bwuhahahahaha that idiot in the video made my day, what a duche bag lol

This "orange pipe" if its the same stuff I'm thinking of, electrical conduit, then I would advise you not to use it. Unless you are prepared to film you shooting it so when it explodes we can have a laugh? :lol:

Hi mtronic,

That´s just about the only PVC you will find anywhere in Denmark (where the movie is from). You will not see rated pipe or 2-stage PVC cement anywhere, and if you find a plumber who has the pipe in stock, it will take some persuasion to make him sell it to you. The Scandinavian spudding tradition, if a such exists, does now know about pressure ratings, only about sewer pipe and expanding foam :lol: :lol:

This guy took the classic Scandinavian combustion, and scaled it up too much.

In the original version of the video, he fired first one successful shot (therefore the dent in the car door) and then the failure in the second short. Somebody cut the film in half.

(and no, it´s not me)

Regards
Soren
