This is basicalls the greatest TV show of all time. thank you for all the experiments, even though im 20 now, i still watch the old episodes with my parents, and we always got paper, string and a scissors with us! 👍❤
Last time my dad came home drunk, my mom was waiting in the kitchen, and saucers were flying everywhere. Another cool Curiosity Show contraption. Flying saucer looked like it really took off!
We used canned drink/beer pull tabs. You could find them all over the sides of the roads in the 60s. Snap them in half and use the bent tail to launch the ring.
Shuriken launcher plans right here kids! Wantsta maim yer friends, well just beef it up with stainless steel or brass and heavy bungee cords and you too could put an eye out!
I'm sure if we limited our children's use of games consoles and smart phones, which do have their place when solving problems or improving logical thinking etc, and encouraged them to try the ideas presented on The Curiosity Show and helped them improve on the design (tools can be very dangerous in the hands of excited children) we would enrich the upbringing of these children. I am also sure that many of them would go on to help society on both a local and global scale by adapting their knowledge and striving to improve on the fundamentals learned on the show.
What the heck is a wooden pig? Anyway that’s what it sounds like to my English ears 🤪 When I worked in an architectural practice, 50+ years ago, I had my own version of this - I taped an elastic band to a 12” scale rule and could stretch it back, position a Gillette type razor blade onto the band and fire. It could stick into a plastered wall at the end of the drawing office 🤪

Good on you - never be without them - Rob
Agreed!

I wonder how many school playgrounds were inundated by these UFOs back in the day... 😁
Wonder what kinda of terroristic threat a kid would be labeled for making one of these a school today?
We use to take a rubber band loop it over ur thumb and index finger to make a slingshot. If u fold paper really tight and use it as ammo very painful.
@@God.is.Good365 we used to make those paper ammo haha and shoot to everyone in the class
@@God.is.Good365 yup, I'm 26 and we did this in middle school, we called them wasps or hornets 😂
@@God.is.Good365 paper clips as ammo hurt like hell
I come in peace. Now take me to your Curiousity Show host, the handsome one with the Imnaculate Goatee.
I was born in the year 2000, and still admire these💗✨️ keep going!
In the year two thousaaand...

🎵Hit me with a Samboy chip🎵
Hit me slowly...
We had similar TV programs in Sweden in the 70s. The most famous was Hajk. 😀
The box of Samboy salt and vinegar chips really takes me back

i remember doing that.
My Mum: "You'll have someone's eye out with that!" : D
@@COL321
it's all fun and games until someone loses an eye.
then it's a SPORT! 😆
I’d forgotten all about those… ! we all did them, they flew so well
People used to drop those into the can and then drink it. Dumbassery at its finest.
Those are some razor sharp scissors.
What a fun toy to build.
That‘s for being a child like a boss 💪👍 … so cool!
I remember this one. Many pegs have fallen victim to my UFOs...
Oh shoot! I just time travelled! Mine was always confiscated!
Try it on your UFO believer friends.
P.S. Do not use razor blades. It's bad OK?
SAMBOY CHIPS!
Pretty cool.
POV: u found this on recommended at 3am

So if none of da Vincis machines flew, then technically he didn't design ANY flying machines....LOL
Time to make a UAP video 😈
Dang I wish I would’ve known about this when I was I school! I coulda raised some minor hell with one.
Cool
TIL: clothespins are called pegs in Australia.
And I'd never heard them called clothespins! You live and learn : )
