You’ve seen how a pinball machine works, now check out a popcorn maker in super slow motion, as captured by Phantom VEO 4K and T4040 cameras. Street vendors typically fill this type of metal, teardrop-shaped container with popcorn kernels, seal it, and then use a charcoal flame to begin the cooking process.
The popcorn popping process begins when the street vendor opens a lever on the side that shoots air into the metal cooker, relieving the pressure and shooting out freshly popped kernels. In this experiment, The Slow Mo Guys had to create a custom contraption, or a wooden plank with the popcorn maker attached to one end with a pull string attached to the lever. This allowed them to safely relieve the pressure in the container from a distance while the cameras captured the action.
