WW2 planes had guns that shot through the propeller. But if I’m remembering correctly, the propeller was connected to the gun in some way, where if you held down the trigger, the gun would only fire at certain intervals based off of where the propeller was in its rotation.

[@spudz7405]

Certain planes in ww2 had them yes but it was more common In ww1 and if I remember right the Germans made a firing interrupter for when the prop was in the way of the gun and the French had a guy try putting metal on the back of the prop he died

[@IvGorin]

That's exactly how it worked. That mechanism gave birth to the fighter planes as we know them.

That was a very propelling pun

[@ecthelion83]

This dilemma was encountered in WWI when machine guns were first attached to airplanes. The propellers were shot off, which is why a synchronization/interrupter mechanism (which would temporarily prevent a gun from firing when a propeller blade was in front of the barrel) was developed for aircraft firearms for WWII combat aircraft (or in some cases such as some German fighters, a cannon barrel came out through the shaft of the propeller). It is a well-known historical fact that airplane-mounted firearms shot off/destroyed propellers. That said, airplane gun calibers were much more substantial than .223 or .308, and fired at a much higher rate of fire.

[@elementalist1984]

Some of the earlier ones were closer to 308 in caliber. I'd have to Google it though

[@alexturnbackthearmy1907]

Or you can do it another way which existed at the same time as synchroniser - just make prop bulletproof. Yeah, it will still sustain damage and a whole bunch of bullets are being wasted, but if you have literally nothing else...

I remember when I was a kid my grandpa would tell me stories about how when he was in the Soviet Army part of his job was timing the guns behind the propeller to fire in between the rotations. Wish I asked him more questions about that stuff while he was still alive, like if that was during WWII or after (born 1926, so would have been 18/19 at the end of the war), and if he ever actually flew them or if he was just in charge of mechanical. Passed away in 2015 and his mind was gone for about a decade before that already. Don't take your grandparents for granted, ask them as much about their lives while you can.

[@matthewuzulis5016]

There are 2 things I will caution about, both of which will happen during one single event. In the case of shooting enough holes in one of the propellers it is highly likely the tip will snap off shooting it off in a random direction, danger in just about any direction as it can ricochet off or even be sent up and fall down in a unknown area. Next thing to worry about after that happens is the van, you now have a unbalanced blade spinning at speed, this can lead to it rocking the van off of the blocks, the fan deflecting and spinning itself apart spewing more shrapnel. Best case the intact propeller deflects and gets stuck cutting into the van without throwing around additional shrapnel. Video is very entertaining, I just don't want to see any one get seriously hurt.

[@treasureplanet9082]

Yep, great minds. I just wrote essentially the same thing.

If the van has an open differential in the rear axle, you can lock the brake on one side, and the other side will spin at twice the RPM. That could help it shift gears and spin stupid fast!

[@davidmead9861]

Hey, mechanic here, it's got an open diff so if you pinch off the propeller brake line and apply the brakes it will hold the wheel in place and send all of the power to the propeller, caution: may wreck the diff, may also spin the propeller fast enough where it Flys off

This was actually a thing with prop planes when they decided to mount guns on them. Safety was not as much a concern during early engineering process and planes went down because they were shooting their own props off. In order to make guns on planes work, they had to build systems into the guns that timed the shots so they passed between the prop blades as they spun.

@DemolitionRanch The van probably has an open differential, which would explain the speed changing randomly, as the power transfers between each side. You could get precise control with a limited, or preferably, locked differential. Made better with a manual transmission. It would be a constant speed based on gear and RPM. You know, for the extra scientific results. Loving these ideas.

[@taistotrannum120]

I am shocked how many people believe a pistol bullet is going to go through a windshield which is reinforced with a layer of plastic in it. If you're shooting from a distance and you're trying to hit something directly behind the glass then you'll hit it. But when it's a foot away from the muzzle of your gun and the glass is at an angle as windshields are then it's going to deflect it millimeters and down range that's going to be actual meters. I have shot through glass before and no it doesn't go straight through when you're too close to it.

[@3870TheDad]

In WWI. the idea of shooting forward through the blades of the propeller for the airplane became a problem. The fixed the problem with a synchronizer so that the gun would shoot between the blades, not physically through the blades.

[@xfrobie9773]

Don't forget the other solution people came up with, where they literally just put armor steel plates on the prop so that the bullets would ricochet in random directions and hopefully not back at the pilot or anything structurally important on the plane.

[@6P3-MK4]

I'm pretty sure machine guns on airplanes run a cam off the crank, so that would time the machine gun to make hitting the prop almost impossible.

It wasn’t until he landed that he realized there was a new scratch on his engine cowling and the blade deformation. Never thought I’d see something like that.

Fun fact: the "machine gun" mounted on a WWI biplane was actually semi automatic and used a trigger rod actuated by the engine's cam shaft to pull the trigger once for every second revolution (so the gun's rpm was directly tied to half the engine's rpm) to prevent pilots from accidentally shooting their own propellers. The trigger the pilot used simply engaged a linkage connecting the engine to the gun. This design (or something similar) was used on all fighter planes untill the guns got moved to the wings of the plane and could clear the propeller.

Matt, you should invent a mechanism that allows fighter planes to fire their machine guns through their propellers without hitting them. You would be immortalized in the history books.

[@chaseemock322]

Already a thing bud

[@arseniyistomin1894]

Some quick math. In order to stop every bullet, a propeller should rotate fast enough to encounter with it as bullet pass through. Taking a length of a bullet ~ 2 cm and a speed ~ 800 m/s we get 25 mks for propeller to hit the bullet. So its angular velocity must be around 1/25mks =40 000 rotations per second (20 000 assuming it has 2 wings), which gives more than a million rotations per minute.

When they first started mounting machine guns on aircraft in WW1, they were mounted outside the arc of the propeller, usually on top of the upper wing. Anthony Fokker developed the interrupter gear that stopped the gun from firing when the propeller was in the path of the bullet. He mounted it on the Eindecker monoplane and made history with it.

[@1985FieroGT]

For the van for next time, find the parking brake cables, pull the parking brake as hard as possible, then clamp the drivers side cable so it stays engages, maybe with vise grips, then release the parking brake. This will keep the drivers side from taking most of the speed, and make sure all rotation goes through the prop, which will make it spin twice as fast. Then you have no brake smoke, etc.

[@randyscj429]

[@markell1757]

I really dislike that now that he has a ton of money he doesn’t care as much about this channel anymore the videos are short as in actual content he skips calibers like I do punctuation videos just simply suck now

[@JVScustoms]

I agree! I’ve been watching demo ranch for years and the old videos were so much better. I hate to say but I enjoy when the KZbin channels are small, like they are hungry and care about content. Don’t get me wrong I’m glad Matt has made it and all but it’s just not like it used to be

[@timmy9428]

Or maybe he's so busy with the resort that he has no extra time, but he cares so much about this channel that he still squeezes in just enough time to shoot one

[@Sneakdisscommentbelow]

That's anyone's objective, this is fun for him, not a chore, go do yours

[@markell1757]

@Sneakdisscommentbelow it's not fun for him you can see it. He doesn't seem into anymore. As someone else said he's to worried about the resort.👌🖕

[@Gambler1-1]

The propeller is on backwards. it is supposed to spin clockwise. That is the reason why the propeller is acting like a fan and blowing air. On prop planes the propeller takes a bite out of the air hence why the airplane goes forward. The propeller pulls the airplane forward. Which also sends air through the engine cowling cooling of the engine aswell.

[@jungplanga]

Hey Matt, if you really want it spinning fast, take the front clip off the van and mount it directly on the front main engine pulley. Good luck 👍

[@ferdsan9025]

Thanks for watchin do it for dale we’ll freakin see ya later

[@jacbojenkins]

im so glad palmetto state armory is getting the attention they deserve

[@StormZster]

He threw carrots at the camera! 😂

[@anthonyanglim7147]

Don't let them get you down Matt, with the negative comments. Just keep doin what you love man! That's what will always have the best result! I Always Love your show man, Especially when you get together with 'the boys'. Peace and Love brother!

[@GuccieSk8ter]

I’ve always wanted myth busters to test a bullet vs a moving car tire to see if the bullet could get caught by the rim spinning 🔥 thank you for this😩🙏

[@jacobparker-ie6kt]

Handburger was a good laugh

[@_dreko]

"what could possibly go wrong?" "This episode is sponsored by simply safe!!!"

[@robertdenigris7232]

Props to you Matt for creating great new material.

[@erikcrouch7881]

Ha! Nice pun.

[@SpetsnazBear-3710]

Now THAT was FUN!!! Had me howling, "3, 2, 1, CONTACT!"

[@user-xk9xq3uo6e]

An experience by a friend, with a 44 magnum hunting coyotes from an old Luscombe Silvair, The bullet will go through the propeller, as if the propeller was not moving; the vibration made him land at the nearest airport. You need the prop running about 2400 RPM.

[@robmorgan1214]

I love this channel. No one has dumber ideas than mat! Looking at you mr indoor living room steel target range... another banger. Keep making em and we'll keep watching em.

[@Vegas61rus]

- Where did you get this SCAR? - It's not a SCAR, it's a SCRATCH

[@KaeYoss]

SCAR-H?

[@Roset595]

Amazing! As an aircraft mechanic who works on props, I've always wanted to see lots of different things thrown into them, like whole chickens, watermelons, wood planks, etc. Looking forward to some destruction next time!!

[@trevynlane8094]

Some WW1 planes fired their guns through the prop. Half the time, the gun was linked to a mechanism that would disable the gun if the prop was in front of it. The other half of the time, the prop was reinforced to take the shots.

[@kennethwilson7315]

Get out the welder. If you want the propeller to spin at Mach fuck, weld the axel/hub assembly on the opposite side so it can’t turn. This will make the propeller spin twice as fast as if you opened the diff and welded the spider gears. I’d suggest only a minimal tack weld. If the van comes off its perch for any reason, you’re going to want the tack weld to break so that the hub without the prop will start turning and the prop will lose power when it digs into the ground. I’m also going to highly recommend overhead cover. I’m not sure if your brand is familiar with bunkers, but that’s what you’re going to want to be in if a tip breaks off the prop and flies into the sky with the potential of coming down on you. I wouldn’t worry too much about the C-clip retention that differential (likely) uses though. The prop is pushing the axel into the vehicle. If you decide to turn the prop the other way though, do NOT stand in front of it at any point. Under those conditions, WHEN the C-clip fails, the prop is going to pull the axle straight out of the housing. That prop can pull an aircraft through the air. Imagine if the only weight it had to move were the axle. The axle coming out of the tube would act briefly as a guide before the death blades cause mayhem. Keep the prop directed so that it pushes the axle into the housing. Have a smart plan for being stupid.

[@Sk6ps]

The fact that i grew up watching this man and he still is as popular as when i was younger is crazy

[@Kragatar]

This needs a collab with the Slow Mo Guys so we can see the bullets passing by the propeller.
