Apple on a Stick

Here are stills from some video footage I shot today. Wasteful, I know- but fun!

Don't make apples like they used to.

Getting to watch something blow up is NEVER wasteful.

Pretty cool!

(EDIT: Just to be clear, I mean the GOOD, fun kind of blowing up...not the kind with malicious intent...)

Thanks! The clearly defective apple was dispatched with a standard pressure 9mmFMJ from a 3 in. barrel. Here's the vid I made for more info- I know we can't mention the G-word in here, and likely the B-word is bad, as well, lol. Anyway, I used a pair of Pentax K-01's and fortunately only needed one take.

neat video.
To make it more rewarding you can add a collection device underneath it, and with enough apples disposed of, you could have some fresh apple cider all ready for you.

Ha!! This was in my yard, and the debris was already attracting the dreaded Yellow Jackets by the time I had gathered up my gear! I live "out in the sticks", and this year has been awful for Yellow jackets. They were buzzing around one of the cameras, too- for some reason the high frequency sounds coming from a K-01 really piss them off (or is it the yellow color). I call 2014 the Year of Stings...
