  • Those U walls and supported walls models are a brilliant way to show how force transfers over a wall... in the slow motion, we can see that the pieces that took the biggest hits are actually the ones at the back, it's fascinating!

    There was no unnecessary attempt to get 10 minutes, no long intro about subscribing, no filler, no click bait, no voice at all. You delivered exactly what you said in a very entertaining way.

    I just watched a guy shoot marbles at plastic for 4 minutes and I enjoyed every second

    This further proves that lego is a great way of a tank defense.
  • These tests were done on a baseplate allowed to move freely against the floor. This made it so a significant amount of force was absorbed by the baseplate tilting, which is unrealistic in lego war situations. It is very likely that the cannon would have more penetration power if the baseplate were bolted down (or otherwise fastened) to the floor.

    I love this because, although this is still a recorded experiment, I think it's the closest I've seen to you just playing with legos. Like, simply setting up lego walls and attacking them with lego weapons? That sounds like something so many of us did as kids and I'd be lying to say it doesn't still sound fun!

    If this dude was my science teacher, I would love science.
  • @liamdaughton
    Seeing the reflection of the camera in the metal balls was nice

    I find it mighty interesting that it’s more efficient to use single walls rather than any other against tungsten.
  • @arfansthename
    I love how the comment section is just a meeting of different engineers, this channel is really going well, I'm proud of it
  • I’m so glad the findings were included at the end. I really wanted to see them all compared.
  • @RedSarGaming
    As an engineering major, watching these videos gets me more excited for engineering than my actual design classes lol. LOVE THESE!!
  • @Splitfinger709
    Brave knight: so what kind of tests are these going to be? Oh, just some structural tests. You should survive most of the time. Brave knight: ... should survive?

    Suggestion: - Add weight to the ground, so the energy is not lost in it - Double/Triple check when a marble fails, to see if it fully fails, before going on to a stronger one
  • @mmmemebigboy
    Loved that this video just started. No excessive talking/ explanations, just went into what we came to see
  • @krayghan736
    Man I love these things here because they are such good demonstrations of just regular concepts in both physics and engineering lol
  • @zkelethor1929
    1:52 I really like how the initial blow of the ball didn't break the walls, but the recoil from the baseplate resetting back to its flat position flung the walls off of the baseplate haha
  • Very good video , I enjoyed it completely, and best of all: No annoying music, no annoying voice-over narration. Just pure, Lego Engineering and quality Slow-Motion footage 🥰☝🏻⭐️ 🥇 🏆
