Of course you do.
Last April, manufacturing giant General Electric started releasing videos showing how their materials testing procedures affected everyday objects. And here’s the supercut:
It’s not that GE is smashing stuff in their labs for fun everyday, they are subjecting parts and materials to intense pressures and forces to determine if, when, and how they fail. While a GE-manufactured part might stand up to 100,000 pounds, rubber ducks, baseballs, and coffee mugs certainly can’t.
And that erosion air gun scares the crap out of me.
ahh yes, my everyday glass camera.
legos?!?
Or, just save on machinery and have my boys (or as we call them, the four horsemen of the apocalypse) be your product testers.
This is so oddly fascinating to watch…
I wished they would have shown what the items looked like after the crush testing.
At least the tennis ball. It looked like it was rebounding nicely.
Rubber Ducky from the promo at least.
