What's Up...

Today's clip is going viral again, though it popped up around the same time last year. The internet has spoken, so I thought it was a good idea to show you today's clip if you haven't already seen it. It's a relatively simple concept, grab a shaggy dog, rub it with a blanket, and watch as science happens!

The static electricity from the blanket paired with the dry day works just like those low-powered Tesla coils and takes this dog (not sure what breed) and makes its hair stand on end!

Last Week's Video:
Overdramatic Kitten Toss
Shot on a canon 7D, edited in FCP with twixtor to slow it down to about 800 frames per second. Its my cat oscar, being thrown through the air in slow motion. proof that anything slowed down is way cooler.
