Silence peasant! Guards! Take this scum to the gallows and hang him by his devilish tongue! (whispers to guard: seriously though don't hang him by his tongue, it's not effective, the neck is a way more effective appendage)

So, I gotta wonder... What happened to the sledgehammer?

[–]Rrory[!] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Saw this long time ago. The hammer went fifty feet in the air. Landed in a group of people and hit no one. They were making the explosion by taping lighters to the hammer head. Then striking the metal plate on the ground.

[–]lordlicorice 0 points1 point ago

But the hammer didn't hit the plate.

[–]heydonms 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Ummm...I'm fairly sure those aren't lighters.

Butane gas will make a nice fireball out in the open, but launching a sledge hammer would require a combustion chamber and long barrel at the very least.

They are using an impact sensitive explosive based on chlorate.

That's cool bro. I had this idea for a movie years ago. I'm still waiting for someone to crawl into my head, figure out what the idea is, and make the movie so I don't have to ask someone to make it because dammit film makers should just fucking know.

what exactly is going on here? do you have the source? cool gif anyways!

[–]MallowMar 9 points10 points ago

I'm not sure what they are celebrating, but it's some sort of Mexican tradition where they actually attach explosives to their hammers. The man in the gif appears in this video.

That is the most retardedly dangerous, yet awesome thing ever.

OMFG that is a perfect metaphor for reddit submissions. 50 disappointing pops and one unexpected out of control hammer launch.

[–]Chopsticks613 0 points1 point ago*

No they put the explosives on the ground, and hits it with a hammer.

Edit: I stand corrected.

[–]heydonms 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Watch the video, the first minute consists entirely of them taping the explosives to the hammer. The thing on the ground is just a metal plate so that they have something solid to hit against.

Gotta try that on someones face. Place your bets now, who gets hurt the most? A-The bitch who gets it for making the arrow in the knee jokes B-Me, for improperly swinging it C-poor sap who gets the rebounding hammer D- FUCKING EVERYONE.

[–]0sseus 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

who gets hurt the most? the bitch gloating about being an asshole? or the people included in his half-assed juvenile threat-like post..?

[–]BaronLaladedo 0 points1 point ago
