    Now imagine being on a battlefield during the Napoleonic wars and having whole batteries of cannons firing high speed iron balls at you as you walk forward. This was a very good demonstration of why cannons make a mess of infantry formations.

    So for those wondering:
    400 mph is ~180 m/s. That's roughly how quickly a cannonball would be traveling mid-flight in the 18th and 19th centuries. The destruction is a good match for some period accounts too: There's a story of two French captains who hated each other. At the battle of Vellinghausen, a cannonball decapitated one man, and a piece of the skull put out the other captain's eye.
    So seeing all those pieces scattered so far, just gives a sense of the destruction a cannonball can do.

      ikr? the way the skull split in two and parts of it were actually launched in front of the ball just shows the amount of kinetic energy that transferred on that one. the way the flesh appears to liquify under the intense pressure of the bowling ball. marvelous. good stuff to study if you want to be a filmmaker. Just make the dummy as realistic as possible and get the cannon a bit further away and film it for your movie, practical effects are the greatest thing when it comes to organic looking stuff. cgi is overrated.
