Fun fact, the concrete walls of the pentagon are actually coated in the exact bedliner they used. Specifically to protect against explosions. The high tensile strength of the compound works well with the high compressive strength of concrete. It got the coating in 2006. Just a few years before this episode was recorded.
could it be, that the material underneath the coating is still cracked, but held together because of the coating and becoming more and more rubber-like material?
@@martinvaldhans3679 I feel like thats possible maybe? But in the case of an explosion hitting it that doesn't just deglove the wall of its lining, they'd likely have the good sense to check for cracks afterward. In this scenario, the wall isnt coming down immediately either way, which is all its expected to do
Louisville, KY beat this sewer explosion experiment by 43 years. Several hundred gallons of hexane were dumped in the sewer and set off by a car driving over a manhole cover at 6 am. A manhole cover narrowly missed hitting someone in bed, and several streets looked like they had been bombed.
The American Govt got Kentucky beat by like 2 to 3 years after the people wanted them to stop underwater nuclear test they set a nuclear war head about 400ft in the ground with a explosive just large enough to set the warhead off and it launched the manhole cover at like 123,000 mp/h it was only on camera for a frame
@@Blasted2Oblivion the reason we believe that it launched into space was when they used a highspeed camera it was in one frame after the explosion of I remember the correct estimated travel speed was somewhere around 123'000 mph
@@vampyrusblack494 Don't get me wrong. On just pure speed, it absolutely would have made it. When you add other factors like atmospheric friction though, it almost certainly would have burned up before it got that far.

The blast from Even an anti personnel mine will crush civilian car bodywork like a beer can - dosen't matter what applied coatings it has on it. A no shit anti vehicle mine? Occupants have No chance at all. Now, if you painted the INTERIOR side of the car floor pan with a 1/4" thick layer of bed liner... that might catch any spall (pieces of the inside surface of the floor pan dislodged by the blast) from an anti personnel mine blast... but it won't stop any primary projectiles from the mine. And a mine intended to disable or destroy an armored vehicle? It'll do fuck all. BUT... fun fact - the interior of an armored vehicle is painted with a high build polyurea coating (it might actually BE a milspec line x product in fact) in some applications its also over over a kevlar fabric matrix it's called a "spall liner" That is designed to stop pieces of the interior side of the armor from getting dislodged from blast and killing the crew. Even if the armor isn't penetrated - the impact energy can propagate through the armor and break off a disc shaped chunk of the armor at a high enough velocity to kill crew members. Spall liners reduce this possibility If you shoot a BB at a thick piece of tempered glass - and it doesn't actually penetrate - but it busts off a cone shaped divot out of the inside surface of the glass? That's the same idea. That's spall. Bed liner isn't armor itself. But it can be a part of an armor system.
New sewer explosion video came out about a month ago from china. Blew every one in a city of like 40k people. One video of it shows the right lane of light traffic, at the fogline they are just getting rocked for like a mile, over 20. Some covers took most of the lane with them. Guy drives past them all after in the same vid.
Before vented covers it was so common the fire dept had written rule no parking on manholes.When I was a new guy we were still riding on the back.Then there was an explosion. The old guys I was with, had a heads or tails bet before it landed.
The bed liner might not work as a full coat, but you could armor straight sections for lightweight protections against teeth and other small to medium damages. Be pretty conspicuous though. This isn't the 1100s.
I never understood why in some tests like the manhole one they did not have an extreme wide shot to be able to see the full height these thing got to, was it missing foresight or maybe they lost the footage as it happened sometimes 🤔
It wouldn't surprise me if they had it, but the resolution wasn't good enough to actually be able to see them in the wide shot so they didn't include it in the cut
I would like to point out that making a car 'crash proof' (i.e. unable to deform under the impact of a crash) would actually be undesirable. That's how they used to design cars, back in the mid20th Century. They used to design them to be these tanklike juggernauts that could withstand crashes super well! Then, they worked out that, if your car doesn't deform, it stops deader... and so do _you(!)_ Now, cars are designed to crumple on impact to absorb the force of what might otherwise be a dead stop that would kill you!
Old cars weren't actually as tanky as people like to claim, those things collapsed like accordions in serious crashes. It's mostly just a fairly literal case of survivorship bias because the drivers of old crash-totaled cars were too dead to complain.
The fastest man-made object in history was actually a “manhole”cover used during the Plumbob experiment in the Nevada desert. look it up!!!! It’s pretty cool and estimated 150,000 miles an hour.
RUclipsr Kyle Hill just posted a video about this experiment where he posits that the cover was annihilated rather than launched up. He brings good evidence for that hypothesis. I don’t think we will ever know.
@@RangerMcFriendly it was launched specifically due to the expanding gases, so the heat wouldn’t have reached it in time to vaporize it before the gas propelled it upward, so it wasn’t annihilated from the explosion itself, and because of its speed, it was not able to gather up enough heat while going through the atmosphere to be destroyed. That way only logical conclusion is that it is still traveling through space
30,000 years from now a manhole cover screams into an alien atmosphere and hits a building killing a family of 4. The War of the Worlds begins and the Emperor of Man makes his presence known to combat the alien menace.
@@kansaman1a lot of people have modeled it and found that it would have absolutely been destroyed very quickly. You're right that the heat from the nuke itself wouldn't have destroyed it, but when an object is going that fast, it compresses the air in front of it to a huge degree, generating incredible amounts of heat. That, combined with the enormous pressure generated by that collision with the air, would have torn it apart and basically atomized it. If you look up how heat shields for reentry from space work (which is the closest analog we have to this, but is still less extreme as the potential speeds are typically much lower (ranging between orbital velocity at LEO and escape velocity, and they are going that fast in the upper atmosphere, rather than the far denser lower troposphere), you'd see that most of them work by ablation, where basically they are designed so that, as they get heated, the outer layers fall apart and carry away some of that heat. That's because only a few extremely specialized materials can actually survive that type of condition. The space shuttles didn't use an ablative shield, but you can see what happens to something without a very specialized shield if you look up the Columbia disaster, where the heat shield was damaged during launch which caused the shuttle to disintegrate during reentry. A hunk of steel that is not remotely aerodynamically stable would not survive conditions even more extreme than that for more than a few meters, it would be torn apart by the extreme forces while also being vaporized by the heat generated from the collision with the air. Yes it could be argued to be the fastest man-made object, but when you're only going a matter of meters due to not being able to survive those conditions, that's not meaning it made it into space.
IIRC thats due to not wanting any potential outsiders influencing the dog with commands besides the handler. If you're on the run, you're not going to try see if the dog responds to french or german or whatever.
Guadalajara, April 22nd, 1992. A series of explosions destroyed 8 kilometers of street killing 252+ people. The cause was a gas buildup in the sewer system starting on the 19th.
Back in August 1957, a nuclear test in Nevada called Pascal A, part of Operation Plumbob, blew a manhole cover into outer space, being clocked at a speed 125,000 miles per hour. Basically, they shoved a nuclear bomb into a vertical pipe and covered it with a manhole. Thanks to that, the manhole beat Sputnik as the first man made object in space.
Unfortunately, it likely didn't get into space. The math shows that it almost certainly would have disintegrated due to atmospheric friction. Like a meteor in reverse. Had it survived though, you are correct. It actually would have been able to break orbit.
Historically there are examples of manhole covers flying into the air due to an explosion transmitting into the sewer. The East Ohio Gas explosion is one example.
@39:46 did anyone else catch in the rear left side of the replay shoot a single stream of air henceforth a more exciting result too possibly happen or am I just crazy and way observant?! 💯🤔😉💞😁🙏🏼🙊🙉🙈💯
Police and rescue dogs are usually trained in Germany or The Netherlands. There are a couple companies based there that are considered the best in the world. It also helps to train the dogs in a language not commonly spoken in the country they're intended to be working in, to avoid confusing the dog with potential accidental counter commands.
Exploding Manhole is Confirmed big time steam, junk, closed sewer, or a blocked trash rack it can blow up the sewer and launch manholes. Another reason this is confirmed it happened in San Francisco during the quake, it happened in New York when there was a blockage at the Con Edison Steam Plant, it happened in Mexico, and a big one tore through Rio after the sewer got backed up it can happen.
This happens in china all the time there was one not too long ago where the manhole covers on the free way exploded thay went super high up u guys should see it eas pretty crazy
a friend of mine used bed liner to line the interior flooring of his convertible classic car which actually turned out great and helped him to not have to worry about it getting rained on plus added strength to the body.
I guess its a good thing Jamie could not build an atom bomb and get permission to fire it off in the desert or they could have done the ultimate manhole explosion experiment. ;)
Yep, the idea is that way the dogs won't interpret regular English conversation as commands. Officer A: "You want lunch?" Officer B: "Yeah I could go for a bite." Dog: [BITE!]

a friend of mine used bed liner to line the interior flooring of his convertible classic car which actually turned out great and helped him to not have to worry about it getting rained on plus added strength to the body.
Bed liner: high wind (hurricane or tornado) proof?
Uh.... bedliner could protect tank crews from spallation...
boy, that bedliner myth didnt age well.. Just ask Seagate.
3:40 fingers gone and eyes poked out by holding metal?
I guess its a good thing Jamie could not build an atom bomb and get permission to fire it off in the desert or they could have done the ultimate manhole explosion experiment. ;)
This is the first time i heard them with their original voice, they didn't sound nothing like i expected 😭😭😭😭😭
I've exploded a few man holes, but I was covered.
ahahah I didn't know american police trains their dogs with german command words. "fass!" (bite) "aus!" (off, finish -> stop), "platz!" (place -> sit)
Yep, the idea is that way the dogs won't interpret regular English conversation as commands.
Officer A: "You want lunch?"
Officer B: "Yeah I could go for a bite."
Dog: [BITE!]
the manhole thing happened in china this year or last year but on a much larger scale
I've gotten kinda old, is that a Ford Tempo or Escort? I'm thinking Escort. Either way, wooww 😮😮😮 , I haven't seen one of either of them in such a long time. It sucks how easy it is to forget things.
In hindsight, Grant probably shouldn't have been the one doing the crash test with that whiplash
Love mythbusters
I would love to have a car with that coating! Aside from the obvious scratch resistance it looks so cool 😎
Probably the bedliner can be used to stop zombie bites 😂
Adam's first Hawk Tua.
All the debris doing, is tightening up the combustion chamber of the sewers air space. Effectively causing a higher pressure on the lids....🤔😋💣💥
Supposedly one of the fastest things to ever be launched into outer space was a manhole cover.
