I imagined they were just a bunch of “normal” rockets strapped to a bamboo frame. Now I see they are way more complex than that, and I see exactly why. Thank you Leo and thanks to the rocketeers!
I wanted to know how these rockets are put together. This video did a wonderful job at that. It's both really interesting to watch and very informative. Thank you😊
I've seen plenty of footage of these rockets flying, but never anything about the construction. Not only is this a much-appreciated insight, it's an incredibly well constructed video. Thank you very much!
That was absolute fantastic. I had seen a video of those rockets years ago and I'm so happy to know more about them now. Having tried to make my own rockets I have great respect for what they have accomplished.
New sub here. This explanation was exactly what I was searching for yesterday and today it showed up in my suggestions. Great job of covering each portion of the rockets and well paced narrative. Thank you!
As an amateur rocket scientist I find these fascinating! Thanks for the insightful video - it's amazing what they achieve with traditional methods and locally sourced, natural materials. I can only imagine the heady smell of sulpher dioxide and parched bamboo in a humid climate :-) More please!
You know, I've just realized that I was wondering about these rockets in the back of my mind for a while now. And now here I've had more than my undeveloped questions answered. Amazing video. Thank you so much! Subbed not b/c you asked lol. Found this through a Hackaday article.
Wow! Great video, thanks for sharing. And really appreciated the explanation both of the construction but also the context of the people/place/culture.
Super interesting video, Leo! BTW, I built your Continuity Tester and it works wonderfully. I made my own one-sided PCB, with all surface mount pads. Components are a mixture of through-hole and SMD parts, with the through-hole parts soldered to the smd pads, with their legs cut short. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Excellent. And excellent video. You could add some additives in the propellant to create a different coloured smoker. And...you could VARY that. Not only in position, from a nozzle, but in TIME, as in vary it radially, so as the propellant burned longer, it weould go into different colour areas
Thanks for making this interesting video Leo. ,,,Hope the IsanRocket people announces their 'flight' with Thai-ATControll 🙂 (..It seems those spinnRockets can reach really high)
Japan used/uses heat shields based on white oak for reentry protection. Some organic materials rock for heat shields and ablative insulators. Nothing wrong with banana bark and leaves, plus environmentally friendly.
You derived some profound existential and social metaphors from this scenario, very well said imho. I was entirely unaware of all of this, of course; it's one of the best things I've ever seen!!!😂😂😂 Thank you.💚
You say it's "incredibly simple" and I did expect it to be... But the hydraulic press bit did not quite rhyme with simple 😄 Anyway great video, now I know how they do this brilliant spectacle and I don't know if it can be made simpler.
In the section about risks, I kind of expected you to mention the gore occurrence rate in the festivals year over year... Or maybe that's something we do not talk about 🙈
Looking at the boxes on the shelf above his head, reading from left to right, soldering tools, wire (something), (something), soldering jigs / bender, solder (something) tips, RS-485 interface, switches, existential crisis, capacitors .... existential crisis?????
Hello Leo you said that your suscribers capped at ~8k. My suggestion, do more videos on topics that have gotten you more views. The sterling proyect for example was quite successful. I think if you continue that line you will have good chances to grow.
as the tubes are getting loaded, the guys are busy puffing away on their cigarettes.... is that stupid, or what?! if this whole thing is being done by these guys by 'generational' transmissions from seniors to apprentices while all of them are "illiterate of the sciences beneath" like the "country pyrotechnics shows" guys in our indian rural temple festivals and deities' serenades around town - then where does that leave 'you' (that is, me) ? should this - undoubtedly spectacular - feat be admired, or be wept over...???!! man, a bit of a conundrum, eh - Leo?? ps: BTW, i have promptly subscribed, and have hit the bell too. you deserve every support for the great work you are doing :)
What Isan province was this in? I've been to several bun bang fai festivals. Very cool video. You should mention that this technology is not generally "Thai" but "Thai-Isan" or "Thai-Lao," the largest Thai ethnic group who live in the northeast.
There must be loads that NASA could learn from these guys if they took the chance and came to see what they create from such basic materials. Also, what is the maximum height that these rockets achieve?

Wow, thanks
แล้วปีล่าสุดพวกคุณได้ดูหรือยัง😊
the narration reminded me of how i used to overblow the sketchy stuff we did and write project reports as a freshman at my university 😅 brilliant !!
Amazing resourcefulness from these DIY rocketry enthusiasts! The "high performance washer" and the banana tree heat shield were pure greatness.
That was absolute fantastic. I had seen a video of those rockets years ago and I'm so happy to know more about them now. Having tried to make my own rockets I have great respect for what they have accomplished.
Great presentation, you answered many design questions that we had.
Thank you, thank you, very, very much

Absolutely brilliant! I wanna go!
wonderful video as always, glad to see you back Leo! Hope your ventures are going well :)
Excellent Video! Thanks Leo
Liked and leaving a comment to help this channel get the exposure it deserves!
Super interesting video, Leo!

Glad to have served you well!
thank you for sharing this with us, I did not even suspect the existence, in addition it is very well explained, THANK YOU

That was great. I've never seen those types of rockets before. How high do they go?
10km +
I had never seen that before, very cool indeed!
I'm your fans from Indonesia🇮🇩
That was perfect. Excellent explanation. Thank you so much.
Ingenious design! Kudos to everyone!
Thanks for making this interesting video Leo. ,,,Hope the IsanRocket people announces their 'flight' with Thai-ATControll 🙂 (..It seems those spinnRockets can reach really high)
Wonderful presentation man! 👍 SUPER inspiring 👏 Banana tree skin: genius!
So cool! Thanks for the intro

welcome to thailand 🙏🙏

Most excellent video
This thing at the begining is fly much better than expected
I saw something similar called a girandola. Using steel is pretty bold.
I learned something today! Thanks!
loving the videos
Loved it! 👍
Great video
Where do they get the insane amount of gunpowder required to send that explosive gyro so incredibly high?
I think they collect bat or bird poop and mixing it with charcoal and Sulphur. All natural OG gunpowder 😅

This channel is amazing.
Don't be fooled by the simple bamboo construction. This is engineering.
Even the biggest telecom companies here use bamboo ladders- low cost, non-conductive and very strong.
@@leosbagoftricks3732 I have been to Asia. A 10 story bamboo scaffold will blow your mind.
In the section about risks, I kind of expected you to mention the gore occurrence rate in the festivals year over year... Or maybe that's something we do not talk about 🙈
Amazing, Thailand
It is the wise wisdom of the Thai people that has existed for a long time.
@leo what's in the box labeled existential crises?
Where do you keep yours?
Huh
Bottle caps for improvived washers
Never caught that episode of macgyver but I'll remember it
The addition of some airfoils would enhance climb rate, no?
Which country this festival celebrated?
Thailand
fine video
'beer bottle caps are used as high performance washers' That's all I needed to hear, sign me up and let's go hit the liquor store....

What happens with the steel pipe?

if this whole thing is being done by these guys by 'generational' transmissions from seniors to apprentices while all of them are "illiterate of the sciences beneath" like the "country pyrotechnics shows" guys in our indian rural temple festivals and deities' serenades around town - then where does that leave 'you' (that is, me) ?

ต้องใช้ถ่านจี้ชนวนเท่านั้น ถึงจะติดไฟ
Curious if they historically did such a thing with only natural materials perhaps (no steel pipes)? *brb trying out some things with kids
In ancient times, it was made of bamboo. I am from thailand.
You get 10 out of 10 for this video…
Thailand will go to the space ....
As a southerner….. who grew up in the Bible belt… These gentlemen are truly my spiritual brothers! All hail The gods of gun powder! 😁👍🤘
Good Lord this is really incredible. Thank you so much for the video
Holy smoke!😃
Nasa isan
Dude!
Agreed!
These guys act like they've never seen a pipe explosion go bad.
maybe nasa can use banana tree skin as an ablative lining! 😄

Yes- you are 100% correct!
The funniest thing is people with "protective masks" cheerfully running away from an iron pipe filled with gunpowder.
ดินปืนที่ส่วนผสมไม่เข้มข้น โอกาสระเบิดน้อยมาก นอกจากส่วนผสม ไม่ถูกต้อง
BONKERS!
Why not add silver iodide rockets to these. You can make it rain in each and every desert around the world
interesting
There must be loads that NASA could learn from these guys if they took the chance and came to see what they create from such basic materials.
Also, what is the maximum height that these rockets achieve?
800m.-1km.
bump
Don't try that in a dry climate.
Not ESD safe to be sure
What's in the parachute?
They dust it with baby powder to help it inflate smoothly
What goes up... must come down... hopefully not on any of the spectators heads
One tends to think about which way to run whenever a rocket launches
