Will this pull a car door off? 

Hands down the best part "SNATCH BLOCK" 😂

Same here! Had to rewatch the Destin part 5 times!

Y'all should get out more.

SNATCH BLOCK

@@MadScientist267 clearly your just not a fan.

thats a great idea, would love to see it :D

that's exactly what i was thinking

@@pirri223 same

damn i was going to say that.....

🐦

That's very helpful! Thank you.

Agreed

This dude really did just demolish his mom's car.

I was thinking that also. Why not get a junker to do this on?

Go hard or go home

@@franklinmills1756 The fact that they had to tow it in suggests that the car was a junker.

Maybe someone tried to drive it through deep water and it hydro locked and wrecked the electronics.

I know! Nuts!

It makes sense: car doors are designed to protect the occupants from side impacts, including vehicular impacts. It would be extremely dangerous for the occupants if the door separated from the unibody. In fact, the door when latched becomes a structural component of the chassis assembly. The latch and hinges prevent the door from being pushed too far into the cabin during a side impact, and also prevent the frame from separating (the door opening from spreading) during other impacts.

​@@haphazard1342 The structural support of the door is most notable in convertibles, especially soft tops. With most of the strength of the frame being a flat box, door fitment can become a significant factor in reducing frame flex in corners. (Only really noticeable if it's awful, though.)

I work in a vehicle assembly plant and you’d be surprised just how much thought and engineering is put behind the door’s points of contact with the rest of the vehicle. Luckily, I work on “door line” so I actually assembly the doors themselves. That bar that limits the door from opening too far (could also be called hyperextending) is called a “check link” and then you have your locking mechanism that interacts with the striker plater that’s bolted to the vehicle. A doors lock functions like a miniature Ferris wheel inside of the locks hollow housing. So instead of the lock being displaced by the striker plate and then going back into its original position (providing a restricting barrier that keeps the door from opening again) the lock actually has a second latch that just replaced the position of the initial one. Think of it as rotating into place. My assumption is that the original latch then goes into the housing and provides some sort of opposing force inside the houses where it latches into its own piece. Take all of this with a grain of salt (or many many grains) because I want taught any of this. I just learned it from assembly the doors. I don’t know what any of the lock housing looks like on the inside. I just now how it functions because we have to do a lock function check before the door is put onto the vehicle. There will probably be a large amount of typos, and idek if there’s a character limit to YT comments

@@TylerBellMakes in the movie it wasn't compressed air, it was Nas

Its not about being strong though. Did you watch the video? I really like that its actually all about finding the balance and how sensitive it is to get it to work in comparison to the movies where it just works 'out of the box'

You!

Not so sure, I think it would have been more interesting to either see a video of fixing the car that appeared to be in perfect condition except for a computer or engine problem. Or that splicing rope with what looked like a purpose built needle, we used to splice large rope but we had to jury rig a threader and had to guide it through with a smaller rope which was threaded with a smaller needle made of wire.

Don't deserve nothing...

Agreed

⚠️Jumpscare warning⚠️ *SNATCH-BLOCK*

Cut my thumb down to the bone with a router earlier this year trying to freehand putting smooth edges on a block of wood. Not a great day. Router bit grabbed the wood, threw it away from me and my thumb went straight to the bit. All of that just to plug a drain hole in my basement. lol

Yeah that was massive stupid. If you gonna be stupid, dont post it, others will emulate you and get really hurt

Just wanted to say that. Not the best safe place to stand

I mean 4:56.

The problem he's facing is the harpoon stop plate is not allowing any air past the harpoon, so the harpoon catches up to the rope inside the barrel. With steel cable as it's very soft compared to the harpoon, it would twist and bend around the harpoon and end up blocking it inside the barrel. The way to fix it is have the harpoon sticking out of the barrel.

A flexible rope is also less likely to cut you in half if it snaps

if you can afford to destroy such a nice car, your patreon is probably doing fine already

Thanks Ethan!

Thank you!!
