Ok to answer your question, there is no solid estimate but a rough estimate of copper used in the Porsche tiger is somewhere from 440-1100 pounds of copper (200-500 KG)
For what little it is worth, to my understanding the Krupp alloys used for the armor of a Tiger contained between 0.32% and 0.51% copper to protect against corrosion. I can't find exact numbers for the weight of a Tiger (P)'s armor but with most other Tigers it seems to clock in around half the total weight, so ~30t. That gives us about 124.5kg of copper in the armor alone. Add to that broadly 2km of copper wire for all the internals at average alloy density and thickness and you'd get probably (or rather, _maybe)_ a total around 130-135kg of copper used in armor and wiring. Someone greater than me can figure out the amount of copper in the engine, suspension, transmission and the turret traverse and such.
Well I talked to somebody that's very familiar with electric motors, he's an electrical engineer, and he estimated that the total copper amount would be around 950 for the electrical motor and all that. So add on the amount of copper in the armor and in the wiring and yeah you're coming up around 11 to 1200lb
1:25 Jim... Honestly, that's how it goes. Imagine being over a decade older than you are now, and 80 year old relatives still sit you at a table that isn't theirs. The "kids" table.
Actually hope they do more packs like this. Under 40$ with 2-3 tanks is a great idea and way better to start out a tree than buying a 70$ premium you have one maybe 2 lives with back ups
..... and in this episode we find out a lot of things from Stickboy and Jim's private life that would be better if we didn't know them. Man, I couldn't stop smiling the whole time Marry Christmas Bo and Friends!
8:25 "hot pot" is basically a meat stew but it has so much water in it that the broth doesn't coagulate. The meat is usually cooked with a lot of vegetables instead of only spices
19:22 I hate that I've watched so much anime at this point that I didn't even flinch when Bo said, "get over here right meow." It's just normal to me. Probably not good.
Hey bo, I've been following you for quite a time now, I figured I should say thank you as your vids got me smiling even when I was close to my lowest. So thank you, you and the crew are awesome people, thank you for bringing your energy on RUclips. I hope you and the crew will have a good 2025 !
Believe it or not, I was thinking this morning that a new Bo vid would be exactly what I wanted for Christmas - and hey, there it was. Thanks, and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Bo and Crew! Under 2 hours too! Hope things are going well, you get awsome gifts and have fun with your family! Also glad the running theme of Jim and goth girls is continuing XD.
Merry Christmas Bo, Stick, Jim, Sturmling, Zuit, Bear, and anyone else I've missed... you guys are always awesome. Im other news, i realised who Stick reminds me of today... Rizzo the Rat.
Merry Christmas. The Porsche Tiger probably contained 2070lbs of copper to construct. Unless it was a Ferdinand in which case the lack of turret saved some electronics and wiring. Fun Fact KwK 36 cannons had electric primers.
I'm with Stick on the shed. Some of those sheds are 2 story and are actually pretty NICE and somewhat big (for a simple shed). The whole idea of NEEDING a large house is relatively new. People used to be more outgoing and happier despite living in an actual stump.
@@vonshroom2068 Some Americans don't understand it either. We have a mix of housing styles where we have smaller more European-esk apartments/housing, and then just massive mansions for like 2 people to live in. Some of it is political, some of it is a 'display of wealth', most of it is just weird and unreasonable.
@@cDog8766 Eh, the weird thing about it is that you have all that floor space but zero room/privacy at the same time as its mostly open space with archways and no doors.
My two days of grocery shopping before Christmas Eve were actually chill, including the traffic. I could not find fresh or frozen cranberries, but I was able to get 18 pounds worth of meats at the butcher's and got everything else I needed at 4 other stores.
It is usually Christmas when I really appreciate the fact I have no friends or family within range of my home. The grocery shopping on Christmas eve was really kinda scary... I had a great Christmas day however and I always enjoy holidays anyway.
Ha, tiger king had a setup at our joke of a mall in texas city where they let kids play with tiger cubs lmao. I always thought it was a bit sketchy but then i remembered a guy at a trailer park in Hearne (near college station) that had leapards, a tiger and was building an enclosure to house a friggin gorilla.
Tell Jim it would only take 3 days of us drivers not working before society went Mad Max. I do like the idea of a week off. I'd get popcorn and watch the fall. 😂
I have deep intel on Stick’s tongue injury. He did indeed stick his tongue into a boiling substance. Her name was Large Marge and reports indicate that she was in charge.
Bo, I wish you a merry christmas and a lovely time with your friends, family and everyone close you. I hope you enjoy the holidays and you're next year will be succesful and less turbulent. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas Bo. I actually play these 3 vehicles quite a bit. Trying to unlock all the camos for them. To bad they don't have the ability to buy netting with ge or be able to spade it in modification menu
I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!
We did
To you as well hope your 2025 is better.
Merry Christmas Bo
Merry Christmas and that skin on your tiger the camo netting was beautiful
Merry Christmas Bo and gang. May the snail bring you lots of luck in the lootboxes

GJ
Well done friend
I second this as I found similar results
I've seen some actciles place the number as high as 2,070lbs
Too inaccurate, you have until the end of Boxing Day to improve!
Today on BTG: Bo's got a sock puppet, Stick's licking his hotpot and Jim's Christmas still doesn't include a goth girlfiend.
poor jim
Damn it I wanted to make this joke but with Bo becoming a furry cuz of the Tiger tiger lol

"You have to let it cool before you stick your tongue in it"
PHRASING!
Never change Bo...

Stickboy and Jim conspiring to make me cackle this Christmas! Have a good one all y'all, and here's to another year of TBLF shennanigans!
jim as someone that has experienced that family bs. they still do it long after you get a wife. it never ends.
Just wait until you get a divorce and everyone talks about how much they liked your ex and wish it had worked out, lol. Gosh, me too Aunt Karen!
Actually hope they do more packs like this. Under 40$ with 2-3 tanks is a great idea and way better to start out a tree than buying a 70$ premium you have one maybe 2 lives with back ups
yeah this is a great pack if you wanna grind a diffrent tech tree but don't wann go for top teir
Jim's new Trauma, Cousin Judy.... I think we all have that cousin......
Really love the cammo netting on the tiger makes it look more intimidating
4:46 There is at least one copper in a Porsche tiger
it's one porche tiger worth of copper aka 1 Ferd
Stick & Jim were in fine form this video. Merry Christmas Bo & Co!
..... and in this episode we find out a lot of things from Stickboy and Jim's private life that would be better if we didn't know them. Man, I couldn't stop smiling the whole time
Marry Christmas Bo and Friends!
Ah, Christmas cats. Just frolicking and playing outside where there's no snow.
Keep it up, Bo & Co!
“It’s over there”
“Are you sure?”
*gets shot*
Merry Chrismas Bo, Bos friends and community.
Happy holidays!
Great video. Merry Christmas everyone!
💜🎄

Jim if you really don't want cousin Judy asking about having a wife just say yes then list off all your waifus. That should work.
19:22 I hate that I've watched so much anime at this point that I didn't even flinch when Bo said, "get over here right meow." It's just normal to me. Probably not good.
The banter in this vid was peak.
Merry Christmas Bo and all of TBLF, thanks for the awesome year with many videos, and looking forward to 2025!
Hey bo, I've been following you for quite a time now, I figured I should say thank you as your vids got me smiling even when I was close to my lowest. So thank you, you and the crew are awesome people, thank you for bringing your energy on RUclips.

Merry Christmas Bo, TBLF and all who are part of this amazing community.
Merry Christmas Bo and the boys. Thanks for the presents you give us in every video you post. Keeps me laughing all year long. Appreciate you all.
Merry Christmas, fellas. Hope your day is as wonderful and enjoyable as you make your videos. As a trucker, I agree with Jim. We should try it.
Turns out stick was carrying around all his relatives on his sides
A Christmas Day video?! Thank you for the present Mr Bo and Merry christmas to all the folks involved with the BTG videos. 🎄
Hearing about Stickboy's cooking misadventures is the Christmas present I didn't know I needed.
The mombie apocalypse share was awesome. Merry Christmas guys, and thank you for all the content.
Merry Christmas Bo and Crew! Under 2 hours too! Hope things are going well, you get awsome gifts and have fun with your family! Also glad the running theme of Jim and goth girls is continuing XD.
Merry Christmas to you as well! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Merry Christmas Bo and Co. Y'all blew yourselves out the water this year.
Your shopping trip sounds like the sort of things I usually hear on the Reddit reader channels I use for general background noise.
Merry Christmas Bo, Stick, Jim, Sturmling, Zuit, Bear, and anyone else I've missed... you guys are always awesome.
Im other news, i realised who Stick reminds me of today... Rizzo the Rat.
Merry Christmas and thank you for taking time away from your family to upload videos.
Bo learning about hotpot is a cultural learning experience for him. Now Sturmling needs to take him to hotpot.
Happy Christmas Bo and the gang! Festive cheer from England

Stairs are not that scary folks.

Merry Tigmas! This video was quite the Christmas gift! Lotta fun jokes and chaos in this one. Thank you, guys and merry Christmas!!
Happy holidays to you as well!
Nice work and Merry Christmas
WOW jim, "stick if you were a deer, youd be hit by So many cars....."

God Bless the Truck drivers! Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas boys. Love the content.
Love it Bo and crew ❤️ Merry Christmas to you Bo, TBLF and everyone else 🤶🏻🎅🏻🧑🏻🎄🎄❤️
great video bo and merry christmas!
Jim having to deal with a cousin who treats him like a child is an experience most of us can relate to
I like the idea of cosmetic variants of normal tech tree vehicles. Rather than randomly powered fantasy things.
I do agree it’s the better of the two choices, but as a wot immigrant I’d prefer if it was cosmetics.
The pack value is great though

Merry fairy Christmas!!!! Jim hope Your back is better!!!!!
Stick, something you don't have to wait for it to cool before you can enjoy it is a nice cold Dr Pepper with 23 unique flavors.
Tell Jim it would only take 3 days of us drivers not working before society went Mad Max. I do like the idea of a week off. I'd get popcorn and watch the fall. 😂
At least for the grocery stores to run out and not have anything left in the back.
Happy Holidays Bo and gang !! 👍👋
Out of all the Tigers, Panthers, and Panzers, who do tou think would be the most likely to be on the naughty list?
Merry Christmas everyone!
All
Merry Christmas bo and God bless!
🎵 Jim's a brick haus. He's mighty mighty🎵
Merry Christmas Mr Bo ! 🎉
Merry Christmas bo and co

Merry Christmas Bo. I actually play these 3 vehicles quite a bit. Trying to unlock all the camos for them. To bad they don't have the ability to buy netting with ge or be able to spade it in modification menu
I keep expecting this tiger to tell me to get out of it's swamp.
Merry Christmas hope the new year is better
Ah so this is why i am getting so many full up tiers
