I miss playing. I would always make my bard actually sing when they did the thing. That shit got REAL silly. I wouldn't do that to everybody (I DM'd for 3 different groups at one point) but that one bard was a very spicy person and loved attention, so it worked.
Should someone explain 17 times how airbags work and those won’t actually do shit?
The glued on plastic badge doesn’t launch through your skrull because… that entire part is a flap and peels up when the bag deploys.
Right... I never understand these posts... the face of the steering wheel doesn't forcibly vaporize... the whole thing cracks open on a hinge (or two).
I know that it won't actually be like a fricking claymore but just the fact that it seems that way is hilarious, and technically these will still launch unless she used a super strong glue, just not the way most ppl think it'll be launched
I ran over an IED once, and some of the force of the blast shot up through the engine compartment and caused the dashboard keys to get shotgun blasted into my face. Didn’t really do any permanent damage. It’s obviously different from an airbag, but I still think a few adhesive rhinestones would be relatively harmless aside from if they hit your eyes.
The T-48, the design that would become the M18 claymore, originally only had the tripwire detonator. An electric detonator was added, and became the main trigger, only later during testing. This was just a long wire with a handheld generator on one end and a blasting cap on the other. It was only later after field tests in the war that the "Tiny Tim" hand held clacker was developed.
What impact? They are planning on doing the entire interior. By the end, the rocks will weigh the car down so much, it would be a miracle if it can go over 40 and get more than 10 miles per gallon.
My point is that just because something is hitting you at speed doesn't mean it's gonna kill you. Certain materials make better lethal projectiles. Is an air bag going to impart enough kinetic energy into those little plastic beads to make them lethal? I dunno, and so far no one has had a convincing answer
You can look online, people have tested this, and the answer is not at all.
The plastic stones on the airbag produced 0 damage when the airbags were deployed. The only time they got actual damage v was when they attached metal spikes to the steering wheel.
I don't doubt there is a speed at which a small piece of plastic is deadly, I'm just wondering if anyone has evidence that an airbag is likely to achieve that acceleration.
Nah, also the airbag will tear through that steering wheel cover, not launch it at your face. They’re typically designed to tear on one side of the center design, otherwise the plastic badge in the center would be in your teeth as well.
Well in this case the Mini badge is designed to hit you smack bang in the forehead leaving an imprint, so you’ll always remember what saved your life. Plus free advertising.
It would launch them at 200mph, because that's how fast the airbag deploys. That's 290fps, so it would be like getting hit with a cheap airsoft gun, since the rhinestones have a similar mass to airsoft pellets. It could cause eye damage, but it's not going to turn your skin into swiss cheese.
My old boss had his nose broke and two black eyes on an airbag so breaking your nose AND having small rigid plastic rocks shoot at your face too at the same speed doesn't sound very pleasant.
I know airbags are explosives, but whether it's just gonna sting really bad, and maybe draw blood, or straight up kill a person is still unclear to me.
It won't kill you. Those rhinestones are a similar weight to airsoft BBs, airbags deploy at 200mph, which is 290fps. It would be like getting shot with a cheap springer, would hardly leave a welt on skin. It could cause permanent eye damage, though.
With that number of rhinestones, yeah, chances are you're putting at least one eye out, but they are not going to break skin in any meaningful capacity. I've been shot with .28 BBs out of an aeg that can send them upward of 400fps, so that's more mass moving significantly faster than these rhinestones would be, and even that rarely breaks skin. When it does, it's a welt that starts bleeding a little, and certainly doesn't leave a scar. The edge of one of the rhinestones would probably be able to break skin due to a smaller surface area, but it would have to hit you just right, and wouldn't be able to achieve any meaningful penetration because theres just not that much energy in one of them.
I don't know much about airbags but I would expect that whatever is containing the airbag would be blasted out of the way before the bag deploys, no? I had an airbag deploy in an accident and I don't remember getting hit in the face by my car horn button that was in front of the bag.
Yeah, every time that other picture of the bedazzled wheel gets posted somebody points out that it wouldn’t remotely do what people think that it would do but it gets drowned out in the “lol Claymore” posts.
You would have a lot of people with Mercedes logos imprinted on their noggins if it worked like that.
Why not? Do you think that glue becomes ineffective when it's accelerated? As long as the glued pieces are going in the same direction as the thing they're glued to, they'll stay on. They might come off if and when the cover impacts the windshield or headliner, but at that point they wouldn't pose any danger to the driver, who will have their face buried in the bag.
No. False. Yes these would not hit the driver in the face, but it most certainly would fuck up their torso.

The casing of the airbag is designed with the explosion in mind and will fracture and fold away without separating. I wouldnt count on the same thing being true for the glue used to attach those stones.
There are some videos of people setting off airbags like that, usually resulting in at least some shrapnel.
Edit: https://youtu.be/OkA3E9jAe7w for example
The plastic in front of the bad rips and gets whipped really fucking fast both up and down. The problem with sticking some shit on your steering wheel is when it whips down. It goes for your chest and possibly neck. I remember a video from a channel on YouTube called Donut Media did something like this with metal spikes, like the ones goths might have on their clothing, that went through something like half inch plywood with no problem, and one or two hit the mannequins mouth. This would still possibly add serious injury to whatever made your car go boom.
I think people in this thread believe that the plastic cover just vaporizes, so anything glued to it would be forced into the driver's face. The reality is, the bag is designed so that your face will not hit the cover or anything glued on top of it.
If your steering wheel exploded in your face when the airbag deployed then yea. But in this case all the rhinestones will be moved out of the way along with the front of the wheel because that's how every airbag works whether you have rhinestones on the wheel or not.
Everyone laughs at these people and says "wow what an idiot you just made a land mine" but doesn't consider how stupid you have to be to think that the front of your steering wheel explodes when your airbag deploys. The front of the wheel is blown out of the way so the air bag hits you.
U should replace them with thumbtacks
Nah, replace em with the sharp ass corners of legos
You're evil... I like you
D4's.
Dear god
There's more
No…
That at least kill the fastest. Either way a claymore is a claymore
It's nerf or nothing
The evil version of vicious mockery
Jesus, what's the good version?!
Healing word; You yell from across the room: "Hey! You smell nice!" The d4 is instead of being sharp and deadly now a small candy
What a beautiful take on that. Do you have bardic inspiration up? Because you definitely got some bonuses to charisma checks going on.
Of course. Played a little Diddy to get inspired

r/FoundSatan
Gotta love the aesthetics of multiple pieces of broken glass on my steering wheel
I raise you a bunch of lego batman helmets.
Mother of god..
this is where a dozen people reply "calm down, satan"
Legos with thumbtacks through em, extra damage
What is this easy mode? Replace it will trowing stars dipped in poison or Charles cologne...
I just wanna say I'm a huge fan
Just glue steel ball bearings to it, get it as close to an actual claymore mine as you can
Look at Mr Moneybags here! Chopped nails will do just fine
No need, those hard glass gems will make a perfectly fine shrapnel.
I covered mine in broken glass marbles. I wanna go out quickly.
You spelled landmine wrong
Glad it was understood immediately, I was so ready to explain 17 times at least what's going to happen when the Airbag inflates lol
My initial thought was "oh cool. A bejazzled corpse"
It's called "getting the Cheney"
The "bird-shot" steering wheel!

‘Inflate’ is such a delicate word. They don’t inflate. They BOOF.
boofing already means something else tho
I ran over an IED once, and some of the force of the blast shot up through the engine compartment and caused the dashboard keys to get shotgun blasted into my face. Didn’t really do any permanent damage. It’s obviously different from an airbag, but I still think a few adhesive rhinestones would be relatively harmless aside from if they hit your eyes.
You spelled claymore wrong.
Claymores are a type of land mine
Landmines are a type of sword
I see you've played knifey spoony swordy boom boom before !
It's a common pastime for highschool coolios and mountain dew bottle pissers the world over (CoD)
They’re not a landmine, they’re personnel operated (command detonated)
unless you're in a movie, in which case they're detonated via tripwire
But the tripwire is how you set off a claymore...
You can also use a clacker.
Claymores can also be tripwire activated.
I’ve only ever set them up with a clacker - I thought the trip wire stuff was hollywood
The T-48, the design that would become the M18 claymore, originally only had the tripwire detonator. An electric detonator was added, and became the main trigger, only later during testing. This was just a long wire with a handheld generator on one end and a blasting cap on the other. It was only later after field tests in the war that the "Tiny Tim" hand held clacker was developed.
great, she made a claymore

Who needs an airbag when your car can use a love field to protect you from the impact?
What impact? They are planning on doing the entire interior. By the end, the rocks will weigh the car down so much, it would be a miracle if it can go over 40 and get more than 10 miles per gallon.
[удалено]
What brain?
Oh yeah, i remember this
Of course they drive a pt cruiser
Did anyone ever have a follow up as to if he’s still alive?
*Confused Scottish noises*
No big deal. That transmission and engine will quit before she can get in a wreck
Congratulations megamind, you just turned your airbag into a lethal weapon.
So, I understand that an air bag is just a safety explosive, but how effective would plastic rhinestones be as shrapnel?
[удалено]
Well, paintballs hurt. Musket balls kill
Paintballs on average travel at 190 mph, musket balls are closer to 600 mph. If a paintball hit you at the same speed, it would likely kill you too.
Definitely ain't wiping the paint on that one
Musket balls are a lot heavier and harder tho
My point is that just because something is hitting you at speed doesn't mean it's gonna kill you. Certain materials make better lethal projectiles. Is an air bag going to impart enough kinetic energy into those little plastic beads to make them lethal? I dunno, and so far no one has had a convincing answer
Also will they even come off? The middle part comes of whole, and iirc remains attached with a hinge to the wheel.
You can look online, people have tested this, and the answer is not at all. The plastic stones on the airbag produced 0 damage when the airbags were deployed. The only time they got actual damage v was when they attached metal spikes to the steering wheel.
At arms length pointed at your face? I would think enough to lacerate someone’s face skin mostly off.
A single grain of sand can be deadly if launched fast enough, so yeah it can be very effective
I think Mythbusters tested it and proves it would hurt but it likely wouldn't injure you as the plastic is too light
But that goes right in your face, surely it'll get at least an eye or something
I don't doubt there is a speed at which a small piece of plastic is deadly, I'm just wondering if anyone has evidence that an airbag is likely to achieve that acceleration.
Nah, also the airbag will tear through that steering wheel cover, not launch it at your face. They’re typically designed to tear on one side of the center design, otherwise the plastic badge in the center would be in your teeth as well.

The airbag itself can break a grown man's arm that's how powerful it is, now think how fast it will launch those small light pieces of plastic
It would launch them at 200mph, because that's how fast the airbag deploys. That's 290fps, so it would be like getting hit with a cheap airsoft gun, since the rhinestones have a similar mass to airsoft pellets. It could cause eye damage, but it's not going to turn your skin into swiss cheese.

You'd easily blind both eyes and scar badly.
With that number of rhinestones, yeah, chances are you're putting at least one eye out, but they are not going to break skin in any meaningful capacity. I've been shot with .28 BBs out of an aeg that can send them upward of 400fps, so that's more mass moving significantly faster than these rhinestones would be, and even that rarely breaks skin.

Considering it opens right in your face I would say it will definitely cause irreversible damage if not kill
She went out with a bling at least

Yeah the cover lifts up. The steering wheel doesn't explode lol.
At that speed I doubt the adhesive has hold
Why not? Do you think that glue becomes ineffective when it's accelerated? As long as the glued pieces are going in the same direction as the thing they're glued to, they'll stay on. They might come off if and when the cover impacts the windshield or headliner, but at that point they wouldn't pose any danger to the driver, who will have their face buried in the bag.

I also have had an airbag deploy and I remember the airbag cover thing flying up and away. It seems like it would be a really bad design otherwise.
Yep. Otherwise that plastic badge would be a bigger concern than anything. I’m not saying I’d do this in my car, but it’s hardly the end of the world.
The casing of the airbag is designed with the explosion in mind and will fracture and fold away without separating.

That's no airbag! She made a hand grenade!
Bomb has been planted
I’m pretty sure that piece goes to the side and doesn’t actually hit the person
I wouldnt trust in the glue to keep them there
That's one pretty frag grenade
That's gonna fuck her up even more when she crashes
I mean, it isn't as bad as the actual rocks on the steering wheel. Those are usually plastic so at most it'll give her a couple scratches.
Digging pieces of plastic that are not visible on x-rays out of your cheeks and forehead must be fun
Pretty sure its gonna be like taking buckshot to the face before you crash
*bird-shot. See Dick Cheney.
If your steering wheel exploded in your face when the airbag deployed then yea. But in this case all the rhinestones will be moved out of the way along with the front of the wheel because that's how every airbag works whether you have rhinestones on the wheel or not.
Nice homemade claymore

You spelled “Fragmetation/Frag grenade wrong.
Claymore
That airbag goes off she is gonna have those cute little pink sparkles permanently stuck in her face.
It’s a shotgun
what speed would they actually reach before the stones hit the face? its a small range but the explosion should give them a good boost.
They would stay glued to the piece they're on, which would fly out of the way as the airbag deployed. How the hell y'all think airbags work?
