Painting Mona Lisa In .008 Seconds – Watch more free videos
These video clips look like they’re from a live Mythbusters performance. The clip shows two machines they’ve built to paint using paintballs. The first one is a bit of a joke – it definitely doesn’t come close to producing the Mona Lisa. The second machine – “GPU” – has massive compressed air tanks, more than a mile of hose and 1100 fixed barrels each loaded with a single colored paintball. La Jaconde has been painstaking reproduced by scores of artists over the years. The Mythbusters use their incredible machine to reproduce the Smiling Lady in .008 seconds. [Break.com]
