Watch a watermelon wrapped in rubber bands explode in slow-motion

(CBS News) Have you ever wondered if you could cause a watermelon to explode by wrapping a ton of rubber bands around it? And have you additionally wondered what that explosion would end up looking like in super slow-motion? The answer to both questions is "probably not", but it's very cool to watch happen anyways. Check it out in the video above.

So did I call it?  Pretty cool, right?  The answer-to-a-question-you-probably-never-asked video (but was amazing to watch all the same) was done by The Slow Mo Guys, who have been featured here on The Feed a few times in the past for their fun perspectives on all things super slow-motion.  Another masterpiece, guys!  To check out more from The Slow Mo Guys, you can visit their YouTube page by clicking here.
