Best comment of 2021! Amazingly US scientists had the idea of using controlled nuclear explosions as a form of propulsion for space travel. Since it's not a good idea to test the idea with actual nuclear explosions they used a common explosive instead. If they had used the real stuff I wonder if it would have ended the same as this test? 😆
“Private, have you heard anything?” “Yes, comrade officer. Many explosions and flying objects.” “Private, I meant NATO, not those crazy Finns playing with explosives.
"Despite initial setbacks, the heads of the Finnish Space Program remain optimistic." You guys forgot to roll the windows up. Now wonder it didn't work.
Having had training as a missile electrician on Titan II missiles, and having reviewed movies of multiple launch failures in the US space and missile programs, I feel well qualified to render my analysis of your launch. After reviewing the footage you have from multiple angles, it is clear to me that your first stage booster dyanamite/anfo was misaligned with the actual space vehicle itself. This resulted in the vehicle receiving a shearing side blast from the booster instead of a direct shove from beneath. Also, pallets are not an acceptable staging material. Locating them between the first stage booster and the launch vehicle itself resulted in a propagation zone that allowed the first stage to catastrophically fragment before the force of it's thrust interacted with the launch vehicle. Just my not-so-humble opinion. Your mileage (kilometerage??) may vary.
these dudes are literally doing things that i would have dreamed about as a little kid in real life and its amazing. These dudes are like a bunch of kids with unlimited access to high explosives while being extremely safe about it and its the best thing ever
@@ForeignEx0tics Well, those Finns are, but like every nationality; they are a diverse group of individuals. A good deal of the Finnish people I've met were not quite like these guys. However, most of them were laid-back and hard-working.
I imagine taking a walk in a finnish forest and every now and then I hear somebody counting down in finish. Then something in the forest explodes and it's raining trees, manequins, car parts, oobleck, anvils and other random stuff.

Hi! I just get to see your knowledge base show by chance. My first was about how much pressure can the diver watch stand. Surprisingly you guys go even to the extreme of popping the glass. Impressive yes. And now this. Honestly you guys should be on the international science channel. Apart from introducing or applying science, you guys make it simple, enjoyable & funny too. Well done guys!!! Better then some Americans channel that shown on TV with purpose on just making money. Worth to see you guys. Well done!!!
@@cardboardboxification, did the "rocket" reach space? Then dynamite DIDN'T do its job . . . . Once again: rocket SCIENCE is EASY: rocket ENGINEERING is HARD. And, no, engineers aren't always right: I used to work with a bunch of CIVIL engineers (who may have been engineers, but certainly WEREN'T civil!).
Finland may be a lot of good things. But they are definitely not a free people. They are at least lacking one key freedom. They lack freedom of privacy. And you think your privacy is being violated? Finnish people have their financials made public once a year. If that happened here in the U.S. I would revolt against our government.
Honestly I was thinking just that. I highly doubt you would be allowed to do anything like this in the states or Canada, or most countries really. I would love to live where I can just do stuff like this without getting into any kind of trouble.
That was the best one ever. I like the part showing the space taxi in orbit, that was funny. The pepperonis were a little burnt, but that's OK. at least the pizza was hot when it arrived.
I couldnt stop laughing that was great. Lauri saying the 70kg would give a gentle push. The wooden pallet launch base was a nice touch :) great little animation after the explosion...launch. At least you create a new Finish tourist site, anew meteor crater :)
Lauri, you should have worn your PBS SpaceTime shirt for this one. 50kg to the moon, 70kg to the planets. To the Andromeda Galaxy in 7 days. LOLOL love it!!
to launch 500Kg of material (like car) into space you will need at least 6.8 tons of dynamite due to my calculations. Because if you want to launch something into space it has to have 11.2 Km/s. With this speed a mass with one ton will have a Energy of 3.1*10^10 J and since TNT has a Energy density of 4.6MJ/Kg you will need to have at least 6.8 Tons to get this speed. But with 70Kg of TNT it should fly like 64 Km high if the energy would have been transferred well and if there wouldnt be any air. (Epot=m*g*h => h=Epot/m*g=(70Kg*4,6*10^6J/Kg)/(500Kg*9.81m/(s^2))=64Km
An idea for a video I would really like to see: How well can you paint a room by sticking an explosive in a bucket of paint at center height and making it go off?
NASA Rocket Science: We will take this huge amount of energy and release it at a controlled rate over a period of time Finnish Guys Science: We will take this huge amount of energy and release it all at once! - but it's ok we have some wooden pallets and mud to distribute it evenly over the back end of a car.
I believe there actually is a proposed rocket design which blows up nuclear bombs against a pusher plate. No joke. These Finns are just way ahead of their time. They don't sit around debating possibilities. They DO.
@@ThunderbirdAnthares And the pusher plate has massive springs to absorb the shock, yeah. Sadly, nuclear bombs are still the most mass-efficient method we know of for producing energy. Non-exploding-types of nuclear engines do exist, however - usually they are using the heat of the nuclear reaction to heat up a working (ionizable, if possible!) fluid - so far, just like a nuclear reactor for a power plant... - into super hot gas or plasma, whereupon it then operates like a regular rocket engine in terms of converting that hot gas into focused kinetic energy with a nozzle - with the addendum that if it is a plasma, you can use magnetic confinement for the heating chamber and nozzle, allowing you to exceed the melting temperature of any material, and so getting MUCH better performance from the temperature (because higher temperature equals more volume per mass, e.g. pressure, and higher exhaust velocity of that mass when fully expanded, meaning greater specific impulse)
Your projects are very entertaining, educational and extremely amusing. Cheers from Australia. We used to have access to big fire crackers when I was young and we made good use of them.
Quite the explosive video, with lots of Earth blowing skyward. This reminds me of some of the SpaceX Starship testing with some Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly events of recent times. A very odd construction using many rolls of Stainless Steel down in Boca Chica TX.
As someone who has lived in Finland for almost 40 years, I can say the Finnish tap water tastes funny... My grandfather still refuses to drink it and use bottled water even to make coffee...
Even though I knew total destruction is what would happen, I enjoyed every second. What you basically did was make a deep-buried IED, one of the worst kinds to encounter. I have personally seen the force of what you created here rip fully armored military vehicles to shreds. Good episode!
There is a myth that the USA actually beat the USSR in putting an object in orbit, but did so by accident when they were testing an underground nuclear bomb. They drilled a super deep hole and lowered the bomb into it then capped the whole thing off with a really heavy plug to try to contain the entire explosion. I believe they said the cap was 9000 tons but that might not be accurate, either way using the high speed photography of the day the plug only showed up in a single frame and the math says that it was moving way over escape velocity and that they may have actually sent that giant steel slug hurdling through space. Others say that it would have burnt up in the atmosphere from the friction but this sounds like a job for Beyond The Press Man to investigate and try to figure out. Scaled down of course.
@@KaedennYT That was actually what I used to make a mental calculation that "this wasn't going to work." Even if you say the manhole cover was the weight of the car, that nuke was 100,000x (roughly) the amount of explosive force. It probably was perfectly placed to be able to channel the force into it skywards, where our Finnish friends... not so much. Entertaining though! :)
Love this channel the Finns always make me happy blowing stuff up! Its therapy, BOOOM ya as usual we put wey too much explosives😂😂😂😂 then I go back to work 😁😀 Paljon kiitoksia hauskuudesta ja naurusta!
That was AWESOME! Well done! There was actually a plan in the 1950's to launch a rocket into space using the same principles, except they were going to place a NUCLEAR BOMB under the rocket! It is called Project Orion, they did do a test flight using dynamite as a propellant, and the rocket flew to about 30 - 40 metres.
Maybe the pizza was that smoking think spiraling off into the distance and then crashing down to earth? It appears to be slightly toasted just the way I like it😋 Yummy

Having had training as a missile electrician on Titan II missiles, and having reviewed movies of multiple launch failures in the US space and missile programs, I feel well qualified to render my analysis of your launch.

This resulted in the vehicle receiving a shearing side blast from the booster instead of a direct shove from beneath. Also, pallets are not an acceptable staging material. Locating them between the first stage booster and the launch vehicle itself resulted in a propagation zone that allowed the first stage to catastrophically fragment before the force of it's thrust interacted with the launch vehicle.

I am wondering why it is on the video. NO music needed.
At first, I thought we were going to miss Anni, then I heard the countdown. Hiya Anni.
I've met a surprising number of Fins in my life, and every one was exceptionally awesome. There must be something in the water up there.
ICE. 😂
@@WoodworkerDon well. ICE does not have much authority here but we've got the maahanmuuttovirasto.
As someone who has lived in Finland for almost 40 years, I can say the Finnish tap water tastes funny... My grandfather still refuses to drink it and use bottled water even to make coffee...
There is now - car shrapnel.
I just saw someone saying the fins had no. 1 ranking in education. This seems legit
I’d love to move to Finland 🇫🇮 and do crazy stuff with y’all. You have so much fun.
Can´t say how much I love Beyond the press.. You feel like a part of something big in every video. kiitos kaverit kaikesta
Even though I knew total destruction is what would happen, I enjoyed every second. What you basically did was make a deep-buried IED, one of the worst kinds to encounter. I have personally seen the force of what you created here rip fully armored military vehicles to shreds. Good episode!
Wile E. Coyote likes this! I think he will change supplier from ACME to BTP
Considering the results, I think he was the technical consultant. Since there was no anvil involved I don't believe he had full control.

Very underrated comment. No anvil or birdseed.
I LOVE the Finnish Space Program!
Loved the boosters lighting up before launch
There is a myth that the USA actually beat the USSR in putting an object in orbit, but did so by accident when they were testing an underground nuclear bomb. They drilled a super deep hole and lowered the bomb into it then capped the whole thing off with a really heavy plug to try to contain the entire explosion. I believe they said the cap was 9000 tons but that might not be accurate, either way using the high speed photography of the day the plug only showed up in a single frame and the math says that it was moving way over escape velocity and that they may have actually sent that giant steel slug hurdling through space. Others say that it would have burnt up in the atmosphere from the friction but this sounds like a job for Beyond The Press Man to investigate and try to figure out. Scaled down of course.
That they did send a piece of steal flying to space that way is true.
Don't remember if that was before the other rockets.
"Super Sonic Manhole Cover" I think it was named.
@@KaedennYT That was actually what I used to make a mental calculation that "this wasn't going to work." Even if you say the manhole cover was the weight of the car, that nuke was 100,000x (roughly) the amount of explosive force. It probably was perfectly placed to be able to channel the force into it skywards, where our Finnish friends... not so much. Entertaining though! :)
you mean scaled UP
Yeah it wouldnt have gone into orbit. Either it wouldve burned up or just kept going into deeper space
And THIS folks is why they have to keep Finland so far away from everyone else ...
😜💣
*sad scandiwegian noises* not far enough....
I would love to visit Finland someday....I hear the people are very awesome.
Finnish rocket surgeons have determined that the fault lies in not having enough dynamite.
Don't try this at home, do it at your friends house.
Love this channel the Finns always make me happy blowing stuff up! Its therapy, BOOOM ya as usual we put wey too much explosives😂😂😂😂 then I go back to work 😁😀 Paljon kiitoksia hauskuudesta ja naurusta!
And so Finland enters the space race. Putin is keeping an eye on you Lauri.
His first comment after launch: "I think something went wrong."
Wonder if ISS got sent a note to warn them something might fly past 😂
This is, and always will be, the best video on the web!
This is the kind of quality content I want to see! Keep up the good work everyone!! :)
That was AWESOME! Well done! There was actually a plan in the 1950's to launch a rocket into space using the same principles, except they were going to place a NUCLEAR BOMB under the rocket! It is called Project Orion, they did do a test flight using dynamite as a propellant, and the rocket flew to about 30 - 40 metres.
We will perfect it any day now 😂
Elon Musk has these teething problems guys, Dont give up, you'll get there.
All they need is more boom
@@thebrowns5337 If dynamite can't fix a problem with dynamite you need more dynamite
America: "We have the best space program!"
Finland:
I think the pizza is still edible, so it isn’t a complete failure
didn't found any :D
Extra crispy crust.. ;)
Hi cuz :-)
You can ask the guys at the ISS, it probably splattered on one of their windows
Maybe the pizza was that smoking think spiraling off into the distance and then crashing down to earth? It appears to be slightly toasted just the way I like it😋 Yummy
Fun fact, dynamite grows on tree in Finland thats why they have so much of it
I thought we were crazy in Texas. You guys are awesome!
Yeah, Texans seem a bit crazy to us Brits with your love of guns.
But fear not, these guys, our lovely, friendly close neighbours, make you look positively sane, boring, safe and rational !!!!!
