Sound is used to drive a wineglass into resonance behavior. In the first clip we see in 600 fps a glass vibrating at its fundamental frequency, with a small strip of paper bouncing up and down as it straddles the lip of the glass. The next two clips show us breaking a (different) glass, first showing the break in 30 fps and then in 600 fps, with the sound from the 30 fps footage slowed down for added drama.
