Question: Why does it explode? I understand the powerful contraction, but I don't get how it caused an explosion (e.g. no fuel, spark, etc.)

9 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

The clear balistics gel has some kind of volitile chemical in it

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 2

Air. Air is fuel in the right circumstances, and the extreme contraction causes air to condense as the cavity collapses. I think that's it.

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 4

Air is the oxidizer. Gel fumes from the extreme heat of impact is the fuel.

Sure, but they do not continue through from the butt and out the mouth as the bullet would have to be doing for the entrance to be a butt.

So you're saying if someone takes it in the ass, throws up and then releases hot gas from the rear enterance way that this is not a fart?

Pretty cool how it does it. It has an additional elbow joint on the inside of it's arm shaped like a saddle. It pulls it's arm into a 1/2

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Curled position and locks it under the saddle joint which holds all the pressure. Then when it punches it just moved the lock and BOOM

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Not really. Mantis shrimp causes sonoluminescence in the collapsing bubble. This only has residual gasses and heat from the cartridge... /2

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That, as the collapsing bubble increases pressure, combusts. This is indicated by the smoke coming out of the entry hole.

Pistol shrimp and mantis shrimp aren't the same. Mantis shrimp punch, pistol shrimp have a big claw that kills with cavitation alone.

Thank you! The description was very similar so I assumed they were one. Amazing that shrimp have two species with this!

No, there are two types in mantis shrimps, one has pair of clubs while other has the pair of spears, both resembling mantis front limbs. 1/

Pistol shrimp has asymmetrical claws, but more traditional and not mantis like. With the larger being able to do the cavitation bubble. 2/2

It's theorized that they can see most of the gasses that are invisible to us. So seeing more colors would make us blind, ironically enough.
