Sky News broadcast footage of Pistorius firing a shotgun and using a pistol to shoot a watermelon, which bursts on impact. Delighted screams and laughter from unidentified people are heard in the background.
Sky News also broadcast audio of a man it says "sounds very much" like Pistorius who comments on the shattered watermelon.
"It's a lot softer than brain but... it's like a zombie stopper," the man said.
The video of Pistorius shows him wearing sunglasses and gun range headphones. Francois Hougaard, a South African international rugby player, is also seen shooting alongside Pistorius in the video. Sky News did not say exactly when the video was taken, or where.
Nel was cross-examining Pistorius.
He asked the athlete what a "zombie stopper" was and if he had been in the presence of someone using the term.
Pistorius said he could not remember knowing the term or being in the presence of someone who used the term.
Nel then asked if he would be surprised if there was a video on a international news channel on which the term was used.
Pistorius said yes. Nel said he would show Pistorius the video.
However, Barry Roux, SC for Pistorius, objected and said it was an ambush.
Nel said the defence had presented lengthy character evidence and the State did not investigate character evidence.
Nel said Pistorius asked him to "please" show him the video.
"This witness indicated that he wanted to see the video," Nel said.
