In any case it was an unintentional discharge.


I hate it when that happens!  :)

You ought to read the articles about it. That is discussed, however they may have elevated the barrel to load. In any case it was an unintentional discharge.

I seriously doubt we'll see the situation on the show given the time needed for the multitude of law suits they are going to get. It does fit Adam's saying, "failure is always an option".



Ah.  I hadn't seen it was an accidental discharge.  In that case, double lucky nobody was hurt.

Oh sure, now Kalifornia is going to ban cannons as "the terrorists weapon of choice"!

And what gives you that impression?

I tossed a 500lb LGB about a mile past the range fence once, luckily it was into an uninhabited canyon area.  I also saw the hud tapes from a 4-ship of F-15Es that dropped a total of 24 500lb high-drag mk-82s about 2 miles short, barely making it inside the range boundary fence.  We live/breath ballistics, and still make the occasional hideous mistake.  So it doesn't surprise me that mythbusters eventually lobbed something off the range.

Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

Do you think the insurance companies will buy this?

'Hello how may I help with your claim?'
'Yes, a cannonball smashed my truck'
'.......'


I pity these people when they try to make a claim  :D

We had the travel trailer sitting on a campsite on the Guadalupe River one time with the door open. A bird flew in crashed into the other side, got up and flew out. I'm sure he was going WTF I was chasing a bug and got whacked.

I'd imagine that a company with a net profit of over $700m/year is just going to buy them a nice new one with a little extra stfu money on the side.
