I wanna see one shot on the side or the back ! The companies and thieves always focus on the door, when MOST of the time, the side or rear is the weakest/easiest point to breach. I learned something SUPER scientific, your guys chemistry is electric and amazing. The laughter you guys had, that's true friendship. I think the most I get out of this channel is exactly that, friendship. I have friends myself, that I am attached too, for almost 40+ years. I actually live with one, I call him my little brother. What I am getting at, is the camaraderie that you two share. It seems like thats super rare these days. Even as I was growing up, it's super rare. Everytime I see one of these "uncontrollable laughter moments" it brings back memories of my friends and I doing that as well. Just be careful ! Much love and respect to you guys!
I love how you say, "You have to be careful with this. You don't want any electricity or friction." And then as you start lowering the ball into the canon, we can hear the grittiness and scraping as it drags down the sides.😅👍
Nothing beats the oxogen bottle in the safe. That probably one of the best episodes I’ve even seen. I fell of the back of my chair laughing although I knew what was going to happen because 3000 psi is shit ton of pressure like hydraulics in back hoe excavators type pressures.
Not only that, pure oxygen makes literally everything flammable. I can't even imagine the internal heat and pressures inside that safe, guaranteed well over 3000 psi
As a machinist who use to design, repair, and assemble those hydraulic cylinders..... I can tell you that pressure isn't quite the same. In paper and in theory it is, but in reality it is quite different. Mainly because of the compression of the oil is completely different than the oxygen ( in it's gas state, almost liquefied ). The hydraulic cylinder is a cell fill/empty type of system. So basically two sides are under compression, but only 50% of it's density/strength is being used. The oxygen on the other hand. Fully compressed, almost allowing it to reach it's secondary state. 100% compressed. Single cell system. The Hydraulic cylinders secondary compression systems ( hoses, etc. ) would give out before full explosion and make a giant mess. It would only contort form initial contact of the projectile. The oxygen? Also HIGHLY flammable ( most hydraulic fluid is inert, but under extreme pressure can be scorching/boiling hot itself ) and no give, beside the WELDED on cap valve....
Love your videos, nothing fancy, no big setup, but the entertainment value is off the charts. Love the bowling ball canon!! Keep it up, cheers from your northern neighbour. 🇨🇦
Man that bowling ball cannon is nuts! Imagine if the barrel was twice as long and mounted on a solid fixture. You could probably knock that safe the length of a football field.😮👍
Those are very useful skills but, especially like the tools you get! You guys are great!!! watching you guys is hilarious and knowledgeable as well. That science is awesome, proud to be part of the class.
Fun video, as for the level of destruction I'd say it was good while the one with the oxygen tank was absolutely awesome. Funny thing is that Edwin speaks pretty darn good mexican Spanish, Gasparin taught him all the right words, lol.
This is a fraudulent message. You did not win anything. This is someone trying to rip you off. Don't respond to that message. This is not Edwin contacting you!
If he would have added a small amount of acetylene and shot it with that fifty cal. they would have been picking up parts for two weeks and had one hell of a fire ball...lol
Just watching the slow motion makes you laugh then hearing you two crack up is hilarious... ya'll are crazy but that was cool as hell.... I want a bowling ball cannon for sure....!!!
We have a bowling ball mortar we shoot at my gun club . 100 bucks for the kid that brings the ball back ! We have a hole drilled in it with a 3 foot rope so they can find it and help pull it out ! 900 yards + paper towels and vasoline is what we use to seal it !
Bowling ball cannon is the most ridiculously hilarious, and awesome thing ever. I still die laughing watching the video where you set it up inside your "Grandmas" car and give it a new sunroof.
Dude, the episode with the oxygen tank in the safe had me cracking up so much! That was one of my most favorite one from Edwin. I love how far they push it "safely" hahaha!
The circle on the bowling ball is where it hit the safe door and stopped so fast the plastic outside layer kept going. The center stayed in place as it was making its way through the door and the pressure held it in place. Just imagine how fast the ball had to slow down to pull that ring of plastic out. and the ball still had enough energy to flip the safe twice in the air.
This is why I love this channel because you do crap that most of us guys would have to try and most channels stop doing the more crazy stuff once they get so big so please never stop doing this stuff my guy. Go all out and balls to the wall no sissy sh!t 👍
Please, please for the love God never change! Don't change the laughs, don't change the cool ideas, and don't change the camera work especially, it feels real and I love it
Imagine the damage if you could find some way to brace the cannon to ground better when shooting at something to prevent the loss of energy from the cannon flying back. Incredible power to flip a heavy assed safe like that when people can't even lift it.
Great 👍🏼 stuff you guys always put a smile on my face with the crazy shot you’ll do. I remember that thing fired that ball over the mountain well big hill it went high . Anyway thumbs up fellas
Watching the safe flying reminds me of what was said about the F4 Phantom. “ The F4 is America’s proof to the world that you can make a brick fly if you give it enough horsepower”.
New subscriber here I really enjoy the different experiments and I learned that the inertia from that cannon even if using a soft material ie. "Bowling ball" that it can penetrate steel like it's made of butter awesome channel love the content thanks for letting us join you in these adventures!!
13:35. I think this is a weight block, all bowling balls have this feature at their core. The main purpose of this is to give the bowling ball a non-uniform weight distribution, meaning that the bowling ball will have a greater moment of inertia along one axis of rotation. This is used professionally to increase the rotational energy and consequently the overall kinetic energy of the bowling ball, meaning more pins are knocked down. It could also be caused by the fact that the centre is under some amount of compressive stress and when the outer layers of the bowling ball are placed under radial tensile stress caused by the impact, this creates a rippling effect - the ball bulges around the point of contact because the compressive stress is greatest toward the centre of the bowling ball and therefore resists compression the most in that particular region.
Sink that cannon in the ground and double up your powder. Measure the distance to the impact site. Fire another shot using a single powder charge. Measure that distance and center a big bullseye target. Then you can play around with weights and measures using science and math and decide which types of bowling balls fly better than others.
Edwin, you should use a tshirt or pillow case for wadding around the bowling ball it would get even more power with a tighter shield. or even foam sabot would be good.
Science with BIG BOOM, always fun to watch... Keep it sketchy but still safe... A quick side note, You will find that those gun safe doors weigh more than the rest if the safe itself. To break in to one, cut through the back.
“There is one fatal flaw in the design: If you’ve shooting a bowling ball at it, you’ll have access to the stuff inside the safe. Now lock it again, to show you…”
As a kid in 7th and 8th grade middle school, me and my best friend Chris used to hang out in the woods behind the middle every Friday. There were a lot of trails and trees. We took off most Friday afternoons. We would go home for lunch, have a cookout on the gas grill and disappear. (Parent’s worked). We figured out that the only roll call was at the beginning of the second class every school day. No one missed us. For awhile, we tried to make cannons with match heads and other flammables. The most that we ever produced were like the first try here: flames shooting out the front. We never figured out how to control the compression, but the small flame-producing cannons were a lot of fun- especially for an 11 year old. Best years of my life… we built forts and other things, and we never hurt anyone or destroyed anything that wasn’t ours.
Can you put fins on an oxygen tank like a rocket and knock off the nozzle and see how far it would go? Or launch it out of a pipe like a cannon. Itd be so cool to watch it fly off
My step father had a welding tank fall over in the shop before I got to work one morning. It knocked the nozzle off and it shot thru 8" cinder block, over 4 parking places and embedded in the bank on the other side of the small 5' wide creek.
I'm still asking to see what it would look like if you put a bottle of acetylene in a safe and shoot it with a armour piercing incendiary round!!!!! Please, please,please!!!!!
I used to load Airshow pyrotechnics in tubes like that and one thing I will never forget is being screamed at for leaving over the tube (being directly over the opening) and wearing clothes that could spark (static) and not grounding the tube. You’re doing all of that and more, you’re in so much trouble with the authorities of pyro.
You guys are GREAT!!!!!!! Absolutely love your channel. The safe blow up video had me laughing for days, I think I watched it more than I should have hahahaha😂😂😂😂
How about drilling a shallow hole in a bowling ball just big enough for an Apple tracker chip? Then you can track the cannon shot to find the landing spot. The chip could die from the launch blast and it could die from the impact on landing. Either way the video would be interesting.
I'd just shoot to a very large open space, exactly where their at. Have someone near landing zone under cover, should be able to locate relatively easy.
👍If you've noticed where the bowling ball received the pressure from the ignition source, the only real damage occurs where the pressure is released around the edge of the ball and the center is left pretty much intact. That would be the best place to put it, epoxy it right in.
@@SSMenace49 Have you watched the previous video on this channel where it was impossible to follow the ball? Without knowing where it's going to land how do you think you could place a person near the landing zone? Look through the channels videos and watch the previous distance shot, it's entertaining.
@@banditeastlick2471 I agree that glueing it away from the ignition source is a good idea for launch but with a round projectile and no rifling, it's likely that ball will rotate during it's travel making the impact side of the ball unpredictable. The main force in play to possibly kill a GPS Apple tracker chip is G forces during launch and again upon landing. Two or three chips implanted around the circumference of the ball away from the powder burn exposed side would increase the odds of at least one of the trackers surviving the landing impact. Two other real world problems exist. One is speed. I don't know if the GPS system can calculate fast enough to track a projectile. The other problem is the possibility of the ball being buried too deep after impact to get a fix on the location. The Tracker tags from Apple are not too expensive so it's worth giving it a try.
Joder... lo mejor es la risa nerviosa. Sois la ostia. 2 locos de diferentes partes del mundo haciendo reír la gente. Pero bueno para eso estamos aquí. Saludos de España
Between dosing the powder by pouring it, standing in front of it and lighting it up close instead of remotely, this is truly a masterpiece of rarted internet content. Thanks for providing us with these lols.
Having an ad placement in the middle of his ad placement blew my mind. For this reason, I will enrol in Sonoran Desert Institute AND go out and buy Tropicana. We’re all winners today.
