    I’m so glad we live in a timeline where Adam moved to making more content on CZcams. I just finished the last two seasons of myth busters for the first time and felt very sad to lose the creative energy until I remember there’s plenty of stuff for me to watch with him in it alongside other great people like in this video.

      Jamie Hyneman has chosen to stay away from the screen. He has been making R&D for many people and has been teaching recently.

    We need a combined Adam Savage, Colin Furz and Objectivity collaboration to make the tricycle 😂

      Please don't ruin a good Keith video with Colin "Is it loud yet?" Furze.

      A Furze vs Savage build-off would be spectacular.

    I want the walking cart! It kind of reminded me of Strandbeest.

    The best news is that there will likely be more than one Episode with Adam

    Interesting how that second one looks like a down-wind cart, like the one featured in Veritasium's physics betting saga.

  • @TheStockwell
    @TheStockwell Před 11 měsíci +4

    A crossover of two of my favourite CZcams channels? It's like experiencing bacon and pineapple pizza for the first time (peanut butter and chocolate if you're vegan). 😸

    It's interesting that the cart with no wheels gets short shrift here; now that there's the control electronics to make walking machines possible, robodogs are the go for all-terrain movement, and when the walking cart was dreamed up, really good roads were very few.

  • @billd01rfc

    The walking carriage thing would just immediately buckle. There's nothing stopping the back leg from bending forward completely.

    I can't believe we almost had AT-AT Walkers.

  • @John_Ridley
    @John_Ridley Před 11 měsíci

    You can do a walking device with no knees but there must be some way to lift the feet - if not knees then it needs "hips" to rock and lift the whole leg, then the hips need to be on some sort of swivel to keep the "down" leg from trying to swing sideways, then you need some mechanism to keep the legs perpendicular to the ground, etc. Knees are probably simplest.

    Ask him to at least a make a tabletop model of the wind-driven vehicle?

    • @turkosicsaba
      @turkosicsaba Před 11 měsíci

      Veritasium already had 2 videos in 2021 with wind driven vehicles.
      Their video codes are yCsgoLc_fzI and jyQwgBAaBag .

    @DD-qq8sn Před 11 měsíci

    I was worried for a moment that the 1825 military uniform might have caused Adam some consternation if it dated to the Anglo-American War, but my memory had failed me, that was a good ten years earlier, phew.

  • @stamfordly6463
    @stamfordly6463 Před 11 měsíci

    If my wonky maths is correct then Hudson's tricycle design predates the actual Penny-Farthing bicycle by forty or fifty years.
    He has all the right ideas for a recognisable peddle-powered vehicle nearly half a century beforehand. I feel that this says something interesting about the nature of invention but I can't think what.

  • @donepearce
    @donepearce Před 11 měsíci +2

    Excellent project. Adam - you are going to have to increase the stroke of that crank; it will never move with that gear ratio. And the seat won't get much use - you'll have to stand on the pedals to shift them.

    • @Jbenneballe
      @Jbenneballe Před 11 měsíci +1

      I love how you skipped the part where we convince Adam to build it, and go directly to helping him with the trouble shooting.😆

    • @CodeWeaver
      @CodeWeaver Před 11 měsíci

      @@Jbenneballe I mean, that's pretty fair -- we know the difficulty of convincing Adam to build it is, like, the lowest possible bar to clear. :D

    3:11 I want to take a second to appreciate how Keith is reading the Long S (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_s), a letter shape we don't use anymore. more specifically, he's reading it as if it is perfectly normal to him.
