[rockgod26]

[OohTube]

I think the cameraman wanted to do it, but didn't trust the old man with his camera.

[TomBuhls]

Your cameraman is right arse.

[xanox1981]

@frunlakiso2

awesome!

best comment of the video

[rapala1995]

thats what it sounds like when i drop a duce.

[afrawfrawful]

Not an A-hole, but he should have discussed the detailed facts with the host before filming. Powder type, amounts, Arty types etc. are crucial.

[armyofgoth3000]

is that for elephant hunting or what?!?:-P

[Stophate13]

What's up with the cameraman ?

[bigboreharley]

use a zippo

[Emiluvdrpepper28]

[noughtyJames]

[crazychief9876]

the guy behind the camera is a bit of a prick

[bobcat22227]

that cameraman is a fucking dick

[pyrochemieNET]

camera man is an asshole. 

[parismartinelli2]

Good for Springfield Arsenal for letting us enjoy this very old artifacts; the host very cool and helpful, the director or cameraman need some advice from PR people.

[SirJames811]

the camera guy is really rude

[telekinovice]

marauders are born :3

[hiphop476]

thx for answer,like the signal giver from East West German Border! XD

[realf1rme]

That was not impressive

[uchub]

I saw the artillery man article about this. Its good know something about our history. And I dont think we still have one of those here in the Philippines.

[hiphop476]

what is this,a weapon? part from a old cannon? greetings from Saxony East Germany

[Ryan15T]

@hiphop476 It's neither, It was used as a signaling device. (hard to find any information on it if you don't know the correct name for it, I just remember seeing a TV special about it.) Mainly to fire flares and things like that. I may or may not be wrong here, But I believe that sometimes it was held when fired.

[EPICBANDITO]

camera guy is a douche

[br8nstorm]

would some make the camera man just shut the hell up

[AZIlluminati08]

wowhe is an asshole, maybe hes just mad he didnt get to be on film, its because hes a fat fucking slob loser. should have aimed it at the camera man, sounds like a pedophile anyway, its probably what pissed him off, his daughter wont give it up, well maybe youll get lucky when shes 5 buddy. i hope they fired this asshole,

[syper258]

Thunder mug or in the begining thunder fail lol that was loud as mother fucker though

[mdezeroesucks]

It is just the camera mans voice, if he had a funny or at least higher voice he would not sound so rude.

[srlbbggg]

playdough!!!!!



[DoctorFreeman97]

Honestly the camera man isnt that rude. He's correcting an elderly man using explosives. Now what would happen if he DIDNT help him?...

[codclanable]

lol using wheat to stick it in as a ram

[thewulfone]

I found it to be funny. lol I mean the whole back and forth thing between them. It is typical guy stuff. I guess they must be friends. lol

[uzairsaeed8]

make the camera man shut up!

[SayHay75]

this may be the only video on youtube where everyone agrees on something :D the camera man is an asshole haha

[boggyman10090]

@SayHay75 An that 009 Sound System sucks.

[badboyforlife10195]

I'm gonna kick the cameramans ass.

[zenlikestate96]

cameramans a douche

[Stifle771]

Or Perhaps Used Like A Mortar

[Stifle771]

Actually, I Can Picture A Man On Top Of A Fortress Holding And Aiming It With The Handle....Resting The Butt Against The Wall And Using It Like A Miniature Cannon

[MufasaSays]

@Stifle771

why the hell do you keep using capitals?

[Stifle771]

@MufasaSays Are You The Camera Man?

[MrBilly367]

what was it made for shooting down planes??

[j2bodydouble]

that old guy shoudl not be measuring powder!!!! i dont know it but you should remember what it is i know that and matches yes thats a good idea

[j2bodydouble]

that old guy shoudl not be measuring powder!!!! i dont know it but you should remember what it is i know that

[fyrebyrd301]

what does everyone find so wrong with the way the cameraman acts in this vid?

[kouger21750]

that cannon would scare the crap out of me if i was going to attack a major city.. it would be the last thing i expected

[uaintwright]

Is the camera man john goodman i think it just might be sounds and acts like him?

[NeoNSPETSNAZ]

Honestly I'm starting to feel bad for the cameraman. Everybody's calling him a dick...I agree that it was wrong of him to boss around the fuse man but still we shouldn't be dissing a guy with access to cannons.

[dockwerker]

next time use a zippo ;) oh and knock it over towards cameraman.....

[BrainCreep]

When talking to old FOLKS, the only "thunder mug" they mentioned was the one you had under your bed...

[MrGreyl002]

camera man is a right cunt , AND STOP SAYING FOLKS YOU HILLBILLY PRICK !!!

[NeoNSPETSNAZ]

@MrGreyl002

Bitch I agree that the cameraman is a dick but I DO NOT LIKE the terms redneck or hillbilly. It is like calling a black man a "n*****".

[MrGreyl002]

@NeoNSPETSNAZ ah well ... :) you may not like it but i do :)

[51674]

wtf is this thing for? make a big noise?

[VenemousTurtle]

You see, a common stick isn't a "real rammer", but a broom handle, a.k.a. a polished stick, is. Very big discrepancy, don't mess that up.

[bigsubs1]

and what good is this device for? can u put a cannon ball in it or somthin? yea camera guy was a douche, fuse guy's the man

[geoatv]

very cool, and educational! Thank You!

[witchtelus]

These guys do NOT inspire confidence

[EIIBipolarpig]

"do you have a rammer for that?"

[theclaret]

Cameraman needs a rammer up his arse !!!

[Mrjoecreeper]

The old man was so cool!

[SSFFilms]

Lol FPS Russia!

lol!

[LukeTheDukeOfEarl]

The camera man is in more videos on this channel and yes, he is a fat ass hole. I didn't like how lazy and rude it was when he threw the lighter at the older gentleman. VIDEO GUY SUCKS!!! LIGHTING FUSE GUY KICKS TOTAL ASS! And I bet if they were both in their prime, the older gent would knock the video cam right out of his fat stupid hands....by the way, the reason the lighter wouldn't strike at first was because the idiot camera man threw it into the ground...what a dick!

[pilgrim15801]

hit 4 or 7 to skip b/s

[slovakiak1]

i think this was in pawn stars

[TheCptBush]

[CodWizlad]

OMG HE SOUNDS LIKE THE OLD GUY FROM RED DEAD REDEMPTION. Dickson ? or something, like this if you agree

[OhStylo]

wth tha's what yer call a Handcannon!?

[ipadize]

TURN IT UPSIDE DOWN!!!

[ipadize]

BOOOOMMM!!!

[mjmoto72]

old men with gun powder.. lmfao. i think these guys have been drinking to much "mede" from the thunder mug

[hammerogod]

There is an upper limit to how much powder you can use....beyond about 10 oz it's all not going to burn.

The was the cam guy was talking 8 oz is probably the limit.

Use a finer grain, like fff Black (or Pyrodex) and show the results.

There is a theory that says you can't overfill a black powder firearm...I have never personally tested it....but I have come close.

[deadlychicken69]

Yea bang that shit on the ground old man that will make it work XD

[henrydamaster]

so organised and so unprofessional i love it! HAHAHAHAHA

[MrWoodyLDillbilly]

The camera man is a dick.

[luxcarfan]

Picnic gone wrong

[TheLyreGuy]

[zomgbbqwth]

[Doppelganger100]

[heronblackmane]

[Doctaphil64]

2:45, 4:28

[mennenmike1]

[gatskillz]

the key is, to lean over the opening, when you put a light to the fuse.

[littlebigheroman]

So THAT'S why no one likes the M1A1...O_o

[chickentoker]

[Londonium2021]

[tigermike87]

[K10urtz]

@MrNightshade69 'this is the broomstick model rammer' - broomstick-rammer-man for president!

[doudeman]

The camera man sounds like John Goodman to me.

[juuzo89]

[UpcomingJedi]

@juuzo89 Camera men should not be seen OR heard!!!

[BanditV8racer]

[obs222]

[victor201030]

2:45



[victor201030]

it starts here 2: 45

[lgavin9898]

that guy holding the camera was really rude!

[PaterFrog]

Zoom FTW -.-

[razorpill]

camera man need to stop calling it a weapon, thunder mugs were used for centuries by black powder manufacturers for testing black powder formulas. Since their creation, they have been adapted to several other uses, to include signaling devices, firework launchers and smoke stack cleaners, just to name a few. But never once have they been useful as a weapon.

[chaulky1000]

This Video Made Me Laugh My Ass Off :) XD

[xD12xSiCkNaStY]

LMFAO this is the broom stick model rammer. HAHA

[MattBlytheTheOne]

Use a longer fuse :P Great fun but be careful you fools!

[dwiltb]

[MIGUIFRESH]

WTF sumone busted ass in the begining hahahaha

[Spec0pps117]

It shot directly up...

WHEN THE F*CK IS IT COMING DOWN?!

[100KA]

By the time u lit that thing ..4th of july over !

[moparman240]

@Lojikbom, yes you obvoisly missed something, did you even listen to the video?

[Lojikbom]

I must have missed something. Is it supposed to be a weapon? How on Earth did historical soldiers ever have time to kill anyone as long as it takes to load that thing?

I looked up "thunder mug" online and all I could find said it was a slang term for a chamber pot. Kind of makes sense. I would need a clean pair of drawers if the enemy was barreling down on me while I tried to load that thing.

[logipi79]

@Lojikbom pretty much the first point he makes about it is that it is a signaling tool (ie not a weapon)

[pallepop123]

Be Prepared!!....



[garoto291]

the sound is awesome!

[pepisretro]

I wanted you to blow your head off xD

[Lvduggo69]

That's fuckin cool ! Me likie !

[ToNyPaRkErgospurs]

Wont it come down after a while??

[kreigsmann]

the short model IE a broom handle

[kbent88]

aim a flames are always the death of me!

[13ast1aan]

5:32 ar those playdoh cups :P

[Thordpt]

cut the videos more! Re-do scenes, feels like the videos takes forever like this when you put every error in the final video.

Cut it, watch it, watchit again and again, then re-cut it and watch it until you are pleased.

Don't just cut it once and upload, this movie is utter shit

[vamsterr]

so much bloody want!

[waterchildtera]

6 oz is the max load !

great mortar 

[MetalLabStudios]

I dunno why but I laughed a few times.. Nice job :)

[TheBeerbilly]

some adult supervision recommended

[1861doc]

Standing back and letting the old man do the blowup work, while giving orders. Very brave of you Captain Blyth.

[quaxk]

there's something inherently unsettling about old men toying with middle-age guns, geriatric and gun nuts shouldn't be in the same phrase, also, these gun belong in museums, they're legacy, not toys

[hapelliotte]

@quaxk well martha, we can't all be knitting

[DJonX7]

i'd drink out of that lmfao

[rakita13]

you know that pellets comes downgravitys a bitch

[GerbilEssences]

At least after you lose the battle, you can use that thing to swig beer.

[Dennyboy190]

go near a police station do it in front of the place haha and run and see wat happens

[capoteo96]

Technical difficulties? what this guys like 500 years old

[Auschwitch]

For a minute there it looked like it was a disaster waiting to happen.

(Positioning your head and torso directly above the device while attempting to light it.)

[bombumdam]

The marks say "this device is completely useless and way too heavy for its own good" lol

[bombumdam]

lol what a useless device.

[viggy123]

allways fun seeing old people blow shit up^^

[mcgovern210]

I'm jus playing, you 2 can continue bickering

[mcgovern210]

@01fmfblaster

Munching? Really. You gotta be kidding.

[chicken4247]

'' got our m1 a1 fire starter'' not working.. good old matches!

[lostpacket]

why do people yell "fire in the hole?" It is fucking stupid and has nothing to do with its original meaning.

And when you are making a video SHUT THE FUCK UP when the primary guy is talking or doing something. No one gives a fuck about your chatter.

I second "jackass/dumbass/fatass all rolled into one"

[Sealy57]

No reason that couldn't be used as a small mortar.

[Cubichi27]

great vid guys thx...........

[420yendal]

Every time i watch one of these, i swear to god, that old man with the blue jacket has a death wish. lol...

[Levij83]

@420yendal I know..he's awesome. I especially love their antics. gotta love him. Just some dudes having fun with explosives :-)

[420yendal]

@Levij83 - haha yeah i bet it feels pretty awesome. just a coupla guys shooting off explosives. every mans idea of fun :D.

[tengin1990]

what happen if u filled it to the max with powder of course leaving enough room for the wad

[fishfrizbee]

Hey Nice Transition at the Beginning Asshole yellow on purple come in from both sides you just figured out how to make a video on your computer! Hahaha

[nebulanbloom]

" Look at that smoke ring 4:40 "

[ichdanguk]

play doh containers :D

[shayth]

so u pour the playdough in to the into the beer mug and u push it down with your custom made pushing stick and light the fuse to make smoke signals to your friends? its genius i say!

[jonlee421]

Dude if you know so much about it---why dont you do it..

and stop yelling at the poor old guy

[RENOSfinest69]

[XxpSyCh3d3LicxX]

[Rainasainzmann]

[xjordanx232]

[alexhart1986]

Ha this is the broomstick model.

[madamadam158]

how was it ment to be fired was it met to be held or to be put on the ground and used as a mortar

[Peta016]

every swig of beer is an explosion in your mouth...

[thehateu]

you should so hip fire that

[IVANGROZNEY]

Do you guys sell these? I did a search on you site and it does not come up. I'd like a repoducion as long as it works.
