17 million views on YouTube at time of posting, for a device that anyone capable of a modicum of critical thinking would understand would not even be capable of reaching that soda can, let alone destroy it.
The simulated recoil on firing really takes the cake
what utter poppycock

You could glue plugs into the ends of a bamboo section, thread a air port in and slowly pump it up. I suspect the burst pressure is fairly low.

Decades ago, someone made a bamboo bike frame. I don’t know how well it worked, or if it endured past a few miles.
