There was an event a few years ago in which a ski area used a 105 to do avalanche control. The crew put in the entire charge (it’s in 5 sections) and launched the projectile over the ski area, over the mountain, and into a village. Oops!

That’s an insurance claim that would be fun to submit.

did the hyneman ever find his handmade missing cannonball from a long ago previous episode?
IIRC, it was lost on the long runway near some docks.

I always thought a more truthful statement would be “We have expensive insurance in case we screw things up, do not try this at home.”
