Frank Pizzo Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 In your living room ...that's how you get ants! But seriously, not sure if its REALLY hard or just HARD to do that. I'm gonna have to try some time then come back to the thread. Either way nice job man! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EJ Livesey Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Not worth it. The risk of filleting your thumb is huge. I was cringing the whole time. I put this in the same category as license plate ripping and nail driving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Barrel Shotgun Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Thanks for replies guys. And I am very stupid, thats why I did it inside OK EJ, i did not realise it was so high injury risk. I do not want to motivate people to try it and hurt them self! Working gloves would be good I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alawadhi Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Nice! But next time try outside WITH leather gloves 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toroza Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Nice job! Do you use the Rolling Thunder at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Barrel Shotgun Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 Nice job! Do you use the Rolling Thunder at all? Thanks Toroza! No, very rarely. I have the old version though, so I have the possibility to use RT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1stCoC Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I was told that making a can of soda or beer explode is a feat of strength not pure pressure applied to the stong but thin structure of the can . In the early days when Brookfield and I tried to burst a can we knew no better than hold the can tightly ,and finger tips did not come on contact with can( or potato for that matter) and the friction created through quick moving and spot pressure causes the can to rupture were not applied.An amazing feat ...if you know how to do it. From a pure strength pressure aspect I still think those items would be near impossible unless the "mechanical manipulations" are applied. Cool stunt none the less. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showed it to some people, most seem to think it's mainly a waste of a good beverage.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1stCoC Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Party trick of the highest order yes ,but a true feat of proving grip strength? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Barrel Shotgun Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Party trick of the highest order yes ,but a true feat of proving grip strength? I would say that this is mainly a party trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim71 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I've only ever busted one soda can and I learned from Steve McGranahan that you definately use a diet soda.....not sticky. You definately have to have a certain level of strength but as has been said, it's a showman type thing. It was easier than I expected quite honestly but I didn't do it the way you did. Now as EJ said, I'd definately use gloves. I ripped a license plate barehanded once and it ripped under my thumb and cut me pretty good. I'm sure a soda can could easily cut you even deeper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Tim It's not exactly the common way to burst soda cans. I train with Titan's Telegraph Key and I tested if it had any carry over to do this feat. I did 2 Thumbs first. Yeah, gloves on it is.

truth1ness Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 I loved the shaking up of the can first, as if bursting an unshaken can indoors wouldn't be messy enough on its own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
