“Side Show Science” On this episode, Ryan and Amber come to my Prototyping Shop to enlist my help to build him a hilt for a sword to handle a certain unknown stress for a New World Record. Unknown to me, the stunt involved swallowing a sword, attaching cables to the hilt and a car and then dragging it 5 meters. When you watch the episode, you can see the look on my face everytime he swallows the sword my stomach turns. We used a Load Cell to establish an Inertial Frame. What he did, pounds per square inch, was a far cry lower than what I believed it would take initiate the cars motion. |
