The road wasnt even closed.....

I guess if that was a real steel ball it would weight around 20 ton by the size of it.

 

1 cube of steel weighs 7.5 ton that gotta be at least 3 cube.

 

The car woulda been dust.

Boom!!

 

Looks like the Foden hit in Saturday's rugby!

[Rupe]

I am dissappointed in you Tony.

 

That law only works with masses of equal weight and density

 

The wrecking ball is obviously a much greater mass than the car and the car absorbs energy because it is of a different density.

 

Well done dean, you beat me to it.

 

Except that in this case the ball is obviously a much lesser mass than the car.

I worded that wrong Rupe

 

It should have read, " The wrecking ball would obviously be a much greater mass had it been real"

 

[Rupe]

I think I got you meant, just picking!!

MMMmmm guys, you just love it!

 

the ball doesnt stop altogether anyways, it pushes the car forward a fair way and falls back and sways too, but hasnt it ben established as a fake now?

[Rupe]

No, its staged, not a fake, we think.

 

Did you ever see the pictures of a car falling in a bay, then the recovery truck falls in, and then a larger crane truck falls in etc etc. That was true at first then faked digitally but no intention to fake at the time.

 

This, I'm fairly sure, is staged for a film or tv advert maybe.

[Dean Lofthouse]

That wrecking ball might as well be a large balloon filled with air and painted grey, infact is probably is

[Mozza]

Could it not just be a very well made car? haha

[Rupe]

An LDV?? Maybe not!!
