There were also smaller repeater crossbows in similar style. I have seen a reproduction of those, but had not heard about these bigger ones. Interesting and I suppose upscaling the design gave it more power than the smaller ones that could be used without a tripod.

super cooooool!

Based on the size of the crossbow, it looks like it is a crossbow named 'yongdusamsisuno(용두삼시수노)' As a Korean, I feel happy to review Korean weapons.

Where can i buy war bows? Anyone?

thanks heaps for the video. dont discount low poundage as not being a military weapon though. most of modern soldiers are armed with assault not high calibure weapons (if you replace the lever with a ratchet/wheels. you can increase the poundage and power stroke length btw but u will reduce the rate of fire/assault component of wep)

This particular design of Korean repeating crossbow is actually from a 19th century military treatise. We don't know if earlier designs are different or not. Imjin War era Korean repeating crossbow may not be all that different from Chinese ones.

Bro didn't need to say "I'm in Canada". The Crocs reveal would have been sufficient

You sure your not in Scotland? It rains the minute you want to do something! That's a Daylite bow you got on that! haha! Awesome got one myself and i love those bows. Love the short history of the crossbow and i love korean history, it would be interesting to measure the power of one of those large heads because the heavier it is the more impact is should have. The weakness of the lamaller armour is it does have a lot of spaces between plates and with a high rate of fire i think you increase the chances you will hit one (this is pure theory). I don't think its slow as you think (not knowing the power) if we compare it to an arquebus for example that had an extremely low rate of fire...i think you get off like 20 bolts for 1 arquebus shot. I don't know this but I am guessing not all sailors wore armour? I am projecting European style onto Asia here so I could be completely wrong but if that is the case then rate of fire is much more deadly. Made smaller, so you can reach the handle easier and with the brace height correction...i think its pretty good.

Hi If the stock were shorter and the cocking lever a little longer, you would reach the lever and not have to fight with it.

Nice pice, Joerg Sparve would approve I'm sure.

That is one big beast, nice one!

Lol I definitely wouldn't rely on it as a hard nothing method but definitely good for sport.

A Korean ghost is laughing when you tell us about it’s features

1:49 Lenin? Is that you?

Lmao, it slung something alright, itself.

LOL your repeating crossbow was more of a bolt-action crossbow. But holy cow man! That thing shoots like a sniper!

This reminds me of Age of Empires 2 campaign where you get play as Admiral Yi and you gain the Chinese unique unit the Cho Ko Nu.

It's called a Woomera

Does thumb ring increase rate of fire

This is why Mongolia conquerd half the world. No one had a counter to this fast advancing attack.

Turtle ship

Holy cow that is amazing. The Koreans had some top tier tech

even if your wearing armour broken ribs arent fun, it dosent need to go through armour to break a rib underneath

Finally the long awaited video has arrived

Wow, I didn't know the Japanese ever had it that bad. Fighting against the Koreans at their naval peak, when they started putting metal in/on the boats AND The Ming. They're lucky to still be a country, let alone a race. Not saying those empires were that much stronger than Japan at the time (But they were), they were just RUTHLESS.

Great video Jack

NO. TALENT SHOWN. FOOL 🤐😱👎😏

Arabic or Persian ,not Muslim, 🤦🏽‍♂️

This bloke made a wumera haha indigenous australians been using these aince the dawn of time brother

That's one way to change genders, a bit brutal for my liking. #wearacup !

Hey, I’m pretty sure you just used it wrong bro. I’m pretty sure you have to swing it and then that top rope slips off just the top and then it releases the rock.

I was expecting the target to get hit at least. Any game would have moved to the next valley by the time you wrap the rope.

The smaller one is designed to launch poison. Considering the context of imjin war they lacked skilled archers and poison so this was a choice since it can substitute archers with strong bows while civilians like the elderly and women build these devices

Nice.

Whenever I’m around some bamboo I love tho make these out of a couple pieces. You can throw it hard enough to stick into a solid tree it’s nuts

Let me show u features

This is so cool to look at because, if you think about the time it takes to train a bowman, and then having this for someone who's relatively not as trained, is an amazing asset to have. Follow up question, because I know you've talked about different use cases for arrows, was there a similar situation regarding bolts? Fascinating stuff!

Any faster and Trudeau may confiscate your bow.

The Korean navy, actually had a Navy, and Navy trained people, the Japanese just had a bunch of transportation ships. Also the Korean ships had cannons, i'm not sure how many of the Japanese ships had cannons. The japanese though just because they could overrun the land, they didn't realize or properly understand logistics.

Rock out with the Crocs out! :P

Cool kill me something and make me Mongolian BBQ...

Portable

Besides shortening the stock, a bend in the cocking lever would make it less awkward to use without loosing leverage. You don't seem to need all the leverage you alread have, so room for an even stronger bow. : D The Roman ballista had a two person crew. Imagine if you had two guys "rowing" this thing.

Excellent demonstration dude, and the commentary is on point. Really does seem like something that wouldnt change the tides of war but definitely useful.

My God man, intrigue me then do that stupid move⁉️😮

Crocs

Giant repeating crossbow + Crocs = Awesome. Lol Great video man!

Lots of people use these every day in dog parks. It just throws a ball instead.
