The best commercially available crossbows have about 200 Joule shot energy and 3 N s momentum. That is quite impressive and actually can be used for hunting big game at shot distances up to 70 meters.
But now, a home made "post apocalyptic" airbow wipes all of those expensive products away. Made from plumbing parts and wood from the scrap heap, this arrow powered weapon fires a heavy, thick home made arrow at 511 Joule (377 ft-lb) of energy, with about four times the momentum of a 200 Joule crossbow.
It is accurate enough to achieve a perfect "Robin Hood" shot from 14 meters distance, and can be charged by a manual pump, a scuba/paintball bottle or a suitable compressor.
The power is just amazing. Even a triple layer "Stronghold" archery mat that can easily stop the most powerful compound crossbow arrows failed to catch the heavy aluminum arrow fired from this contraption... but clearly the most impressive test is the "double Zombie" head shot. Two coconuts, molded into two blocks of ballistic gelatin, were penetrated all the way with major force.
This needs to be converted into a commercially manufactured airgun with a quick reload, large air container and cool industrial design! Specifically since German law defines this as a "toy" and it can be bought/made without any kind of license.
A "The Slingshot Channel" production!
*"Archery mat? what archery mat?"*
*"Zombie heads? what zombie heads? "*
- _The Arrow_, probably.
Rubber and wood, man. Guess I never gave Kids Next Door enough credit.
Hey Joerg, we have made a super powerful t-shirt cannon before and we used the release valve from a abandoned washer/dryer. One of those big washers. It shoots a t-shirt across at least one football field! With a half full plastic bottle, will shoot very×100 far. The valve is pressure release so it opens super fast. Might wanna check it out. Good luck!
That Robin Hood's shot was amazing...True accuracy..
And that is a toy in Germeny
"Germany" get autocorrect.
+Nahuel Ulloa ya but that is yet crazy
German weapon technology has advanced so much that these things have became mere toys for them.
Yeah the funny thing is in America, with our super liberal gun laws compared to the rest of the world, most states have an energy requirement on firearms to be considered a toy. I believe it's around 5J/shot but I'm not sure. So while you wouldn't get arrested on your private property for this "toy", you could potentially face some serious charges in many areas if caught using inappropriately.
In Germany you can also carry fixed blades up to 12cm of blade length and full length machetes but folders that can be opened with one hand are illegal to carry.
3,500 PSI, did I hear that right? Wow...
you should collaborate with The Slow Mo Guys.
those guys are a joke compare to joerg. their videos are just slow motioning everything.... boring as hell
+Huang Huang no its not
Yes, the Slow Mo Guys do exactly what their channel name says they do, how dare they!
I never said they slow mo guys sould not do what they intend to do, but what they intend to do is just boring TO ME. I think joergs slow mo cam is sufficient enough to demo his theory and idea, joerg is in my opinion smarter and more respectable than some guy slowmoing everything on youtube with fancy gagets. Sorry if i offended you if you are ther fan.
slomoguys, colin furze, and joreg sprave = dangerous shit in slowmo
Absolutely amazing. Next step - full auto? ;)
Also - would it be viable to have interchangeable pressure cylinders so you could reload in about 20 seconds rather than minutes?
Not really doable, you would need to have valves in each cylinders, it's easier to have a bigger main cylinder to reload from
Full auto is far to complicated and this is pretty complicated enough (too built)
the next great war will be started with air compressors...
wtf robin hood shoot!!! impressive
Well, kinda, yes. But look at the diameter of those shafts, as well as the relatively short distance he is shooting it.
Not saying, it's not impressive; it's just a tiny bit less impressive when you look at the situation.
"HA-HA-HA... Let me show you it's features" :D
Classic :) I love your videos, keep up the good work! :)
Is it possible to integrate the pressured air into the arrows instead of the weapon? I am thinking of recreating history when guns were not loaded each time but the gunpowder got integrated into the bullets instead.
Good idea, like every arrow is powered by a little CO2 cartridge.
The more you shoot, the more global warming! :)
Gyro-air arrows? Sounds neat
There are some air guns which operate using similar principles although they use a cartridge which separates from the projectile to be refilled. Basically like a conventional bullet or cartridge only filled with compressed air.
I think the problems would be keeping the arrow strong enough to contain the high pressure, not prone to being set off accidentally and still allow good arrow like characteristics. Especially without delving into areas which are restricted by law, as the projectile sliding over the barrel is what makes this be classed as a toy.
hmmm.. make the arrow itself a chamber of air, and have the same setup, but in order to properly work, the arrow would have to go in the barrel. so he couldn't make it. and then have a trigger somehow release what in the arrow, sounds completely feasible. the only problem is the arrow would weigh much more
If I had an idea for a DIY slingshot, and I drew up some plans for the concept, would I be able to send it to you if you might be interested in making it?
"let Me show you its features mu ha ha ha."
Joerg, here is another idea for you to bypass German gun laws: Another air pressure gun, having a pipe inside a pipe like this one you made, but the moving pipe would not be an arrow, but it would work like a piston to push a ball bearing, guided by 3 or 4 rails. This piston would have to be stopped from continuing traveling forward, with some kind of rubber. You could make more efficient perhaps by adding yet another pipe outside a pipe, forming 3 pipes one inside the other, which would allow for movement to begin, not just half of the way but 1/3 of the way. Since the piston would not fly, I suppose it would not need to go outside, but rather inside, having pipe inside pipe, inside pipe, in reducing diameters. That would make the last pipe move faster rather than more slowly. At the tip of that piston gun, you could also attach a knife, to make it super stabby instead of projectile launching.
he makes me so happy.
Passing through 3 archery mats back to back is one awesome demonstration. A multi-barrel loaded up and you could hunt a T-Rex.
Fallout haters: you can't build any weapon from scracht.
Joerg: hold my slingshot
😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks Joerge. You make Sundays worth living.

100 strokes for that 3.5k psi shot...
truly this is a labour of love
It's definitely a dangerous weapon...
No, it's a toy.
it could kill like 4 persons standing in a row so HELL YES IT IS
so is a knife
+Fredrick Goodwill how about you check the German news today or china's incident...
Cameron Brown pls what
I've been a big fan of yours for a long time and I continue to enjoy your videos each time you come out with a new one! I really liked your videos lately as I do enjoy the mechanical aspect of valves and how you've integrated rubber into your creation! Also, the bonus shot of your fixed blade razor knife was a big plus for me, great idea to make a handle for the razor blade! Keep up the good work Joerg! I will always be a fan!
1 Bar is = 14.503 PSI. so 500 Bar = 7251.886 PSI.
You are right of course, I stand corrected.
Work a lot with hydraulics and pneumatic system, and traveling all over the world for work. End up doing a lot of converting from metric to standard, and vice versa.
Joerg, you might like the Havlaon pocket/folding hunting knifes. They use replaceable scalpel blades. Or you can get ones that have a hollow ground full blade at one end and the scalpel blade at the other. They also have multitools with the same design. And you can get the blades in different sizes and shapes.
That's so powerful! Can you give a demonstration of distance? Say you needed to hunt a deer for food in a SHFT situation? Would be interesting of the kill range? Great inventions you have and a really good interesting channel, well done sir. I think it will blast a bunny to death lol
In Germany, hunting is only legal with firearms, not with anything that uses an arrow. Also I do not think Jörg would kill an animal for demonstration.
tornoutlaw
Not to kill a real animal, just use a target. I know you cannot hunt with a bow in most places of Europe only in America where it is allowed is some states. That's why I said in a SHTF situation if there was not law. It will be nice to see the range of that air arrow I think.
if you could hit it i am pretty sure it would kill it xd
Teo Sfikas
Yes but at what range could it be affective? 30 meters away or further?
+eightgeorge 40 - 50 i estimate
When I saw you cut the gelatin with the razor, I was shocked! That blade is SERIOUSLY sharp!
Don't bother asking FX to make it.. Get some backers, a small cottage engineering / fabrication company to sponsor / build it.
I'm positive you could do this yourself, with a small group of people. Crowdfunding would make this a viable and cost effective reality whilst you retaining ownership of the project. You don't want FX to bury the device in favour of their own branded products.
I am just a UA-camr now and don't want to run a business again.
Anon mouse prone
Love the build Joerg, you should build an arrow for this that works like a conventional open on impact broadhead used for hunting but use instead fillet knife blades to get a huge cutting area and see if you can simulate either cutting a zombie completely in half or beheading it...
Joerg, why are your government advising to stock up on food and water? Do they know something we dont?
What's with the "we" you got a raccoon in your pocket? ;) The shit is gonna hit the fan some day soon, they know it, I know it, our government knows it but won't tell you, so what's wrong with you, when are you gonna figure it out?
I was asking myself the same question when I heard it on the radio when I was driving through germany.. Especially the "you have absolutely nothing to worry about, but y'know.. just in case" part.
MaxTheKanuck thats the reason i especially like jörg! he shows the people how to legally arm themselfs!
Fredrick Goodwill new game mode in cod!
Yes Paul there is something specific to Germany, your people are so stupid, they don't know what's coming, they've told you and told you it's coming, but you're stupid, so they'll tell you again, "get ready" so when it does happen (the shit hitting the fan), you won't have any reason to whine about.., I didn't know this was gonna happen!, and how come they didn't warn me!?
Most people: Afraid Zombie will eat them.
Joerg: _eats zombies_
5:44
Yep, coconut zombies !
notice meeeee
no...
Die Power von dem Teil ist echt erschreckend. Und alles im baumarkt zu bekommen ^^
.
first
i hate you
.
Hammer! nach der Hälfte dachte, Du mußt ne Kleinserie davon auflegen :) aber FX ist sicher auch eine gute Idee :D :D
That gelatin at the end sounded so satisfying.
Jorg you never fail to impress. Nice anti-aircraft gun.
The power and accuracy of the arrow shooter made me speechless!
Another great source for high pressure valves is a power washer wand. They aren't too expensive and can be rated for however high you need them, even over 4000 psi. I built my own arrow gun using a 3200 psi power washer wand as the valve/ trigger mechanism. Power comes from a 20 oz. CO2 paintball tank. It shoots a 20-inch crossbow bolt. The whole unit is mounted inside a AR-15 style stock for a Ruger 1022. Still a work-in-progress but it works great!
Joerg, you should check out piston quick exhaust valves. I have made a few of them for different air powered "toys". Instantaneous air release and not terribly difficult to make. there is no diaphram so they handle high pressures easier. plus you can use a very small rubber powered ball valve still to trigger the qev.
377 foot pounds. I'll say it again. Three hundred and seventy seven foot pounds! That is ridiculous and amazing. You da man joerg.
Respekt. Immer wieder mehr als beeindruckend was Du fabrizierst.
Great to see a pressure rated version! :)
i'd love to see if the arrows can handle the 300bar shots.. that should be very interesting!
also - are you going to build a gatling-style version of this childrens toy?
this guy is the king of building cool toys and he don't spare on how much power it should have which is all important
That "toy" is awesome! You could put a broad head on that bolt and hunt grizzlies with it. I still cant believe that it went through all three of the back stops. Keep up the good work!
the most incredible shave I've had was with the Dovo (made in Germany) , razor I bought in the 80's . nothing has come close since . happy to say I never cut myself with it.
that air gun is impressive Jorg . I daresay, in a survival situation , and what with all the zombie killers taking all the gun ammunition .. that you could kill a deer or an elk with broadheads on your bolts , humanely .
One extra valve and you can make a multi shot device - hold the bulk of the air behind the first valve, and release it into the second chamber a shot at a time - the volume of the second chamber allows you to decide the power of the shot
A burglar comes to Jorge home and he laughs and says let me show you some features
Wow, that's incredible. Straight through an archery mat. You should do a max-zombie skewer test: set up a row of 30 or 40 zombies (coconut inside gelatin) and see how many it penetrates before the arrow stops.
Alternatively, 30 or 40 bottles of water, see how many it penetrates.
Definitely the closest thing to a commercial ready product I've seen him make. Not to say all the other stuff isn't extremely entertaining, you just couldn't turn most of them into sporting products. Excluding the rambone and a few others well.
dear joerg, I think this time you just surpassed yourself. This thing is amazing... Keep up the good work!
Man that gun kicks ass Joerg I like it 100% bad ass like you always do right on brother>>
Joerg I think that you definitely outdid yourself this time round - that gun is brutal!
That is so badass! You should put these together in a DIY build it kit. I would totally buy like 10 of those!
Ich freu mich für dich, dass du nicht mehr im Büro arbeiten musst. Ich wünschte, ich könnte das auch aufgeben und nur noch UA-cam-Videos machen :-)
Awesome!!! And that mod you did to the cheap razor is sweet too. It's like what is called a one hand pilbuster.
Realy powerful. Amazing work
wow you went from a guy playing with slingshots to someone inventing serious, unique weapons... awesome :D
You are crazy, Joerg! And I love it! :D
I was just gonna say, somebody buy this guy a production license at a machining factory. But an air rifle company is already tooled up for it.
Honestly looks like something out of Fallout 3/4. Well done.
This guy seems so cute and kind i just wanna give him a hug
pretty cool to watch the progression of this concept. You gradually work your way up from, "eh,that's pretty neat" all the way to "HOLY BALLZ! I think I just shit myself."
D A M N ! That should do it. I want one! No, I want to live bout a mile from you! Love ya Joerg! You ARE the king of homemade self defense!
Just another reason I love ya Jörg!
I actually shave with a straight razor only. its a beautiful art.
That air gun is incredible you really are the man.
Awesome! Thank you very much for your incredible content. Without you, UA-cam wouldn't be the same.
I am positive that this is the best weapon on this channel
So is this all considered "Rubberpunk," "Pressurepunk," or "Spravepunk?" :)
Absolutely amazing work with all of these man. I take a lot of inspiration from your vids as a game designer!
This is getting really serious. I like it!
Fun fact... such weapons were used by the austrian army back in the XIX century. Nice tech for the time.
Shaving with a straight razor is an experience in its own. I'ts like a relaxing ritual. I actually enjoy shaving so long as I am using my straight razor.
That gun is nuts.
Next version: Double barrel for a "warning shot". You could also slide a bigger steel pipe over the air container for protection in case it bursts.
Joerg, the safe way to pressure test is by using fluids not gasses.. I guess you could fill it with water, and then pressurize it with a gas.. That way you would not have as much energy stored if it breaks..
Damn Joerg, keep this up and they'll be redefining what constitutes a weapon and you'll no longer be able to use these as "toys".
My birthday is soon, I love your videos Please keep uploading!
hammer teil, jörg ! damit kannst du elefanten jagen... zombie elefanten natürlich.
You make a lot of cool stuff, but this I think is better than your giant cannon. Great job.
Very cool. I had a thought about powering the pump. Ive seen people who have used various different systems to power them but they all suffer from the issue that they go too fast. How about an electric linear actuator powerwd by a microcontroller. It could be programmed to pump at a reasonable rate and to stop at each end for a moment. This would solve the overheating issues and should work perfectly.
You sure do come up with a lot of alternative to firearm weapons!!
Welcome to compressed air weapons realm! Perhaps it is time to evolve from rubber.
Funny how much Joerg preps for a zombie apocalypse but if it ever broke out iam sure everyone's first place to raid would be his house.
Brilliante, moderne und praktische Armbrust :)!
The power of that thing is impressive to say the least! Wow
+JoergSprave I just watched your 400 joule video and thought " that really looks like it might hurt his chest" and was just about to comment saying you should build a stock for it but now you've beat me to it. Thanks for the amazing videos!
that thing is unbelievable, good job joerg
Have you ever tried to build a light gas gun? I don't know if you know it already, but the difference is you fill it with helium or hydrogen. These are lighter gasses and can expand quicker which means: same pressure => faster shooting.
Holy cow!!! This is awesome!! Well done, Sir!!!
You are totally bonkers Joerg! That thing is wicked scary! I love the design and performance... What about fitting an air reservoir to it? It would be awesome to have multiple shots, and easy to fill when you get your compressor in. Also, a solenoid triggering system would be sweet as well, but I know how you love your rubber lol... Take care
He did say that he'd like to see a reservoir if he can persuade the company he's flying to in October to manufacture a professional version of the weapon he's made...
he mentions a commercial design with a resavior at the end.
I would buy one.
Right, I know, but he said he wanted to persuade the company to do a reservoir, but I have think that he easily could do it himself. Filling though would be the only thing, as he doesn't have a air compressor yet...
Damn Joerg, that thing is immense!!! Bravo!
this might not be an original thought but we need an official "let you show you its features" tee shirt!
That looks absolutely deadly. Maybe you could start doing some tests on complex zombie simulating targets, like pig parts from a butcher? Would give a good estimate about the destructive potential of your inventions. It`s peculiar that it is legally a "toy" but actually as dangerous as a firearm when armed.
Excellent job Mr Jorg !
But please can you tell me the sizes of the fittngs & the redueser & the check valve so it will be easier to buy it from ebay.
Thank you .
Ich brech zsammen 🍺😂 Rumst ganz schön das Teil! Respekt. Ich kauf jetzt auch mal Kokosnüsse 😂Falls du einen Gewehrschaft von ner Howa brauchst, schwarz und aus Holz. Übrig wegen Wechsel auf nen Tacticalschaft, den überlass ich dir unentgeltlich und schick ihn dir gern zu. So kannst du die Highend-Stufe von irgend einer der nächsten Versionen deiner Airgunspielzeuge etwas aufhübschen 😉
My two favorite marksman tools combined in one 🙌
Awesome power.......would be nice to see just how far some of your creations can shoot...a nice long field and some targets :)
P.S My son was showing me one of his toys yesterday and said "let me show you it's features"....he love's your videos to....hope you make many thousand's more.
Hi Jürgen. Kannst du irgendwann mal einen Chronik Test machen mit dem Lungentrainer? Da kommen bestimmt auch gute Werte dabei raus.
I think a larger storage tank than that thin steal tube would make a huge improvement. This would decrease the pressure drop from filling the gas piston "barrel".
When he's out of breath you know you're in for a good time!
that would make an awesome commercial product
Wow that is an amazing sniper rifle! Congratulations on the Robin Hood shot too :) If I could request one improvement, why not change the tripod for an attachable slingshot? A weapon with a backup weapon!
