Ping Pong Fission: High school class demonstrates power of the atom

Ping Pong Fission: High school class demonstrates power of the atom: "As many of you may know, we here at The Feed are total suckers for science, at least when it comes in the form of cool videos. So it should come as no surprise that I love this video showing how a nuclear chain fission reaction occurs using... wait for it... ping pong balls and rat traps! The actual reaction occurs at about 1:48 into the video."
