Muzzleloading cannon are generally legal to own and shoot without any license.

What is it they say at the beginning of the show? “The Mythbusters are experts with years of professional experience. Don’t try this at home”.

Instead, it passed over the barrels, through the wall, and then took a "very unfortunate bounce that sent the ball skyward," Nelson said.It's called grazing fire with solid shot. Was a favorite for about a century. Ugly results into massed ranks. It just don't stop. See Gettysburg for the results.

The cannon was shot at the Sheriff's Office bomb range behind Santa Rita Jail... That's by the Camp Parks Army Reserve Base. They should have known better. They should have aimed the cannon at Pleasanton. We hate Pleasanton. It's too... pleasant.

In the Civil War many a MidWest farm boy lost a lower leg when he kicked at a cannonball rolling through the Infantry lines. Mother Nature in the name of inertia is a bitch!

I thought the headline was a metaphor, and not a very good one. But they’re talking about a real canonball!

Major ooops! If only they’d make this into a show entitled, “We are professionals, please do not attempt this at home”, lol.
