Show transcript0:00My name is Gay Wilkinson here in Farmington, Missouri at Engler Park on a beautiful afternoon, and we're going to launch some anvils.0:06And by that I mean we're going to put some black powder between 2 anvils and ignite that with a fuse, and it'll cause the top anvil to fly 100 feet in the air or so.0:15Uh, depends on how firm the foundation is, but it should, uh, remain airborne until gravity overtakes it, and it'll land pretty close to where it took off from.0:25Why in the world would we want to do that? I get that a lot from women, you know.0:29Women say, why would you want to do that? And I don't know other than it's just neat launching something that really wasn't intended to be launched, I think.0:36Uh, men pretty much think, wow, that's pretty cool, will it really do that?0:39Where women have a different view. But I mean, I think everyone that's seen it will, um, agree that it's a spectacular event where you're, uh, throwing something that's a 100 pounds into the air with relative ease and landing really predictably where,0:54where you want it to.0:55Hi, I'm Keegan Hamilton with the Riverfront Times, and I'm here with world champion anvil shooter Gay Wilkinson.1:00We're about to launch an anvil. Gay, go ahead.1:03Um, this is, uh, something that's, uh, spectacular, I believe.1:07I think you'll enjoy it. As soon as we lean down here and light this fuse, we're going to make a run for it, so hopefully you'll enjoy it as much as we do.1:14Okay, you about ready?1:17Light it up.1:17Okay.1:20Fire in the hole.1:22Here we go.1:25You're, you're awful close to.1:29Okay, about the time you think it ain't gonna go, it's gonna go.1:34Yay!1:36You hear it ringing?1:41About the joy of sex, but it don't last like the fun of shooting anvil.1:47What do you think?1:48That was awesome.1:50Now go pick that anvil up. Oh, you know, you helped me load it.1:52I mean,1:52Yeah.1:52it's heavy, but it just swung it like it was nothing.
