spaghetti snapped at 420 fps with Casio EX-FH20 High Speed Camera

Snap spaghetti and it almost always breaks in 2 places so the central piece spins off. How fast does it spin? This was taken at 420 fps then slowed to show the individual frames. It takes 8 frames to turn a single full revolution so it’s spinning at around 50 revolutions per second = 3000 rpm, which is over 6 times faster than a helicopter rotor blades.
