Insider info: it took about 6 hours to get the cannons to operate correctly and the How Ridiculous crew was the most patient and kind group of guys I’ve ever worked with. They pitched in to fix, adapt and make the cannons work under non-ideal conditions! Thanks guys!

Herron's digital countdowns were hysterical. Also, even when you didn't get a clean collision the slowies were epic. And again, Scott was right there working on the technical problems.

It's a great cause! Thank you HR! My aunt and my grandma both survived breast cancer; treatment's come a long way. And folks, please remember that both women and men can get breast cancer. The potential area does extend up to the armpits. So go get yourself that regular check according to your doctor and if you find a lump that feels like a dry kernel of corn, go back to the doctor!

In the intricate milieu of remote-controlled air cannons, an unforeseen clash of electromagnetic frequencies transpired. Remote A, orchestrating a meticulously calibrated confetti cascade, found itself entangled in a discordant ballet with Remote B, which executed a precision protocol for an expansive streamer deployment. This unexpected confluence unfolded in a living space repurposed as an impromptu laboratory, where the meticulously synchronized frequencies of both remote controllers unexpectedly intersected. It metamorphosed into a symphony of infrared signals, each vying for dominion within the confined airspace of inflatable magnificence. Against the backdrop of electromagnetic interference, one could envisage a theoretical arbiter attempting to adjudicate the standoff. The collision of communication protocols and synchronized pneumatic discharges posed a unique technical quandary, rendering the domestic environment an unwitting crucible for remote control connoisseurs. Upon contemplation of this unforeseen nexus of air cannon technology and remote control stratagem, the realization dawned that these ostensibly recreational devices, designed for revelry, had become embroiled in a technical imbroglio of their own. The domestic space unwittingly transmogrified into a crucible of experimentation, where outcomes were contingent upon the precision of encoded signals. In the aftermath, the domestic abode stood as a testament to a convergence not merely of remote controllers but of the intricacies inherent in infrared communication. It served as a reminder that even in the realm of inflatable diversion, the nuanced aspects of signal interference can ascend to prominence. Thus, a salutation to the inadvertent technical spectacle: an encounter of frequencies that transmuted a domestic milieu into an arena of remote-controlled precision and inflatable marvels. May the electromagnetic ether find concord, and the synchronized discharges regain equilibrium.
13:35 I could feel the excitement from here, that WAS the money shot! Something about watching two watermelons collide in slow motion is just awesome.

The slow mo guys also have careers outside of KZread so a years worth of filming in a short span. That paired with the how ridiculous crew being based in Australia makes for scheduling conflicts.
Now you know why Myth Busters used those ms delay switches. Getting two things moving that fast to fire at the same time requires millisecond trimming triggers.

Whenever you guys are doing a Smooth Bore Canon situation you need to use a rag or some kind of wadding as a sabot. It's the only way to get any kind of consistent results when you're using inconsistent ammo. Using the basketballs helped
Even when things don't go as planned, HR's viddies are still entertaining. 200 MPH watermelons aren't really why fans are watching. We're watching because of Brett, Derek and Scott, plus the awesome Wallaces! ❤

Not gonna lie the problem solving and close calls made for a very engaging video and that money shot much more worth it! Fun to see you guys out here on the top side of the earth 🤠
At around 9:36 that fast spinning yellow lego slightly right and top centre just jarred me out for some reason. You have all this activity going on, and that lego is like "weeeeeeee".
I suggest that from now on, for every watermelon or other fruit you demolish making epic videos that How Ridiculous donates 10 or 100 times the amount to a food bank. Thanks for making these amazing videos to entertain us all! Editor Jack is a genius!

after rigorous scientific examination we have determined that these plastic pieces were military projectiles, they bear the marks of being fired at high velocities. At first we thought they were toys, but then the lab assistant stepped on one and we realized how deadly they could be.

You guys are epic. Glad that you had so much fun in Montana. Also noticed that the video is 15 mins and 44 sec. I presume that was intentional as a shout out to the 44 club. Well played.
You need to cover a Lego Ball with Linex and see if it can survive any test you throw at it. That would be ridiculous.
2 straightedges [1:TDC (top dead center) & 1: 90° Away from camera] hose clamped to each tube (level & w/2' overlap on each tube) will ensure centered shots each time. I.E. 10' separation from mouth = 14' straightedges (angle iron recommended). {2' is overkill, but allows straps to be 18" apart for better alignment}. Timing will be easier if all other variables are locked down.
Love from Tennessee
Having specialised in large air cannon for over 20 years, I feel your pain timing wise! I moved away from butterfly valves (although you can make them work with fast stepper motors) I eventually settled on a large pressure differential valve of my own design which allowed for near perfect timing.
I cannot overstate my excitement at the distinct possibility of a double coney joney

Great video guys can’t wait for the next everything you put your energy into comes out amazing
The first shot with the watermelons at 10:25, the reason both mellons survived initially is because there was an air cushion trapped between the two mellons and the barrel that gently bounced the incoming mellon.

i'm pretty sure there's a ride somewhere that is a drop tower without the brakes, and they use this exact same principle (the very tight air seal as a cushion) instead of the brakes and it works every time
00:26 🎯 Setting up precise firing of items requires intricate machinery and careful adjustments. 01:19 🕹 Achieving precise timing in dual cannon firing involves learning and tweaking mechanisms for synchronous action. 02:38 🎀 Using pink in the experiment is a tribute to a friend's victorious battle against breast cancer, highlighting awareness and celebration. 03:30 🏎 Technical adjustments are made to synchronize the firing sequence with extreme precision. 06:25 🕒 Achieving a 15 millisecond delay in firing the cannons is proving challenging but crucial for the desired collision. 08:11 🧱 Using Lego bowling balls in the experiment poses anticipation for their outcome. 10:24 🍉 Attempting collisions with watermelons showcases the difficulty in achieving the desired synchronized impact. 11:30 🏀 Using basketballs to potentially aid in aligning the melons for collision highlights experimental creativity. 14:51 🎀 Incorporating pink powder celebrates Breast Cancer Awareness Month and a friend's two-year cancer-free milestone.
