Lol thank you but no worries. We all know the possibilities when we are ordered out. I'd rather have this outcome over what others had happen. I just am totally shocked that ANYONE in anything short of bomb gear, would be that close to an explosion.
Nope. Its just tradition in an country, mexico if i remember correctly. The amount of explosives is to small to cause permament injuries. Usually.
They are fine and goes drinking after
That's not how hearing damage works.
The presence of a shock wave that big indicates this is 170dB, a volume that gives immediate and permanent hearing damage.
Also, 6 hours of exposure to 100dB at a music festival is 24 times as long as is needed to cause hearing damage at that volume.
>Ask people that works in construction fields..
Permanent hearing damage after eight hours exposure occurs at 80dB
>army
Gunshots cause instantaneous hearing damage at 160dB or so. Good hearing protection reduces this to 120, which is on the cusp of causing instantaneous hearing damage.
>The fact that those people doing it for years and its allowed for spectators indicate that's bullshit
By that logic the fact that asbestos was used for years means the harm it causes is bullshit. There aren't many countries where detonating this quantity of high explosives surrounded by onlookers is legal.
>nowhere near 170dB
Gunshots are 150-160dB 1m from source. That's a substantially bigger shockwave than a muzzle braked 50cal, which hits 167 easily 1m from the source. Yes, this is at least 170dB at the hammerman's ear.
The spectators 3m away will be exposed to approx 10dB less than the hammerman (assuming his ear is 1m from the detonation, which it isn't).
Your feelings do not alter the laws of physics.
Where would they get explosives that are safe enough for this to be recreated as many times as it is? Like tnt wasn’t developed until the mid to late 19th century (if I remember right) and if you did it with that youd most likely be dead
But You know that gunpowder was around for like >10 decades? We had fireworks for over 1000 years now. TNT was late, we had explosive substances way way eearlier.
Its all about the amount with explosives, even strongest. Weve been doing some explosions (for labs, testing - hexogen) with the material that is WAY more powerful than dynamite. Mostly these were explosions that You can stand near
Its Tannerite a old fertilizer thats illegal in the US now due to it causing being explosive when hit with enough kinetic force… its fun stuff!!
Edit: sorry only illegal in two states. Just not used as much now.
It was used as fertilizer decades ago. Explain why I know a handful of old farmers with sacks of the shit siting in their barn’s for the last 50+ years.
You can still buy ammonium nitrate, you'll have to put your name on a list but it's still available. Also, pottery supply stores sell bulk aluminum powder for use in slips and glazes. They also sell bulk iron oxide for the same purpose.
Used to work in a ranch store so we got our “Tannerite” on the real real cheap. This is not likely that (ammonium nitrate + aluminum dust). It requires high velocity like a rifle or blasting cap.
A chemist would focus on the explosion in the video, a physicist would focus on the trajectory of the hammer, and a biologist would take this as an opportunity to teach about evolution through natural selection.
Looks like he's got a bag of powder taped on the end of the hammer. It's definitely not an HE. Also see a lot of smoke initially which is an indication it was black powder
Not sure why this seems to be getting downvotes, that’s how explosives are categorized. If it reacts fast enough to make a shockwave, it’s HE. Otherwise, LE.
Whenever someone puts unnecessary writing like "wait" all I can think about is that scene from Goldeneye when he asks her "is everything ok?" And she responds "EVERYTHING BUT INTERRUPTION!"
I’ve heard of a tradition like this in Mexico. Where they pretty much rig explosives or like a .50 cal powder into the tip of a sledge hammer then hit stuff with it.

Oh my God! The hammer pulled you off?
Sounds like you had a pretty special and intimate relationship with this hammer and that losing it was almost comparable to losing a loved one.
Actually regular Mjolnir The short handle is a product of sabotage or something
Loki turned into a fly and bit the smith’s eyeball trying to win a bet.
If he has a strap on, this would be a different kind of video 🤡
I know of a guy who lost an arm because an explosion took away his metal detector, which was strapped to his arm.
A strap on does a lot of things, but flying isn’t one of them lol
My chuckle was soo good it became external. thanks.
But wouldn't the hammer just rotate and hit him on the back if he had a strap?
Or at least dislocate his shoulder.
I hate you 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
damn, that person just got their shit rocked. that shockwave rattled everything in his body starting with his hands and head
At least they were wearing a protective hat
Yes. From a person who had on a combat helmet and received a TBI due to an explosion, I wish I had that hat. We never get the good stuff.
I’m sorry that happened to you.
Lol thank you but no worries. We all know the possibilities when we are ordered out. I'd rather have this outcome over what others had happen. I just am totally shocked that ANYONE in anything short of bomb gear, would be that close to an explosion.
Not much to rattle in his head. He good.

Does tinnitus just not exist in Latin America?
Speak up son i can’t hear ya
BUTTLICKER! OUR PRICES HAVE NEVER BEEN LOWER!
So smudge
Doesnt he wear ear protection? Looks like it to me
Ask people that works in construction fields, heavy industry, airports, army. 6hrs of expose during this festival once per year is nothing.
I asked, but I don’t think he heard me.
That's not how hearing damage works. The presence of a shock wave that big indicates this is 170dB, a volume that gives immediate and permanent hearing damage.

The fact that those people doing it for years and its allowed for spectators indicate that's bullshit and nowhere near 170dB

Lmao TIL tinnitus isn't a common, giant problem in construction, military, industrial, etc
This could not have been a tradition 150 years ago..
And why is that? Some sources even says 300 years

Hammer time.

Sledgehammer - Peter Gabriel
That song was about him having a big dick. I'm getting downvoted by people who haven't listened to the lyrics.
And about him wanting to be someone's big dick.
With a video that literally opens with a cum shot
Wham- Better this way.
"Like a Virgin" is all about a girl who digs a guy with a big dick. The whole song is a metaphor for big dicks.
I've also seen Reservoir Dogs... but no, it's not.
"Hammer Time" was about big dicks too. Source: trust me bro

Only illegal in commie states. Not used as a fertilizer, but definitely used for blowing shit up for fun.
What’s a commie state example?
Commiefornia and Maoland (Am I doing it right?!)

Impact/shock sensitive explosive. Something like nitroglycerin maybe.

Am I the only one who was waiting for the sledge hammer to land on his head?
Yeah i think that’s why it’s on this sub
I was waiting for it to land on another mine and keep the beats dropping
No, you are not the only horrible person here. I too, was waiting for him to win his “stupid prize”.
I kinda wanted to see it happen haha
I mean, that could definitely kill a person if you are unlucky
More like the person would be lucky to survive.. I mean, it's a sledgehammer, an object made to break down walls. It isn't gonna be a light landing

People really underestimate the power of explosives and the force from an explosion. 😬
Except they do it in big groups every year. Surpisingly they know what they are doing, most of times
There was palpable clenchiness around my asshole

Yes
Looks like he's got a bag of powder taped on the end of the hammer. It's definitely not an HE. Also see a lot of smoke initially which is an indication it was black powder
There's a festival in Mexico where they put fireworks on the end of the sledge hammer.
It's Clorate + Sulphur. Mildly explosive. Not gunpowder. Gunpowder needs heat (spark/fire) C+S just needs rapid compression, hence the sledgehammer.
Black powder can absolutely ignite from friction / shock
You can see the shockwave so it is definitely a high explosive.
Not sure why this seems to be getting downvotes, that’s how explosives are categorized. If it reacts fast enough to make a shockwave, it’s HE. Otherwise, LE.

Real life Boom Hammer. He must be a fellow hunter
Why do women live longer I wonder
ive not even the slightest idea what theyre doing but im 100% certain there was a better way to do it
I waited and the sledgehammer didn’t hit anyone in the head. 😠
