Syrian Hell Cannon Mortar with Explosive Rounds, Part 1
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 мар 2020
- Our friends at Weapon Genetics made a replica of the "Hell Cannon" improvised mortars out of the Syrian conflict and we fabricated explosive ammunition for it. Much to our surprise, the rounds became dual purpose explosive and incendiary and lit the range on fire.
Obviously don't do this at home, as it will most likely result in your riding out the Coronavirus pandemic in a federal jail cell.
If watching this video somehow leads to you thinking that we're pandering to your political, racial, religious, or other ideology; you've spectacularly missed the point. This video is nothing more than a bunch of eccentrics down in Texas (what, you think people in Iowa do stuff like this?), amusing themselves with an unusual hobby of building explosive ordnance for entertainment purposes.
Also if for some reason you think this is at all illegal and want to call the cops on us, please ask for Special Agent Naughtius Maximus or Special Agent Incontinentia Buttocks.

I love the automatic camo-effect of the launcher.. folds down right after launch to make it invisible... great concept!!
Hadn't even concidered that, I thought it was crappy construction but as an ambush weapon that does have its merits.
Reminds me of the disappearing guns of the late 19th century.
good save!

@@TheSubpremeState literally the only thing preventing him from doing that is lack of knowledge and mostly resources like uranium, but nothing stops you from getting the proper security clearances and liscenses to access stuff like that.
@@tom4208 In theory lets say you could get your hands on a few kilos of weapons grade plutonium or some HER. The engineering and machining that goes into even the simplest of "gun type" nuclear devices is still pretty extensive. Getting the fissile materials was the easy part for the Manhattan Project, turning them into a functional bomb took the combined brains, resources, and infrastructure of the US government in the 40s. And even then they still had pretty terrible yields for the amount of fissile material used, a good percentage of it never reacted.
It's all about the hollow core with the Li deuteride and reflectors
One of my friends was into buying antique nautical stuff. He had a few cannons. One of which he took out to Glamis. Coors beer cans fit perfectly in this cannon. So he melted a few other cans and poured them into the coors can and topped it with an eye bolt. He then tied about a 100' nylon rope to the eye bolt and achored it to a motorcycle trailer away from everything. He put about an ounce of black powder in the cannon and lit the fuze.
The next thing we knew there was just a piece of rope tied to the trailer. The projectile was gone. There was some campers about 3 or 4 miles away in the direction he aimed it. A few minutes later some smoke started coming up from them.
He was all worried he hit one. But it turned out they were just as stupid and set one of their own campers on fire. He never found the projectile.

I was mortar section leader in the USMC infantry. You should really think about making a round baseplate for that thing with a little socket joint in the middle to seat the end of pipe and then it won't fall over and you'll be able to control the round. That mortar could have fallen over right before the round fired. Even with a baseplate an incorrectly set mortar will fall over. I've seen it with my own eyes. Be safe please.

You can get a pretty good estimate of the mortar range by extrapolating the Civil war data for the 12 pdr,20 pdr and 30 pdr Parrott rifles. Wind resistance from the higher angle of attack will reduce the range but not by much and test firing will allow adjusting the firing tables
what a terrifyingly simply weapon.. That's crazy how far it chucked that shell for just a little bit of black powder in the bottom of a thick wall pipe
well done on this build, very interesting seeing such a crude yet effective weapon
Your ATF agent probably catches a lot of crap from the other agents.
Also probably one of the busier ones.
definitely, in-between going outside the bounds of their job & secretly writing up the laws that they then later enforce, while claiming "hey buddy, we don't make the law(s) we just enforce it!" to the poor unlucky bastards that they end up raiding/molesting their privacy to look at their entire cache...
or, if you're unlucky enough to have posted a beginners guide to prepping, you're more than certainly going to want to begin anticipating as-well as planning for a "surprise check up" from your local gestapo branch!
ATF can suck it!
As long as you have the correct licenses, correct license category and comply with all bureaucratic record keeping, the ATF cannot do anything but smile that you have jumped through all of their hoops. As long as these guys demonstrate their intent to do business, the ATF can't really harass them because they don't want to lose their jobs. Of course, if the ATF, just like the FBI fabricated fake criminal crap on Flynn, wants to make a criminal conspiracy on some no-bodies (not related to Trump), they can at the risk of ending up as somebody's girlfriend in a Federal prison.
@@No1Son-7 lol
For future reference you can also use expended dry chemical fire extinguishers for your projoes. That will give you a thicker shell, You might also want to use some friction tape around the base of the "warhead" ti act as a gas seal, just be sure it still slides smoothly down the "cannon tube" and be sure to use some lubricant on the tape, like vaseline or axle grease. The round will go further and higher. Just a suggestion from an Old Ordnance Warrant Officer.
Pretty sure the idea here wasn't to replicate the ballistic characteristics of the improvised mortar rounds, instead the focus is more on the terminal effects of the warhead.
If they were looking to simulate the ballistics it might be possible to do it much easier (and much more consistently than the real thing) with a pneumatic cannon.
Sir do you come from a certain syrian province?
Name checks out
For anyone curious, that gas seal he refers to is called an "obturator" or "obturation". Word of the day.

I cant believe the crazy Texans also use meters, I'm so proud.
Military and Science in U.S. uses Metric. We have metric and imperial for a lot of our measurements in rulers, canisters etc. It's just that imperial is still standard in our hardware stores and in construction. Considering they were doing a military style type of test, with his military background, explains why he used meters in measuring the explosion radius.
as well as using Kilograms in measuring the weight of the explosive
It's a military thing. He's probably a veteran.
@@yankeespanky6570 we use Imperial and metric here in the Philippines.
@Unsesquipedalian For us sure. For foreigners it isn't.
So happy I found this channel!
The last explosion was so powerful it pulled debis towards it before pushing everything away!!!! Loved it you guys are so awesome
The sight on the front of the original shows a LOT of optimism.
Way too much optimism. I like to think it was some auto mechanic with zero experience built it lmao
yes and no, at this point they're so good at making them that they've got their machining processes and tolerances down to a T, and are finally capable of making accurate homemade weapon systems.
though if you're gonna use sights, take some off of battlefield pickups of mortars from the army, but at that point you may as well just take the entire mortar/artillery piece and make the rounds for said cannons yourself, rather than the entire cannon plus the rounds. to each their own I suppose.

@@RoarDaemon a bullet wont set off an anfo bomb. It's very stable.
Gday lads.
The most reliable and safe ignition is a Diesel engine glow plug mounted in the bottom. Using a standard car battery to heat it up. By placing a piece of painters tape over the bottom of the round and dropping the round down the tube the glow plug burns through the tape instantly and ignites the loose black powder. You can hang rounds all day
Also if you want to get really fancy you can mount and outer sheath and weld it up water tight with a nut welded on the top. Fill her up full of water as a water jacket to prevent over heating and will handle any pre mature detonations.
So I’ve heard
Great effort guys thanks, and great angles on the second launch.
I grew up watching MacGyver, I know how to make a weapon out of a paperclip, some gum and an ak47..

The only time I've experienced mortar fire as I was a flyer, we were establishing a forward operating base later to become leather neck. I was a pilot in the C130-J adaptive super herc and on that flight were jato in forklifts and water purification systems.
Mortars are terrifying. The birds were sitting ducks on landing, so we had to land empty and haul ass out of there as the insurgents put holes in the airframe within seconds of being in range.
It was land, brake like hell, spin around dump the cargo seal up, spin up the props ignite the jatos and pray like hell as your guts get mangled while climbing to 20k within a minute and half.
sounds like a right nightmare

@@MattH-wg7ou this was about 9 years ago maybe even 10ish if that makes any difference. I'm out now but haven't heard about them being disused.

When we were kids, we would take a piece of pipe, cap or crimped at one end, drop a firecracker down it, and put a well fitting stone on top to cover the hole. It was our firecracker mortar, and we’d try to hit things on the lake with it. Hours of fun that would be frowned upon nowadays.
The slow motion of the big projectile (5-kilo) you can see the dirt and debris be sucked into the vacuum that the explosion created. Super cool!!
If I remember correctly, using a PVC pipe to load black powder is extremely dangerous. The PVC will build up a static charge very easily and set off the black powder in your face. Being in a dry environment makes it even more likely.
Yeah static and black powder are no good together.
Whats a good alternative ?

When we were kids, about 10 or 11 years of age, my brother and I made a mortar out of three tin coke cans placed one on top of the other and held together with electrical tape. The top and ends of the first two cans we cut out. The third can we only cut out the top leaving the bottom of the shaft with its rear intact. We then bored a small hole at the end of the mortar to insert propellant which in this case was simple alcohol! As simple as it was, the mortar held together for several discharges using alcohol. The force of the blast was enough to send a tennis ball about 200 feet at about 80 mph!
Not long after that, we attended a fourth of July party at which our Uncle provided live M-80's (Quarter sticks of dynamite). We took the M-80's home and decided to try them out in our home made mortar! Our first attempt using an M-80 was successful and in fact the tennis ball was propelled so high that we could not see it. When it landed on our street the tennis ball bounced an incredible 20 or 30 feet into the air. Our neighbor was observing our "blasting" and at his insistence we mounted the mortar onto the truck bed of his old truck to reduce the chance of injury in the event of an "accident!" We then reloaded the mortar with a 2nd M-80 and lit the alcohol fuse. And then "whamo", the mortar flew into a thousand pieces and the tennis ball only went 20 feet into the air. When we checked further, we found that the explosion blew a hole five inches wide into our neighbor's truck bed! In fact, my brother and I were very lucky that we didn't seriously hurt ourselves. Our uncle would have been arrested today if anything serious occured!
Because 3 coke cans can hold that big of a combustion.
@@ferrischemistry7879 We should have used a solid pipe, but somehow we decided to use coke cans which at that time were still made of tin. But the change of propellant, alcohol to M-80, was what doomed our home made mortar! Coke cans aren't strong enough to survive the blast of dynamite!
M-80s are not made from dynamite (you mean TNT, yes?)
@@ferrischemistry7879 No I was not aware of that!

That projectile to bore fit is absolutely atrocious. You could have at least gave the round a thick band of duct tape to act as a gas seal. Awesome channel though. I love this shit.
I'd use nylon tape to reduce friction
@@spazmonkey2131 A single use projectile like that would not really benefit from reduced friction. It might have 1 to 100 ft more range but it's not worth it really.
@@joekeil954 I just feel the duct tape would bind up too much, and nylon tape isn't too expensive
@@spazmonkey2131 Duct tape doesn't bind up at all. I use it as a gas seal on projectiles for an Oxy-Acetylene cannon. I have a strong feeling nylon tape would fail due to a lack of adhesion strength. Plus you could always wax the gas seal for extra lubrication.

I was hoping to see a large crater where the mortar round went off. Many, many, years ago a chemist buddy of mine made a good amount of high grade nitro-glycerin. We filled a 32 oz mayonnaise jar with the stuff and took it out to a very remote location. With an M-80 and a time delay fuse (a cigarette) we set it inside an old stack of large truck tires we found. We were over 200 yrds away when it went off and I swear it knocked all four of us on our Asses. It left a smoking crater in the ground about 12 ft across and 3 ft deep, Sooooooooooooo Awesome.

Need a base plate for the mortar tube. Also prig launcher might a good thing to test, plus depending on how you build it it could be considered a blackpowder cannon.
Clearly a baseplate is not needed for this
In no way would a PRIG be considered a blackpowder cannon by the BATFE.
@@MrMrBiggles what do you mean? Im talking about the launching tube, not the projectile. Whats so different between a prig launcher and a cannon? Both use blackpowder and neither use a fixed ammunition.
@@tinkeringclaws5559 my apologies for the delayed response. The reason a PRIG would not be classified as a black powder cannon is that the bore diameter is greater than 1/2 inch, and that the means of ignition being a battery would place it into the destructive device category. Notice the means of ignition on black powder cannons is a fuse, because a mechanical ignition would require registering them as destructive devices. Now, I'm not a laywer, and this is my very limited understanding of the rules about this. Your mileage my vary. There is an outstanding young gentleman that has done a Panzerfaust, with the appropriate t's crossed and i's dotted, and wrote a book about it.
@@MrMrBiggles the prig launcher can use literally any ignition system. Use cannon fuse or hell you could even put the lock from a flintlock or cap and ball on it. Also most cannons have a bore over 1/2. I know the guy that wrote that book, he also has a youtube channel and is making a fliegerfaust.

Hi, I am late here, but you must stabilize the base of the mortar to keep the round straight. When you detonate the black powder, the cannon moves and change the trajectory of the round, hitting it with the upper part of the cannon itself. Good try, was very informative.
9:14 That Cat is very worried about being blown to bits.
The cat is a major conspirator to this whole operation honestly. Buddy is wanted in several nations for war crimes.
Nah man 10:35 is the good stuff
When are we gonna get 80% mortar rounds?
Lmao!
Go to your local hardware store and find a small propane canister and there you go.
I'll take 15
Alhumdulillah! Nice work ahki. Im glad I ran into yall channel. Insha'Allah I'll be checking y'all out and keep up the good work Insha'Allah. As Salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmahtu Allahi wa Barahkatu.
Man how could you expect to hit anything with that. Very cool video
On a more serious note it's amazing and scary how easy it is to make a mortar and if you're not right in the head could cause alot of damage to innocent people and their belongings i.e home car and so on great work guys love the contents of your videos
9:12 You're teaching your cat how to mix explosives?! You madman, you'll doom us all!
Buddy is a trained professional.
@@OrdnanceLab Demo-kitty!
Not just any cat, Grumpy cat....
Lmao bruh this title moved you up on that watchlist
I feel like i got put on a list subscribing to this
I’m definitely on some kind of watch list now
i'm so glad you do this stuff so the rest of us wont get arrested trying it.
@Pavel Manzhetov yep i want to figure out 90% of this shit
I feel a big war brewing with the direction we're going so videos like these might be super helpful in the future.
If there were ever a zombie apocalypse these guys are covered 😂
The music choice is hilariously accurate.
This video is incredibly education in the fact of what a crude simple explosive can do when a group is dedicated to doing something. It may not have had an incredible blast yield but that spell and shrapnel will cause a bad day for someone on the receiving end.
i think the IRA hit a helicopter with one in the 90's
ESSAYONS!!!! Guys I've got to tell you how much fun it was for me to watch you guys "home brew" some field expedient explosives and weapons. I was a 12B in the US Army and had multiple tours in Iraq. I was part of the invasion force of 2003, and participated in a lot of the locate and destroy efforts during '03 after the "war time mission" was over. My Battalion (54th EN BN) were all over the Al Anbar province during that time. Now this was my first video I've watched from this channel BUT I guarantee, it will not be the last until I"ve caught up with the whole collection. Thanks for the visit down memory lane. Yeah I know what you showcased was very different from what I saw but its not too far off. Anyways as long as your count is always 20 at the end of the day keep the videos coming. Didnt mean to sound like a fan boy, but I really loved my time working around explosives and miss it very much. Nothing like the smell of cooking time fuse and real C4 (sorta like juicy fruit).
LOL
Sand Bags. or bury the front "bipods" or tack weld perforated strapping on the bipods and use some tent stakes to keep the mortar from moving so much. Drill pilot holes on the upper end of the "Bipod" stand/rods and use cotter pins to secure it to the tube. I'm only an 11b, so I think an 11C Mortarman could offer some better advise. All in all, This looked awesome. I made a 5 foot catapult for my kid 18 years ago and had some mixed results before I got it to work : ) This is true Dad stuff right here. Nice work.
Grass fires go crazy fast they get bigger and bigger my buddy when i was kid caught some grass on fire in the woods barely was able to stop it
Yo if my FBI agent is seeing this, I was bored on a rainy day. Have no interest in joining this hahahahah
When I saw your hand tip away while you were holding the live, impact fuse equipped round, my heart jumped. It was most likely a larger weight than could've slipped easily from your hand in hindsight. As a word of love and concern for you and your work: I'm far from any professional, but I've seen a lot of complacent people get hurt in a split second.
great... im on another a watchlist now
My friend had some Mexican m-80s type firecrackers. It had a powder fuse on a stick. Like a bottle rockets. Some didn’t blow up. He drove a pipe in the ground. Broke a toed flair. Let the flair dropped a dude them a marble. Made a nice cannon.
Obligatory "Last time I was this early, my gf was really disappointed" comment.
This has been one of the least terrible iterations of this meme I've seen.
Them: 'So for this video we made a homemade mortar which is actually not regulated here'
Me: heck yeah brother. Gob bless America! Ha ha
Gob XD
9:13 I like the look on the cat's face. He's thinking "this is Not going to end well".
Wow, u guys have the best job ever!
“We’re gonna try to find it inshallah”👀
@Politically Correct well it explains why he loves explosives so much
"we're gonna try to find it, inshallah!" LMAO 🤣🤣

@@justinsloan2752 god willingly basically 'please god' let me win the raffle
"If God wills it"
Can I laugh now?
