Gav and Dan test the limits of millimetre-specific precision by trying to shoot through a large bullet with a smaller one while taking hundreds of thousands of pictures every second.

Honestly, just for the extremity of it I would love to see what a 220 swift would do. They use the same 55gr or other applicable bullet from a 5.56mm with a much larger powder charge. 2300f/s is an acceptable average for a 5.56x45 cartridge from a decent barrel length, whereas the 220 swift gets the same projectile to 4000f/s. I accidentally hit a ½in thick 4in dia. AR500 gong with my 220 using a 55gr soft tip at too close a range when a wind gust blew it into my shot path as I fired. At 50 yards it blew a ¾ hole through the gong with sheer velocity alone.

@@The_Angry_Medic Depends on what you consider to be a varmint rifle. For a bolt-action, "traditional" varmint rifle, the only one I'm aware of is the Savage Model 25, but it is long discontinued in that chambering, and probably very difficult to find one. But if you go with a compact semiauto, there's a few choices. Of course there's the FN PS90, but there's also the Ruger LC Carbine that is much less expensive. Edit: The Savage 25 in 5.7x28mm may not have actually entered production. Some say it did, some say it didn't. Even if it did, it would likely be exceedingly rare and basically impossible to find.

Re: appearance of being liquid. Shooting the standing part of a railroad rail, about 1/2 inch thick steel, the hole was about double the diameter of the bullet, and the inside of the hole had the appearance of being melted and immediately returned to solid. Its color was a dark shade of bluish gray, presumably iron oxide. That was with a .270 Weatherby, a 100 grain bullet at about 3800 feet/second. If you decide to have another go, I suggest keeping the .22 caliber that fits the hollow-point so well, and fire it from a .22-250 or other really hot .22's that can exceed 4000 feet/second. Since you have a .30-06, if you can find some Remington Accelerator ammunition with sabots and .22 bullets, that will get you much more velocity than any ordinary ammunition. That is how they get extremely high velocity with the main gun on our M-1 Abrams tanks, but the projectiles for that are somewhat larger than .22 :-)

I can't speak for every movie studio, but a client of mine was one of the major ones. They simulate what happens using CGI and material properties are assigned to objects to get the 'physics' outcome. They simulate the same thing hundreds of thousands of times (Which takes literally 1 minute) until they get a 'true' movement. Not sure if they did the same in this movie, but I know that's how one of the big ones do it.

@concinnus Ай бұрын

They probably simulated it, but used too low a ductility for the lead. In the movie it shatters in a brittle fashion, like silicon, or I guess very chilled lead. If they'd done the same experiment as these guys they would have animated it better.

@Iceberg86300 Ай бұрын

So they running FEA/CFD simulations? B/c I've always wondered how well a CGI rig can do with FEA/CFD. Running a physics package optimized for gfx chip processing would probably run pretty damn well. (Some still favor CPU core count which thrive on hardware like and thread ripper whereas others love to run on gfx cores)

@oasntet Ай бұрын

Not all CGI is a physics sim. Sims are generally used when you have too many things to animate by hand, like particles of snow or the objects that make up an exploding building. Sims cost more to develop and run, but there's a breakeven point when you have a lot of stuff interacting with other stuff. When you only have two objects, it's often not worth developing a sim for it if you can semi-automatically animate everything with some simpler math.

@Deadlyspark Ай бұрын

@@concinnus True, but you also have to remember that in the movie the other bullet is travelling as well, near effectively doubling the collision strength, which could potentially make the lead appear more brittle with more power being sent through it.

@lloydprunier4415 Ай бұрын

I have watched quite a few videos of things getting shot and there was always people saying the target object needs to be anchored more securely. This has proven to me that it all happens so fast that the anchoring isn't that important. I was surprised how the .22 caliber bullet was flying tail down especially so close to the rifle. You guys never disappoint and the camera technology is unbelievable!

@tachrayonic2982 Ай бұрын

Don't forget the power of a Sacrificial Mirror for capturing footage from the danger zone! You could even put a mirror behind bulletproof glass to see just how much damage would get past the glass, and how much the damaged glass would interfere with the image.

@UNSCPILOT Ай бұрын

Would actually be neat to see the footage carry on until the mirror gets hit too

@jon2922 Ай бұрын

Another good way to test this would be to swap the bullets round. From a physics perspective, there's almost no difference between an object hitting the bullet and the bullet hitting an object. So, why not use some kind of accurately sized but extra long tool steel spike to simulate the small bullet, mount it on a surface and shoot it with the big bullet.

@SmilingDevil Ай бұрын

Physics might object this theory when we look at muzzle speeds of the two different calibres… you agree?

@jon2922 Ай бұрын

@SmilingDevil yeah, that's why I said "almost", but we're already keeping one stationary, so in the grand scheme I don't think it really matters

@courtney5796 Ай бұрын

I thought they needed a backplate for the stationary bullet. A trade-off for the GLARING difference in energy. speed > mass

@declanwilcock7061 Ай бұрын

Or if you can somehow fix the stationary bullet in place by...welding it to the nail or fixing it in the vice or something...idunno

@jon2922 Ай бұрын

@declanwilcock7061 welding would be tricky with it being lead and copper and a vice would stopmit exploding properly Plus, the main issue is that the smaller bullet is too slow and too soft, instead of punching through, it just mushes into the bigger bullet

What a great video. Dan's accuracy was so good and Gav was able to perfectly capture the moment of impact. One scene that I would like to see but doubt it would ever be tested because of the danger is from the Red movie. The scene where John Malkovich's character shoots the tip of an RPG, flying towards him, with a bullet causing it to explode.

Tongues are kind of weird and interesting, I'd love to see something slow motion dealing with tongues. My ideas include: pop rocks on the tongue in slow motion, a tongue piecing in slow motion, etc. I don't know just an idea. I love you guys.

It's good that you pointed out that only one round was in motion. With velocity getting squared in the kinetic energy equation and mass not, that matters.
