AR10+Tannerite+Bowling Ball! (video)

So I had an idea to make a tannerite bowling ball launcher cannon thing and it worked out VERY well! lol. I made a video a while back where I used an old push mower deck to launch one, but it didn't go anywhere near as high as this one did! let me know what you guys think!

BTW, the gun Im using is an Armalite AR10, Burris pepr mount, and Nikon P308 scope. Just shooting some cheap perfecta ammo. Its the most recent rifle Ive added to the collection and I love it!

There is no music other than the outro at the end, so I assume you mean the sound effects. Ive had others say they like the sound effects actually. Cant always please everyone I guess. To each his own. Thanks for checkin it out anyway!

Hooligan, glad the bowling ball didn't come down on you. What did you do to fit the ball to the launch tube? I liked the video. Music sucked.

"What did you do to fit the ball to the launch tube?"

nothing special, I set the ball on top of the pipe just like it showed in the video.
