      Never had a Malteser in Hand but it looks as if they are about 1 / 1,5cm in diameter which would mean you are telling the policemen you where going 500 / 750 cm/s = 5 / 7,5 m/s = 18 / 25,2 km/h = 11,2 / 15,7 mph (for the americans)

We have different size options depending on how many you need, like if you're having a party, the bucket is good option. So we have more options at better prices.

    Most passenger planes do approximately 850 feet per second. So if the malteser did 900 feet per second, then it actually might well be the worlds fastest ever! I am genuinely amazed at how much damage it did! I half expected the malterser to just turn to mush under the initial pressure.

    Shutterspeed = 1/3000 s
    => velocity [m/s] = 0.1 m / 333 µs = 100'000 m / 333 s = 300 m/s
