2023-09-13 02:02:18 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

This video has existed since 2010 and is claimed to depict a ball going 150mph into a steel plate at 70,000fps Real footage at those parameters look very different (not nearly as much distortion). This footage is likely a foam ball. https://www.metabunk.org/threads/150mph-golf-ball-at-70-000-fps-foam-ball.8277/
