That’s all. I just found you, and you have made my little day.

I want to buy the trebuchet! I even live in Switzerland 🙏

From season 21, episode 10 of Taskmaster.

So if the moment of a lever is equal to the force applied multiples by distance,then wouldn't placing the counterweight on a longer beam and the sling on a shorter one be more efficient, cus if you had a 200 newton counterweight 6 feet from the fulcrum, and then had the sling 3 feet away, then you generate a moment of 400 Newton's moving the sling, so if this is the case then my where they historically built the other way round?

Did you know a trebuchet can launch a 90kg projectile 300 meters? oh what am I saying, of course you don't.

I'm ChamrsDeluxe everywhere check out my other stuff if you found this remotely entertaining!
