    Just a heads up, those springs have crossed coils and have potential to slip past eachother kind of like when you snap your fingers. I worked for a spring manufacturing company for 6 years making high tensile springs with 1/2"+ diameter wire, the loads when comprsessed are in the thousands of pounds of pressure. Pro tip: be very careful with where they end up. 🙂

    When smashing aerosol cans you need to have like a blow torch setup close by so it will auto ignite the butane used to pressurise them! Even more fun for the slowies.
    Edit: seeing as more people keep commenting...
    And I've commented this already
    I would expect if the guys did it they would take all precautions to make sure they didn't burn more of Australia away!
    Also I don't go around burning stuff so those precautions aren't something I've ever thought about.

    From a strictly mechanical point of view, I really liked the springs. You could see that as the springs were compressing it didn't slow the hammer one bit, but as soon as the coils stacked solid, there was a massive hesitation in the hammer for an instant.

      Yeah, the barrel was a high point of the video. Sure, water is incompressible, which could lead you to think that it'd stop the hammer... but the sides of the barrel give out way before it gets to a fight of water vs hammer. So it's like stomping on a full and unopened soda can, scaled up, ohhh, about 500×.

    The springs were very interesting. U can clearly see they work exactly as intended as they compress perfectly until fully compressed. If they had stopped the hammer’s momentum at that point, then the springs would have pushed the hammer back at maximum force. However, the springs did not stop the hammer. Thus, the springs permanently deformed and did not push the hammer back.
