becarefull i say more or less the same and i have about 15 sore loser that stand behind this beautiful video .waste of time . 5 days to make an arrow that the only purpose was bauncing on water but it' did not do shit.

@@tutunci ok

Kyle Napoleon best comment subbed 🇬🇧

I second your analysis.

It's for hunting waterfowl that are sitting on the water.

Me too

Me three....dude

😂

Me four 😁

Hey, good to hear this! This kind of arrows have been used by many different peoples around the world, so this might have been the away around there as well. And many different groups have been around carpathian basin in the past so influences and inventions have come and gone.

@@UgriArcher - Yes, the arrow skipping method was mentioned by archeologists, and I suspect they based it on ethnographic descriptions of other Finno-Ugric people (maybe the Manshis or Hantis). The arrowheads are from old Hungarian sites from the time they came into the Carpathian basin. I don't know if earlier people here (Huns, Avars etc.) used this type of arrow. But it was a swampy area with lots of waters, so the opportunity was there.

Yea 😂 It's finnish tho

Welcome aboard, Al.

Great! And thanks for the compliments. I also learned at some point about Qing "water arrow" and it's very similar design. I've been thinking of making reconstruction of those arrows too to see how they'd work with my Manchu bow.

​@@UgriArcher I'll sent a email attach pdf file of 皇朝禮器圖式 the 14 volume, with my translation in English. Looking forward for more videos from you.

According to this literature, the arrow shaft is made of poplar and applied with oil, the length is about 103 cm. The swollen part is made of pear wood, about 3.5 cm long. The arrow head is made of iron, with length of 1.65 cm and width of 2.45 cm, in a shape of chinese traditional shovel, which is crescent-like. The fletching is collect from large birds of prey, and with four of it on the arrow (untypical, I'm not confident with my translation. ). The nock is applied with red lacquer. Those words was wrote in classical Chinese, I can't be sure that the translation from me is totally correct.

@@88573426903 Thanks for the pdf and the TL man! Your translation really helps. I wish I can read Chinese, this book looks interesting as hell

@@iamM4SK Well, most of the time I don't see what the big thing is about it sounding weird, but I do get how incredibly difficult it may be to speak and learn :D (I'm Finnish)

Tolkien actually based some of elvish language on Finnish. He was greatly inspired of it, and finnish folklore too.

@@UgriArcher Ah so you're speaking in Finnish?

Yes.

Happy New Year to you too, and thank you for the compliments. And yes, your observation is correct, it's me.

@@UgriArcher Cudos, fantastic game! Keep us dreaming!

It's hard to say how fast the impact reduces to non-effective, as it surely depends on the strength of the bow. The bow I'm using here is around #40 and it seems after three or fours bounces it would be pretty shallow impact, but using eg. #80 bow or so it's surely different. The head is sharpened so it's designed for piercing wound.

Nicholas Scott algorithm brought you here too? Tervetuloa! Finnish is an awesome language.

That's pretty neat! What part of GA?

Finnish is like that. My grandmother and great-grandmother (who was from Finland originally) would speak Finnish to be able to talk without the rest of the family understanding.

Of course.

Ugri Archer would it make sense to tie a fishing line at the nock to get it back easier?

Skip....skip.....bloop. Wow, right in the blowhole! Is anyone here a marine biologist?

Seen more than one lately?

Me too, its like a crazy love child of German, Latin and Arabic. Maybe a little Italian?

I can relate. Those were great times.

Thanks and thanks for the sub. This took quite a long time yes. I had an assistant with the canoe, luckily.

This guy gets it. The prong is a really clever design too. I'd like to see it shot with a heavier bow though.

All the wooden arrows will float just fine without bulb if they don't have overly large metal heads. So here , with light bone head, it's not needed for the floating purposes at all.

@@UgriArcher - I wonder, if some of those arrows were also made of reed/cane.

When would it be useful?

I don't think most people even knew it existed until now.

@@TrustTheFund WHEN WOULD IT BE USEFUL?!!

@@hughtheman9217 You got some dudes swimmin' in the water, and you're like (shit, how tf do I hit them). You open yer inventory and craft some o' this shit, whip it out and fire some skimmers so you don't need to worry about your vert. aim.

Hi there fellows, and thanks!

eqlzr2 corn would’ve been a good idea, except it didn’t exist in northeastern Europe. Corn was cultivated in Mexico, and this was a time when people were still using bows and arrows to hunt.

@@baby_king9ine Ah yes. Good point!

Good question I want to know too, maybe they had hunting dogs like retrievers

I used my trusty old canoe.

@@UgriArcher could you use fishing line for retrieval?

It sounds like a lagging mic in an online game

Ghost of Bla bla bla, it seems like it’s a joke, like he’s just making it up. It’s like there is editing that repeats the same sounds. I love the Fins.

@@dozer1642 Not a joke, he's speaking Finnish pretty formally, like in a lot of educational videos in Finland. We do speak somewhat differently in everyday life obviously with small regional differences but this form or "accent" is called kirjakieli or yleiskieli. The rough translation being common tongue I think

Hehe. Indeed. These references are great when you know where they come from :)

no 1 arrow would be stopped by one bird

Thanks!

Thank you, Clint! It took a while but I just had to. :)

I'm with You Man...We know too much Now.

Thank you!

@@UgriArcher thank you master for reply🙏 thank you from bottom of my heart 🙏

Thanks, Spencer. Fletching profiles seem to have varied a lot in these, but they haven't been particularly short to my knowledge. Shooting technique matters a lot as to how it actually bounces so sometimes you get less optimal result. I counted eight bounces a maximum with this, but I believe after third or fourth bounces the impact energy gets so low that it's not too efficient anymore. But the ancient bows have been quite strong too, so if this was shot with say 70-80 pound bow the bounces might be higher and longer. Lets see if I can do real floating target test shooting this summer.

The dam buster were spun up to run backwards before the drop to actually slow the bomb so it doesn't hit the dam wall and explode. Remember this era of scientist was all about new progress, ignoring old methods. Truth be told, the odds of an English or American scientist even knowing of the method is miniscule, since they shot their water fowl on the wing for nearly a century at that time.

Thank you, Charles.

With a boat?

​@@nucleardestruction11 every time he shot an arrow in the vid he went on a boat to retrieve it? I believe he might have some of those arrows :/

I used canoe. (And assistant)

Canoe.

@@UgriArcher oh cool, I'd figured it sink by the time you'd get to it but i don't know much about arrows or archery so i thought I'd ask. I bet the whole process was very relaxing. New sub here for sure

@@richardb2942 Look elsewhere in this comment section for dumb questions.. yours was NOT, it is relevant and polite:) The arrow is made of wood, and will float:)

It floats, yes. Even the regular wooden arrows float just fine.

There is a joke in Germany about a guy in prison, sentenced to death. The priest asks if he has a last wish. The prisoner says: yes pater, I want to learn Finnish

TheFusselmonster 😂😂😂

@@TheFusselmonster das ist ein interessanter Scherz, aber kann ich glauben obwohl selbst Deutsch sehr schwierig ist hahahahaha

Yeah, it floats, and naturally it needed to be recovered after each shot. Luckily I had an assistant and a canoe.

By canoe. Simple as that.

what language is he speaking?

@@Armadyllon Finnish

At first I was like he's talking Estonian with very southern Setu accent, but after 3 seconds i realized its Finnish. Thing is that Finnish, Estonian and Hungarian are all from Urals languages/ "language tree". Just Estonian and Finnish go under Baltic sea language branch or "Balto-Finnic", at the same time Hungarian going under Ugric branch. But there are faint similarities, that's why you thought about Hungarian first. www.american-languages.org/608 - a little scheme that explains it

@@domb6015 I am from Brazil and moved to Finland almost 9 years ago. It's a pretty hard language to learn. Since there is pretty much nothing like it, besides Estonian and Hungarian maybe.
