8:11 This is why I love this channel - Colin is always teaching himself new things to finish a crazy project, and is putting on show for his audience. Everything is new and fresh on this channel.
I've been watching for years and I've noticed that Colin doesn't remain stagnant at all. He learns new camera tricks, editing skills and teaches himself how to use all sorts of new gizmos to bring us something awesome to watch!
I'd like to underline the "new" part of this, mechanical engineering naturally overlaps with electrical engineering in plenty of ways, I mean at 2:50 he's got beefy power cables flipping electrical solenoids. But a full microcontroller/Arduino driving a staged relay board is a whole other kettle of fish, he's completely crossed disciplines to get it done, he got into NERD CODE

Albert Einstein once said: "I don't know how World War 3 will be fought, but World War 4 will be fought using Colin Furze's semi-automatic potato launchers".
In case no one has let you know, they actually did put flamethrowers on tanks. This was done by most major powers in WWII, and saw use on both European fronts as well as in the Pacific. They were really good for clearing out areas with thick vegetation or large concentrations of enemy infantry. They were also really good at deterring enemy soldiers from trying to get on the tank to disable it with explosives. Flamethrowers weren't standard issue for tanks, but they were common enough to be well documented.

hello my friend. good project
Cheers man, radial engine looking sweet
This guy is a modern day mad professor . He brings the 10 year old little boy in me back to life.
If I want someone for the zombie apocalypse it’s gonna be him and he should make a series on like contraptions for the apocalypse
i fail to see how that'd be any different from everything he has already done. i mean... tuktuk with machine guns... jet powered-everything (including butt)... hell, he once made stairs harder to use. on purpose.
@@Skedge Half of his things aren't useful anyway. If it's cool, it's perfect for this channel.
You should check out his secret bunker build series
If anyone will survive it will be him and his skills
Add Joerg Sprave to the mix and you'll be safe for a while
"you don't find flamethrowers on tanks"
Churchill Crocodile:
Am I a joke to you?
xD
a fair bit of german tanks: *Are we a joke to you?*
indeed
Check out the XM42. I have one. And they are very impressive.
*ECHO*
Someone: *"Colin, what's cal. you are using? 50bmg? 416 barret?"*
Colin: *"PotatoShot round"*
Full metal jacket potato
I am amused that he doesn't even consider pre-making the rounds - won't be surprised if next video involves him raiding the local grocer / farmer's field and just dumping random veg into the hopper.
@@anyGould Scrap Mechanic: Survival xD

Therapist: Semi automatic potato cannons mounted on a screw tank aren't real, they can't hurt you.

@@daanoffline5716 not particularly no. Haven't played it pretty much since launch. Thought it was pretty disappointing tbf
colin's son at 18: What kind of vehicle does your dad drive?
His friend: my dad drives a lambo. Beat that.
His Son: My dad flys an x-wing from star wars.
Son: *points up* "That"
Rather Tuk Tuk
J Laski yes 🛺🔥
Check out the concept any UA-cam channel "Driveonwood.com"
People are getting a mile for less than a penny
Nighthawkinlight did some projects with woodgas too
His friend: wat
Colin's Son: also a screw tank with a potato gun and BMW hot tub
His friend: *i give up*
As soon as I heard the music starting at around 1:00, all I thought was, "Wait a minute I know this song-"
Colin: "You dont find flamethrowers on tanks"
Me: "Flammpanzer I, II, III were German FLAMETHROWER TANKS. The Churchill, Sherman, and Matilda all could be equipped with flame units as well."
Alright smarty pants tell me every stand in jojos bizzare adventure you got 30 seconds
Five models. Out of the thousands that have been designed. Not a high percentage, hmm?
@@cjprojects7975 five models from World War 2. Plus there isnt a big need for them in modern conflicts as you aren't clearing bunkers with them. Why use fire when you can drop a bomb designed to penetrate the bunker before exploding.
@@cjprojects7975 And trust me there are more. I only listed a few. I could list them all from ww2 to the cold war era
There were also several used in Vietnam...
"You don't find flame throwers in tanks."
Even if that were true, it's not a valid reason to not put one on. In fact, it would seem to be a reason to do it.
As soon as he said it I hurled myself towards the comments to see if someone had already actually-ied him. I knew it! XD And I couldn't agree more!
There’s the Churchill Crocodile. That was a flame throwing tank in WW2
Tanks don't have flamethrowers??????
Company of Heroes 2 would like to have a word with you...........
There are actually several tanks from several countries that had flamethrower attachments... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_tank
(Battlefield V tank flashbacks)
My mother just told me she thinks a social-distancing upgrade for the safety tie would be a splendid idea. Where the tie moves up in a 90° angle and extends to 1,5m to keep people at distance.
to date your Mom is correct as Sweden is doing better than any country now Sept 20 Also have heard that the virus itself has not been peer reviewed? Articles and journals have but not the virus itself? That is a bit unusual however science is alarmed I recently read due vaccine companies not being open about their safety I certainly hope at least they will do one because that should save us all a lot of time and worry from unbiased science you know?
But he already made the spinning knife belt

Your kids are like mom, where is Dad we haven't seen him in days?
Mom: darling he is in the bunker
Imagine Colin's' son inviting his dad to school for Career Day.
I think you meant " bringing him to school daily."
@@mathieulazari2074 I think he’s a Yank
Imagine the presentation the kid will make at the science fair
"Could make anything he wants as a weapon"
*Shoots potatoes at terminal velocity*
If that is not British, I don't know what is.
Irish ?
@@pommedeter7407 Is he?
Not really British more like Irish and that’s coming from a Brit
Should be a beer canon on shooting jets at 100mph
well of course its british every other gun is banned
"You don't find flamethrowers on tanks."
The Churchhill Crocodile (and many others) would like a word with you...
bruhh chill
flammpanzer III: allow me to introduce myself
Sherman
Sholom Kochman what about the Sherman?
I'll get my coat
11.07 That excitement and happiness when your stuff does a great job.
America: our tanks are the best and have the most advanced weapon systems
Colin: did someone say something?
In Mother Russia we don't eat potatoes we shoot potatoes...............ok we eat them too but still lots of shooting.
Leopard 2a7 is better than than the Abrams. No tank can penetrate its turret armor.
@@mr.astronuts3825 challenger 2 is best tank

When the apocalypse hits, I want this guy on my team!
Do ya live in the UK.
Who doesn't, he can literally build anything!
He could make an underwater bunker if he wanted to
Him and Joerg Sprave
Potato cannon only with some upgrades is amazing for survival, amount of flammable gas needed is miniscule
"You don't find flamethrowers on tanks"
The Churchill Crocodile begs to differ.
I think he means it's not anti armor
@@fluG4M3 Neither is a potato cannon, unless you are using mattresses for armor apparently
You just need to paint the end of the potato black
You have one the best montages on youtube! Love your videos man!
Guys a genuine inspiration!!!
Without you Colin I wouldn’t have made half of my projects.
ALSO wouldn’t have a man cave/ shed at home.
Big love
Colin's really going full mad scientist, huh?

If I need a good laugh...I just watch a Colin video. Always works.
This is the most underrated channel in youtube history
Wdym he has 10 million subs I dont think he's underrated
He has 10,000,000 people watching his content
he deserves more
10 million subs says otherwise lol
Waiting for the headline “UK UA-cam arrested for building artillery in garden shed”
At what point does the potato nugget (as Collin calls it) become a firearm
@@DarthAxolotl i think its 17 joules or something
@@DarthAxolotl In the US under the NFA (National Firearms Act of 1934) this could be classified as a "DD" (Destructive Device) which means it reqiers a $200 tax stamp from the ATF, fingerprints and photo.
corgidog yeah. Not sure of exact number but I know in most European countries it is more about “pressure directing” and “energy of projectile”
Darth Axolotl was joking more about the UK gun laws. I love Colin’s “coked out” energy and creativity and wish him the best.
I love how genuinely excited you are about the success of this. Clearly Learning something completely new successfully adds such pride to build.
If one day a wheeled recon tank is the build. A revolver breach T-shirt cannon should be the gun. From joke shirts to the tshirt version of a Paisley or simply red shirts with bang stenciled on it would be pure fun.
