As is so often the case, the last video recommendation of the day is off topic. But that doesn't make it any less fun.

Do you know Railguns? No?

Imagine an electric motor that doesn't turn a crankshaft in a circle, but accelerates a projectile sled on a straight line. Actually a military concept, but you can also use it at home to torture sausages and candles, or to launch homemade paper airplanes.

Tom Stanton had nothing better to do with his time, and built such a railgun. And he bought sausages. 😜

The result is as worth seeing as it is funny, and may be an entry point for your own experiments with electromagnetism. Anyway, very worth seeing.

[Editor's Note: During the production of this video, no sausage was seriously harmed ... only eaten. 🌭]
