OT: Discovery channel's "Time Warp" drummer

[Rusty James]

For any nutters out there that watch Discovery Channel, you might find this episode of “Time Warp” interesting.
Drummer Michael Mangini shows us how fast he can lay it down.
Toward the end of this short video they show how the head of the snare drum reacts whilst being struck in slow motion and the following cymbal crash…well, it’s no wonder my 18” Paiste crash/ride shattered.

Starting at 4:15 -- Holy. Shit. The cymbal is crazy.

Thanks for that, caligula.

I watched it earlier and it seemed to work fine. It was Waaaaay cool. It made me want to go hit things...so I did.

Trippy video! Thanks Calig!

But you broke your ride? I'm going to hide my Blue bell when you come over!

No worries Tamadude!
It was a very used and somewhat abused cymbal when I bought it before it finally ended up in pieces (it was mainly used as a crash).
