Make It Real: Batman Grappling Hook Gun

The grappling hook gun can shoot distances of up to 150', using 3mm kevlar rope which is rated for 2000lbs! It is lightweight, and probably the smallest grappling hook gun ever created. In our next video we will be finishing our prototype 8HP electric superwinch that will allow us ascend buildings faster than anything commercially available!

The building looks like a place where Batman would fight crime ... perfect

[hacksmith]

What'd you guys think of the prototype SUPER WINCH? It's going to allow us to ascend buildings as fast as Batman!

... i.e. I'll have a high probability of ripping my shoulder out of its socket we're going so fast!!! Subscribe to see the next part of this project!

My dreams always get crushed when I see what a movie gadget would look like in the real world. Can't wait to see how yours works.

[BobMarley-bxlx]

I feel like someone is waiting for you to finish all of these gadgets and then they're going to steal all of them and then actually become batman.

[finfiles]

I'm really disappointed in the mythbusters right now...

[jairusofall]

That is so good!! I'm inspired! The justice league will exist soon!

[chrisought]

I haven’t seen anything yet but a grapple gun would require a lot of force to pull a man up so I just hope your arm doesn’t come off while making this


Edit: oh I thought it was going to manually bring you up



Edit2: OH SHIT YOUR GONNA MAKE IT

[yeaboiii]

i like his style of video, where he explains stuff to us rather than just showing us what he's doing

[capabartz]

This is incredible. You guys have done what myth busters couldn't.

[emmettfranklin]

Can you make a video going over the launcher mechanism I’d love to see how it works.

[MrMitchellb]

When you're having trouble being Ironman. . . . so you focus on being Batman instead... Just kidding! love you guys!

[Batboy]

FINALLY YOU ARE CONTINUING THE BATHOOK

[thomashernandez]

cool!!! I love what you do Hacksmith and Team!!! Can't wait to see the ascension test! I really would like to keep seeing more superhero stuff! Ex: Green Arrow, Hawkeye, Robin, Whiplash, and maybe even some avatar gadgets!

[mikeevans]

More of the build process would have been awesome. Always fascinating to see how other engineers problem solve. Keep up the good work - you and Furze inspire me 👍

"the propulsion is a secret"
"It uses expanding gasses"
Built on an AR lower

You made a gun didn't you

[shawnmanclcheplick]

You should try and do the expandable cape from the dark knight.

With all the people making different types of Bat equipment somebody could actually just be Batman if you all put it together
