Confederate Army's Secret Weapon - MythBusters

[@wboumans]

love it how they go to the bombrange for little things and setoff the rocket in the shop lol

[@heetsees]

Whats weird is sometimes they shoot firearms in the shop and seacans locally like its no problem. Remember they were in a lock down California sh**h**e.

28:40 i think Jamie's business/budgeting mind kicked in there Kari

[@ThedownwardS]

at the beginning kari worked for free for a while (cannot tell you where i found that.....)

[@colinofay7237]

5:14 it's a shame the camera crew/editing team don't think them playing around with it is interesting enough to show us. I know it was originally meant for a tv audience, but a youtube audience would watch and enjoy it, in fact just a single myth could easily be a 5 hour series (5x1hour) They could re edit it and release those as episodes/series's, easily could turn one normal episode into 20 hours of content. I wish they'd do that 😞

[@Damaged7]

Well it was a TV show. It was meant to be watched once a week, not binge watched for 24 hours in a row like people do these days. People just consume mass amounts of "content" and the more people do it the more diluted it all becomes. You should want to watch 45 minute of something substantial over 20 hours of useless nothingness.

it's easy to build stuff if the plans are metric.

[@wboumans]

metric is the best

[@mbak7801]

@@wboumans Except you cannot divide by 3. In fact metric does not factorise well at all.

[@madkoala2130]

​​@@mbak7801at least you dont need to waste time on conversations in metric unlike your monkey units..

[@ThumpertTheFascistCottontail]

I was bought up metric, but I'm learning to use imperial sometimes. Both have their pros and cons.

Rocket is pointy, General Admiral Aladeen would be pleased

[@jacopo1498]

Aladeen!

[@colinmoore7460]

Some are domed bullet shaped, some are pointy. Slower long range missiles like the old Pershing are the bullet shaped ones...

[@JUnkaZTobby]

potasium nitrate(like industrial fertilizer/weedkiller) meets sulfuric acid(drain cleaner) meets cotton balls = perfect firestarter while out in the woods for your campfire = guncotton... first major error was they NEVER cooled it to prevent excess fumes which is harmfull and reduces potency

[@retrorainbow5861]

old mc donald had a farm... a meow, moo, hee-haw and cock-a-doodle-doo.... seems like a sinister plot twist in this once so child friendly song....

[@nickyoung9108]

For those who read comments first before watching the video, here's 24:34 the context.

[@mernokimuvek]

He said ammonium nitrate.

[@pauloalvesdesouza7911]

My late dad used to say (about F1 ) "to be a champion one needs talent, equipment and luck". The kiwis had all.

[@Disinterested1]

I understand why you would want to avoid black powder under extreme pressure in steel is not an idea that should be first option if you have any choices!

[@colinmoore7460]

Wasn't Sam Colt a former nitros oxide salesman before he went into revolvers? Actually a light fragile roof is SOP for working with explosives, if things go wrong the blast goes up and out, instead of sideways.

[@Staynes89]

If ur curious im 99% sure there is a comment on the other channel where this Videos is on aswell has all the censored ingredients listed lol

[@mernokimuvek]

Nitrous oxide recipte: heat ammoniunm nitrate. Guncotton recipe: nitrate cellulose in concentrated nitric acid mixed with concentrated sulfuric acid. Censoring it is pointless, all the information is readily available in books or at legitimate websites..

[@Damaged7]

@@mernokimuvek Not sure why they would do things differently 20 years ago. I mean, probably had something to do with the fact they were contractually obligated to create a TV show and abide my all kind of different laws while doing so..... maybe.

[@rage9715]

@@mernokimuvek So they can't be blamed for everyone copying them If they found the method on some website Mythbusters aren't going to be held accountable.

[@tfrowlett8752]

25:10 I can’t stop laughing at this

[@christianellegaard7120]

"Two days, baby!" More like a couple of weeks and several prototypes.

[@IanSelvaraj]

Did Grant say ammonium nitrate with sulphur? I think my lip reading was somewhere there?

[@mernokimuvek]

Definitely said ammonium nitrate. That alone is enough if you het it to 210 Celsius.

She is gnarly ready, pun intended.

38:47 more bouncing plz. Anyway, there is many secrets in this episode id like to know.. for getting good time high and for weapon making..

[@gavshomebrew]

Why makeing nos is fun and simple to do but there must be a element of danger in the process of making the nos i know the process but am respecting your video by keeping the details a secret as per your video

the swing 360 was bs. people do it rather often with steel bar swings instead of chain swings

What about the Myth that American peoples are good at History ?

[@timholstpetersen79]

Had Elon Musk lived at that time they would've made a whole bunch of them.... and working ;-)

[@Damaged7]

You do know that Elon didn't invent rocketry right?

[@timholstpetersen79]

@@Damaged7 You DO know, the Chinese invented the rocket, right? What does that have to do with anything.... who INVENTED the rocket? Everything has to do with what they can DO with rockets, no? Why such a moronic question? Do you agree (!!!), that Elon Musks company, SpaceX, is, right now, THE most successful space company on the planet? ... and keeping in mind, Musks way of running a company, say, fx., the way he made TESLA actually work as a huge company/business, by sleeping at the factory to make it through.... do you think Elon Musk has anything to do with SpaceX's success, or not?
