  • We take Georges' T-shirt cannons and potato gun and see how far they will shoot tennis balls. We sacrifice a watermelon, and Georges shows us a cool trick with chemical lights.

    So glad to see Trevor and Tucker again. The comments on Reddit are funny. Hope you both know that you’re missed!

    Trevor was my favorite personality I’d seen on MORR, he’s quick and witty with his comments and always funny. It’s funny to be able to see a bit more of an uncensored humor, yet still just fine for kids (there was nothing in here that they haven’t already heard from their grandad, uncle and I). It feels like y’all can be yourselves a little more, it’s great.

    You should use Tucker as the cannon ball, but if he ever got fired it would be hard to replace a man of his caliber. 🔫

    Trevor, Tucker, and Georges, having fun, playing with fire and tennis ball cannons, hands down, the best stuff I have seen recently. Missed you guys!! Glad to see you back and still having fun!!

    I never took physics. I just wanted to sound smart. That sure backfired. The potato gun cleared 100 yards easy.

    I used to work at a hardware store that was going out of business. We built potato guns in the plumbing dept. Then tested every chemical in the paint dept as fuel. Acetone worked the best. It also didn’t gum up the grill igniter.
    Glad to see everyone back on screen!

      Had a similar experience working at a hardware store, surprisingly. My favorite was high-ether starting fluid.

  • @rcclassiccrawlers4368
    @rcclassiccrawlers4368 Před 6 měsíci +1

    When I was a kid, I used to make those tennis ball canons out of the old soup cans. Usually four cans worked the best. Then I would punch a 1/4” hole about a 3/4” from the bottom, stick a tennis ball in, put a squirt of lighter fluid in the hole and stick a lit match in the hole. It would send the ball approximately 100’ in the air. (Give or take)

  • @kevinrogers7650
    @kevinrogers7650 Před 10 měsíci

    Growing up in the 60's, where you could literally buy dynamite at the local hardware store, for stump removal, we made some pretty good tennis ball cannons. Here's how:
    1) We'd get 4 or 5 steel beer cans and cut the bottoms and tops out of them, with a can opener. We'd have one can we'd not cut the bottom out of. This would be the bottom of the cannon.
    2) We,d tape all the cans together. Nowadays, several wraps of duct tape would work perfectly.
    3) We'd punch dozens of holes in the bottom half of the bottom can. If we put a tennis ball in, it would go right down all the csns, and stop halfway down the last can.
    4) Once we had the tennis ball in the cannon, we'd spray 2 teaspoons +/- of ronson lighter fluid through one the holes in the bottom can.
    5) Holding (not recommended) the tube vertical, you'd hold a lighter near the holes in the bottom can. If you've done this correctly, despite firing the ball vertically, you'll never see the ball again. Sizing of the cans, we found, was critical. Proper amount of lighter fluid, along with it being able to vaporize properly, is also important. This of course is incredibly dangerous and there's a high probability of injury/death.

    In the 70s, we made tennis ball canons out of the Steele soda cans. Then we went to the park, divided up in teams, and had war's. This brings back great memories.
