Long time ago I watched some old timers in the neighborhood shoot 5’ oxygen tanks into Lake Michigan like torpedos. They had built a ramp out of angle iron mounted in the back of a pickup truck. Ramp surround the tank on four sides with thevalve end exposed. Theyd stand outside the truck bed and wack the valve off with a wood splitting ax ducking behind the bedside.
Those tanks would shoot acouple hundred feet some a perfect trajectory some would skip and flop around. I was a teenager at the time and thought it was crazy but pretty cool to see. I had bad role models
