    AR-15 filmed exploding from bore obstruction/over-pressure at 187,000 FPS

    I've followed Gavin and Dan since they started Slow Mo Guys 2010 and through the video game industry around the same time. They have some of the most incredible high-speed footage of some of the coolest subjects that you'd never expect to see filmed at high speed. A few years back, they fired a 152mm anti-tank gun through watermelons and in another vid filmed a shape charge blasting a hole through a safe. They cover a lot of topics with firearms and are worth checking out, if only for the comedic relief.

    In heavenly love abiding, no change my heart shall fear;
    and safe is such confiding, for nothing changes here:
    the storm may roar without me, my heart may low be laid;
    but God is round about me, and can I be dismayed?

    A couple of Retards with a low budget gun show did this stupid shit on their show before. Loaded a rifle cartridge wtih pistol powder. To me, it's retarded circus nonsense... and reason 10,087 why youtube gun videos are trash.

    I’m waiting for the video where that retard manages to kill himself. He almost got it done with his .50 Cal with a zip gun breech. I enjoyed that one. Would have been better if he died. The world needs fewer stupid people.

    Like TWTR, YouTube itself is a dung heap. But since the majority of people in America long ago outsourced their critical, independent thought process, they will gobble up the low IQ slop that YouTube feeds them, just as they do sodas loaded with corn syrup.
    ”New levels of dissimulation being reached for - and gained – in the faux journalism/gov spokesmen/shadowy ‘intelligence’ nexus which blends together the worst elements of controlled medias, puppet governments, & mafia-led ‘security’ forces, as our ‘post-reality’ era jets further and further away from any remotely real ‘events,’ authentic ‘leaders,’ & factual reporting.”

    It's entertainment, not a technical resource. The video is interesting in that it shows, in slow motion, the left side of the upper receiver exploding outward and the majority of the blast being directed downward through the magazine well. For the over 50 crowd, just watch it with the sound off and add Chris Bartocci's monotonous nasal voice through imagination and enjoy the visuals.

    Very fun watch.

    Given that Coke and the rest have been using HFCS since 1980, few people actually remember "real" real Coke. You can blame it on trade costs and farm subsidies. If we wanted to we could satisfy US demand with domestic production of sugar.

    I honestly never noticed the changeover, but I did notice that Coke from an 8 oz bottle tastes superior to the same Coke from a 12 oz can and that 12 oz can tastes superior to the same Coke from a 2 liter bottle. Sadly "kosher" Cokes only seem to be available in 2 liter bottles, if they were available in cans I'd buy that instead.

    I've had Mexican coke, but I worry more about Mexican quality control than I do corn syrups vs. sugar.

    It's generated ad revenue to f'ing morons and I'm not willing to do that. F'ing morons should starve. I'm not helping them pay for more ammo to do more stupid shit with guns. They are the clown world of firearms and need to be ignored.
