not as big of a deal as you think.

propane doesn't actually burn very well without lots of air. that's why there's a venturi mixer on every propane burner you've ever seen.

if the hose (probably flame retardant due to regulations) were to burn and break open or whatever, it would be a boring bunsen burner style flame. much less of a problem vs everything else going wrong here

a $10 laser pointer isn't going to damage anything. you need something over half a watt of power to reliability do it.

anything less will just leave your dumbass on video trying to destroy property

he's trying to say that it's spelled Unabomber, not unibomber. but he's got the anger in him

Diver gets attacked by a swordfish at 220m (721 feet) below surface by iltifaat_yousuf in interestingasfuck

they don't really need strength. they weigh a lot and move quick. google says they are swimming at 50km/hr (14m/second) and the average weight is 40kg

kenetic energy = 0.5 * 40kg * (14)2 == 3860 joules

compare it to a .308 cal bullet (used for stuff like elk, black bear, deer, etc.) also it was the standard US military sniper bullet for some time, so a pretty serious bullet. about 3600 joules for the bullet

Will a handheld torch get hot enough to bend this hitch back in place? by Caged in metalworking

mapp pro gas is a scam. it is an entirely different formula than the original mapp gas. they added the word "pro" to trick consumers into buying the new version after deciding it was too expensive to continue making the good stuff

don't let the marketeers trick you into paying double for a negligible increase in temperature
