Explosive Arrows!
The slow mo video is really impressive, as is how well the arrows worked!

I’m dubious. I don’t think you could put that much explosive in that little shaft and it still be strong enough to come off the bow in one piece.
Looks rigged to me.
Yeah I got thinking about that too. He wasn’t bundled up in Kevlar or any blast shielding, and while the acceleration of the arrow off the string is likely more gradual than hitting the target, the watermelon wasn’t THAT substantial a target, and all shots there was a full pass-through. So why wasn’t he concerned about a home made arrow blowing up when he pulled his trigger, but still having it blow up when it hits a piece of produce?
Still no matter how he got the explosion to happen, it was a good explosion, and good video of it!
