Last February we featured Smarter Every Day’s video exploration of the fascinating and mysterious Prince Rupert’s Drop. It’s worth watching before the video above if you want some context to what you’re seeing.

Above is Destin’s follow-up to his first video, this time shooting a bullet at a Prince Rupert’s Drop and recording the results with a Phantom ultra high-speed camera. The footage is simply remarkable.
