Launching a Trebuchet Straight UP

It's difficult to visualise the potential energy when a heavy object is raised, so this is a demonstration of how the transfer of energy can be used to launch smaller object high into the air!

The high speed (slow mo) shots were filmed with a Chronos 1.4, which I recently purchased (not sponsored, just a great camera!). More info can be found here: https://www.krontech.ca/store/Chronos...
