Paint Exploding in Slow Motion is Colorfully Spectacular

The Slow-Mo Guys are at it again, but this time they are making a mess of rainbow proportions.

They lit jars of paint on fire and watched as they blew up, splattering colors everywhere. They framed the explosions with a camera running at 15,000 frames per second -- that's 600 times slower than human vision in real time -- to show us the slow motion bursts of color.

There were no special effects added, but you'll still feel as if you're watching a miniature fireworks show.

And we definitely wouldn't recommend trying this at home, unless you were planning to repaint the ceilings.
