I would heavily invest in the cockroach claymores.
Kinda want to design one now using fire crackers Ngl.
@@snesguy9176 dew it
Snes Guy make a kickstarter lol I’ll invest
Snes Guy firecrackers may be a little underpowered for a cockroach claymore however the design would be the same as a normal claymore. The size of the bbs is a good question though. You could have bigger bbs for slingshots or smaller BB gun size
I think they should put a hydrogen bomb on the claymore
Delaware doesn't exist. so therefore that pic at the end doesn't exist.

Cursed for not getting the Delaware thing is only something used as prank material.
Ahh the Trebuchet. Got an A for having ours destroy another groups during testing in history class.
Well, it *was* very effective.
I built an exact 1/8th scale replica of a box swing trebuchet in middle school.
the curved guns were invented for tank crews, in order to defend against sappers mining or climbing the tank. and they were pretty effective. the intended range was like 2 meters. also used in bunkers to relatively good effect. the periscopes were useless and usually got thrown away.

The Krummlauf basically worked and it was not that much of a problem that the bullets turned into shrapnel.
It was basically intended for short distances, for example if you had Russian infantry climbing on your Panzer you could hose them down with a 30 round magazine fired from the StG44...
I mean... I don’t know of any tankers who got stgs. Maybe an mp40 or mp38
George Bennett there is literally one of them mounted in a cupola meant for a tank at 7:55
Correct, when the target is 100 feet or less away from you it is not a huge deal. At that range the bullet breaking up might help you out in deterring an attack by getting a shotgun style splatter effect.
@@georgebennett715 and that is why they had a 'krummlauf', so they could position the stg vertically while the barrel was still pointed horizontally.
So its basically a dollarstore shotgun?
"Your friends called you a wack-ass and it really hurt your feelers" that line always gets me lol.
"but your cool rail-ridin' friends called you a wack-ass, and it really hurt your feelers"
@@hindenpeter1 thanks I dont know how I missed that
I remember the mythbusters did a thing with the curved gun barrels
Indeed, as long as the bullet has a bit a straight barrel to start with and you do not make the turn to sharply it can work reasonably well.
There's a reason a lot of r&d went into the curved barrel, bending it can cause it to narrow, so they'd have to compensate, forgotten weapons a little while ago featured a bullpup under over shotgun with curved barrels
@@tenofprime the bullet is shaped in a way that forces it to travel forward, in one direction, as quickly as possible. Therefore there is no way to change a moving bullet's path and keep it fully intact at the same time.
@@abelsm6270 so you're seriously trying to convince me that bullets have a narrow shape in the direction they travel? I don't buy it, bullets are obviously short and wide, and only work when shot sideways

The large sound mirrors had microphones in the center, their main failing was that you couldn't tell height or direction, aside from if it got louder it was coming towards you, quieter going away!

Mythbuster tested the curved gun barrel myth. Pushing it as far as 180 and still managed to shoot deadly bullets.
6:13 That's actually not too far off. They have the same shape as satellite dishes (a paraboloid) because they're both parabolic mirrors (this is an acoustic mirror, and satellite dishes are radio mirrors), which reflect all rays parallel to their axis to a single point, called the focus, where a receiver is located. You can see these acoustic mirrors in science museums nowadays.
For the cement ears, actually the chain home system that was later used for the radar towers was actually developed for the cement ears and they just re-purposed them after radar came along.
I' m waiting for reaction to Sam O'Nella about Popes.
Oh, that's gonna be gold lol
there's a device called "corner shot" which was developed in 2003. it has the same functionality as the krummlauf (but with higher success rate and different technology)
If I recall right it is the difference between trying to curve a rifle barrel around a corner and putting an entire gun around the corner.
Kinda. Not the entire gun, the idea was closer to giving a machine pistol a bendi-rifle shaped stock. You only put the barrel/hammer and magazine around the corner but not the two handed stock you held on to safely out of sight. The rest of the gun shaped stock was for the electronics and camera etc so you can aim.

Looks like Sam is waiting for mr Terry to finish
As a former resident of Delaware for 20 years I can confirm that no one eats lucky charms out of a pickle... or anything that weird at all
Now for the magic of ellipses!
“As a former resident of Delaware for 20 years I can confirm that ... one eats lucky charms out of a pickle...”
I've lived in Delaware most of my life and I have never even seen lucky charms in a pickle until now

Quick question, Mr Terry: ever considered checking out OverlySarcasticProductions? I feel like Blue's (Gregory Kerr) vids on historical topics would be right up your - and the channel's - alley.

The point of the horse powered train is mechanical advantage. A horse can only pull so much weight, but if you hook that horse up to a gear system you can apply mechanical advantage to pull a vastly multiplied weight at a cost of acceleration.
Yeah I was thinking there could be something to the use of the incline
Those Acoustic Mirrors are pretty awesome. At the local Science center they have a pair set up across the food court area, and in a recent trip (I had not been there in over 10 years) they were still there, and my kids and I had some fun with them. You can, even with people walking between them and all that noise created by them, literally whisper to one another and still make out what the person is saying across about 100+ feet of noisy cafeteria bustle. (on a side note MEIN GHOT! that had me laughing for about 5 minutes solid.)
I'm from Delaware, and I can confirm we do eat cereal out of our pickles. True delicacy!
This has to be a running joke or something where you all pretend this to outsiders, right? 😂

Love these videos, Mr. Terry! Keep up the good work and keep enlightening us!
"The entire history of music" by Philip Von Kilian is a good thing to react to.
Some time ago, I found a YT channel named Overly Sarcastic Productions (Mostly shortened to OSP) half of their channel is about myths and classic books, and the other half is about all things history. I think that channel may be something fun for you to make videos about.
Have fun
He did make videos about that channel
Just finished rewatching all your Sam o'Nella reaction videos when I saw this on my front page. What a pleasant surprise.
One of the only type of reaction channels I support, this guy gives some extra information with the pauses so plus points for that
As someone who lives in texas, you use to see those big moon lamps around highways and bridges, not really near neighborhoods or nothing
Shawn Woods actually built that mouse trap (plus hundreds of weirder, older ones) in a video, that’s where the black and white photo of the trap came from.
8:00 Strange enough that it in fact worked. The Mythbusters tested it. germany used them, if I remember correctly, to shot allied off and around their tanks from inside, or when they were pinned to a corner.
Surprisingly the bullets didn't broke apart,but came out normaly.
the krummlauf wasn't a failure.
it wasn't made for "shooting around corners" it was made for tank crews to defend against infantry trying to climb the tank, the bullets fragmenting inside the bent barrel was by design as that, combined with it being on a submachine gun, generated a stream of shrapnel that would be lethal enough at close range and the low durability wasn't an issue as tank crews weren't supposed to even get into that situation.
I don't know about the cereal in a pickle, but I know they eat scrapple, so I imagine they're willing to eat pretty much anything up there.
I laughed at snail trebuchet for about 20 minutes 🤣

Shawn Woods made a replica of the revolver rat trap but didn't use a loaded revolver since that would be dangerous and illegal
I saw that pistol mouse trap from Shawn woods channel. He didn't load the gun, but the trigger system actually worked quite well and since a blank is enough to kill a rat I don't think it is as dangerous as it seems. But I guess even a blank might start a fire or something.
Imagine waking up to the sharp SMACK of a snail that was yeeted across your bedroom.
Using an acoustic mirror you couod detect planes approaching the channel.
They really worked.
*10:06** it's cheaper than buying your own train, but you get to use the rail, and move faster than you could on land with just the horses.*
If not it was a worthless novelty that looks particularly interesting.
It has less horse power than a single horse, which is actually 15 horse power.
Meaning it's somehow losing 28 horse power.
Bent barrels on firearms were usually used by tank crewmen to kill people climbing on their vehicles. Didn't have to be accurate as its close range and full auto.
The Acoustic Mirror is the only thing I had heard of before, thats only cause the local (well local-ish for being a two hour drive) science museum had them, had a blast saying a bunch of naughty words and insults to whoever happened to be on the other end
Can you tell me more about the display or what museum it's at? I'd never heard of this before and I'm fascinated lol would love to replicate it on my land someday for fun
@@ItsAsparageese It was at the science center in St. Louis, Missouri. Though its been over a decade since I was last there so I couldn't tell you if they are still there. The center had two Acoustic mirrors set up outside spaced pretty far apart and pointed at each other. You could talk into one and hear what was said in the other.
@@rezkel7404 did they have the bridge over the road with the glass holes in it when you were there?
@@cartaphilus242 with the speedometers? Yeah
I live in the area with the last few Moon Towers in the world, and gotta say they are really impressive up close.
A children's interactive museum in my city has a pair of acoustic mirrors. They are on opposite sides of the main floor on stand with a ladder. You can have a whispered conversation between both mirrors. A old device was an acoustic detectors for detecting mining in siege warfare. They made a bronze, or brass diaphragm them mounted it on a shaft that was set deep into the ground. The shaft would transfer vibrations from mining to the diaphragm creating sound.
This is the most wholesome channel ive seen so far, Please send wholesome videos lol

Those weren't pistols for shooting mice, they were for shooting rats. Like the Viking Rats that are showing up here and there.
I think the pickle thing is a reference to George Washington and how he crossed the Delaware because the pickle is hollowed out like a boat and the pen is like a paddle
"giant concrete ears" I imagined them lookin a tad bit different
I feel sorry for the team who was working on that at the same time as the radar systems were being worked up in secret.
Talk about a waste of time
Its kind of like someone saying your joke louder than you and getting all the credit
Acoustic mirrors may have been short lived, but they were brilliant. You may be able to hear an airplane before you can see it: How do we make it easier to hear? Let's exploit the inverse square law with a parabola (same shape as satellite dishes) to reflect all incoming sounds to a single point and post a soldier there to listen. It was a perfectly human idea. Have a problem, find a solution based off of what we know. Then radar came along and even the people promoting acoustic mirrors took one look at it and said, "yeah, that's much better."
Yeah the idea is really quite brilliant and I'm excited, had never heard of it but now I want to build one or two on my land for the hell of it once I'm building and being prepper-ish XP I mean, why not? Would be cool to be able to hear approaching vehicles from way far away when you're in the middle of nowhere

I just rewatched this Sam O'Nella vid Tuesday night!
Am from Delaware, can confirm, it’s like a childhood initiation into adult hood.
I love that intro, good work.
Often overlooked detail about the Krummlauf, it was ment for full auto weapons like the STG44 to be used inside tanks to kill infantry trying to mount the tank and preventing them from accessing the hatches.
Which kinda goes to show how well tank combat was going for Germany, if that was a major concern
My hometown is Austin, TX. One of those still extant Moonlight towers now gets tricked out as a Christmas tree every year. Some kid that wins a coloring contest gets to press the button to light the thing up.
Mr terry out here plugging the channel and telling you to subscribe, and watching the ads, this man is such a wholesome creator
Those "acoustic ears" had a display, of sorts, at Iowa's old Science Center (before the new one was built). They were several meters apart, and all you had to do was go up and talk to it, and the other person could hear you with perfect clarity. They blew my mind as a kid. I remember the other kids having a blast with those-who needed cellphones with these things around? XD
Fun fact. Wabash Indiana is considered the 1st city in the world to be lit up by eletrical lights. They had 4 arc towers to light up the city.
Mr. Terry is just awesome.👌🏽
I love it when Americans try to pronounce Germam words. They say "the Kruuuumlauf" but it's a SHORT "u". XD
You know it will be a fantastic video when it's Mr Terry watching a Sam O'nella video.
This sound amplifiers actually work fundamentally the same as a sattelite dish only with sound waves instead of em radiation. The dish focuses the waves at a point a little away from dish. If memory serves that little arm thingy on sattelite recivers is itself the receiver for those waves bouncing off the dish.
One other thing about moonlight towers is that the didn't require Edison's bulbs. You could use arc lamps, limelight, or any similar high power source.
Sam O'Nella vids are always fun to watch. I'd like to see more of the Extra History vids here though. The one they did on the Berlin airlift was cool
Yeah I would religiously watch through and take notes on a series of reacts to every Extra History episode, or even like special long overview reacts where he covers groups of EH episodes at a time or whatever. They're a great series-of-serieses and I love the context and framing that Mr. Terry adds to everything. It really helps the info stick for me.
i love the ghost and fallout boy figures up on your shelf
The revolver mouse trap actually works. I've seen a channel that shows different mouse trap designs and even tests them out. The revolver the guy had was unloaded, but it shows it does function as it should.
Cheaper to build than a steam locomotive, but vastly more expensive in terms of upkeep, has much longer and more frequent downtime, uses more types of resources, and lacks power to boot.
The look on your face when the video reached the mouse gun was priceless xD . Who... who really thought that was a good idea?
The Aztecs or maybe the Inca had stone ears. Same Idea as the concrete ears, but carved from stone and way older.
The Chinese use to use clay pots to listen for the ground vibrations of troop movements. The U.S. went electronic and did the same thing during the Vietnamese Civil War.
11:40 I love the fact that everyone tried the reverse ladle with their tongue
I want to play D&D with Mr. Terry
Nice I been waiting for him to do another Sam videos
There's a big channel on CZcams that tests rat/mouse traps and he tested the revolver trap, naturally with an unloaded revolver though but he filmed a mouse setting it off !
The bendy rifle thing has been resurrected as the "CornerShot."
It's an articulated rifle stock you can clamp a pistol into, with a camera looking down the sights and a screen for the wielder to look at.
How did Terry not crack up at the mein God german part??? I die everytime it's hilarious
