Comment Video is super tiny (160x120). I don't have a feel for how high-res the rest of our videos are, but it strikes me that there must be a better copy of this around somewhere. Obviously you can still see the gist of what goes on, but I'm not sure that's enough for FP. Calliopejen1 (talk) 23:27, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support if the caption is changed to say 'disintegration' - there was no explosion. --Golbez (talk) 00:12, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
