> come to the wrong conclusion How do you know which verdict is wrong or right in order to say that though? You can say that slow motion makes people convict more, or convict less, or whatever, but unless you have an oracle to tell you which was the correct verdict in each case, and we don't, this data tells us nothing. Maybe people are systematically underestimating violence when they don't get to see it in slow mot…
Good point. But in sports, slow motion is often enlightening. After a tackle, we see a soccer player collapse to the ground, writhing in agony, clutching their shin. But then slow mo shows that the other player never even made contact with them, its a classic "dive". In that case, there's no doubt that the slow mo version is more informative.
Re: Slow-motion replays can distort criminal responsibility
#71You need a replay for that, but you rarely need slow motion for that.
