Someone shot the F-22 Raptor Fighter Jet in slow motion with an UltraHD 4k camera and the results are pretty awesome.
Here’s the full video for your viewing pleasure. Check these bad boys out in slow-mo! The F-22 Raptor footage starts at the 7:51 mark, but the other planes are pretty awesome as well.
That’s pretty damn impressive when you see this incredible piece of machinery in action, let alone in ultra slow motion.
