Archery: Will it EVER be the same again? Wow. 
Cool automatic crossbow/bow auto reloading device. 
For any freepers who live in countries where gun are banned or hard to get, ( Like California ) something like this could be a game changer in self defense. 
This device is amazing in it's simplicity and is literally a "genie out of the bottle" in terms of easy to make with 3-D printing or even basic wood working/metalworking skills, can be made by either modifying existing bows or making your own. 
The ability to make a "magazine" for quick re-loading is a neat idea too.

    Not much bolt/arrow speed using bungee cords for energy.
 Draw weight 12 lbs?

    The Chinese repeating crossbow was devised centuries ago.

    I’ve seen these before. Noisy loading mechanism. Could be fun for target shooting.

    If you’re going to shoot an arrow at someone you’d better be a damn good shot and not miss.

    That draw weight in the vid would not make 50 yrds.
 Even at 45 degree elevation.

    If only Katniss (Hunger Games) and Hawkeye (Avengers) had known about the machine gun bow!

    Did I miss it, or why did he never load or fire an arrow?

    That guy is having entirely too much fun.
Some Democrat has to arrest him for laughing so much. :)
I see has many other videos on various types of weapons.
Thanks for posting!

    There’s a Scandinavian guy who shoots with a handful of arrows while running and jumping.
