Richard Hammond's Invisible Worlds

BBC

Richard Hammond explores the extraordinary wonders of the world of

detail hidden in the blink of an eye.

The human eye takes about fifty milliseconds to blink. But it

takes our brain around a hundred and fifty milliseconds to process

what we see. We're not aware of this time lag going on, but in

those few milliseconds, there are extraordinary things happening

that completely pass us by.

But what if we could break through this speed limit? Bend and

stretch time in ways never thought possible. What new marvels

would we see?

Now, using the latest high-speed cameras, Richard takes us on a

journey beyond our eye's limits, letting us see secrets hidden in

every element of our planet.

A world where thin air can shatter rock.

And water can tear through metal.

A world where the fastest thing on earth lies right beneath our feet.

And where a spectacular celestial display is finally captured, even though many have claimed it doesn't even exist.

Despite starring Richard Hammond, Richard Hammond's Invisible Worlds (BBC One, Tuesday, 16 March, 9pm) looks rather good. Of course, this won't be an exercise in Hammond watching invisible things and cooing about how good they feel... and it won't feature people repeatedly falling in the water. No, this is about cameras being really effing cool.

Basically, your eyes are rubbish. You heard me. Mine are rubbish as well. That's because there's a whole load of brilliant stuff happening in the world and we can't see it.

Hammond goes off to explore the world of detail hidden in the time your eye does a blink. For the record, that's about 50 milliseconds worth of time. Worse still, our ailing species takes about 150 milliseconds to process what we see.

All manner of extraordinary things happen in that time that pass our lethargic brains.

So, using the latest high-speed cameras, Richard looks at a monitor and sees what we miss. Mercifully, it's shared with us. Expect infrared and all manner of mad shit in future episodes.

This should be ace.

Isto devia ter sido apresentado pelo Stephen Fry ou pelo James May, este tipo não foi talhado para estas coisas, mas o conteudo disfarça a lacunas da criatura.

Ver o Hammond no Top Gear a conduzir Audi's RS e depois ve-lo a apanhar bosta de cavalo... nada a ver :dumb:

[GODfromage]

Não menosprezem a bosta de cavalo.
