About Discovery Channel's "Time Warp" TV program
Seeing is believing, and that's what the "Time Warp" television series, produced by Discovery Channel, does. Through incredible slow-motion footage the magic of science is revealed in an awe-inspiring - and entertaining - approach.

Using high-speed cameras (some at 5,000 frames per second) and a passion for science, the program focuses on everyday occurrences and amazing talents. A few examples:

- A martial arts expert catches arrows barehanded.
- The Blue Man Group re-decorates using a catapult and buckets of paint.
- A ride on one of the tallest roller coasters at Six Flags demonstrates the laws of physics.
- Cotton candy is high tech using centrifugal force.
- A load of bricks falls and crushes a car.
- An axe shatters a block of ice into shards.
