Video: Homemade weapons test ends with explosive results

These guys were extremely lucky not to have been injured after testing out their homemade rubbish cannon in a public street.

These guys were extremely lucky not to have been injured (or killed) after testing out their homemade cannon in a public street.

We’re not sure whether these Polish guys were simply testing out their homemade cannon because they had nothing better to do with their time, or whether they’re just getting ready in case the Russians begin to start marching west, but whatever they were doing, it certainly doesn’t look safe.

The highly explosive cannon in question looks to be made of an old rubbish bin filled with some plastic sheeting and what we can only assume was A LOT of gunpowder.

Needless to say, we don’t think anyone should try this at home…
