  • Ok well if you pointed this thing up, without air friction, it would go 8km, but with air friction, my friend calculated, it would go about 21m high.

  • chuck norris dont need that

  • Comment removed

  • karate chop can cut better

  • Does any 1 know what year this technology come about?...thanks in advance.

  • activate dog....

    bigger dog.

  • Dear Santa...

  • so we can use that water jet as a weapon of war to saw through the tank's armor?

  • @poyt46 I guess so. But you would probably have to get extremely close. So I would rather prefer a rocket launcher.

  • imagine having a water gun fight with that O.O

  • hello good afternoon, put captions on their videos, it is easier to people from other countries to learn and understand the videos. Thank you. Eder Rio de Janeiro

  • ooh god, so thirsty. Got any water?

    "he he, ye......sure"

  • This is kinda wasting water ... 

  • @bridgegood the water and carbide are collected in a tank at the bottom for reclamation......

  • @bridgegood The water collected and used again.

  • @bridgegood

    not really. it's just 3-5L per minute

  • @bridgegood oh you so silly. the ammount of water it shoots out is absolutely tiny compared to the ammount of water you use to shower every day or wash your hands?

  • That would clean plaque off our teeth quite well. Of course, it would clean our teeth from our teeth too.

  • have a bigger version of this on a water slide

  • Cave Johnsen approves

  • I Still don`t get it. Why doesn`t it cut the table underneath?

  • @WWWeres

    They probably have some kind of pool underneath. Saves water too.

  • @WWWeres the primary water pressure is "reduced" by the material thats being routed or cut. Therefore, the secondary water pressure that penetrated thru the material does not have the initual pressure strength to cut or damage the table surface underneath.

  • Lets have a water gun war. I get the jet powered super soaker tho.

  • Imagen that u end up in desert without water only the water of water jet ... & u can't take it out from machine other than the pointed place .... man this is great situation =P

  • wow, it ended up being an ad for the superman movie

  • chuck norris uses that as a shower

  • lets stick this in justin beavers sink!

  • @ 0:42 "leaving the nozzle at speeds of more than 900 mph"........... if thats true, wheres the damn sonic boom?!?!? un-impressed......

  • @ilovegoatsecks There are billions of sonic booms ever second on a nano-scale.

  • i want to see this in the movie "Saw" 5,6, whatever part they are on, this would be so badass in saw, you are going to die because of water it wount drown you but cut through you like a hot machete through butter.

  • it is similar to sand blasting, except sand blasting does not cut steel, it can only clean off the paint form the steel, but its close, :)

  • chuck norris's shower

  • shower anyone ... ?

  • I am pissed off at these ads, even if Lea's sofa shows me how to attract black pussy hair.

  • This would make one hell of a squirt gun!

  • LOL i wana have one so i can kill someone and i bet i can kill a person in 5 sec wit that Xddd

  • chuck norris can do this when he takes a piss.

  • squirt gun from hell!

  • ive used one of these they are awsome!

  • How does the water nozzle not wear out?

  • @TheBetterGame They are usually a ceramic I believe but yes they do wear out. The table you cut your work piece on and the nozzle are the only real sources of wear and maintenance.

  • how does the nozel not wear out?

  • Just like lasers though the tips wear out and you constantly have to replace the bed below your work piece.

  • i want to wash my friend bob hair with that ....

  • Will that cut ur fingers?

  • is the water recycled?

  • @idude09 same q?

  • @idude09 no

  • This is fake obviously, water is only neutral to steel, no super effective

  • @Jaahaah lmao your dumb XD 

  • @Jaahaah dis is not ze pokemon world

  • @codeShima We all live in a pokemon world!

  • @Jaahaah low IQ?

  • Ouch, don't douche with that...

  • why not use chuck norris

  • I have a sliver of wood in my eye...I wonder if that Water Jet could cut it out for me...???

  • washing your hands in that would probably hurt like pokin it with a needle at 900 mph

  • no it would probably literally liquify your hands lol

  • Is a laser cutter more precise than a water jet cutter?

  • @zx169 well a water jet isnt as presice when in a further distance while the laser is still presice in a far distance.

  • @ducaticrusher Actually the water jets are very presice....

  • @dubaticrusher ... actually your right... i did notice you said "in a further distance" lol

  • @ducaticrusher yea but why would you spray it from far away when you could from right in front of it?

  • @ducaticrusher not a problem at all because engineers can place the cutter right on top of the materials that need to be cut. most important thing is that this is a green technology.

  • @presa1200 true that.

  • @ducaticrusher yeah now they even have a new enhancement on that device called the 5-axis waterjet cutter which can move in 5 directions: left/right, back/forth, up/down, angle from perpendicular and rotation around the z-axis. it can be used to cut complex shapes that's really cool. waterjet is capable of cutting materials over 45cm thick, which means the nozzle still can cut things even at a distance like that.

  • i think sand is the best

  • @zx169 for some things yeah. The stream degrades with thicker material, so if you cut 1/4" material it will be dead nuts, if you cut 2" material it will be exact on the top but maybe a +/- 1/32 on the bottom side.

  • styrofoam can cut metal if its fast enough and in a small enough point

  • ummmmm killer look at it eat threw the metal it will just eat flesh like its butter!!

  • you can cut a person

  • i wanna wash my hands in that!

    soo tempted! ahahah

  • So what would happen if you pointed that thing horizontal and shot it across the room, how far would it go? That would be a super squirt gun!

  • so could that cut your finger

  • nah. it can cut steel, but your fingers will be fine

  • @Vic3D yeah go ahead and do that.

  • @Vic3D

    lol... plz go try it... xaxaxa...

    i quess you are american... xaxa

  • @PAPADRED You took him seriously....guess you're NOT american, just stupid.

  • @soocl0se

    nice you are here to help vic3d... so you are american too and stupid.... xaxa... plz stop it...

    he said a bullshit and you tell me that i took him to seriously while i was joking telling him to try it???? omg...

  • @PAPADRED What the fuck are you talking about man, I have no idea what point you're trying to make, if you even trying to make a point. Please don't respond, this is going no where. XAXAXAXAXAXAXAXAXA? Right, is that how it's done xaxaxa??? Fool......

  • @soocl0se

    you prefer loling??? you are begging me to stop?? come on... i just feed the troll who respont to a msg refering to another person... yes... i mean you! xaxa

  • @Vic3D No... I don't think human flesh can withstands 900mph water flow + abrasive carbide material without separation... and usually separation means finger cut off.

  • @Vic3D  lool

  • what the hell are they cutting to make with the water jets?

  • ididn`t know the water can cut the iron!!

  • Well now you know!!!!! Lol.

  • Speeds of OVER NINE HUNDREEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

  • ironic. titanium being cutted by water

  • amen.

  • wow i saw a V8 montage video, and i though that the whole water there was, was cooling water, lol

  • it turns it into a laser? wtf this guy knows less than my mom L.A.S.E.R is Light . Amplification. etc etc. LIGHT not water, duhh

  • he said "essentially" turns the water into a laser meaning it cuts just as effectively as a laser..not literally as in the water somehow transforms into light...much less a laser beam..

  • Oh yeah (:

  • can u be more stupid???

  • the water isn't wasted, it is recovered (filtered and re-used in this close circle system) because of filtering you get the metal back that is cut out by the water and to recover the granulates if used... Greetings from Austria

  • but i thought that was a waste of water!

  • it's so cool! i first saw this water jet in the series of tuning cars, i think the title was "overhaulin"

  • invention enfoiré

  • this is a great invension

  • *invention
