It could be interesting to see the force at which a snowball is thrown (If possible, may require a server, with 1 person throwing, 1 recording).
Just an idea

That's a good idea, but it would require knowing the mass of the player to measure it in Newtons.

That would actually be possible to do with only 1 person. You could use frame analysis and vf = vo + at. When the snowball gets to its highest point (possible to determine through frame analysis), vf = 0, t = the frame number at that point minus the frame number at release times 30, and a = 14.4622. Do some algebra and you've got it.
