  • Propane and compressed air?! Dude that is awesome. I should have known you could get those kind of results with air only oxidation and enough input pressure but I just never considered it.
  • @sheetsda
    Some questions for Part 2: - The result of the different nozzles. - A measurement comparing force output with and without ignition.
  • The backyard scientist is becoming more aggressively unhinged every year and it's fantastic
  • @seanbaskett5506
    That was IMPRESSIVELY stable combustion for a DIY project. Well done! It'd be interesting to see one with acetylene, if you are brave enough.
  • @sneugler
    Those are super impressive results for how crude the design is
  • @babayaga6662
    Shock diamonds, while cool, mean that the nozzle is over expanding the exhaust. Try using a nozzle with a smaller bell and you will get even more thrust.
  • @integza
    This is so frickin cool ! I really wanna try this !
  • @maxbarnes9266
    The engine is cool, but can we take a moment to appreciate that we just witnessed a grown man hammer a screw into a piece of wood like a nail. Just take that in.
  • @HKBronc
    My dude, if you have to feed compressed air into the system, you haven't made a rocket. You've made something even harder. You've made a glorious ramjet.

    I'm genuinely concerned for his safety :face-blue-wide-eyes:
  • @SAABSINNER
    He truly is the "Backyard Scientist" 5:25 hammering screws LOL
  • If you ever hear a scientist go “that was a bad idea” it means progress is being made!
  • @Sky-nh3bi
    " i discovered a bolt on the launch pad hope its not important" 2 days later they test the rocket at the launch pad just falls over
  • "This experiment cost a LOT... sooo".... BEST slide into an ad that I have ever seen 🤣
  • What is missing is a static force test comparing the thrust of just the air, vs running. That would show just how well, or not it is actually working
  • @MentalMittens
    Kevin: look at how this rocket engine cuts flesh in half, definitely dont stick your finger in it Also Kevin: gets fingers very very close to rocket exhaust in literally the next shot
  • @Matthew5000k
    This channel is a direct representation of if The Action Lab was actually exciting.

    The dog sitting at the computer with the tin foil hat had me laughing so hard. I don't usually watch the mini commercials but I'm glad I did here. So funny.
