* BaitAndSwitchComment:
** The narrator of "Can a Modern Main Battle Tank Defend Against a Baguette?" comes up with the solution of shooting a tank with a HESH explosive but admits few people would have that just lying around. So then he instructs the viewer to build one with the components they ''do'' have lying around and use a baguette as an improvised shell before shooting it out of a cannon they happen to have in their basement.
** Turning a shopping cart into a turret with anti-rocket measures unfortunately makes it impractical for manual propulsion, so the obvious solution is to jam an engine into it.

Aka "that SurrealHumor WebSite/YouTube channel that involves improbable uses of military hardware."

[[https://www.youtube.com/c/BosnianApeSociety Bosnian Ape Society]] is a WebSite/YouTube channel focused mainly on SurrealHumor. While there are a few videos involving live-action footage, most of the channel's content involves rendered CGI, and mostly (and most famously) involves the use of military hardware in incredibly improbable situations and equally improbably purposes.

----
!! Bosnian Ape Society provides examples of:
* EldritchAbomination: Played for laughs with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKyPtnuh8bM the Computer Toucher]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMABQtw0smI The Shredded Cheese Man]], though one is much more genuinely threatening than the other. The Computer Toucher literally just touches your computers and leaves, explicitly stating that he won't touch anything else or alter the computer in any way. The Shredded Cheese man, however, will tempt potential victims into their refrigerators with the promise of giving them shredded cheese and then traps them in what looks like WebOriginal/TheBackrooms when he succeeds... [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And also commits tax fraud if you look away from the refrigerator.]]
* NoKillLikeOverkill: Considering the channel's habit of involving military hardware in mundane situations, this is inevitable. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2xNlzsnPCQ The Tennison Gambit Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Variation]] in particular involves using a intercontinental ballistic missile to ''win a chess game''.
* NonIndicativeName: Nothing in the channel's content is connected to Bosnia or apes in any meaningful fashion.
* SurrealHumor: Most of the channel's videos revolve around this.
