This is what Jackass 2.0 looks like. The Danish TV show Dumt & Farligt put together a video highlighting objects getting destroyed in super slow motion. Teetering between nerdy artful and downright sophomoric, these guys prove dumping a container of creme fraiche into a lawn mower looks more poetic at 2500 frames per second. Multiple clips involve either a). fireworks and/or b). blowing things up in a microwave. Don't try this at home, kids. I pity the producer who had to clean up after this shoot.

As your token Danish viewer (I watch The Last Word religiously on the internet) I should probably give a bit of a back story on this show. First of all "Dumt og Farligt" is Danish for stupid and dangerous. And in the show the two hosts basically tries a lot of the stuff that warning labels or just common sense warns you against doing. And then they film it. For example throwing a brick into a washing machine during centrifugation makes it jump wildly. The hosts are a comedian and a well-known stuntman.
By the way here in Denmark we don't have quite as many warning labels as you do in the states. So when they are there, they are there for a reason... It might be a bit jack-ass-like in its content. But there's none of the self hurting stuff... Just a lot of blowing stuff up, wrecking some rooms and really making a mess of things. And there is actually a great deal of safety precautions involved.
