Liquor Sponsor For Cannon Firing In Slow Motion

The Slow Mo Guys do it:

Captain Morgan supplied the alcohol and the cannon.  First Richard Ryan gets a liquor sponsor, now Slow Mo Guys?  ENDO seriously needs one.  I mentioned I was interested in LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy) sponsorship, and commenter derpmaster said:

LVMH? I know that you are all into fashion and whatnot but I think you are setting your sights a little high. Given the readership of this site, I’m thinking more along the lines of Franzia/Keystone Lite/Luxco.

HOW RUDE! :P  ahhahaha.

Come-And-Take-ItThe drinks themselves getting smashed was a bit anticlimactic… seeing that cannon ball fly through the air was awesome though.

Thoughts?  Do you consider these sponsored vids “selling out”?

  1. That was the most anemic, underpowered, cannon loading I’ve ever seen. Given the thin barrel and overall shape of the cannon, I suspect it would explode if you tried to fire it in earnest.

    Did you notice the almost total lack of recoil, and that the glassware absorbed so much of the ball’s velocity that it dipped noticeably in the frame before it hit the berm?
