This experiment quantifies the recoil force experienced by a shooter in a simulated frictionless environment. Matt Carriker of Demolition Ranch uses a harness and measuring board to demonstrate how different firearms, from a .22 LR Ruger 10/22 to a .50 BMG Lynx, push a shooter back. The results highlight a clear correlation between caliber, firing rate, and the magnitude of recoil displacement, illustrating Newton's Third Law in a practical, albeit extreme, scenario.
