    MINEfield vs hoverCRAFT?

  • @FalcoGer
    @FalcoGer Před měsícem +18

    anti vehicle mines also come in magnetic detection variants and anti personal mines come with IR motion sensors or tripwires. The hovercraft wouldn't save you from either of those.

      IDK about the magnetic one the hovercraft cushion might be enough distance to not trigger , but IR motion Yeah , also the tripwire variant.

    • @1stpogo
      @1stpogo Před měsícem +2

      There are also mines that have fine wires poking up through the dirt that the skirt of a hovercraft would hit, thus triggering the mine so again no hovercrafts are not good to use over a minefield

      @@GabrielGreedy I was trained as a conscript to dig magnetic mines and that hovercrft absolutely would trigger it. We were trained that we couldn't even have shovels near the mines after activating them, hundreds of pounds of steel mere 30cm above the ground is not far enough to avoid triggering them.
      And if one makes a complete fiberglass/wood/plastic hovercraft, it's really not vehicle suitable for frontlines and combat....

    Think about the physics, if the truck is moving at exactly 60mph in one direction and the ball at exactly 60mph in exactly the opposite direction the ball MUST drop vertically. If that does not happen then one of your speeds is inaccurate . simple as that!

      Obviously, once you understand the physics - but these myths exists because not everyone does. Sometimes, unless you do the maths, it can even seem illogical. And a lot of the myths are just really fun experiments :)

      ​@@olenilsen4660 Mythbusters are terrible at science. Their theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, their methods are sloppy and their conclusions are highly questionable.
      They actually concluded WITHOUT math that a 40g rock traveling at 400 feet per second has MORE energy than a .357 Magnum bullet traveling at 1400 feet per second.
      Math tells us that the magnum bullet would have 3x more energy.
      They also concluded that women could throw a ball the same as men... By comparing two pitches using two completely different techniques.
      You shouldn't rely on any of their conclusions.

      They've said that they aren't friends but that they respect each other. If they really hated each other, the show wouldn't have lasted as long as it did.
      Also, the producers of these "reality shows" encourage fake conflict because they think it's better for ratings.

      Adam also likes to claim he and Jaimie aren't friends. I think it's more likely he just rubbed Jaimie the wrong way from the start and lost his respect. "We're not friends" really means "he doesn't like me and doesn't want to spend his free time with me". I don't blame Jaimie tbh.
