I'm disappointed by this video. Based on its title I was expecting a solder to sit on a shell and smack its cap with a hammer.

Bugs Bunny an' Road Runner-Styley!

...well fuck me, a ruler and a mound of dirt and a little detonator with some tape! Chinese FTW!

You know what happens when you break the stick off a bottle-rocket and light it?

Yeah I bet that happens sometimes here too. That's why tank cannon barrels are rifled if they aren't firing fin-stabilized munitions. I'm sure this video is selectively edited to give the impression of accuracy.

I wonder what the drafter's ruler was for? Aim? And yeah, I have to think selective editing...

Why do the explosions look like bad CG?

Check out the two at 2:05 elapsed.

They look like they were air burst.
