I hope that the pork, ham, and bacon on that pig wasn't good!

@MistressVixen HELL NO! DEFINITELY NOT!

@thetrickster012 as real as you can get...it died before Mythbusters got to it, so it's not like they killed a pig.

thanks guys, now i know what to pack my cannons with when i become a pirate!

That’s what I mean chain isn’t much good for taking out pirates if it risks taking the whole ship with them.

@darkblood626 Chain shot was strickly an anti-personel weapon, its use was to clear an opponents decks of sailers, gunners, etc, anyone that could offer resistance, chain shot was also used to tear up the rigging of sail ships and render them uncontrollable. The object was to capture the ship as a prize, sinking a ship was worthless to pirates as they couldnt capture any cargo, resell the ship as a prize to or reuse it by other pirates.

What I would like to know is why bother with cannon balls at all in fact that could make a cool mini myth pit the chain again the cannon ball
Just seen what it does to a pirate
Would it do more damage than a cannonball to the side of a ship?
And a ships mast

@desdes24 Would you rather be the one they tested that on?

@Onlera33 As far as I remember, it was called "Pirate special 2".

From the title, I thought both the pig and the chain would be fired from the cannon simultaneously.

@RecycleDucks lol, never thought of that. I think I might re-name it "shooting a pig with a chain fired from a cannon" so that there is no misunderstandings :-)
