Gav and Dan try and catch a cannon ball. But not with their hands. That powerful of a glove has not yet been invented.

Pro tip for ballistics gel in hot weather: set it on a piece of glass, cover it with white cloth, then rotate it so the smooth bottom is on the side for filming. Every time you rotate it, it will get smooth on the bottom again.

@@crazialex In 2018, Gavin Free and his partner Meg Turney experienced a traumatic incident at their home. On January 26, 2018, an armed individual, described as an obsessed fan of Meg Turney, broke into their residence in Austin, Texas. The intruder was armed with a handgun and fired a shot while Free and Turney hid in a closet, immediately contacting the authorities for help. Law enforcement responded to the scene, and the situation escalated into a confrontation between the intruder and the police officers in the driveway of the couple's home. An exchange of gunfire occurred, resulting in the intruder being fatally shot by one of the officers. The individual had traveled for approximately 11 hours from Albuquerque, New Mexico, to Austin, apparently motivated by resentment towards Gavin Free's fame and his relationship with Meg Turney.

Great video, but I actually wanted to comment on your sponsor message. When I went through a traumatic event back in the mid-90s, I wasn't quite so fortunate when it came to aftercare. I failed to avail myself of the resources that were available at the time to address my PTSD. I chose a far more self-destructive form of coping (the self-medicating kind) which led me down a very dark road. I've emerged from that highway through the Wastelands (using a similar sort of resource as your sponsor) and I'm so grateful to know that you're doing well. Just keep on keeping on, my friend, and best of luck to you.

Basically someone broke into their house with a weapon and tried to hurt Gavin and Meg. Police were called and it did not end well for the perpetrator.

A guy who was super obsessed with Meg and jealous of Gavin being with her drove a long distance to their home and shot into it while they were hiding. The guy then sat in his car outside until the police arrived. He didn't live. (I heard different stories of that he was shot by the police and that he shot himself. I just know he didn't make it).

the ball it's not getting sucked back, it's being pushed back by the displaced mass of the gel on the furthest part from the cannon. The gel is returning to its original position (elasticity) and pushing the ball back towards the cannon direction. There is no suction, because the cavitation (low pressure region)- bubbles are gone long before the ball is still actually moving. Great footage I love cannons! :-)

3:05 For those of you who are unaware, the "T-1000" is a fictional robot from _Terminator 2,_ which was popular film back in the late 20th century. The robot was shape-shifting and made of liquid metal. When shot, the impact area rippled and reformed, with the liquid metal healing and reshaping itself almost instantly.

I looked it up apparently a "obsessive" fan broke into his home with a shotgun and he and his partner hid in a closet and after the police arrived the person then died from some fatal injuries form either police or himself.

At the edge of the opening for the second shot, once the hole expands, it looks like the gel has a bunch of little fingers reaching out and folding in right before it closes. Very cool! 8:58
