there blanks dude there blanks

I'd rather load AP and aim at the HMS Belfast. ^^

When the queen is 200 years old she will have sat on the throne for 175 years which I guess would mean they will fire a 171 gun salute and that will take a little over 28 minutes to fire.

they will have automatic guns by that time so they'll just put them on burst

JAMES K we already have it like mp5, tommy gun, ppsh, bizon etc.

This didn't age well.... Like the Queen

The Falkland 'WAR' did not happen. It was the Falklands 'CONFLICT'. No war was declared and it was NEVER referred to as a WAR when It happened.. I know why too. But people on here are all too asleep and brainwashed to see the truth about BLUFF cove & GOOSE GR33N.

They certainly was no 'WAR' at all. 'WAR' was not declared hence the reason it was called at the time a 'CONFLICT'. Learn your history, I was around then.

You are obviously unaware of the 33 code and the Bird code.. So you will never understand.

Not a WAR.

I said it was a CONFLICT not a WAR. Yes, do write that down. Because it is 100% historically accurate. Are you attempting to block my right to Freedom of Speech btw?

What?

I like that, I like that alot.

Oof

Matsimus! Nice to see your comment here :) Love your video's and glad to see you had it well in Canada.

Do ypu know why they say 'fire' twice? I got really curious

@@viniciusteixeira4312 Ceremonies they have more of everything, more gunners, more commands, more everything. But it's likely some sort of confirmation thing.

@@viniciusteixeira4312 I remember, there's a commander who gives an order to the guy below him, and he gives the order to the gunners

nice? spending millions of dollars on a person that does nothing for the country? because it has "royal blood".

Julian Grimoldi get a life

i already have one thanks.. the people who sucks the royalty balls should get one

Julian Grimoldi That same person who bring in 500 million alone from visits to Buckingham palace, not counting the rest of the money she makes from other palaces and tourism. So frankly what I am saying is shut the fuck up.

Yeah compared to some uploaded footage on YT, you can tell the editors here have turned the bass way down.

The crumbling city towers across the river were awfully upset they weren't dud shells

Boom Stick 617 aaah but these boys don’t need a spare as they don’t mess up

@@kim98677 better than needing a spare gun

somewhat similar but with less flash Staying on time in real fighting is very important to make sure that you get as devastating effect as possible down range

Paul Dietrich it will be tea. A brew in the UK is slang for tea.

I'd alarmed at that statement being that you're part Welsh as opposed to being American. Living in North Wales as I am will tell you that the Welsh have a much stronger sense of republicanism than any American I have ever met.

No one cares where your family is from. Never understood why Americans constantly bring that up, it's about as useful as saying your dad was born on mars.

Darren Pene Junior Pati I believe it would be possible, but horribly inefficient.

It would slow down the fire rate and increase the likelihood of misfire/accidents. Be careful not to sub-optimize, there's usually a reason for most of the parts when it comes to artillery.

doesn't work like that

Only if the gun is already in action. Would be impossible without mechanical aids to bring the gun into action with only 2. At times the gun has to lifted and its just shy of 1500kg.

Sgt Labalaba famously continued laying and firing a 25-pounder singlehandedly at the battle of Mirbat; a different gun with different drills, of course, but in principle a gun can be operated with fewer. It’s just nowhere near as efficient, having to run around doing different things in different places in sequence. With this system, arcane as it looks, they can all continue doing their thing while other stuff is happening; preparing the next round as the gun is firing, and so on.

Liam Murphy you really think those guns sound like that? Sounds like a nuns fart. Those guns firing irl, well, you’d certainly know about it. They fire blank rounds, just for looks, they would never fire live rounds in something like this, it ain’t safe

the guy even mentioned that those guns are unable to fire live rounds anymore

Anthony Loiacono no because they are firing blanks. They mention it loads.

WoodsyOnTap wrong side of the river but sure

One can dream.

One can dream of one "clumsy" recruit accidentally loading the gun with a real shell

Kappatalist RIP the Shard.

explained at the start.

they fire 21 guns for the queen, + 20 extra because the Tower is a royal palace + 21 extra because its located in the city of London . they know how to do it in style :D

@@bjrnmadsen1724 That's stupid. Pompous much......

W h a t I f s o m e o n e l i v e s b e h i n d t h e b u i l d i n g ?

The rounds would come back down somewhere? Plus what if you have a misfire inside the city lol

Did you not listen at all?

they cant really pick em up immediatly tho can they?

oSJme these are blanks being fired which have a lot less accelerant.

They need the "Loudener" like Homer Simpson has one for his gun ^^

Audio recordings do not have the range to capture the true sound of artillery. Compare the sound of fireworks experience in real life to news reports of the same event. Also Hollywood has distorted people's perception of gunfire; especially handguns and rifles. The sounds in movies are very much drawn out and given deeper resonance, where an actual gunshot is more like a firecracker. A very quick and sharp sound.

JustBlazin' they're disciplined so that in a combat situation they don't panic. They execute their orders efficiently and with minimal casualties.

r/woooosh

JustBlazin' ok sorry but there was someone who said that seriously.

oh ok

waste of jizz

They land in the countryside. Most of the time they don’t hit people, but livestock beware. Once in ‘73 I believe they accidentally hit a boarding school, killing about 50-60 children.

Ok

They are blanks

Probably because of camera limitations.

Aeddin Lewis I cant tell if you think that’s bad or not

It's because if they made it any louder the crowd would need to wear ear protection which would be a liability they explain it at some point early in the vid

Also... they're obviously not shooting real projectiles. I don't know if they do that in America, but for one they probably wouldn't shoot projectiles in such populated area. A projectile would create recoil, and the projectile traveling through the barrel would make a loud boom sound aswell.

Henrik Nørr no they do not fire off ordinance when doing this. They just load it to the top of the canister with gun powder

gun powder has been limited to not cause ear damage.

Ya I get that part, Its the word ear defenders just struck me as sounding really weird. I guess I am just used to the North America worlds ear protectors or ear muffs.
