BIG OOOPS - help

Thanks for the info on the technique.

I did the edge of a roll of tape - but te rubber mallet produces better impulse transfer - a physics term, and why an egg thrown against a blanket doesn't break but one thrown against a wall does. Both go from 50 MPH to 0 in a short amount of time, but the time with the blanket is MUCH longer than the wall, which is instantaneous - so the force is much greater. The mallet produces a much quicker impulse of energy and the barrel dislodges.

and if the mallet bounces, it delivers an even greater impulse Haha physics works!
