    I’m already working on building the most powerful slingshot in the world, and after a bit of research I already understood it’s going to make these one look like toys. Update: here it is ruclips.net/video/_ipvR9wPvWg/видео.html
    Also I tried going with no background music at all. The reason I did this it's because it gives a more chill/raw vibe to the content but let me know what you think.
    The next video is going to be the first one in which I build something, and many more to come after that. Don't miss it it's nice

    When i was a kid we always have those wooden slingshots and use stones for ammo. One time my dad saw me using the slingshot aiming at the mango fruit from the tree hoping it will fall down and I could eat it. Then my dad told me that i shouldn't aim for the fruit, as it will damage it, and that I should aim for the stalk/stem of the fruit instead. I laughed because the stem was too little of a target so I thought he was joking. Then he grabbed the slingshot, loaded it up, and with one shot, he hit the stem and the fruit fell to the ground. My jaw dropped and was so amazed to see that.

      Yep- if you grew up in the 50s and 60s- kids were crazy about sling shots and some of them got really, really good with them. My dad could shoot through the neck of a bottle and knock the bottom out - which amazed us kids. So, we started trying to learn to shoot- on about my third try I hit my thumb with a steel ball, and it broke it- it was what they call a "wrist rocket" and I had it dimed out- pulled back as far as it would go. Man, it hurt- I will never forget the pain.

    Great video. We had homemade slingshots as boys using very heavy rubber bands. The slingshots were carved using a natural “Y” shaped branch. Because we were boys with lots of time on our hands we became deadly accurate with them. I recall that they could punch a marble through a glass bottle without shattering the glass - just two neat holes.

    • @digitalphoenix72
      @digitalphoenix72 8 месяцев назад +14

      Yeah, I remember whittling one as a kid myself as well, it was really hard to find bands in the mountains we lived, but when we got them it kept us entertained for hours. Even with that little thing, it was much more powerful than it looked like. I also remember seeing a professionally made one with the wrist stabilizer when I was about 10, and that one was so powerful it made me skittish. I knew if one of my idiot friends aims it like an idiot and hits me, it'd be like getting hit with a bullet. And I didnt need the help, I ended up catching a bullet as an adult because of an idiot not being careful🙄

    it wasn't the scope, it just couldn't handle the slowness and heavy drop of the projectile.
    You'd need a canted mount that points it down a few degrees, they're really common to use on air rifles.
    In air rifles it's referred to as 'barrel droop' in the US. Break-barrel air rifles tend to lose elevation over time so that led to scope mounts with an angle.

      As an air-gunner myself I've noticed, additionally, the stock scopes that come with most air rifles aren't made to be used at the shorter ranges at which airguns operate. I often have to adjust a scope 4x more than what seems necessary.

      Well... with a firearm you shoot at the same point several times and then adjust the scope from there and keep trying until you're zeroed. In theory you'll always hold it the same way so you need to adjust the scope for you, not for a static mount.

Like you mentioned, the extra mile to tell this story well and jokes that only last 1 second, but still hit, really pushes this video above the average "science guy builds a thing and tests it" content. Short and sweet. Not wasting my time. Love it.

I started using one around the age of 6 or 7, and it always, from the beginning, just felt natural, to me. You know what I mean? Like an extention of your body, you just sort of *know* how to make your projectile go where you want (which were usually rocks for me, too, lol). I found green acorns worked pretty well, too, if you wanted something for target shooting. My late little brother and I used to use rotten acorns the way other people used paintballs, lol. Left a nasty welt and bruise, but never broke the skin. It was really fun when we went camping, and had the whole forest for a battleground. I'd also hunt doves as a kid, and clean and cook them. I was weirdly proud of myself for being able to get my own food, even though it was barely more than a couple chicken wings worth of meat (though it was tender and tasty, hehe).

    Scopes like the one you got with the slingshot are prone to losing zero under "vigorous movement" like being dropped or ya know having to reload a giant ass slingshot or something along those lines. Trying to zero a cheap scope on something with giant band that you reload with your foot is an example of a literal sisyphian task. The makeshift shooting bench rest was a galaxy giga brain play but even a professional grade bench rest would struggle to keep that thing on zero. Great video and you earned my sub!

    Fun fact: rubber bands actually hold more energy when they are hotter, and at the same time, stretching the rubber bands causes them to heat up.
    So as a result, stretch the rubber and immediately release it gives you the most power.

    I think the reason you couldn't burst the hairspray can, and why the bearings wouldn't penetrate the ballistic gel, was that you were using the larger diameter bearings. If you'd used the same bearings as the other tests, I'm pretty sure it would have been superior in that category. Especially so if the larger bearings were made of a less-dense alloy.

      No that’s how you make a toy. If you put on the red arrow pouch for much for power and draw length as well as accuracy the pocket shot can easily break ribs with a 10mm steel ball. Also with the pro arrow pouch it can shoot an arrow with a 40lb pull, the minimum to hunt deer in the US is 35lb. Not the same kid.
