    What the Smith says about the hammer I can verify. I was once using a hammer with a cold chisel. The handle was slightly mushroomed from years of use. One piece shot off and buried itself in my arm. That stuff can fly off pretty fast

      My dad was a metal worker, and he used to warn me not to hit hammer on hammer, for they are surface hardened. Later, i saw a coworker hitting a hammer to open some crate manytimes..i warned him and he looked at me like," Mind your business boy". And kept hitting untill he was lkke struck by lightning and a hole of about a centimeter x a half opened up his bicep he digarded it but had to go to hospital and had a shard removed near his shoulder..hence hitting it many times apparently causes the hardened surface to crack and then next possibly pieces could be propelled at high velocity

    Not sure what lips were supposed to do. The trombone itself isn't a particularly great pressure bearing system but that's not a problem, the Wehrmacht issued cardboard Panzerschrek and Panzerfaust at the end of the war, the tube is simply a guide, it's Newton's 3rd law which launches the projectile, not pressure differentials.

    • @DjDolHaus86
      @DjDolHaus86 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      The panzerschrek/faust are basically recoiless rifles or, in more simplified terms, rocket launchers. They fire a self propelled projectile and therefore the launcher doesn't need to be a pressure vessel because the launch isn't as a result of expanding gasses within a confined space. The trombone in the experiment is being used as a crude cannon where an expansion of gasses within a confined space forces a projectile out of the end of the vessel. By increasing the confinement of the pressure vessel (sealing one end of the trombone with lips) you force more of the expanding gasses to go out the desired end resulting in a greater projectile velocity. Think of it sort of like an exaggerated gas port on a semi automatic rifle, if the port is too big and too much gas is allowed to escape rather than pushing the bullet down the barrel then the speed of projectile will drop

      @@ao1778 It's common practice for tiny pieces of shrapnel. I've known a bunch of military vets with bits of steel shrapnel stuck deep in various bits of the body, some including the head and torso, but there were a lot with pieces in their arms or legs.
      In all those cases....it's just not worth the risk to operate. Shrapnel is usually inert and sterile, and it's _very unlikely_ to cause an infection if the wound is cleaned, so it's way more dangerous to go digging around in a body cavity or organ where you could potentially snip a vessel or hit something else vital. So standard practice for tiny shards of metal is just to leave em in there, because surgery is almost always the riskier option. The body heals and scars around them and they just about always stop moving and don't cause any problems. We used to leave bullets in the body too, till we learned about how poisonous lead is.
      The exceptions are, of course, if the shrapnel is large or sharp, etc. Then it's surgery time.

    I don't think they tested the hammer thing enough i don't know if it gets addressed later.
    But if they had tools with cracks and didn't notice.. and kept using over and over its possible.
    Really sad they didn't keep reseting the test for at least 10 attempts after the cracks and see what (at human power) may have happened, one of the few times i think.. more testing still needed.

    My beef with the sniper rifle experiments... They never tested it with shock meters on the MVA sniper's head. I'm 100% certain that any one of the shots that was tested in the original and revisit episodes would have killed the sniper just due to the impact of the scope with the eye socket (likely liquifying the sniper's brain inside of the skull, even if there was no external injuries).

    • @designator7402
      @designator7402 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +17

      I can only speak to this mathematically. Assume we're using 12.96 Lapua Magnum at 100 meters. According to the function I found online, you'd be talking about 1.3-1.4 Gs of impact. Now, 1.3 Gs of impact focused on a single point: That'll kill you. Spread across the area of a scope? Unlikely. MAYBE it would give you a concussion. (concussions happen from 90-120 Gs of inertial trauma) You certainly wouldn't feel great. But "liquify the brain"? No, not even remotely.
      Edit: Yes, it would cut up your face something horrible, but I think that's self-evident.

    They still got the trombone experiment wrong in my opinion. They should have tested the pressure exerted on the mouthpiece when playing the instrument and used some analog that could replicate that. Playing the instrument would result in a perfect seal and the force would be greater than taping the ballistic face to the mouthpiece. It may not have made a difference, but it may have been just enough back force to cause the slide to shoot off.

      No they don't. They leave people with actual functioning brains, who can fill in the blanks and understand the point of the experiments, as well as casual viewers who don't care and just want to see interesting nuts, bolts and explosions, all entertained.
      They leave people who have spent too long not seeing the sun, overly pedantic for the sake of sounding clever, and obsessed with irrelevant details, seething through and through. Not because the Mythbusters did anything wrong, but because it makes them feel better about themselves that they are "smarter" or more "expert" than them.
