Shooting cannon balls with the slingshot

[JoergS]

New video is online! It was my birthday, and I we drove over to Tobias's place for some fun shooting and a full blown party later on.

The walkback slingshot was presented in an earlier video already, but due to the lack of space it wasn't tested with steel balls before.



This test - requested by many viewers - was now performed. Watch how the team warms up and the reliably hit the hay bail from 44 yards distance!

The heavy steel ball goes in about two feet.

This weapon is highly portable and very powerful.

Also, as requested by the audience, the chest plate "Massacre Master" slingshot is tested on longer distances, too - with nice results.

Love it! Let us know when the German space program starts contracting with you to put things in orbit.



Also love how just about everyone else almost goes ass over teakettle and you barely flinch when you launch it...

I was worried there that if Jorge let go of that girl before she released the ball they'd be measuring how far she penetrated the haystack.

Nice video. also I can't wait till you build a truck bed mounted unit of some kind. I'm picturing one of those old artillery guns with the crank left/right and up/down. and you could have a third crank to draw the giant bands back next to you ans drop in your payload

As always joerg, awesome video with some truly amazing slingshots, now if you could find a way to make a launcher with flechette shotgun type ammo but like 10x bigger

I'm starting to wonder when you're going to build a slingshot where the balls don't come back down.

Yet another proof of the theory: Guys turn 13. Then they just grow.

One of these days, I'm gonna move somewhere where it's legal to build your own crossbow.
