That was pretty cool. My favourite part was when you could see the reflection of the camera on the back of the clock. (So a 'high-speed camera operator' actually operates it like a normal camera? I exepected it to be some sort of huge device operated from afar from some reason.)
The dome shatter was awesome, as well as the gears flying off of the second drop. Loved seeing the spinning hand at the end.
We've got one of those clocks in our house. It's an authentic one that we wouldn't want to break, though. I'm glad you simply broke the cheap-o version.
If they had gotten two, I would have loved a comparison of dropping from the bottom and one from upside down, both with glass; even so, that one was one of the cooler drops. Apparently glass and water look the coolest in slow motion.
I'm catching up on Drops I didn't get a chance to watch on the day due to Desert Bus and this one seems like the prime example of why safety goggles are a must.
