Thanks for Henri for helping with the gunpowder and ignition! Check out Henri's new channel Pommijätkät czcams.com/channels/r1cNqiNxK46w93zw9KfTLg.html
Videos are in Finnish but I try to make Henri add subtitles to videos :D
Laury, you should try to crush 10 kg anvils with hydraulic press
Oisko seuraavaksi kartio kolo jotta paine olisi suunnattu suoraa ylöspäin. Näin ainakin toimii panssariaseet. Suunnattu painevaikutus. Ja sytytyksen pitäisi tapahtua kartion kärjestä jotta paineaalto liikkuu ulospäin. TL:RD googlatkaa "shape charge".
Maybe you try to mill a cone shape into that anvil you fill with the explosives 👍🏻
Forget the cone shape!
Maybe you should drill a hole into the floor of one anvil. I would try to go down to the middle. I would try a diameter of 15 to 20 mm. After a depth of about the quarter you should hollow the inside in a bottle shape.
The fill it up with the gunpowder that worked best 😁👍🏻
Hope you try this, because i‘m curious if that works
we love you Annie and Lauri! stay warm this winter and hello from North Carolina USA
When I was a kid, the cartoons all had anvils randomly falling out of the sky. Today I learned they actually came from Finland!
"Beep, beep!"
@@LakeNipissing Acme Company makes everything. They're yesterday's Amazon.
Quote from my dad: "You could screw up an anvil."
There actually were ACME brand anvils in real life.
pianos comes also from Finland :P
Best protection is tiny umbrella.
12:00
Lauri: I only can throw the anvil with my bare hands about 10m so it was way more--
Anni: eh, what?
Lauri is Kalevipoeg.
I would like to see this lol
HAHAHA. More like 0.5m
Finnish Artillery is crude but highly amusing
This is the real reason Simo Häyhä had a high kill count. There's a certain satisfaction that comes from bopping enemy soldiers over the head with anvils from low Earth orbit.
you make so with the stuff you have. If all you have are anvils and gunpowder, and the other guy has nukes, well then you anvil him from orbit.
The fun fact is that Finland has one of the strongest artilleries in the whole Europe (not including Russia). Finland has more artillery weapons than Germany or any other "western" european country.
Nothing is more terrifying than an anvil hurtling toward you from orbit and right before it hit you in the head you see the fine print on it that says Made in Finland.
Phantom. Some assembly is required.
You should have used creamy peanut butter to make a temporary seal between the anvils. It will increase the pressure between the anvils just long enough to get serious pressure and height.
That's what the world record holder does.
@@UraTrowelie there are records for this stuff? The fuck...
@@Jan_372 you Imagine the guy that goes around judging it how amusing that job would be!! Sure it will have it's ups and downs, ha!! but still fun I'm sure! Lol I Crack myself up. Sorry that was a horrible joke sounded funnier in my head lol
They've pressed their own peanut butter before on HPC channel. They could make some more homemade PB to use to seal the anvils.
And also - make surfaces much more smooth so they will fit more perfectly.
I love Lauri’s strong intuitive sense for how stuff works, and how to optimize for best results.
"It's good to try things careful" says the guy launching anvils in the air with gunpowder.
Careful and exciting are not mutually exclusive.
Lol
That’s some heavy firepower.....
REEEEEE
You here? lol
The next step is to turn the anvil into a type of sabot round and shoot it from a tube.
Taofledermaus, where art thou?
You posted the comment before the video was uploaded?
sounds like an extremely safe idea.
Hey, it's an actual sport in the US, with Championships held every year. czcams.com/video/IhQ4dE_RGnQ/video.html
"Somewhere in the forest"....you guys are the best!
Glad to see that you were/are taking the safety seriously! A neighbor of mine killed himself doing this. He did several things wrong--old cast iron anvils, too much powder, no safety equipment, and he was not nearly far enough away--and the anvils shattered, sending shrapnel flying in all directions. A small chunk of one of them pierced his chest and that was it for him. He'd launched the anvils about 8 or 9 times prior to the last blast.
Very cool to watch, though!
!!!!!❕❗‼❕❗
at 9:00 minutes the red band can be seen in the tree. just behind / above the flap of the car.
Oh yeah 😂😂😂
It's your fault if it breaks.
Ok that's good let's do it.
You guys bring a smile to my face every video I watch, thank you all so much. Things are kinda dark in my country right now and you guys give me some much needed lightheartedness.
I love how much you enjoy these experiments. I also enjoy this very much as do most of the viewers. Fun based on expertise and planning. Brilliant.
Lauri "it costs 200 euro if it breaks and you pay" And almost before Lauri could finnish (no pun intended) the sentence Henri´s like "okej, sounds good, let´s do it!" No hesitation there XD Lovely!
Big Clive was just talking about blacksmiths testing black powder by blasting anvils in the air
Must be the festive season!
Eh just watched that too, made me think of it
Man, I just love you guys. Thanks for great entertainment.
Scott and Cy were using 1 pound (454 grams) of powder to shoot their anvil, which looked to be about the same size as yours. the result was a bit better but similar to your efforts. Stay safe!
Didn't cy's have a ring to it ?
This is the fourth video i have seen of these guys, and each one gets better and better . Cheers for the laughs you guys ROCK !!!
You make some of the craziest yet interesting videos I've ever seen.
The most faster gunpowder ever........ I love these guys
Anvils were fun but those new rims and tires look great on your truck!!!
The tires worked also really well on that muddy field, no need to worry about getting stuck like old street tires
Your channels are the greatest thing I've discovered on youtube in a long time. So much fun and so satisfying to watch. Please keep them coming forever.
I always wondered what I'd do if I had access to a machine shop and now I know.
“Same hole, deeper every time.” That’s what she said.
PHRASING
That's what she said
lol
I was going to like Bubba's comment, but since it had 69 likes, I couldn't bring myself to ruin that. :-)
@@AndroidAppGuy never mind , aim to make it 6969 likes
10:55 was really funny, made my day
Back in the 1880's, there was an abandoned frontier fort in Texas, named Fort Belknap, that had been used my the US Military prior to the Civil War. It was taken over briefly by confederate forces during the war, but was not used as more than a staging point to control Indian raids. Most of the fort was dismantled by the locals to use as homesteads. The only thing that remained was the reinforced stone munitions store room. It had been breached by the locals and the remaining gun powder was used by farmers to remove stumps from their fields. The gun powder was also occasionally used by the more adventurous youths to either ignite by hitting it with a sledge hammer or setting a charge to shoot anvils. They finally did away with it after one of the boys was killed be an anvil. The grounds of the fort are still maintained as an historical site today. There are many more interesting things that occurred there, but that's another story.
Finns are pretty much the coolest people on Earth. Everyone else needs to catch up.
“Stunt person smoke - don’t breathe this!”
Yes to the ‘will it blend?’ Reference ❤️
The mixture of accents is great
Ah,ja the glorious city of (*incomprehendable). The old architecture is breathtaking, and it flourishes with all kind of different people!
Would this 14th century architecture be old enough? panunmatkat.files.wordpress.com/2014/06/savonlinna-olavinlinna.jpg And this. www.annea.fi/uploads/4/0/0/6/40063639/img-0861_orig.jpg
Hahahah, this is brilliant!!! :D You have taken backyard mayhem to a new level with this one! I really hope I'll get to meet you some day!
0:27 "Do or do not. There is no try."
Some one should have brought a shovel! Great video and lots of fun. Thanks for sharing.
In rural areas especially poorer ones, it was a common way to signal for help. It is called " ringing the anvil and usually is accomplished using a pound of black powder for an anvil . Apparently a single pound of gunpowder was cheaper than buying a town bell.
"Stunt person smoke, don't breathe that" lol
All the people that do this competitively use something sticky between the anvils to keep them together just a bit longer, this increases the internal pressures and launches it much higher.
New potential band name: "Finnish Anvil Farm"
Extremely Heavy Metal band
"I only can throw it about 10 meters with my bare hands..." Haha love it! 10 meters is not that bad! ^_^
you guys have all the fun
OK, it's crazy! It's nuts! But it is very entertaining. so thank you and thumbs up.
I like the Finnish insertions for example countdown at 3:48
It's so different from Swedish or Norwegian :) Also great video! :D I really enjoyed.
I love the safety glasses......just in case an anvil lands on their heads from 50m in the air. 😃
You guys are bonkers, but loads of fun.
Here's an idea, how about drilling a hole into the anvil in the center of the milled area and then packing that with a compressed load of super fine powder around a removable core. Essentially a rocket motor and then a charge in the milled out area to act as the initiator.
Just a thought
Some basic physics for yall interested:
gravitational potential energy for 30m height and 50kg anvil = 14,700J (approx) - Quite a lot of energy!!!
Using timescale on slow-mo, a time is taken for max height = 1.698s (approx)
using v^2=u^2+2as, where a=-9.81ms^-2 (decelleration due to gravity)
initial velocity (u) = 24.26ms^-1.
This means the anvil is launched from the ground at a speed of around 54.3mph or 87.3kmph!!
Anvil rocketry! Fantastic!
That wiggle fron the Dummy at the end had me totally cracking up. :D
Love the camera around the ladies neck. Looks like a 35mm film SLR !
Ok, this does it, I'm applying for Finnish citizenship … ;)
To send the anvil thurther you need a short barrel to contain the explosion, a great deal of eplosive power is lost sideways right now. That was a great and crazy vid.
Thank for sharing
The best channel on youtube!!!
Try drilling a really deep hole in the blue anvil and make a piston, you need to contain the pressure long enough for the red anvil to have time to accelerate. The way it is now your just dumping all the pressure as soon as there is enough to move the red anvil.
All he needs to do is to not use that FINE GUNPOWDER. And use COURSE GUN POWDER INSTEAD and FILLER UP and send it to the SPACE STATION.
I love finland and finnish people,
Mina olen jaakapissa.
Yes i am.
what
Get out of there
Two important things when firing an anvil for height. 1) Slow BP - Fast BP is for light projectiles (pistols). Heavy projectiles (cannons) use slow. 2) Good seal - BP needs confinement. Peanut butter or thin cardboard with contact adhesive are good choices.
This is so wonderfully CRAZY, I love it ................
🗣HILARIOUS ‼️😂😂😂😂 Finland we have a problem launch vehicle has returned to the pad.
Anni has the greatest laugh I’ve ever heard.
Same hole, deeper every time..... Lauri always on point with the jokes. :D also I finally received my Turkisk Peber I ordered and its great! It's not very spicy though :D must be I'm used to really hot food.
Profesional finn trick is to mix turkispeppers to vodka :D You should try also that if they are not strange enough as an candy :D
@@Beyondthepress I dunno about that, but they sure go well with beer.
The fact that your dummy was a little bit on fire makes it all come together!
7:50 "Same hole, but deeper every time" 🙊🤣🤣🤣
I must admit, I am completely jealous of Lori!! He has a beautiful wife and she always is smiling and is so colorful, watching your other video and your back yard the lake is amazing! Think it is your back yard that is. Lol Then to see it in winter is even more of a awesome view, plus you guys have made multiple successful channels on the ol CZcams here. I know it is from countless hours of hard work that got you here, but it was straight up luck getting your wife!! Lol be safe'ish guys have a good one!!
lori? i think you mean lauri
I believe slower burning powder combined with a much better seal will give you better results. Slower powder pushes heavy projectiles better which is why it is used in higher caliber cartridges.
This is really good stuff. Very entertaining to watch. If we tried that in the US there would be hell to pay... Keep making good videos.
That was great. That first anvil went 50 feet straight up and came down and sunk all the way in the ground. You could hardly get it out of its hole.
I saw some guys shoot an anvil straight up 100 or so feet into the sky at burning man few years back.
Was super cool to see.
It sure what they used to create the lift off.
A bit of reshaping to make the roof of the holes in the anvils like combustion chambers to direct the blast downwards should help as well as the peanut butter seal trick mentioned.
TY 4 VIDEO! Love from Austria to finland!
Just as a suggestion, maybe try using electrical tape and bind the anvils together. This way more pressure will build between them instead of leaking out the sides right away, until ultimately, the tape will break allowing them to fly apart.
Finer powder = more surface area = faster burn, up to a point. Large gains = less area = slower burn...until the grains get smaller and burn faster!
The 'ideal' situation sees the anvils starting to move apart just as the pressure is reaching maximum.
Black powder muskets have to be 'tuned' to the powder they are burning for this very reason.
An 'ideal' burn with muskets is to have bore pressure still climbing just as the bullet is leaving the muzzle. Accelerate that bullet all the way down the tube.
If the pressure spikes too soon, the bullet will be slowing down in the barrel after the pressure spike has dissipated.
If the pressure spikes to late, the bullet doesn't pick up much speed and most of the powder is wasted out the muzzle.
Loose black powder, in a confined space, tends to explode rather than burn; every muzzle-loading gun requires firm compression of the powder charge to prevent barrel explosions.
I am guessing that a medium-coarse 'cannon powder' would be groovy, but you would need to find a safe way to compress the powder charge into the anvil recess.
Not super compressed, but enough to close the bigger gaps between the powder grains. The flame front moving through the charge should burn through the grains, and not around them!
BTW, smokeless powders would be of no help here, they require massive [20+ bars] pressures to burn fast enough.
Hmmm, fast black-powder to build pressure/heat fast, slower smokeless powder to maintain/build the pressure spike...hybrid charges may not be according to Hoyle...space program...
That's probably why in mining, they use a fast explosive to fracture a rockface but a slower moving one to push it out of the way. The slow stuff apparently has more "shove" .. I think Adam and Jamie learned this in one of their big explosion episodes.
My god Finland looks like a blast - pun intended!
It's amazing what you can find on CZcams !
So, Bigclive mentions how gunpowder was tested by firing anvils into the sky … and here you are doing exactly that. Awesome!
Haha i love henri and his intros 😀😀😀
Greetings from the international space station!
Conrad Kenneth no way
Just another crypto channel he keeps saying it, like we can’t just go online and see who is up there and who actually went up there. Sad.
ISS: Huston, we got a problem.
Huston: ISS, what is it?
ISS: We just had an anvil pass through solar panel 4-13e when we passed over Finland.
Huston: ISS, come again?
You say that now, until you get hit by one of these anvils 😁
"finnish space program" is as efficient as SpaceX:
comes back landing on feet first, is re-usable and is fun to watch
one step nearer o mars - you should patent this ;)
Henri must be a cool guy to hang out with
Very nice physics lesson Lauri. Pretty good.
We been doing that here in Arkansas for a while, glad to see it happens in other places in the world. Anvil shooting is the best.
Loved the video guys!
Put peanut butter or grease between the anvil surfaces around the powder chamber as a sealant.
Seal the two anvils together with glue around the powder chambers
I See the title of the Video and think.... Henry from sox there... must-funny comments and flying anvils! Must be good!
Now i watch the Video ;-)
Best yt destructions channel! 💯
START DOING THIS MORE!!!
IT WAS AWESOME
Big clive just uploaded a video 5h ago wherr he explained how people used to blow anvils in the air to show how good their gunpowder works. What a coincidence!
You are the only Finns I know at all - I hope they are all (sort of) like you !
Anni was clowning in the beginning hahaha
"We are not cheaters in Finland" "And we are professionals cuz we get paid for this"
A friend made a bet me $20 that I could not get kicked out of this one store a second time by this really strict employee who was kicking a lot of people out, so I made an ez 20 bucks, Therefore after seeing this quote, I have came to the conclusion that I am a professional at being kicked out of stores for profound reasons. ( I was originally kicked for pressing buttons on an atm inside the store)
One of the best videos. Loved it.
Not gonna lie....thats really effing cool !
7:19 That bird at the top of the screen was like WTF!!
"This is the new way to remove paint, gunpowder blast. It’s a bit like sand blasting, but better" Ya, definitely on the entertainment value as well ;p
Lauri is a low key genius
“Don’t try anything like this because it is really stupid.” 😂
The problem is the gases are escaping from the gaps on the sides as soon as it builds enough to pressure to raise the anvil any. You need to find a way to hold the anvil down longer but not too long otherwise it will turn into shrapnel like a grenade. You need more of the gas pressure to buildup before the anvil rises to release it. Maybe weld some small tacks on it to hold it for a little bit until the welds break. That's why guns have any type of the barrel on them. It gives the gunpowder time to burn and build more and more pressure until it pushes the bullet out of the way.
Glad to see the return of the Finnish Space Program. Maybe the next vehicle can look more like a rocket?
Iron Sky quote:
"Who of you does NOT have an armed spaceship up here?"
sheepish looks around...
Finnland raises its hand.
Stuntman came out of it just fine
this should qualify as part of the Finnish space program seeing as you are launching these anvils almost to space with a controlled explosion
Finnish Space Program. Love it!! You got a subscriber 😎😎😎😎
maybe building a frame around it to act as a barrel, so that the energy from the blast doesnt escape to sides but is directed upwards? essential craftsman did this pretty well.
getting an anvil to the balls with the help of gunpowder is pretty scary, but the stunt dummy in 10:04 took it like a champ.maybe dynamite next?
