Cutting Down A Tree With A Minigun - Neatorama

The folks at Mythbusters are at it again. This time Kari Byron tested to see how long it would take for a M-134 Minigun to fell a tree. This neat clip demonstrates the gun's amazing rapid rate of fire. Oh! and yes...it took 45 seconds to bring down the tree!!

That was awesome! To bad it wasn't a real tree with tree huggers in it.

Agreed brian. They probably missed 50% of the time at least.

Also, was anyone else surprised at how there was no visible recoil? I'm sure mounting it helped, but it didn't seem to be recoiling at all.

It probably would have gone faster if they had shot the trees at a closer range.

Let me add to the last statement....any of us who have had a cherished pet,possesion,etc are all Calvins.I named my first dog Hobbes after my favorite comic character.She was to me what Hobbes was to Calvin.Best friend ever! When she passed I lost my true friend and companion of 14 years! The emptiness in my heart and house were unbearable so I got a new dog already named Ivy.She has the heart and soul of Hobbes.This was 9 years ago.The chance to get a male golden retriever was upon me about 4 years ago.He is Calvin! With his mischief,energy and love of his sister Ivy I feel so blessed. So anyone who has any kind of bond with anything or anyone are truly"Calvin and Hobbes".
