    With my vast knowledge from years in Kerbal space program working with rocket science, I thought it was obvious from the first test that flew into the air that they should have reduced power a lot. Sad that we didn't get to see if the aim was good for 800ft, would have made a great shot. Still great episode, miss this show.

    I always wondered why they didn't compress the bottles in the wine launch. Each action has an equal and opposite reaction. Compression increases the velocity of the launched cork by focusing the release of the expanding gases FORWARD. Increased velocity, increased distance.

    That was a shame. The "torpedo" was a "Lifting body" without elevators in the tail, which caused the front to rise and the rear part to rotate backwards. The same thing happens to airplanes if the center of lift is much further forward than the center of mass this would cause the airplane to rotate backwards.

    I just love the contrast between their designs, style vs simplicity

      Simplicity usually wins, too. Reminds me of the paper crossbow episode, where Adam won by making a very simple base design that managed to look stylish as hell too once he finalized it.

    Mwaaaah, the French... champagne has always been celebrated for its excellence. There is a California champagne by Paul Masson, inspired... by that same French excellence. It's fermented in the bottle, and like the best French champagnes, it's vintage-dated, so Paul Masson's superb...

    Anyone know why this channel and banijay dont seem to upload episodes from seasons 2-4? Its only season 1 or like 5+

    • @AdeptusCaeiusIII
      @AdeptusCaeiusIII Před 16 dny

      Upload schedules. Some episodes seem to not have functioning audio. Some had playback errors. Sounds to me like they've got editing staff working hard at fixing some of the issues.

      Doesn't really matter. This channel is actually the sub channel for such content from Banijay. Some cannot access videos on Banijay due to geographic restrictions and this channel allow viewers to have access on that.

    • @AdeptusCaeiusIII

      @@ichiroutakashima4503 I think they're pre-releasing some of them on Banijay, and then fully releasing them here. That, and they have the editing staff putting in work on the audio issues some of these videos have.
