I'm getting all sorts of alarms in my head for their decision to engage the target car on the driver side

@marshollygarden8693 2 місяці тому

That was crazy to see!! Was anxious the whole time. Seems like a rare, unnecessary risk from the team.

@TheTyisawesome 2 місяці тому

Exactly why they switched sides for Jamie's final tire ripper

@renchesandsords 2 місяці тому

@@TheTyisawesome I get that, but why subject Adam to the risk for the first two? they were both long enough to potentially really mess up his legs

@TheTyisawesome 2 місяці тому

@@renchesandsords I think it's just the "Let's do it" attitude of the science testing. Ever time I re-watch these back it really seems like there is alot of just doing without thoroughly thinking safety in order to get shit done for the episode ASAP. Kinda jus disregard safety until something goes wrong. I get it's entertaining but they have multiple incidents every season...

Years later in hindsight don't you think you should put the weapons on the left hand (the driver's side) away from the Adam 😳 Their safety crew then was a bit dumb back then

Fun fact about wheel spikes: Those originated in the gladiator shows of ancient Rome. 1 on 1 combat was not the only attraction there, but there were also races with weaponized chariots.

@flykintoun Місяць тому

Persians, used them on war chariots in 401 BCE, about 150 years before gladiator games became a thing about 250 years before the games hit their peak spectacle

I love how Adam was immidiately biased against the statonary gun, despite early fighter planes with the same principle having very much proved that concept for a couple of decades.

@S3IIL3CT 2 місяці тому

planes can tilt vertically easier than cars though

@Halfzipp 2 місяці тому

Actually, all fighter planes have fixed machine guns. Some notable ones, the P-51 Mustang, the A-10 Warthog.. Attempts were made in the past to make an aimable gun, but none were successful. It actually blows my mind that these guys didnt think about that. I thought these guys were geniuses when I was younger. Not so much anymore.

@leoarc1061 2 місяці тому

@@S3IIL3CT Yes, planes can tilt vertically (or, to be correct, pitch) because they have to. The cars are travelling on the same plane (the X plane, yaw plane, road plane), therefore, as demonstrated there's very little need to and enough control for pitch changes.

Why do patrol boats have non fixed guns? Or ships in general? Why are MGs non fixed on tanks etc.? Your comparison is crap.

@mrdan2898 Місяць тому

They should NOT have been tearing up the car on the drivers side! Safety first!! I'm surprised they did not take more precautions. Although I loved this episode, Keep them coming.

@justincase3230 День тому

Probably shoulda put that spike into the side that adam wasn't on. Bet Jayme thought of that and was like "eh, I've already put a bolt on halfway, he'll be fine 🤷"

@salvadorsempere1701 2 місяці тому

Any WW1 or WW2 fighter pilot would say to Adams that there are nothing wrong with a fixed firing machine gun

Wild. Remember seeing this episode on TV back when it was new. The weird thing is that I remember the wheel spike myth going very differently. I guess my memory isn't as reliable as I like to believe.

Spinning Bullet seems to have less kinetic energy in myth. Possible explanation: Lower muzzle speed. Ways to achieve: Maybe a shot with low amount of explosive?

@AdeptusCaeiusIII 2 місяці тому

Could absolutely improve the spin. Seeing how they did it sounds like it takes a lot of factors to get it to work, but... Yeah.

Paintball guns move a lot slower than a real bullet gun, making it more difficult to hit.

@callumw5396 2 місяці тому

Could they have reloaded their own ammo and just made it a lighter powder load so that it doesnt have the same impact force? Might make it spin if its not inbedding into the ice.

@derGameplayDJ 2 місяці тому

Of course they could've done that, but what would be the point? The whole reason for trying it themselves is to prove whether or not the video is fake. And they used unaltered ammo...

@TheTyisawesome 2 місяці тому

Why tf are they using shovels lol the ice is definitely thick enough for a skid steer or literally anything with a plow or bucket on it haha damn budget cuts

@d4slaimless Місяць тому

They were talking about the snow being 3 feet deep on the lake and 6 feet deep near the house or something. I am not sure a vehicle could have easily made it to the lake.
