it would be more scientific to make a series of experiments on the padlock, as hey might just had some sort of lucky hit^^
i dont think so. there arent any tornados where i live. dut it can hold quite a bit of winds
@equallyeasilyfuqyou You’re probably right. I did a search and a .30-06 Springfield cartridge can go up to 58,700 psi. The highest powered rivet gun I was able to find on Google was just close to 5,000 psi.
But then again, the bullet’s momentum would slow over distance, whereas the rivet gun is on contact. I don’t know exactly how many pounds per square inch the sledgehammer and crowbar/chisel combo gives off.
@DoctorWeeTodd i’d say no. it took them a 12 gauge or a M1 Garand to punch out a lock before.
@adugzzz353
Is your house tornado proof?
thats a crapy house. i live in a 2 storie house with a basement an an attic where sealing/flor is at least 20 cm solid concrete thick. i bet the water heater wont penetrate that
@robertkrosl
sherlock getting raped by captain obvious (>_<)
@DoctorWeeTodd Oh yeah u might wanna submit that one : )
@robertkrosl You’re right, but I think you misunderstood my point. I wasn’t saying that the rivet gun used liquid nitrogen. The experiment here is about bypassing locks using an unwieldy pressurized tank. Using a rivet gun would be similar.
@DoctorWeeTodd Liquid nitrogen?Wasnt that compressed air?
you could maybe…kick throuh the door?
done properly, under 10 seconds, a lot less than liquid nitrogen…
The liquid nitrogen myth brings to mind a plot device from “No Country For Old Men.”
Would a rivet gun used for slaughtering cattle simply punch out a lock?
I wanna see them test that out.
That’s the key word. Exploded.
I’m willing to bet that the failsafes worked as they were supposed to and allowed a colorful but not catastrophic failure. To get the Mythbusters’ results you have to actively make a heater about as unsafe as possible, as in, disabling or capping the release valves that are supposed to prevent this kind of surface-to-air mayhem. Even pressure damage to the cylinder body means that metal stress or a bad side seam did it in, as opposed to the end welds in this model
pirisoner: oh prison guard, could i borrow some liquid nitrogen a crowbar and some sledgehammers for my inmates and me to play with?
3:01 just use the sledgehammer on the wood smart one
Well it would FULLY confirm it. lol.
omg are you serious ??? the mythbusters want to confirm or bust myths !!!
you want them to test boilers of about 25 brands and every single product line of @ least 30 years ? not talking about the other details like boiler-fixations blablabla…
seriously, are you stupid?
And for houses I’m considering the whole USA and not just California. Apparently the building code in California doesn’t require as strong of a house as in Philadelphia, PA in my area.
So then when my grandmother’s exploded, why didn’t her water heater make it out of the basement?
do the math 1st.
the forces are so big it theoretically would go through a 3ft concrete wall like a hot knife through butter. to stop it or even to change the course you need at least a 1.5cm thick steelplate with a min weight of 9 tonns …
For their specific area.
@DeltaPhi79 they did it to building regs
**it
They still kinda did the hot water heater wrong here. Although they did get the ceiling and floor, a lot of houses in different areas have another room above that ceiling where it could slow down. That ceiling would have another floor on in.
She said ductility. She said it fast though. It sounds like “dectility” but if you hear someone say “duck tape” really fast, it can sound like “deck tape”.
