Very cool video. As a combat army veteran of the Vietnam Conflict, I have used grenades before. We knew about the timing system after you pulled the pin, but no one ever really explained exactly how it all came together to cause the explosion. The very first thing that surprised me about the hand grenade was how heavy it was.

[@sonofdavidTV]

Cool

[@james102377]

I was just asking some veterans today how they ignite and none knew. I said I'd think the military would teach you that in case you needed a fuse or detonator for something else important and could rob it from a grenade.

[@felixmadison5736]

@@james102377As long as you could pull the pin and throw the grenade, you were good to go. Just like with the draft. If you walked in under your own power, you walked out classified 1-A.

[@elsadcukali4801]

Does it explode if you pull the pin and still in your hand?

[@felixmadison5736]

@@elsadcukali4801No. It's after you take your hand off the safety lever. Then you throw the grenade as fast as you can!

This kind of mechanism makes this grenade safer than the German stick grenade. As long as you hold on to the safety lever after pulling the pin, it won't go off.

[@mitchellsheridan5252]

Can even replace the pin too

[@the-entire-egg2691]

It's a time delay so after you let the lever go you still have three maybe five seconds until it blows

[@dpz9872]

Usually. 😄

[@nicholashodges201]

Yeah, but this particular type of fuze is prone to damage, making them MUCH less reliable or safe than the western style. Also the stick grenades were pretty safe, as long as the user wasn't a complete idiot. If anything, they're safe due to the extended range they had. It was the WW1 stick grenades that tended to get their cord snagged and activating them. That was fixed before the second one. Cold war era *Soviet* stick grenades were notoriously iffy, though. EVERYBODY hated those. Nobody ever knew when they'd go off AND the base cap had to be glued on if you didn't want a surprise explosion while on march

[@lewischacon6009]

So simple yet so genius. Thanks for the video mate

[@ZakLiTLearnfortheEnvironment]

The way you have explained is simply Phenomenal...

[@mnpd3]

Notching the outside of the grenade body has no effect on fragmentation. Weapon designers learned that long after the fact, and began notching the INSIDE of grenade bodies, or using an inner-notched sleeve or spring. Notched fragmentation works because of the shaped/hollow charge effect, which only occurs if the notching faces the explosive filler.

[@nicholashodges201]

The notches on the US "pineapple grenade" were *never* about fragmentation. They were there for grip. They were removed because they messed with fragmentation. And pressed sheet metal was infinitely cheaper than cast steel

[@TomO-nx1bd]

[@David-hm9ic]

When I was a kid deactivated hand grenades were readily available with the firing mechanism burned but still complete. They had a spring loaded firing pin that pivoted when the safety handle was released. It struck a primer, much like a centerfire rifle primer. The primer ignited a chemical fuse; no match or hobby shop igniter fuse was involved but the concept is similar.

[@nicholashodges201]

He based this on the style of fuze the Russians use. It's much cheaper & easier to make, but since it's striker sticks up so far it's prone to damage. I much prefer the western style. Sure it costs a little more but you don't have to worry about breaking the striker. And punk kids like you & I can "reload" them with caps, or did that shit stop in the 80's?

[@legoseghal]

Hi may i know u

[@nicholashodges201]

@@linearswitchguy9593 I never said it used marches, I'm not an idiot. I said the striker assembly on the Soviet style grenades can and do break because they stick out the way they do.

[@keymaker410]

Just think of all the testing and design experimentation that early engineers must have done before arriving at any grenade design that could reliably work in various conditions. Fascinating

[@jasonfranke5810]

Well think about it like this. A grenade was nothing more than a cannonball with a fuse on it back in the day. Weighed alot less of course. I believe the pen/spoon / blast cap idea wasn't thought of until like; I want to say like Spanish-American war to world war one.

Wow amazing video and very clear didnt expect to find out how a grenade works within few minutes you solved a life long question and earned a sub! Something more : do all grenades work by lighting a match? Or just the old ones? Doesnt using a match rises the possibility of the grenade to fail?

[@audiopathikz4669]

This is not an actual F-1, it is a functional reconstruction. The charge and detonator in this model is all made of matchheads, the actual F-1 is filled with 60 grams of TNT, a grey clay-like substance and there is no match cord, the detonator is a pyrotechnic substance of varying composition to control detonation delay. The red army used it since during WW2 and it is long replaced by better models, however like much abandoned soviet wargear a *lot* of it is still being used by south african/american armies and warbands.

[@nicholashodges201]

What makes them explode though? We've only seen fire with the dissection part, is there some sort of gunpowder too to make it explode and not just burn?

[@dtester]

In a real grenade that body will be filled with some kind of high explosive charge like TNT.

[@Kalashnigoon]

Real grenades use a metallic primer that ignites a chemical fuse that leads to a charge equivalent to a No. 8 blasting cap. The cap detonates a high explosive charge on the inside, usually some type of plastic explosive
