A length of pvc pipe with an endcap on the other end isn't a launcher as he's called it.

Still, interesting in it's own way. I'd like to see rated ABS failing too.

The tests with the .22 don't really apply to us - I've never accidentally ended up with a lead slug doing Mach 1 through any of my chambers - but the dropping is an important point.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

I thought this was going to be the test that was filled with water. 1029psi to break the water filled 2" X 10'. It didn't gernade like the above test. I wonder how many psi's it took to break the piece in front of the carboard?

Whatever his compressor does plus the impact of a projectile/other overloading trigger I'd guess.

Hardly looks like a high pressure hose supplying it.
