Just come across this interesting slow mo of a Sherman firing its gun (and a RU 152mm)

phpBB [video]


At full speed you hardly see the gun recoil.

Interesting find! Love the shockwave shots. Interesting to see a 152mm artillery shell being deflected by only four melons :O Who needs sandbags, or Chobham? :haha:
All you need is- a melon! (apologies to the Beatles). The video following this one, where Gav and Dan drive an Easy 8, is also worth a wee watch. :D

Crazy, would have never thought the a shell would wobble like that. Maybe the sermon barrel had some issues?
