 Current IAU World 30m Champion SIMON BEYELER has put the German writer Friedrich Schiller's tale of William Tell's legendary "apple-shot" to the test on Swiss TV.
Appearing on channel SF1's Einstein programme on June 25, the accuracy of a replica 13th Century crossbow was tested against Simon's world championships winning Winzeler '313' match-crossbow - shooting at an apple from a distance of 80 paces (58 meters).
The Tell Experiment can be watched on the internet at www.einstein.sf.tv (go to Archive from 25.06.09)
