Did you just shoot a chisel or screwdriver out of that thing?!?!?!?!?

Think less dangerous ammo. It wouldn't take much for that thing to hit a bit crooked and come bouncing back or in any other random direction, and chisels won't stop very fast hitting only soft human tissue.

In the vid you don't spray much fuel in there, what are you using for fuel? I bet you could get a lot more power out of with a longer shot of fuel. Of course I think the ammo was loose as well and that could explain part of it.
