For those of you who don’t know what a ballista is, it’s basically a huge crossbow that can shoot four-foot projectiles up to 100 yards. They were the weapon of choice for the Greeks and Romans.

The guys in this video decided to make their version of a ballista, using more modern equipment. Check out what happens when they shoot a copper spike at an old stove.
