Title: "Sport Science" is the most awesome show ever
Post by: J.J. Blair on January 31, 2008, 06:30:22 PM

They want to see if it's possible to send somebody into shock with a shot to the nuts, so they found some "amateur daredevil," who, for $50, would let them measure his heart rate as they use a tennis ball machine to hit him in the gonads at 50 mph (68 lbs. of force).  Ultimately, they want to  know if getting hit in the balls will make his heart rate exceed 180 bpm.  The slow motion shot is AWESOME.  Talk about "must see TV."

The result?  182 bpm.

Now you know.  Need a cardio workout?  Have somebody kick you in the balls.

I'd rather go skiing / snowboarding.  But thanks for the suggestion.
