Mythbusters Blow your own sail full scale

Are you ready to do this? Ready, well here we go, this is flying

your

own

sail

with the

full

size bone. I have to tell you, the funniest part of this whole experiment is when we first turned on that fan and the boat started spinning and we went down in one direction, Grant and I were both wide open. I guess we thought we were going there out of control, there's no forward movement, just a bunch of twists and crashes, so when we started and I fired, we started spinning. a circle and I was like this, that's it, let's go to the water.

I took it down and we tried to start and actually what I found was to keep vectoring the fan, if you keep it cool in the sale you can really get it. to keep going by increasing it

mythbusters

style, the team has apparently contradicted Newtonian physics it's working, they're

blow

ing out their own candle now this was crazy, we only got to three miles an hour, but we actually got motion, we got more movement and we were able to steer by pointing the wind towards different parts of the

sail

. I have to say that this is a successful day, they certainly go much faster with the fan back and there is no sale, but that is not the point the myth asks: can you power a sailboat with

your

own fan and you can't .

I don't know exactly what's going on because apparently we're flying against Newton's laws, but this is what I think is happening: we have a significant amount of thrust coming out of this fan, it's hitting the Navigate, the cell can only push so much , the rest of that dress reflects back, giving us a net push that pushes us back and forth in both directions because to prove that actual wind wasn't a factor, Grant and Kari sail both ways, dude. That was incredible, I can't believe it, we flew our own sails, this is totally confirmed, totally confirmed, I mean this went ahead with the wind of our own fans, they confirm it.
