      That doesn't work cause you can't run an engine in reverse. If the transmission doesn't break then the engine will. But that won't happen cause the forward momentum of the car will easily overpower to grip of the clutch. The clutch plates will just bounce off each other as they did with the mythbusters or the drive train will snap. It's not the designed to take the force of a car at full speed.
      After all the force applied to the clutch and drive train is as if you were to try to go from a dead stop to full speed instantly which of course the car isn't powerful enough to do. It would just be excess weight to make the clutch and shaft 100 times stronger than the maximum power the engine can give.

    35:00 the tennisball trick used to work on older cars. Saw it done in school at a crime and safety event we went to to show us how easy it is to gain access to a vehicle. Think it only works on older locks from the 70s or 80s though.

    • @colonicus
      @colonicus 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @jordanknutson3244 I'm old, so it was when "keys" were actually "keys" that had to go in the lock and not just buttons on a remote. Maybe it was a trick, but it wasn't as simple as having a button to press at the same time in your pocket or by someone else.
      I've had a look since, and I think it only worked on a specific model of Volvos from the early 80s.
      Wasn't about making sure we locked our car. That trick and others they showed us were about getting in even though it's locked. It was pointing out that it's pretty easy to get into cars quickly, so you shouldn't leave anything in your car that can be seen. Plus, car windows break easy, so don't leave your wallet on the dashboard or something silly like that.

    Whilst not an effective ammo by themselves, cigarette butt's make excellent fletching. Fastest n cheapest option I've found. Can nail a phone book shut from 20ft. Cut half your butt into strips, fluff it up good. Poke ya nail through, and wrap with 1/8th" of PVC tape. Acts as a pretty good wadding, and stabilises the nails flight. Used on 1/2inch tacks under breath power (for reusability I'd suggest heatshrink) to 3 inch nails at 300-400psi (guage didn't read that high, it went around again, all the beans) n that embedded all the way through a phone book. A peice of hardwood took 12 strikes from a hammer to get the same type of nail about as deep. The previous plain PVC cone could just about get the nail to stick, no penetration. Cigarette butt's, definitely worth having if your expediting boomsticks from the hardware store. Just sayin

    Car lock myth was true as long as pneumatic central locks were in use. It simply can't work with electric actuators and it would work with pneumatic only if certain model was using vacuum to open and pressurizing to close so when pumping air into the lock you'd be actuating lock piston the correct way otherwise you'd need to suck air off the lock.

    • @SuperUltimateLP
      @SuperUltimateLP หลายเดือนก่อน

      This assumes that the lock is somehow connected to the pneumatic system and not actuating a valve... this also assumes that there are no leaks between the door and the covers on the inside, I find it really really unlikely that such a car existed ever..

    Well if you put the car into reverse while going forward you just rip the teeth right off the gear in the transmission. No Idea what happens in an automatic or dual clutch sequential transmission though but I reckon it's similar. If you find yourself in a runaway car for whatever reason your best chance of stopping would be, putting the car into neutral i.e. knocking it out of gear, this way the car can't accelerate anymore, and then you just joink the handbrake. That should stop the car even if the engine is at it's rev limit. Happened to my mom once in an old VW Bus when the spring underneath the gas pedal broke and would just go flat.

    A manual car can be stopped without the main foot break by dropping it into 1st gear and using the engine to slow the car to a speed where the hand break will stop it.

    Shifting into park stopped my 1st car.
    I had my hand on the shifter and I was fantasising flying and pushing the throttle forward subconsciously while driving at low speed. It made the sounds a gearbox would make if it could swear and the car kind of behaved like I had thrown the park/E brake on. Thankfully, I didn't do any damage, but the gearbox started playing up a few years later, so mabie
