
I just watched this a few hours ago and it's really cool! I never thought something of this speed would be possible in a garage with $1k or so in parts.
I remember this being a thing several years ago. The researchers in the video I originally saw used a Coke bottle.
Yes he talks about that in the video. The researchers used $500k+ of equipment. He built a similar thing for under $1k
