It's defintiely more visible than its original location in the UK pavilion. Back then you really had to know where to look to see it, and even then you only saw the last foot or two of the barrel.

(sounds of metal cutting/welding/hammering)

Honey, why did you just run down to the shop, and why are there 8" pipe and flanges on the kitchen table ???:eek:

Oh if I only lived far enough away to really get in touch with the pryo inside me.

Actually, I was thinking it looked like something the MythBusters would build. :lol:

Actually, I'm pretty sure they have built that same sort of thing - not to launch pyro, but I think to launch chickens at aircraft canopies or something like that.

Also, if any of you have seen any of the Pumpkin Ch__________' stuff on TV, the throwers that are the biggest and throw the furthest are the big air cannons...they look like a scaled up version of the original posted picture (and I mean scaled up - some of them can be more than 60 feet long)
