Video Transcript: Bearded Science Guy, here, and today I'm going to show you how to make a toilet paper shooter. Start with either a leaf blower or the blowing attachment to a shop vac. After that, take a small paint roller and add several layers of duct tape toward the top of the handle to make a spacer. Now securely tape the paint roller to the end of the leaf blower. Make sure as you load the toilet paper that it rests a couple of inches below the stream of air and not right in front of it. At this point, your toilet paper shooter is ready to fire. Bernoulli's principle states "the faster a fluid is traveling, the lower its pressure," so the toilet paper is actually be pushed into the fast-moving stream by the surrounding air. This is the same reason that an airplane's wings have lift and you can hover a ping pong ball over a blow dryer. But make sure, even when you're only shooting toilet paper, everyone in the area has eye protection. Thanks for watching Bearded Science Guy.

I needed this information yesterday so I could TP houses better.

[@sussekind9717]

Had I known that as a kid, it would have made TP'ing houses so much easier.
Granted, it's noisy, but with as much as it shoots out at once, it would make the get away, that much quicker.
I wonder if you can make a silencer, for a leaf blower? That would be a great experiment!

Ber·noul·li's prin·ci·ple
noun
the principle in hydrodynamics that an increase in the velocity of a stream of fluid results in a decrease in pressure. Also called Bernoulli effect or Bernoulli theorem.

I see you posted this a day AFTER Halloween. Didn't want to be accused of instigating TP attacks on houses, eh? 😂

[@notme9872]

This thing is awesome :D

[@ncino12]

wear eye protection, you don't want those paper cuts on your eyes!

[@BeardedScienceGuy]

Don't want a rock or stick pushed into the stream of air and accidentally shot at someone instead of toilet paper.

[@ncino12]

i think mine is more dangerous xD

[@supercables251]

Also wear eye protection when using the restroom.

[@luanlmd]

Manual do mundo?

[@dm_nimbus]

Now I just need to find a nearby taco night

[@PenelopeStoneVT]

Why wouldn't we have on the eye protection? The goggles are cool V.v

[@instrumentenfreak]

funny thing xD
