  • Wow its easy to do it that way when the mouse trap car is over half a meter. My school has restrictions, we have to make it equal or less than 50 cm in all dimensions. Fucking sucks

  • i love your design, very simple, but it gets the job done, self or kit-made

  • its weird seeing my physics teacher on youtube..

  • u could make this car faster and lighter by cutting out the excess wood in the middle

  • I think you should grind a point on the tip of the arm and make the little snotty trouble maker kid lay on the gym floor in front of it. Wipe it on a poison tree frog first. I hope this helps.

  • Lol i have to bulid one too, but im gonna make mine out of LEGOS!!! lol

  • Very cool! Use a rat trap next time to get more distance and speed!

  • Cool, Ms. Walker!!

  • I have a question, about how long (in SI units) was the car?

  • holy shit. mine went like 25 feet :(

  • what are the axles made of?

  • i need to get a A in auto

    so can some 1 help

  • @socccerguy99 well my car is gonna be the best and will probably go 60-more feet becuase of the MASSIVE pully sysyem plus a very complicated design of the overall car

  • Yeah I'm building a mouse trap car too but mine sucks bc eddie ruined it

  • cool. i have to build a mousetrap car for my school.

  • so did i my team lost tho

  • thats so awesome, im making one right nowand yea how did you get the string bar to go so slow and so far and advice ?

    good vid !

  • Oh yeah, well I know MR. Walker!

  • gd...haha..

  • what was that a kit you bought at hobby lobby or something?

  • that's cool,

    but its really weird cause I have the same project I have to do but I go to a school in Ontario and my science teacher's name is Ms. Walker :)

  • weird!

    I go to a skool in Ontario as well and my science teacher's name is also Ms.Walker

  • i also have a teacher named Ms. Walker. but i live in ohio =S

  • Omg I have a teacher named Ms. Walker and I live in Ohio too.

    O.o

  • my old principal in kindergarten was Ms. Walker and my 1-4th grade teacher was Ms. Walker lol :D

  • Zomg awesome!

  • SMART! SMART! SMART!

    It actually inspired me...i think it would travel further if the wheels are larger and lighter...like CDs.

    But it's really neat how you extend the stick to make it travel slow.

    Gonna still this idea :P

  • The wheels are CD's. It is light. It's aluminum and balsa wood. If you want speed, you have to use wheels with traction and a much shorter lever arm. Ah, so many questions, and each one brings a new puzzle to unfold. Don't you love this project?

  • yea is this from a plainfield IL school?

  • yes

    but i dun study at plainfield

  • I'm absolutely certain it is the very same high school known for tornado fame.

  • is this video from phs-cc? lol

    cuz the hallways look familiar :|

    but ya i have to make 1

    for physics >:0

  • so?

  • i have to make a mousetrap car for my tech ed. class, any tips on how to make a car as light as possible (less than 20 grams?) AND still go pretty fast AND a long distance? i know thats a lot....

  • Comment removed

  • GAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

  • CAN YOU HELP ME PLEASEEE!!!!

    can you give me alll the info how to build it step by step cuz we have to build it for school and it has to be 30 m!!!

    pls replay asap!!!!

    Thxxx :))

  • just make the body of it, and wrap string around the rear axle, ((might wannna tape it in place or glue)) to the mouse trap bar, while the traps set, then when u release the trap it will pull the axle and make the wheels turn. use thin axle and have big tires

  • how do you get the mousetrap to go so slowly... mine just snaps quick

  • longer pole or smaller axel or bigr tires

  • pretty good car! it went pretty far even though it looked heavey but still and it looked good too

  • what did u use for the pole thats on the mouse trap?

  • wow thats a really nice mousetrap car.

  • nice car, im making a car for aceleration competition, im changing the cd radio (getting mini-discs) and some other mods to make it run fast

  • i hope ms walker dies

  • So how do you catch mice with that, or is the mousetrap is just a component of the car?

  • Are you seriously trying to tell us that your mouse trap car is going 37,920km/h (~22,752mph)?

  • @fgndzst where the hell did you get your numbers from... =/

  • @fgndzst the vehicle starts at about 5 seconds into the video, leaving 43 seconds of run time. The info about the video says it goes approx. 32.5 metres. 32.5 metres in 43 seconds is .755 metres per second. the conversion rate for mps to mph is 1 metre per second = 2.23 miles per hour, giving the vehicle a speed of less than 2 miles per hour, not 22

  • Damn Ms. Walker that way better then mine

  • hey lol that is sooo cool how did you amke it

    is that your school it kinda rings a bell is it from vancvouer BC?

  • Can somebody tell me how ECSACTLY you make one of those!..PLEASSSE??..

  • get 2 10" pieces of wood, 2 3" axles 4 wheels and a mouse trap. Line u the wood next to each other drill 4 holes into the wood for your axles, put them in and put the wheels on. get a mouse trap and take off the rod and hook. glue the trap to the wood.get a ruler and hot glue it to the trap and tie a stringto the ruler. rap the string around the back axle and let er rip

  • i have to build mousetrap car for school and i was wondering

    how do you the big whole in the middle of the CD to connect to the small diameter axel

    thx :)

  • ntohing to say but mrs.walker is hot:P

  • O.k. then smart ass. Make a mouse trap car post a video of it going and see how far it goes. 32.5 meters comes out to over 90 feet. You try and make one that just goes 25 feet. You'll find that it is hard.

    Next time, think before you post.

  • You know what?, theres no point in responding to ballaholic. It's just another immature 12 year old trying to be bad ass on youtube.

  • Ya most likely... I would make a joke about him being from canada but I don't want to offend you too.

  • Same for you also. Think before you post.

    LOL

  • What? I'm not from Canada. U.S. born and raised. Although if they ever bring the draft back I may come over to stay with you guys for a while.
