Would be cool to see one of those cable systems they use to make Captain America super jump or something. Should probably invite some real stunt people from the stunt man reacts videos to not only give you the tips, trick, and warnings. Even if only just a zoom video call to warn you that to you need it to ramp up to speed slower so that it doesn't knock your knees off. 😉
In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them; maybe you can hire Tyler Bell.
Not sure if this makes an episode or just for you having fun. Take a run up at the air ram, but this time jump and land on it with both feet and your legs pretty straight (if your legs are bent, you'll probably end up crumpling and landing badly) then take to the skies. You'll find that you can slowly speed up the rams so that you can get used to the force AND the landings. Have you've ever seen bungy trampolines at fares? They have kids connected to a bungy cord on each hip that stabilise them and help them control what they are doing. You might want to look at building a system like this that will allow you to be able to practice the really BIG jumps...... and flips, somersaults, etc. It will also help you move on to stunts like Captain America jumping a massive ally and into a higher floor window. It's all about building on the stunts and experience you already have, so that's probably the route I'd take. Have fun 😁😊😊😊👍👍👍
What a beautiful build. And major kudos for testing it out on yourself! It’s really cool to see other RUclipsrs exploring the world of special effects engineering. -Niko
13:30 stunt guy here, some things I learned when I first used an air ram: keep running until you are in the air, you're anticipating the aerial part and start your aerial movements while still being launched. As seen in the first practice runs it didn't end well and kept hitting parts of you're body on the ram. At first you weren't sure what to do but figured it out with more practice, and looks like you got a good foot placement for your ram. But started turning to try the Kool aerial stunts by doing a face-off/twist/180. That turn should be done once airborne, not while trying to launch. You're using feet/legs to turn when they should be used to gain altitude. Most stunt people I've met that used this style of air ram use their upper body to turn. best way to practice for me is by jumping up and down straight in the air and turning my shoulder as if someone is trying to grab my shoulder, the rest of the body follows. Basically jump in the air and do a 180. After that incorporate that practice in to the aerial part of using an air ram. The overall use should go like step-launch-aerial stuff-prep for land-land. If you ever teach others to use your ram, take notes of where your foot is when stepping on the pressure plate and make sure they know where to place their foot as well. Also try practice runs where they run along the side of the ram instead of into the ram and watch where their foot would have stepped to see if it's the correct placement. Maybe put a piece of cardboard on the ground the same dimensions As the pressure plate. As you stated you couldn't see the plate with the helmet on, a new user of the air ram will be very nervous and might miss just as much as you did even without a helmet. They always get their brain in a twist when they have to worry about the steps, what to do in the air, etc. Also I have always been told by all my riggers to treat an air ram like a gun, if you're carrying or adjusting the ram and it's loaded it'll snap your head off your neck.
A lot of comments here are saying I should have locked my knee and made my leg straight or stepped with both feet. Doesn't sound like a good idea. What do you think?
@@TylerBellMakes not a stuntman, but a lifter, so someone who knows what strain to joints is, i would keep my knee as close to straight as i could WITHOUT any chance of it locking out. If youre tightening the muscle and the joint is completely straight, the path of least resistance may be VERY different than the one you want. Look up leg press machine lock-out injuries if you want to learn how a knee DOESNT work, ruin your night, and be too afraid to ever use a leg press machine
@@TylerBellMakes I agree with pridedmaxx, locking knees will be bad for your joints. Everyone that has ever taught me to use these types of air rams say to get a running start and keep running until you're airborne. I think I saw some other comments saying to do a jumping motion but I disagree. The pressure plate has triggered and is probably already moving, sending your feet up before you can make a real jumping motion. A super quick delay could mitigate this but I'd rather stick to a running motion. With the running motion you're basically always pushing off the plate when launching. One thing all my teachers have seen with air rams when using two feet to jump or lock knees is that they can't propel themselves upwards when the air ram starts swinging forwards, so people end up diving straight into the ground.
This next test involves the Aperture Science Aerial Faith Plate. It was part of an initiative to investigate how well test subjects could solve problems when they were catapulted into space. Results were highly informative: They could not. Good luck!
I’m honestly pretty sad more people didn’t think of this, the thumbnail itself got me thinking of portal and it’s the only reason I clicked on the video. GLaDOS would be so proud!
@@RandySeverino come on you can't just tell us you have spark ones too without telling us how they work lol Or tell us if we'd go to jail if we took them to a paintball game 🤣

“Look at you. Sailing through the air majestically. Like an eagle. Piloting a blimp.” Man, I just learned that the jump plates from Portal exist in real life and I am so happy. Great video!
thats already a contender for video for the year for me holy damn It got: Engineering, Doing your own stunts and learning a new skill, special effects and film-making. What an absolutely incredible contribution to RUclips.
This is so much fun. That last scene was just perfect. Goes to show you that it doesn't matter how good of an actor you are if you're genuinely enjoying what you're doing it comes through to the audience it's still incredibly entertaining.
I live in Seattle (and have lived most of my life in the area), and was just randomly served this video by the algorithm - I had been watching for a while, when, as you were in your back yard, I thought, "if that's not a Pacific Northwest (and likely Seattle Metro Area) back yard, I will eat a live geoduck." Like, I have never seen something so innately familiar, ha!
LOVE these practical effects projects dude, this one was insanely sick. Had no idea I’d be into air rams, and now even I wanna build one 😂 or at least borrow yours
Something I've always wanted in real life are the Arial Faith Plates from Portal 2, and I always thought it was outlandish. I didn't know about the Air Rams, and the fact you made one yourself with nothing but an engineering degree, and a passion for 80s action movies, all made my dream come true.
Safest? Like in: I took bigger actuators than the professionals. or I loved the muzzle flash instead of digital effects. Just stay aware that you can make it safer, but you won't make it safest.
@Stephen Whittam translation: don't try this at home.... tho, if my math checks out, that is, 1 has the resources, money, & enough engineering salt to interpret his journey, well, the only thing keeping you on the ground is you (and that's OK. We can hang. )!
Honestly it's a mix of things his upload schedule, thumbnails/ titles aren't super clicky for the average person, lack of colabs, lack of sponsorship. I'm sure if he partnered with a good person to manage the RUclips side he could explode.
He will get there! It takes some time until the algorithm goes through the roof. For some, it takes years to reach 100k, but from then on, it goes straight up, because the algorithm has picked them.
As a lifelong movie nerd, video editor, and amateur filmmaker... I have MASSIVE respect for what you're doing here, Tyler. This is easily my new favourite RUclips channel.
Click bait, 19 minutes too long, nothing cool really happening. That's the 20s RUclips in a nut shell. I hated this. I would 3x the PSI first tyy and make it in to a 25 sec vid
As a civil engineer who loves mechanical engineering, how has youtube never recommended you before? Excellent build, explanations, editing, and creativity!
Check out the back catalogue of videos, he has done some crackers in the past 👍 hopefully this video is the one that really launches the channel as Tyler has deserved a huge following for a long time and also I hope it helps him afford the slow motion camera he has longed for 🤞
This is the first time I seen this channel and I'm surprised at the subscriber level, I figured it would be north of a million with the level of professionalism and complexity of the project. This channel will get there fairly fast.
Duuuude! This was an epic video. So much effort you put into this one, it really shows. I loved your guy's reactions to the initial tests, I would definitely be scared to step on that thing for the first time. Can't wait to see the next video.
Now I really want you to get in touch with the corridor guys, I'm sure they'd love to see and try this! Plus, Gui, Aaron, or one of the other guests could show them (and maybe you) how to use it even more effectively!
Midway through he was landing decent dive rolls on the pads, and his last stunt was decent looking. Keep in mind he's an engineer and not a wide receiver.
You always make messing around seem so professional and buttoned up. Your literally one of the only channels I set the notifications on for. Always look forward to what is next. Also corridor crew stunt man reacts is sooo good. I wish I had disposable income to mess around the way you mess around. 😂 Your channel is TV quality every time. I hope you never stop putting out videos.
Epic video, mad respect for keeping the art of practical effects alive. So many people could do this same scene by spending 2 days on their computer, but there is something much more special and real when you know the stunts were done practically!
If I could have any person in the world as my friend, I think I'd choose this guy. I would have SO MUCH fun working on these projects Honestly, I'm a bit upset that youtube hasn't recommended this channel to me sooner
Watching this felt like I was watching a NileRed video, but instead of making a chemical using Chemistry and magic, it was making an action video using various props that you built (and explained) with some movie magic. Super nice video! I love it! How do you only have 100k subscribers??
Dude, your videos are so freaking good. Better than some large budget RUclipsrs with millions of subs. You consistently deliver some of the best content on this platform, keep it up and this channel will blow up.
My first @TylerBellMakes video... the quality and production is amazing. Loads of fun too. How have I not seen you before? On par with Colin Furze, Hacksmith, I Did A Thing, Stuff Built Here... all my faves! Thanks, RUclips algorithm - actually working since 2023!
Just found this channel by recommendation from RUclips. Instant sub. I absolutely loved myth busters and was devastated when it was cancelled. So so glad to see so many amazing youths carrying the torch and producing amazing science/engineering content for the next generation who missed out on myth busters. Thanks for some awesome content. Can't wait to binge the rest of your channel. :)
I love that he talked so much about special effects, without realizing he is becoming a master of "practical effects". Arguably way better and way harder to do them well. Great job 😅
Air ram, dust paint balls, air mortar, fake punches, fake human throw, fake grenade, blanks fired from a gun. NONE of that was added in post production, that's all practical effects baby!!!
@@joeyshouse6405 nah, just complimenting his practical affects work. Technically, practical effects are referred to as a "mechanical special effect" but they differ from all other types of SFX and are rarely referred to as special effects.
I love watching your channel grow. I remember when you had a few thousand subs and I was like “why hasn’t he blown up yet??” I can feel it, it’s starting, it’s coming! What a video Tyler! What a project!
The instant you said greatest TV show of all time I knew you meant A Team. I grew up watching it all the time, so I also appreciate that cut up oil drums make an appearance in your video. They were an A Team staple.
Best A-Team-related video ever! I love the 15:45 montage with the breakbeat. Legit nerd details, and the audio quality really makes these videos stand out. This video also makes me want more Pelican cases with those cool customizable foam inverse-lego interiors.
I'm glad you talked about your safety protocol with your prop guns. it sounds like you went with the industry standard for the most part, but i'm curious if you probed the prop gun for obstructions before each take? Scott Prop and Roll on youtube has a fantastic breakdown of the safety protocol his sets use, and probing the barrel for obstructions is a key part of it (an obstruction is what killed Brandon Lee). Even a little piece of debris getting stuck in the barrel during a take could be dangerous
That was epic! My wife clapped at the final cut. You’ve got what it takes and with some more practice I can see you being able to do professional work! Solid 8/10 Can’t wait to see the fireballs
I swear, these things are like real versions of the aerial faith plate from portal 2, and I'm willing to bet that these things are what inspired the faith plate, it would make for a dope portal short film
You’ve definitely earned the title of Action Hero in my books! So glad the YT algorithm recommended this video to me. You’ve gained a new subscriber. Best wishes and stay safe.
That first successful launch though! Sooo good! Thanks for the shout-out for the manikin too. Adding 'testing air rams' to our list of things our manikins can be used for 😆
That setup is just ludicrously legit, not even just for something you put together yourself but the fact that you built it yourself makes it even more impressive.
That was amazing! I think you have a great talent and will go very far in film making! This is coming from someone who has worked in the industry for almost 30 years (not any kind of big-wig or anything, just a career gaffer, grip and fx guy) and I don’t dispense this kind of complement lightly! So as we say in the industry “break a leg” (just not literally!)
You definitely earned it bro. This is the first video I've seen of yours so I have to admit at first I was questioning your abilities but you totally proved me wrong and you got a new subscriber 🤘🏻
This is an awesome video. Perfect level of detail and such a cool design/build. Also, that first test was hilarious. As slow as can be but completely unbalancing so it looked way exaggerated like a soccer player taking a flop.
Amazing. Well done. I really enjoy these and seeing all your trial and error and how you learn from it. Also glad you are thinking of safety lol. Well done. Super fun to watch.
The Aperture Science Aerial Faith Plate, commonly referred to as Faith Plates or launchpads, is a mechanism introduced in Portal 2. This device launches players over a gap or to a specific destination at a set velocity and height. It can be used in conjunction with portals, and the Plate's ability to preserve the velocity of the user makes it an effective means of travel to far or otherwise inaccessible places.
Man, the timing of the dust and the acceleration in your jump is absolutely perfect. It 100% looks like you jump at the last second and are then propelled by the explosion.
That was Spectacular! Keep the content coming, it's very entertaining! I as a view like the fact you kept the cut scenes and behind the scenes in the final cut. This aspect keeps it real and shows the humour and excitement behind the camera. By the end of this video I was wanting to do something similar. Looks like good fun.
Holy cow dung, man, this video was simply incredible. This brought the magic of movie making, and engineering together perfectly in a way that you don't see anywhere else, I love it! (Also setting a good example in terms of safety here, props for that,)
This is probably one of the coolest channels I’ve ever come across. Tyler did a really good job of explaining everything and making the video entertaining. New subscriber here for sure.
Just found your youtube channel with this video, I absolutely love the content! Especially the fact that you're clearly having so much fun with everything you do here!
I love watching the learning process here, clearly you have a vision and a goal and im excited to see how far you can go with this. Awesome video, thank you! Subscribed :)
I've never seen your videos before, but when you said you loved 70's and 80's shows, I 100% KNEW that you were about to say the A-Team. Btw, great job on all the engineering.
This video just reinforces the fact that this is one of my favorite channels on the entire RUclips. It is so incredibly entertaining and I have mad respect for the amount of work that went into this video.
Awesome! You've got a new subscriber! I've been wondering when a real good quality movie would be released on RUclips. This is a step in that direction
What special effects should I try next?
This was a pricey video. Thanks to my patrons for helping make this possible!!

Have you've ever seen bungy trampolines at fares? They have kids connected to a bungy cord on each hip that stabilise them and help them control what they are doing. You might want to look at building a system like this that will allow you to be able to practice the really BIG jumps...... and flips, somersaults, etc. It will also help you move on to stunts like Captain America jumping a massive ally and into a higher floor window. It's all about building on the stunts and experience you already have, so that's probably the route I'd take. Have fun 😁😊😊😊👍👍👍

Your videos deliver what Mark Rober is promising! No blabla former NASA Engineer. Just fantastic work!
Watching this felt like I was watching a NileRed video, but instead of making a chemical using Chemistry and magic, it was making an action video using various props that you built (and explained) with some movie magic. Super nice video! I love it! How do you only have 100k subscribers??
Same!
Dude, your videos are so freaking good. Better than some large budget RUclipsrs with millions of subs. You consistently deliver some of the best content on this platform, keep it up and this channel will blow up.
The amount of effort and skill that went into this considering it’s a “small” channel is pretty incredible, gained my sub
As a former film student and special effects aficionado, this is the best!
Your channel is severly underrated. Hope it takes off real soon
My first @TylerBellMakes video... the quality and production is amazing. Loads of fun too. How have I not seen you before? On par with Colin Furze, Hacksmith, I Did A Thing, Stuff Built Here... all my faves!
Thanks, RUclips algorithm - actually working since 2023!
One of your coolest videos! I know you must have put more work into this than the video leads people to believe. Great work Tyler 👊🏼
Thanks man!!
I rarely find videos that i actually enjoy. This one here was veeery enjoyable, just subbed!
20:29 perfect reaction to a live grenade.
Just found this channel by recommendation from RUclips. Instant sub.
I absolutely loved myth busters and was devastated when it was cancelled. So so glad to see so many amazing youths carrying the torch and producing amazing science/engineering content for the next generation who missed out on myth busters.
Thanks for some awesome content. Can't wait to binge the rest of your channel. :)
I love that he talked so much about special effects, without realizing he is becoming a master of "practical effects".
Arguably way better and way harder to do them well. Great job 😅
Air ram, dust paint balls, air mortar, fake punches, fake human throw, fake grenade, blanks fired from a gun. NONE of that was added in post production, that's all practical effects baby!!!
He is referring to Special effects because they are all in camera aka “practical”. I think your looking for the term vfx or more specifically cgi?
@@joeyshouse6405 nah, just complimenting his practical affects work. Technically, practical effects are referred to as a "mechanical special effect" but they differ from all other types of SFX and are rarely referred to as special effects.
I love watching your channel grow. I remember when you had a few thousand subs and I was like “why hasn’t he blown up yet??”
I can feel it, it’s starting, it’s coming!
What a video Tyler! What a project!
The instant you said greatest TV show of all time I knew you meant A Team. I grew up watching it all the time, so I also appreciate that cut up oil drums make an appearance in your video. They were an A Team staple.
Best A-Team-related video ever! I love the 15:45 montage with the breakbeat. Legit nerd details, and the audio quality really makes these videos stand out.
This video also makes me want more Pelican cases with those cool customizable foam inverse-lego interiors.
I'm glad you talked about your safety protocol with your prop guns. it sounds like you went with the industry standard for the most part, but i'm curious if you probed the prop gun for obstructions before each take? Scott Prop and Roll on youtube has a fantastic breakdown of the safety protocol his sets use, and probing the barrel for obstructions is a key part of it (an obstruction is what killed Brandon Lee). Even a little piece of debris getting stuck in the barrel during a take could be dangerous
Fabrication, engineering, stuntman shenanigans, and fight choreography. Such a great combo of stuff all in one video. 👏
You know it has to be a great video when there are so many huge RUclipsrs commenting. Well done TB!!
That was epic! My wife clapped at the final cut.
You’ve got what it takes and with some more practice I can see you being able to do professional work!
Solid 8/10
Can’t wait to see the fireballs
I swear, these things are like real versions of the aerial faith plate from portal 2, and I'm willing to bet that these things are what inspired the faith plate, it would make for a dope portal short film
You’ve definitely earned the title of Action Hero in my books! So glad the YT algorithm recommended this video to me. You’ve gained a new subscriber. Best wishes and stay safe.
That first successful launch though! Sooo good! Thanks for the shout-out for the manikin too. Adding 'testing air rams' to our list of things our manikins can be used for 😆
Can't wait to launch it through the roof of a car!!
That setup is just ludicrously legit, not even just for something you put together yourself but the fact that you built it yourself makes it even more impressive.
I think this might be the coolest channel on RUclips. And I’ve only watched two videos!
That was amazing! I think you have a great talent and will go very far in film making! This is coming from someone who has worked in the industry for almost 30 years (not any kind of big-wig or anything, just a career gaffer, grip and fx guy) and I don’t dispense this kind of complement lightly! So as we say in the industry “break a leg” (just not literally!)
This looks like 10x better than the CGI they use today. Amazing! The lighting on the dust and how your body move through the air look so much cooler.
You definitely earned it bro. This is the first video I've seen of yours so I have to admit at first I was questioning your abilities but you totally proved me wrong and you got a new subscriber 🤘🏻
This is an awesome video. Perfect level of detail and such a cool design/build. Also, that first test was hilarious. As slow as can be but completely unbalancing so it looked way exaggerated like a soccer player taking a flop.
Amazing. Well done. I really enjoy these and seeing all your trial and error and how you learn from it. Also glad you are thinking of safety lol. Well done. Super fun to watch.
Your brother's reaction at the first failed launch was hilarious.
I love it when a plan comes together! ;) Great fun to watch, very glad you didn't injure yourself.
The Aperture Science Aerial Faith Plate, commonly referred to as Faith Plates or launchpads, is a mechanism introduced in Portal 2. This device launches players over a gap or to a specific destination at a set velocity and height. It can be used in conjunction with portals, and the Plate's ability to preserve the velocity of the user makes it an effective means of travel to far or otherwise inaccessible places.
Man, the timing of the dust and the acceleration in your jump is absolutely perfect. It 100% looks like you jump at the last second and are then propelled by the explosion.
That was Spectacular! Keep the content coming, it's very entertaining!
I as a view like the fact you kept the cut scenes and behind the scenes in the final cut. This aspect keeps it real and shows the humour and excitement behind the camera. By the end of this video I was wanting to do something similar. Looks like good fun.
Wow, you're like my favorite action-engineer now?! That was so cool!
Holy cow dung, man, this video was simply incredible.
This brought the magic of movie making, and engineering together perfectly in a way that you don't see anywhere else, I love it!
(Also setting a good example in terms of safety here, props for that,)
16:55 I got that reference. Isn't it strange when a youtuber is a better film armorer than a "hollywood" one ?
Good job!! You just fulfilled the real meaning of YOUTube! I'm fairly impressed!
This is probably one of the coolest channels I’ve ever come across. Tyler did a really good job of explaining everything and making the video entertaining. New subscriber here for sure.
Just found your youtube channel with this video, I absolutely love the content! Especially the fact that you're clearly having so much fun with everything you do here!
12:23 this what call of duty omni movement be looking like.
Exactly what I was saying
I love watching the learning process here, clearly you have a vision and a goal and im excited to see how far you can go with this. Awesome video, thank you! Subscribed :)
I've never seen your videos before, but when you said you loved 70's and 80's shows, I 100% KNEW that you were about to say the A-Team.
Btw, great job on all the engineering.
This video just reinforces the fact that this is one of my favorite channels on the entire RUclips. It is so incredibly entertaining and I have mad respect for the amount of work that went into this video.
0:26 Dani would be proud
Wishlist kalrson 🔫😐
I was looking for this comment, Dani nostalgia hits different…
This channel has such high quality and great ideas that I'm always shocked to see it doesn't have millions of subs
20:25
Grenade : ...........
thisDude : "ghyYaaH"
Awesome! You've got a new subscriber! I've been wondering when a real good quality movie would be released on RUclips. This is a step in that direction
Blown away yet again Tyler! Great job! My knees hurt just watching lol
19:35 is where he jumps
That definitely wasn't 20ft 😂

Just a chill guy who posts helpful timestamps. Appreciate it c:
Arial faith plate
0:26 Dani reference?
the first "launch" was absolutely hilarious...well done on the whole project!!!
That was the greatest video I've seen in a long time!
1:32 what's this program called?
Looks like Fusion 360

that last scene was pretty cool
I really love the No Solicinator 5000. Removing solicitors from your door has never been easier.
