Since the speed of sound is so low, I would not be surprised if you could find a video demonstrating this, but am not in a position to search right now. | |

Does this mean that someone watching through a telescope from a long way away would see the ends snap, then the ends start to drop, then the middle drop later on? Or if rigid enough, the ends snap and then a pause before it fell at all, seemingly levitating? | |
