Pretty neat to watch.  Prince rupert drops have some interesting characteristics.  Namely they are very strong on the thick end, but weak in the tail.


His first video about them:  

Mystery of Prince Rupert''s Drop at 130,000 fps - Smarter Every Day 86




He shoots them with .22lr (neckbeard?)

Bullet vs Prince Rupert''s Drop at 150,000 fps - Smarter Every Day 165




He takes it up to some FMJ ammo in a new video released today (a 22mag and a 38 special)... the results are impressive

.38 Special vs Prince Ruperts Drop at 170,000 FPS - Smarter Every Day 169




AR and AK are next

Maybe we should chip in and get him an AR for Round 3, since he only has a Mini.

Here's the next video about them... he shoots it with a mini-14.. "it's comparable to an AR-15 except I like poor man's guns" LOL
