Cloning the Ukrainian Fanta Bomb
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2024
- The Ukrainian Fanta Bomb is perhaps one of the most simple yet exotic devices we have tested to date. We get asked to test out many different explosive devices, and the Ukrainian fanta bomb is bar far up there in the category of wild concepts. We saw the original video that was made by an unknown Ukrainian soldier. It made the round across numerous social media platforms. Wars have a habit of forcing combatants to cook up wild devices through improvisation. So, we did our best to recreate the device and tested it to see if it would actually be effective.

We finally found an effective soda bottle recycling method: turning them into explosive devices.
lol
most American way to recycle
here's an academic question for you: can mechanically-detonated ANAl be used as an initiator to detonate ANFO?
I personally will stick to my states 10 cent recycling because I'm not experienced enough or knowledgeable enough to not lose my hands this way lol.
"Ukrainian fanta bomb is bar far up there in the category of wild concepts." Spelling mistakes my good dudes
This is definitely one of those "Should I watch it? Screw it, I'm probably already on a watch list" type of videos.
Always on some lost so fuck it
Don't worry it's even more suspiscious if you don't watch videos like this.
The "Agency" will go " Hmm here's a guy that is squeaky clean...."

I know your comment is supposed to be a joke, but you guys really think that before watching a video??? Lmao it's way more funny when i see your comment as serious, if someone thinks like that he's totally a pu$$y or the video is really detailled
I've been on a 'list' since I was 17. I joined the US Army. FJB and all the rest of those communists

The small drone warfare in Ukraine has really changed modern warfare. It's crazy watching those videos from both sides.
Was already happening in syria and iraq during the whole isis thing but yeah it has sure gone up a notch
Have you seen the videos of them dropping them in tank hatches? Scary accurate.
Wait until you see AI controlled drones that loiter and autonomously pick their targets in a geofenced region.

The idea it's going on is so surreal for sure.

In the army we had a whole course on making IEDs. Like, out of grenades? Take a block of TNT, a stick, some tape, a fuse and tape. Tadaa! A stick grenade.
"block of TNT" coming right up, Steve.

My take away from this is there's an obvious gap in the market. Make armoured codpieces great again! Protect those assets!
There are a couple of companies that make groin armor Hoplite armor even makes a rifle rated lv III groin protector
Right?! The first piece of armor I'm putting on is over by balls. If I lose those I'm taking myself out.
@@kevinroberts781 They seemed to go out of fashion around the same time we developed grenades, so maybe we're doomed as a species? There were some exceptions, eg Cameo and Larry Blackmon, but then he suffered an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction.
Scope for some simple marketing. Don't be hoist by your petard, wear our Lvl3a ballistic codpiece!
There was definitely some severe dongle damage going on there.

Body armor may stop frags. But the main artery in legs and arms. Just takes one to hit a artery. Great video.
Also a pretty important artery in the neck, yeah. Best to avoid getting shrapnel there - just ask Scott...
I've seen a video from drone dropped grenade and it just blew up the plate from body armour many meters away, I think, body armour is not much of a use against grenades but still effective against bullets from rifles
most modern body armor has sought to correct this but , even taking a 5.56 or 7.62x39 round on a plate carrier can create shrapnel which can kill you ! the plate stops the round but it splinters and takes pieces of ceramic plate with it that can lodge in your neck. spalling has caused enough injuries that developers have sough correct it!
The Home Guard in the UK during WW2 improvised numerous explosive devices including the glass " Kilner" preserve jar packed with 2-4 oz of Nobel 808 or gun cotton , topped with pea shingle off the beach or gravel excavated from a local pit and ignited with safety cord . Another was the ' M Mine ' , a cardboard tube with 64 glass marbles and 4 oz of Pentolite set off with a tread on friction fuse and completely undetectable.
Nice to see the old British devices making a reappearance with a modern twist .
The delivery method that they used for the Fanta grenades is one of the next generation warfare deals: lightly modified DJI and other civilian drones.
Makes me wonder how long till criminals get the idea to start using drones with shit like this for their illegal bs activities. I know most career criminals are dumb AF, but am I the only one who has concerns about this, or am I getting a bit too paranoid in my older years? Most of my friends think I'm too paranoid, especially since when we're out, my head is on a swivel, all while my friends aren't paying attention to shit. I'm not only looking at everyone around me, but I'm looking at what they're wearing, paying attention to how they're walking, how they're talking and pretty much anything else I can make a note mental note of. I tell them it's just situational awareness, but they say im just paranoid Lmfao
"Lightly Modified" = Lights On motherfuckers
@@richardsalinetrojr1957 As if lots of smuggling with drones isn't happening. Of course people are using drones.
@@richardsalinetrojr1957 you are not paranoid, it's better to be careful than to be dead
@jholotanbest2688 I honestly didn't know cartels were using them, but it honestly doesn't surprise me one bit. I've seen drones used in attempted prison drops and whatnot for drugs, smokes, and what have you. I mean, using drones to do drive-bys (well guess in this case, fly-bys) and to commit murder. that or use to drop homemade explosive devices onto homes, cars, or even drop in the middle of big gatherings such as protests or events. either way, this is a f**ked up world we're living in these days. And just think. When I grew up, we threw fists to settle some bs. Nowadays, these a**holes think they're a bigger man for pulling the trigger than they are for dishing out or taking an ass whipping.
You could rejuvenate the targets with white FlexSeal rubberized spray (or similar) then spray red and then white for witnessing. The rubber spray would fill/clog old holes, and the red-under-white would show through wherever new holes appeared. Think of it the same way you would a spray-on detection system for cracks in metal parts. With those, you spray on a penetrating oil dyed a bright color, wipe away excess, then spray on a white colored developer that contrasts with any dyed fluid that seeps back out of cracks. Same concept, but with contrasting paint colors.
And just imagine, you'd get the chance to yell "THAT'S A LOT OF DAMAGE!"
You might even get a FlexSeal sponsorship!
Could have just pinned a fresh piece of paper or cardboard over the target as well....
Making explosives (very often quite damn powerful and often with lethal outcomes) in Soviet Union and countries that once were occupied by it (I myself am Lithuanian and I know how popular this always was with kids and teenagers in ex Soviet countries) was a fascinating hobby, one that was not expensive, obviously very fascinating and “cool”, if you like.
My brother studied chemistry in Vilnius University for 4 years, but even in pre high school days he had interest in chemistry, especially with explosives. All my knowledge came from him even though he never would tell me how to make these things as I was much younger but when you are very keen to know how something is made you will find out.
Low level things that every elementary school kid starts with are those smoke “grenades” out of saltpeter (I think that’s what you people call amonium nitrate or sodium nitrate or sometimes we’d use potassium nitrate), dissolved in lukewarm water and sheets of newspapers dipped and doused in it left in the solution for some time to soak all of that nitrate in. Then those newspaper sheets would be dried, thightly rolled up cigar-like until you reach diameter of around 10cm or whatever your fantasy wants, then tightly wrap it up with celotape. Once lit up, it would provide amazing amount of smoke. Then another one would be old school gun powder (and all sorts of gunpowder like smokeless but it’s not as fun), also adding various metals to achieve certain color of fire or smoke. Then kids would move up to “grenades” :)))) - aluminium powder, potassium manganate (that one was always big problem due to it being sold in pharmacies in small amounts for big money for us kids back then) and sulphur (we would scout railroads where logistics freights would move fertiliser from Belorus or Russia towards Lithuania or Kaliningrad; some carriages would be full of raw sulphur rocks and we would simply pick up rocks of it on the tracks as I guess some carriages had holes in them), and a mixture of those chemicals would be wrapped tight in a newspaper with three dry stones inside to provide a spark once that “grenade” would hit a hard surface and detonate the mixture - this one was very intereting to make yet simole and very impressive. Me and my friends never had any trouble but few kids in my school har those “grenades” detonate in their hands when tightly wrapping that ball with the stones inside and due to applying too much pressure the stones would spark and ignite the whole thing.
Then later we’d come up with detonators and this concept seemed so cool to us and then it was when things escalated :). You know the most basic one, with a tiny bulb like indicator from cars, or a single Christmas light - we’d fill them with smokeless gunpowder or simply crushed match heads. We’d seal the bulb/light with candle wax or modeline (?), connect the bulb to two cables and use 9V battery - I know this is simole but it seemed so damn cool at the time and very impressive.
Later we’d learn how to make I guess rockets (small fireworks that go up making that whistle type sound) from sugar and amonium nitrate (I might confuse names in English for these materials).
What I am saying majority of male population from these countries know how to make these basic explosives due to the fact that we had to entertain ourselves with whatever we could, I mean us kids from working class families. This is why you have so many videos online of Eastern Europeans building motorcycles, buggies, cars in their garages (or at home - no joke), forging knives and other interesting things (I knew a guy who would forge knives in his balcony in a Soviet era appartament block). It is not because people here are smarter or something, it is because it’s one of most human-defining traits - curiosity. And also all this is often driven by boredom or lack of alternative things for youth in more socially deppressed areas.
P.S. It is illegal to make these and in many places it is illegal to even purchase certain chemicals , so please do not try to make any by your own, please check your local law and make sure you follow safety procedures if you insist making this stuff. While very interesting, I know many cases where people lost fingers or had facial injuries for life. I read cases of death even and on the news years ago I saw a story about a guy blowing himself to death by detonating an empty fire estinguisher filled with ANFO-like substance by using some very short detonator.
Be safe
Thanks for sharing
Ever visit grutas park? Still want to visit Vilnius before I die
@@eriktruchinskas3747 I have not actually, but I want to go there myself. I was born in 1991 so all the statues and all of the Soviet symbolism was removed by 1991 mostly. Last statues to be removed were in Vilnius (surprisingly) on Green Bridge in Downtown - the bridge was blown up twice during World War II, last time by retreating Wehrmacht. Once rebuilt in Stalinist architecture type it actually looked beatiful, it had four statues - two on each end. Statues were of Red Army soldiers, peasants, artists and scientists if I remember correct. These statues were the only ones that I and many other Lithuanians think should have been left there as it was aesthetically pleasing and without them the bridge looks not that good to be fair. They should have put up planks in Lithuanian, Russian and English beneath the each statue explaining the concept (that it represents the occupational and repressive force that occupied us for 50 years and brought so many sorrow and pain and to remember these statues are the only ones now left or something like that).
@@aivarasdarulis what do older people in lithuania say about russian rule after ww2? My great grandparents came to america in the early 1900s and my family that stayed was part of dekulakization. The letters my family saved were heartbreaking, they would write about how fortunate they were that they were allowed to work the land that they previously owned and keep one cow when before they had an entire stable of animals. My grandpa had to explain that it was their way of complaining, because if they outright complained and someone opened their letters and read them they would be dissapeared. It makes me laugh how many young americans are pro communism and pro soviet union even now with russia invading ukraine, saying that the soviet union was better
@@eriktruchinskas3747 My grandfather was an inform (communications man if you like that is how they were called by the Forest Brothers), this role was staffed by teenage girls, teenage males and young women due to them not being allowed to join armed units. They would all carry a Nogant revolver and would pass info about NKVD/MGB and Red Army+collaborators in the area, collect food and make stashes of food, clothing and weaponry for the fighting men. My grandfather had an incident with a German grenade that he found in the trenches (there were very many weapons in Lithuania and all were collected by locals in 1944-1945 and hidden just in case and it proved to be very useful as it all helped us to fight the mongols up until 1960 in some areas though most fighting stopped by 1955). His cousing, Alfonsas Valusis callsign Jokeris/Jovaras was an armed unit commander and sadly got killed when surrounded by MGB unit in the forest in Ukmerge district in first half of 1947 - I have his picture with DP-27 on my wall in my room.
My great grandfather was interwar period Lithuanian Army leutenant and fought the Bolsheviks but mainly Poles also by Vilnius-Ukmerge districts in 1920. He received 10 acres of land that President Smetona promised every volunteer that joined the Army to fight the invaders. He built a house and a farm with his own hands with help from the villagers as it was and still is the unwritten rule in our villages to help each other with building houses and harvesting crops. In my childhood I would go to spend summers in Ukmerge disctrict and we would go to collect hay for cows for winter and collect potato harvest - the whole village would go to help each other. Anyways, my great grandfather also suffered from collectivisation and all that was taken away. Thank God though we did not lose connection with our land and with talent to work it like Russians and other USSR nations did (with exclusion of Central and West Ukrainians), even our Communists like Sneckus were closet Nationalists (still they deserve to burn in Hell for eternity) and this is the reason why Lithuania is 81% ethnic Lithuania and only 6% is Russian (the rest are Poles and Belorussians and Ukrainians that live here for centuries) when in Estonia and Latvia ethnic cleansing and replacement was so bad that there the population of Soviet people (I mean not Russians as Russians here we call those that lived here prior to occupation - for centuries there was small Russian minority; Soviet people are those that were brought in to replace locals during occupation). It is a massive problem for Latvians especially and for Estonians. Russians there are very anti local population, absolutely do not integrate and drag the countries down. We Lithuanians are very lucky we managed to fully integrate Russians even though they have schools for Russians where every subject is thaught in Russian and they learn Russian language daily and so on. This brings no instability and no tension between the people. My girlfriend went to Polish school and her parents are Polish+Russian and there is no problem at all.
Almost everyone to nearly absolutely everyone considers USSR era as occupational era, no one is nostalgic about that time unlike in the rest of ex-USSR countries (exception being Latvia and Estonia). Everyone considers Forest Brothers as ultimate heroes. Most people actually even see The Third Reich as much, much, much lesser evil or not evil at all but the only country to actually do something with matching interests and help and not only with words - even though no one even back then held illusions that they are also occupyiers. It is just the Germans didn't do bad things to us Lithuanians and most of bad things that happened to the Jews was being hid from the public. And also, most Communist collaborators in 1940 when Soviets came and started to rely heavy on Jews that we accepted here in Lithuania since Middle Ages to protect them from persecution in Western and Eastern Europe and they betrayed us in such a horrible way. No one mentions that nowadays due to political correctness but all the archives are available online (in Lithuanian and Russian) and Jews here had distinctive names and surnames, so please believe me that faaaaaar from every Jew was not innocent from the ones that got executed - mind you it was a war time and no one plays with traitors.
Sadly along with them some number of innocent Jews got killed and that is a tragedy. Also no one is talking about how Lithuanians risked the lives of their entire family and village to help the innocent Jews by hiding them, feeding them and helping them to evade the Germans and Lithuanian SD.
You had me at "the Army ruined all kinds of stuff". Me too brother, me too.
I can attest to this as well, however, the Army was instrumental in showing me the gloriousness of hot sauce. In 3rd ID, Wurzburg, Germany, it was Trappey's Bull.
Thanks for the great video. Speaking of homemade explosive ordinance, back in the mid 1960's when I was a young boy, my older brother and I would cut off the heads from a bunch of book matches and stuff the heads into an old glass Christmas tree bulb ornament. We'd then put some tape over the opening, poke a small hole in the tape just big enough to jam in the fuse we'd pulled out of a typical firecracker. In an open deserted field, we'd light the fuse and toss them as fast, and as far as we could throw them. They made quite the bang.😅 I wonder if that's why I joined the Army right out of high school?😂
And speaking of the Army, one of my first and favorite moments was, while in basic training, when the drill sergeants taught us how to throw live grenades. They also taught us how to survive one thrown at us. Fortunately, I never had to find out if their tactic would work. The tactic was to throw yourself to the ground head facing the grenade about to explode and pulling your arms in as close to your sides as possible. The idea was that you had your helmet on your head, and it would take the hits from any shrapnel and also protect you from the explosive compression effects.
At the grenade range, they also took us to a visual display of the explosive pattern of a grenade to show us that with just a meter or two distance from the explosion that we could survive if we followed their instructions. The visual display was a series of concentric circles made from a khaki colored tarp that was approximately 4 meters high, and beginning approximately 3 meters from the explosion's center point and then every 5 meters out to about 30 meters. They had set up tarp circles, exploded a grenade, and then circled in red each and every hole the grenade's shrapnel made. It was clear from the shrapnel pattern that got higher the further you were from the center that it was possible to survive a grenade, even at 2 - 3 meters, if you were quick enough to get on the ground and in position before the grenade went off.
The reason I brought this up was that you guys could create the same kind of visual display to show your audience the shrapnel effects of your "Fanta" grenade or a real grenade for that matter, and maybe even a series of even larger IED explosions until it's evident that survival is no longer an option at 2 - 3 meters or even 30 meters. Just a thought.🤷🏼
Ft Jackson SC?
I used to know the "kiII radius" of different ordinances but especially from hand grenade or 40 mm up to the 8-inch howitzer shells that hadn't been retired yet. Different fuses at different explosive heights per artillery type too makes a big difference and the shell type. Old age I guess, lofl.
Thanks for the Video they are always great. Genuinely appreciate the time you guys put into them!
I do enjoy the humor, especially mixed with the serious nature of safety and showing the chaotic destruction that comes with explosive devices.
Much appreciated.
This is the video we needed 🇺🇸
"don't try this at home". sound like a dare.
One day it will come to you, Murican. ☝️🤓
how did ythey put the grenade in the fanta bottle ?
This was a fun one to test minus the brutal heat. That didn't help.
What are some other video projects you would like us to do?
Is it possible to make a small MIRV in this style? Like a miniature cluster munition? I would imagine 3 mini frag grenades on a string attached to the lid, on the outside, and a small charge inside the bottle that will send the frags in different directions, without their pins
More completely overpowered explosive devices. I like everything that makes a big boooom haha
You guys should make a rc car bomb like a german goliath
The clamore at the bulletproof glass from "Nobody".
Maybe the water mines used by the Continental Army? Hell, one thing that might be interesting is going through old manuscripts from the earliest days of gunpowder and making some of the designs present. One that definitely comes to mind is the torpedoes, namely the designs of Hasan al-Rammah, who made a self-propelled device for sinking boats.
The buzzing of the drone during the explosions really adds to the authenticity of the tests
This shouldn't be allowed on RUclips! I had no idea Fanta sold such dangerous products! I'm calling the RCPM, they'll know what to do.
So much for our trip to Quebec this summer. Lol
@@OrdnanceLab all jokes aside, apparently the Quebec police are pricks though. I wouldn’t be surprised if they gave you guys a hard time on stuff you did legally in the US.

If you have a valid firearms license (PAL or RPAL) you are exempt from having to get a permit for the armour. Though that rule is province specific b/c armour is regulated provincially not federally so in BC and Alberta it’s going to be different then say Quebec or Nova Scotia
You ever seen a bomb as big as a 2-liter?
you could only fanta-size.
Aaaah I see what you did there. Lol
Fanta-sizing with tiny balls, too
I still love that someone called the RCMP like what hte hell are our Mounties going to do about an American blowing up stuff with a license? I mean yeah maybe they might let the FBI, ATF or police in your area know about this and then they'll find out that Oh yeah, buddies licensed, he's good.
Still confused about the rcmp thing was it just someone trolling or were they serious?, guess we will never know.
Also the rcmp kinda useless, can’t even get anything done here in Canada.

I'd still love to see you guys do some stuff with thermites, namely copper thermite and the very angry Thermate. To my knoweldge, thermite reactions don't produce much gas but in the case of quickly reacting thermites such as copper thermite, it can still blow stuff up. Exotic thermites are always fun anyways.
They are pretty lame when you can get all the high explosives you want
I would also like to see stuff like this.
@@jacobkudrowich but you can find video of traditional explosives everywhere. There's not as much stuff on thermites.
Thermites are interesting when you mix them with regular high-gas explosives like TNT or HMX. Especially if the thermite is in near nano scale particle size. The added heat causes the gasses to expand even more. Especially good for stuffing holes drilled deep into concrete.
@@trulyinfamous Bunch of videos on thermites on the science/chemistry side of this place. Explosions & Fire iirc did a series on different types.

When I did drug interdiction with the DEA, I disarmed IED’s of mason jars filled with screws, nuts, bolts, broken glass, with hand grenades as the blasting agent.

@@frankdesanta6216 I’m sorry, did I make a funny comment about what I did? If it hadn’t been for my experience, there would have been a ton of body bags that would have been filled that day, including mine. So save the wise cracks for someone at the bar. Better yet, seek life elsewhere.
@@roberthamm9304 chill man it was just a joke
@@frankdesanta6216 yeah, well, jokes don’t prevent body bags from being filled. I’ve lost enough brothers in uniform over the years, and I’m tired of people making jokes at their expense.
The improvised rpg7 rounds are more impressive and have good range and accuracy,
That's the great thing about a front loaded rocket with separate motor you can improvise rounds with a mortar she'll or any large container like a empty fire extinguisher or anything else and fit a detonator up front,
It won't be long before a light guidance package is fielded for the rpg7 making good use of the many different types of round
I can see exactly why the Fanta grenade is good for trench warfare. You don’t need to throw if very far if you are trying to clear a bunker close quarters full of troops wearing body armor you are going to want the biggest payload. Run up, chuck it into the hole and then dive away.
Dropped from a drone as well.
it weighs like seven pounds lol no one is carrying that shit around.
Probably works great with drones or tripwires though
They are purely meant to be dropped by a drone.
It’s gotta be a fairly large (expensive) drone to carry that much weight. I’ve seen those huge ones before.

Everyone's jaw dropped witnessing the effect of that type of weapon. Thanks for educating the public on what soldiers and civilians are living through in a combat zone...

Honestly they have a few reasons for not doing any of that stuff anymore which it'd take to long to explain.

A Claymore is not an IED.
Always been curious about BP nades from the 17th century, as well as the early WW1 ones with BP filler. Would be interesting to compare frag capability compared to modern filler
According to a website (inert ord I believe) that studied grenades and other ordnance from ww1-2 a kugelgrenade (BP/Perchlorate) fragment would penetrate 2 inches of pine at 10 meters.
A French 6 inch howitzer from the napoleon era (made in 1765) had a lethal area of 25 yards with a basic non shrapnel BP shell. Not a nade but I know howitzer shells were improvised as such during the civil war (not this large probably lol)
@@mattfitzgerald6067 thanks for your reply!
@@BrochachoEnchilada your welcome. I think the best place to check for BP filled weapons at their peak would be Franco Prussian war. Breech loaded Krupp guns with BP loads were devastating to the French.

I called the Dudley Do-Right and he verified it's OK for you to blow things up if you put it on RUclips.
Dudley said so? Well, we should be good then.
I actually had a Russian F1 go off about 4 feet from my left foot in Fallujah. Peppered me up a good amount but luckily didn't hit anything vital and didn't disconnect anything but my pinky toe. Did have a hitch-hiker in my knee for about a decade though. From what my buddies told me the casing of the grenade just kinda ruptured instead of fully shredding into shrapnel and that's definitely what made it survivable.
But I've also seen an F1 instantly flip people's life switch. You just never know.
Hi Jake! Internet experts annoy me to death. As much as I would like to speculate in the comments section as to what a Fanta Bomb is made of, I just can't ethically nominate a slew of internet experts for Darwin Awards. I am no expert but I have a little experience with making things that go boom from common items fireworks etc. It was a wonder that my BFF and I didn't end up being crippled, a casualty, or receiving a Darwin award as curious teenagers armed with a little knowledge. All this to say, there are those of us who appreciate both your professionalism and your dedication to safety first. 👍 You all rock.
friends of mine did something similar with a ice cream tub, a steel soap dish, a pound of PE4 and detonating kit, and a couple cups worth of 8mm steel ball bearings. the battle damage assessment of their creation was "oh, so thats what it looks like when a rat rapes a hippo...."
Edit: forgot to mention. Device was fabricated with ice cream tub. Soap dish packed with PE4, stuck to the bottom of the plastic tub with some tape so the back of soap dish was touching the plastic of the tub on the inside. Basically the same as a blast focusing plate in a claymore mine. Then filled with steel balls. Wrapped in a bit of tape. Then was burried with the back of the tub in to a small hole dug in the side of a verge on a road, (front towards enemy facing the road)
damn
From what I've heard, the dish would be formed into a shaped charge
So basically a makeshift claymore,still highly amusing description.
@@luislongoria6621 the explosive was formed into the front of the dish, so while it would have been punted back into the hole it was buried in, the main function was to funnel the force into the pound or so of ball bearings to push them forward, will say it left a nice crater in the verge that it was installed in. but we didnt bother digging it out to see what happened to the component parts, though did find pellets embedded well into trees on the opposite side of the road.
@@tonydanhs2371 exactly correct. cos sometimes you just have to make do with what you have got, not what you wish you had. to use a quote my buddy likes "you piss with the dick you have, not the one you envy"
The Provo’s used something similar in their use of “coffee jar bombs” which were essentially large hand grenades.
Sure missed your guys videos! Glad to see your back!
Great video as always! Struggled to remember your channels name, hasn’t popped up in awhile, thought you might have angered the YT gods and then Shazam, there it was.
perfect for an area denial booby trapp but with a good old md-5m instant detonator instead of a nade fuse, or even better use it as a drone drop with an uzrgm f1/rgd5 grenade fuse, figure out a descent drone height for it to go off at around 1.5 meters from the ground, on the other hand primers in the uzrgm fuses are really loud so it would definitely alert whoever its being dropped on.
Speaking of cloning, here's a video suggestion: Can you replicate the M48 HE shell from the Sherman? The "Tall Tanker Man" stated it was a very effective HE round during WW2 and I'm curious to see how effective it was
I second this
You guys should do similar tests with some ballistics gel. Maybe even get some dummy labs torsos if you could
Ive seen a ton of videos where drones drop the 30mm VOG-17 grenade rounds next to combatants. Often it looks like a minor explosion and I’m just wondering how much damage one of these could do. Some ballistic gel blocks next to one of these grenade rounds would be an awesome video.
The dummy from the trench with the body armour is still alive, but he’s not having any more kids.
Can we have some 2mm sheet metal next to those grenades in the future?
As an American, if I have any concerns about this, I will be sure to report them to the RCMP, & definitely not the FBI or ATF.
😊
I wonder what the frag pattern would look like for a 2' long piece of 1" PVC pipe with either a couple strands of detcord or a noodle of serious putty inside, centered and held in place with BB fill, and detonated by impact (obviously not yours, electric all the way) on the nose and ensured of that attitude by fins on the rear. A spicy lawn dart, basically... something perfect to drop from a drone.
I would bet that the vertical dispersion is quite a lot more as the shock front travels up the length of the tube, giving the shrapnel a little more up movement.... maybe. Or it could be that the last interacted shock front pushes things downwards as it passes the individual particle. Definitely testworthy.
i recently been charged with making my own ordnance i was taught from a Russian. i had 20 7.62 rounds tapped together will all the tips taking off and filled with buckshot and extra gunpowder then i tapped the tips to the primer throw and have a good day
The detonation at 10:17 sounded straight out of a movie
Also maybe something for a video idea here, get a few ballistic dummy labs head and torso dummies, have one with armor, one without at maybe 10 meters distance from a few different bombs, whether frag grenades or pipebombs, all up to you, no matter what you use i think it would be an interesting video
Also saw a video with extinguishers stuffed with explosives and an impact fuse strapped to RPG boosters. More upcoming videos?
That was a crazy video
Thank you for the Father’s Day gift! Miss you guy’s blowing stuff up!
Absolutely loving the background music, you guys have a good taste.
we are seeing a LOT of drone related work on a smaller scale (smaller commercial FPV drones), which is relatively new to combat. that combining with trench warfare is pretty wild though
i just subscribed... and as soon as i did the fbi showed up and fingerprinted me...
A video idea here
Mybe a video on the effects of different amounts of explosive or amount of fragmentation material on trenches
Another is the effects of air burst munitions (a simple way of imitating it might be a tall ass pole with a grenade or another Fanta bomb on top of it
One thing that’s good to know is that even handgun rated body armor will be useful because it can stop grenade fragments. Getting hit with shrapnel also seems much more likely than getting shot as well.
I have contacted the RCMP, they are very concerned with what you are doing, they have 2 Mounties loading up in Toronto with supplies now and you can expect to see them down there in Texas in about 3 weeks.
As a Houstonian, I can confirm the sweat seen in this video is real...our nice, cool, summer....
I second bulletsafe. I wore it when I was doing security at a high school. It was okay. It fit correctly, but not super comfy.
I work at a PD now and they issue us 1000$ armor that’s a lot more comfortable but if you work security or anything like that it’s the best bang for your buck imo.
Finally the long awaited beverage video. I don’t even use my YT ad blocker for this channel.
I would love to see an improvised LAWS rocket. It seems to me it might be quite doable via black powder or pyrodex or similar. Rockets have been a part of warfare for over a thousand years. Even during the American Revolution.
Keep up the cool vids fellows. 👍
LAW not LAWS.

We are moving closer to grabbing the pointy sticks
On another note, have you ever read the slave contract that Einstein had his wife sign?
He was cheating on her & their kid & she DIDN'T want to become a single mother.
Einstein manipulated her into signing the contract that made her his legal slave. It's disturbing the things he placed in there.
Einstein also had a special needs kid which he left in a mental institution known for its abusive ways & Einstein wouldn't even send his own son a nickel to help with his expenses.
In other words Einstein was a womanizing, cheap, manipulative, POS SCUMBAG.
The woman he left his wife & special needs son for?
HIS COUSIN.
That's a nice story, why don't you back it up with a

@@TtheWhimsical Go look it up genius.
There's a minion sources for this.
You can read the fuckin contract in Einstein's own ACTUAL contract.

"Turns Out Einstein Was A Cold-Hearted Misogynist Who Attempted To Control His Wife’s Every Move"
Einstein began cheating on Marić almost immediately - and without remorse
With their marriage on the rocks, Einstein drafted up a ridiculous list of demands for Marić
The rules included demands that Marić act as his servant
the list decreed that Marić “renounce all personal relations” with her husband
1. my sitting at home with you;
2. my going out or traveling with you.”
The demands made clear that Marić should expect no intimacy from Einstein
“2. you will stop talking to me if I request it;
3. you will leave my bedroom or study immediately without protest if I request it.”
Unbelievably, Marić agreed to the demands for the sake of the children
@ClickClack_Bam that has anything to do with the quote or the video how? If you just want to run around crying about how famous or great people also did bad things go somewhere else. All people are shit on some level and you just haven't learned or dont care about the bad things done by people you like.
The phantom Fanta is probably my favorite homemade munition from the whole war. You guys should test the fire hydrant rpg next.
I think one of the most interesting things from this is how effective these improvised ordinances are
And that people are remarkably resourceful when it comes to defending their home
The Polish resistance made bombs like these already 80 years ago, except they didn't have plastic bottles, of course.
@@francisdec1615 so they got added pokey stuff when the boom happened because they had metal bits and glass shards.
I have to wonder if that Fanta grenade was designed to be used as a slightly larger more powerful drone munition. They had to cannibalize an actual grenade to make it but both sides have been dropping hand grenades from commercial drones for a good while now.
its better beacuse its basically a landmine. Landmines are better than grenades because of the increased shrapnel.
@@neglectfulsausage7689 it's definitely still a grenade albeit an improvised one. It's also noticeably bigger with a bigger explosive payload and more material to send zipping out at high velocity. Mines actually vary in size greatly, some are much larger than a grenade while some are about the size and fragmentation of a can of Vienna sausages like the M14 "toe popper" anti-personnel mine that also produces almost no frag (except for the shower of foot bones that go flying).
I saw a video of a drone drop where the grenade landed next to a Russian soldier. He seemed totally fine at first, and he probably thought he was too, but when he tried to stand up his leg bent SIDEWAYS and gave out under him. I cringed so hard, evidently the fragmentation shattered his leg bones. Sadly for him instead of throwing his rifle away and trying to surrender, he turned it on himself. Point is, grenades are WEIRD just like he said. Sometimes they don't do anything, sometimes they obliterate people. I heard of a local Marine who jumped on an F1 grenade to save his other soldiers, and he survived! Severely wounded yes, but survived!
I'm no expert in explosives or chemistry, but I do know that certain backyard weeds make a highly effective substitute for shrapnel.
Y'all should tack poster board over the plywood targets before each detonation-- cheap and accurate way to get totally separate impact frag points for each type of explosive detto
You guys HAVE to tell the entire story of who called the RCMP and what happened with it, like what the dude said, whether the RCMP ever tried to contact you and what they said. If you guys did that already in a previous video or elsewhere, please point me to it! I've heard you mention it before more than once but that's a story that needs to be shared and laughed at by all. Also, what was the explosive charge you used in these fanta grenades?
Yeah.... WTF does the RCMP have to do with Ord Lab? Unless they are right on the Can/USA border. ????
Probably tried to stop them from teaching Canadians anything not Castro Jr approved.
@@swright5690 they're in texas...some idiot from canada apparently was offended at what they saw in their videos so they reported them...to the RCMP. that's all i know, i want the whole story cause it sounds hilarious.
Can you try out the 'lay on your stomach with the feet towards the grenade' one please?
Especially with typically issued footwear to see if that helps.
@@rucker69 and then with his legs apart to see how much damage it will do to your balls 😅💣
Could you try and test a 'grenade' made with black powder?
Test how far it would throw metal bbs or such.
I’m so glad as a og to see this vid blow up you deserve it after the things that happened
Can't believe I'm gunna say it.....but I kinda missed youz guyz.....
Awwwww thanks man!
Well then aim better next time! Smh.....
Those who first made this bomb chose a very fitting soda (it was created in Nazi Germany).
It would be nice to see estimated cost of such improvised munutions
So many people think it's Mexican in origin, which is rather funny.
@@OrdnanceLab That Very Special Socialist was a great fan of Coca Cola and Fanta was produced from leftovers once they ran out of the original syrup.
Ironic that it's being used against nazis.
Look, neither are nsdap... they are both corrupt eastern european nations.
Still drinking the Putin Pee, are we?
May attempt to explain why Ukrainians using that kind of explosives and other weapon's that was improvised crafted.
Ukraine has to deal with forces that outmatches it by quantity by a lot. Before the invasion we had own arsenals that were mostly same soviet stuff that russia had, cause as you told, ussr produced lots of those.
Also after we got help from our allies that gave more modern equipment. And of course we use a lot of those that we gain from fleeing russians.
Plus here we have a lot of volunteer movement, and everyone helps with what they can. Some just regularly donate money, some are actively buying equipment and stuff that is needed and may come in handy, some are making things like trench candles, masking nets and so on. And there's a lot of hobbyist and engineers that make drones for our army, like those infamous killer drones (fpv drones with warhead from RPG or adapted payload drop systems for mavics and other) so making scout drones that gather info and help a lot. And yes, some of them are talented enough to make improvised explosives.
The reason why our army uses all of that is very simple. If that s**t is good enough to explode and kill invaders and will help protect our land - than we take it. Either it be old ussr crap, modern equipment, or tinkered devices of suspicious origin. That's the war for our survival, so all methods are good
This is like the updated Molotov cocktail. That’s the 1st thing I thought of when I saw the title & thumbnail.
spicey soda
Further proof that soda is bad for you
First country to devise a grenade that detonates 3ft off the ground when thrown will have a massive advantage. Or shaped to land a certain way and add an upward angle. The ground absorbs a lot of blast and fragments
wouldnt really be too hard. just need to make a ball shape thats prone to bouncing and a 1/4 second fuse that ignites on impact. likely already exists somewhere
What you are asking for sort of already exists.
40mm programmable air bursting ammunition for grenade machine guns.
They are designed to explode over trenches or just behind walls that the enemy is using for cover.
Sweden has a design. The grenade has spring loaded prongs that prop up the grenade body and a lift charge to send it upwards.
They already do stuff like that(its not perfect) they arm the grenade when they drop it and they know at what altitude they should drop the grenade in order for it to burst in the air
isnt that the bouncing betty if it was a real thing?
yall continue to impress, great videos!
It looks like steel ball bearings.. that's what I'm assuming too since most frag elements or matrix are steel/tungsten bearings or tessellated wire if not a frangible container... how does lead frag react with an HE detonation? Does it just deform or disintegrate?
How does Fanta feel about the bottles being used for this? 😆
used by nazi's they are very happy
Fanta-stic?
I dropped a smoke bomb into a ground squirrel hole this morning. Smelled like victory.
“… and burnt ground-squirrel…”
it would have been interesting to show results from an "air blast", maybe mounting the munitions on a 1 or 2,5 meter stick...?

Can you do a stuffed tannerite dog sometime for the meme lol
I second this!
It was nitrogen based with a impact detonator made from rifle round. I know because I sent them the information.
👀
Perhaps if there was a string instead of the yellow battery wire for standard blasting caps
"It's war baby, what're you gonna do about it?" That so needs to be on a T shirt or better yet, a moral patch. 😂👍
It's cheap, effective, and made with readily available materials. You can make a clone of I with black powder or Tannerite.
As a kid, we made them with a PVC pipe filled with black powder and a cardboard roll from toilet paper outside.
The trick was to fill the void between the cardboard and the PCV pipe with all kinds of shrapnel. :)
Use metal instead of pvc and sharpnel is already included.
@@brianfitch5469 Then one would have to fabricate it. A pipe bursts into what...2 or 3 pieces? That's the reason why an M2 grenade looks like a pineapple. ;)
I know you can just go out and buy TNT, but will you try nitrating toluene based paint thinner to make TNT? It would be very interesting to see the results of a DIY procedure like this, also the process is really simple just by using a nitrating bath made with concentrated sulfuric and nitric acid also adding the needed catalytic elements, most if not all of which can be found in catalytic converters, to catalyse the second and third part of the nitration in adding the second and third nitrate groups to the toluene molecules.🤔🤫 This is not a guide and untrained people shouldn't attempt the process outlined in the above comment as the process can be dangerous and result in extreme physical harm from the hot acid bath and unstable nature of hot TNT in the presence of catalytic elements, the risk of spontaneous explosion is quite high without proper safety precautions.
MNT and DNT are extremely nasty sensitive. MNT is with nitric and sulfuric acid, then it's nitrated again with nitric and oleum forming DNT, and then nitrated again with oleum to TNT.
I mean I'm not an expert, but I thought the third nitration in particular was pretty difficult to achieve without things going very wrong.
(I've never been silly enough to try this stuff myself, since I understand very clearly that I don't have the skills or the equipment to do it safely)
@@patheddles4004 yes it is actually very difficult to achieve at all without the proper conditions and even with those conditions the product may become unstable and self detonate
Sounds like the recipe for TATP, which produces a strong smell of chlorine. Also explains where all the catalytic converters are going
@@luislongoria6621It’s not even remotely similar
I'm pretty sure there is a reason they don't just have pre fragmented payload in a weak housing like a plastic bottle for efficiency and ease of production
But I can't think of the reason because I am not knowledgeable on the subject.
Any help understanding would be appreciated.
If dig short pvc pipes in the ground at specific distances . You could set up much easier. Use plastic mirrors in a periscope for close up video without damaging cameras.
This guy would have been a technical consultant for Road Runner cartoons. Wile E. Coyote would have ordered all his Acme products from his subsidiaries.
Awesome video on improvised explosive devices. I'd really like to see how effective an InstaPot pressure cooker bomb could be. Those things are really cool.
This soda bottle bomb reminds me of when I was a kid I would stick cherry bombs or M80s inside glass coke bottles or smaller glass bottles, light them up and watch them blow up from far. Even at 30yds some shrapnel would still reach you. I was doing this with my friends once and we found some of small broken square hole bricks, we put an m80 inside one and ran away like 30 yards. A piece hit one of my friends in the leg and he actually bled a bit from the shrapnel. And he was wearing a pair of thick jeans as well.
Great Stuff spray insulation works pretty good when applied on the outside of a canister. It might work well inside the canister as well but I’ve never tried it.
I would like to see this same test but instead of plastic explosive, I would like to see what happens when the explosive is also "improvised" like using "Tannerite" or maybe fertilizer and diesel fuel type stuff. I mean, if you're out of grenades you may also be out of a ready made explosive.
one thing you see when the grenade goes off is the big difference between real high-ex and cinema's fire spectacular grenades. of course I don't blame films, gotta have a safe set so a neat little fireball to film in slowmow while an air piston launches a stunt man does great, and everybody loves fire.
Definitely one of those more dangerous videos ive watched and ive watched microwaving gernades. Witch turned out to be somewhat safe btw. But boy the metal balls geeze.
It's something someone knew how to make and it works amazingly so it was adopted by the masses. Simple
Lol, I am loving your vocabulary!
Also: Very nice work!
