My young daughter has special needs, and has a hard time communicating verbally, but she asks to watch an HR video most nights before bed. She calls it "ball movie" due to all the tower drops with bowling balls. At any rate, her eyes go wide and she does a happy "Wooow! everytime something blows up. So... y'all have made a a little girl quite happy many times over. Well done.

[@theslowmobros1988]

[@wachinpntdry.]

forget the plastic 16lb bowling balls.... need to fire a 16lb bean bag (like a heavy nylon etc bag full of ball bearings or BBs)...right size bag will fill the barrel nicely, transfer all that energy into velocity... and a bean bag will hit hard, no chance of any deflection that can happen with solid objects

[@calmchipmunk264]

Yes

[@vtjeh]

Actually a good idea, would be sick footage

[@buckeyecountry04]

A bean bad would disperse the energy too far across the surface as it would have more surface area than the ball

[@cable7152]

​@@buckeyecountry04and tear apart on entry

[@buckeyecountry04]

@ I wouldn’t be worried about that with the right material, but it’s also going to slow down as soon as it naturally opens up because of the drag it creates

I think would probably work too. Not bad shib. We should go work with them. You come up with great ideas then you tell me I tell the H.R. team and say it was my idea. Then I I mean we get standing ovations and we're rich. Hell yea did you see what a good I mean great idea I just had? That's like genius. What you think man are you in? We're going to be rich. Ok. Ok I will let you come up with 2 or 3 good ideas for you to show the team that way they know there still some spark left somewhere in that head of your's. And show them he's still useful to them... and maybe you can keep your job Because with all the great ideas that you gladly give to me makes me team member of forever. O yea it's so much paid time off. You get a fuck ton more money and I will never say no to money and plus I'm making my 2nd office a strip club. Yea a ton of Hot Honnies for days.

@Jordan Townsend Racing for the next Humvee u want to fortify use Spaced armor and paralel steel to stop the incoming projectile, also use a 80mm RHA steel plateand agle them better. Infront of that plate put a simple Industrial ceramic plate in aluminium infront of that, that will stop the main impact force and helps the RHA Steel plate to absorb more energy and therefor longer it's life.

The fact that these major KZbin channels that I have been watching on and off for years are doing collabs is awesome. Its the same vibes as when Scooby-Doo would have guest appearances on the cartoon when I was a kid. Im also impressed at how this channel has grown. I found it in like mebbe 2017, and it was mostly dropping shit off of that one tower. Now youre in America firing harpoon and bowling ball cannons at a military-grade Humvee, and recording the results in slow-motion. "How Ridiculous" is quite the apropos name!

@howridiculous as usual the video was 1/4 as interesting as it should have been. the entire audience aswell as the guy who built the humvee was expecting you to shoot at it from far enough away that you werent sure where you would hit it, which would have been super interesting. instead you just took point blank shots at it untill it died, you may aswell have just walked up to it and cut the ignition. and what an absoloute waste to not have shot those wheel guards, everyone involved except the three of you wanted to see how well they protected the wheels.
