Lawn mower explosively disassembles

Yeah.

1. Theres a nubby or bump on the ground that gets touched at the point of release.

2. The front end of the mower seems to be where the launch pressure is. If it were the engine, it would be launching from the middle

3. The stuff flying around in a vertical shaft engine would want to fly out horizontally - there’s nothing in there that wants to explode downwards, which is what would be needed to launch the mower upward.

4. What was buried in the yard and who would do that? Not a small boom.
 
Another thing is the cylinder, crank, and blade all run and rotate horizontally. So where does all of that vertical energy coming from, that throws the whole thing at least 5 feet in the air ? More AI doctored nonsense..... Like half of everything else on Youtube these days.

Good analysis. Something fishy about this video.
 
If you look at the color of the smoke, and the all but instantly large amount of it, it reeks of some type of pyrotechnic. Low horsepower, single cylinder 4-stroke engines don't blow like that. They just don't.

Project Farm has several videos of these type of engines letting go. And none of them do so that violently. Most just quit. There just isn't enough fuel or kinetic energy on tap to put on that big of a show.

I'm also fairly convinced it is fake. I've seen some badly blown lawn mower engines and none had enough force to cause the mower itself to move like that. Maybe if the blade hit a stationary object like an underground pipe just right?
