Water Jet Power Demonstrates Cutting Force at Grenoble
A Grenoble factory uses water stored six hundred feet up the hills as a reservoir. A vertical tube under an inch in diameter feeds the jet to drive a turbine wheel. Tests show a strongest man cannot cut the jet with a sword, and the lade can break into small fragments without spilling a drop. A jet of very thin thickness, if moving fast enough, could not be cut by a rifle ball.
