The weapons of Assassin's Creed 3 tested by FPS Russia

The weapons of Assassin's Creed 3 were given a real-life test drive in FPS Russia's latest video.

FPS Russia is a popular YouTube channel run by Kyle Myers, who portrays Russian Dmitri Potapoff as he tests the real world version of weapons featured in video games.

In the Assassin's Creed 3 video recently posted to the channel, Myers' Dmitri Potapoff character throws a real tomahawk at a mannequin, loads a black powder pistol with gun powder and fires it and launches a three-inch canon that has a range of more than 4,000 yards.

Potapoff has previously tested weapons featured in Activision's upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. Early this year he uploaded a video of himself controlling a Drone Parrot wrapped in camouflage blowing up mannequins.
