Do you know how your dog uses its tongue to drink? How exactly does a face contort when punched by an 'ultimate fight champion?' What happens when an egg falls into the spinning blades of a fan? Or when an apple is hit with a bullet?
With nothing but your naked eye to guide you, you have not really got a clue. In fact, there are countless events the world has to offer that our limited senses cannot fully appreciate ... until now.
Welcome to Discovery Channel's Time Warp on Fridays at 10pm, in which Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) scientist and teacher, Jeff Lieberman, uses new technologies to bring never-before-seen wonders into a form that your eyes can actually process. The invisible becomes visible as Jeff and the Time Warp team reveal our world in an astonishing and spectacular new way by changing the lens of time.
Time bending and mind blowing, Time Warp lets viewers see and appreciate things that are normally beyond our senses because they take place much too quickly or slowly. By employing state of the art camera equipment, editing techniques and high-speed photography, the Time Warp lab demonstrates what really happens with every crack, fissure and crash.
Time Warp takes some natural events (a cat licking its paw, a champagne bottle being opened, the break of a matchstick) - and some not-so-natural (a water balloon to the face, a raw piece of chicken exploding) - and turns them into a thing of both beauty and learning. Each frame will tell an extraordinary story. So prepare for a stunning visual experience and to witness the unexpected.
