Racing in slow motion

This is beautiful, almost breathtaking.  When watching racing in real-time, a lot of tiny moments fly by without being noticed.  In this video, they are brought back to us – everything from small things like sparks and flying dirt, to crashes and people’s reactions.

This video is the fourth installment in the series, and it’s the most awesome.  If you want to check the other ones, here they are: part 3, part 2, and the original.  Subscribe to the RacingInSlowMotion YouTube channel to be notified of the new uploads.

Divers’ faces

Via kottke.org I came across this rather entertaining photo gallery of divers’ faces as they compete in the World Championship.  Some are scary, some are funny, but all of them are unique and standing out.  Not something you see every day.

This gallery also reminded me of a ping pong faces gallery from 2004 Olympics.
