A different view of spin-stabilized trajectory

When the video starts, it's going to seem like it has nothing to do with rifle shooting. But as it progresses, it will become apparent that a lot of the same concepts apply.

The video team is good at presenting things in a way that make it all very easy to visualize and understand.

With that intro, now it's time to enjoy some moments with a football celebrity, and a lot of science having to do with spin-stabilized projectiles.
