Every professional that hasn’t made a serious mistake, isn’t a true professional. Certain things you only learn and appreciate when it blew up in your face (no pun intended)
Always better choices than home. If you blow up your house, where are you going to sleep? School, work? Not a problem there are plenty more of those around.
mission failed tried this at home found enjoyable with not blowing myself up by using small bottle/getting the timing down for actually getting the desired result is uhhhhhh neat :)
Now, this project is not your average DIY project, you are playing with Flammable gases and ignition here, so if you happen to try it be extra careful and have a fire distinguisher on your side.
See, but i want to have them hear so someone can cheer when i blow shit up and at the very least my brother would do it. He also got a masters in physics, so he might be helpful during the building process.
My high school physics teacher had a 24-foot PVC-pipe wrapped in chicken wire and steel bands with a gas ignition chamber at one end. We used it to launch various produce over the top of the high school, or convert grapefruits into wet spots on the vice principal's (reinforced) office window.
The version I describe is the "mk II". The burned, charred remnants of mk. I were suspended from the physics classroom ceiling as a warning to always wear safety goggles.
tl;dr: Don't do this at home, you gonna blow yourself up.

Things blowing up in your face is not fun. Leave things like this on the internet, not in your garage.
My man didn't come with a lecture, only the receipts.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Is that a work related customization or recreational?
This one was occupational
Army?
Not military, but military adjacent I suppose
Gotcha. I was at Brooke Army Medical Center, the Army's burn ward.
We need more people like you. Thank you.
I am pretty sure this guy is Deadpool…
Bro woke up from a long nap
Looks sick though
Dudes gonna make a hydrogen bomb
So you're telling me that a potato launcher with hairspray and a BBQ igniter isn't cool anymore?
This is no spud gun. Those will always be cool
Friends do not try this please, you can and will blow yourself up.
Even proffesionals make mistakes eventually, its just a matter of time.
Be safe out there and blow shit up responseably.
Link the instructions, nerd.
Nah bro I currently have a big burn on my hand and I know it fucking sucks.
Yk what dont take my word for it, go watch some colinfurze for some true fuckery and see what he has to say about burns.
We welded car exhaust pipes together to make something like this a long time ago, in an exhaust shop, far far away.
A little too much fuel (acetylene) and it wouldn't ignite. So we added oxygen, pure oxygen, and lots of it.
The base blew apart and nearly missed my hand. I'm lucky to still have it... we have no idea where that potato landed.
Nearly missed....
Meaning it did in fact hit your hand?
My guess is they wanted to say either barely missed or nearly hit and flubbed it
Build a potato cannon nerd they are much much more dangerous.. nerd
yeah at least they’ve got an enclosed space that really could explode lol
Well its a good thing I'm not one of them professionals!

DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME (probably)
challenge accepted
How about at school or work, then?
Always better choices than home. If you blow up your house, where are you going to sleep? School, work? Not a problem there are plenty more of those around.
What if school and work are also great sleep spots.
Ah touche!
Then there’ll be a home but no you to live in it.

Still better character design than Concord.
Looks like the Thundergun from Black Ops Zombies
No idea why they added that sound effect.
