[ Hi,
we have to do an experiment in school in which we have to throw a raw egg from the first floor and prevent it from breaking my using concepts involving physics namely impulse.
since almost everyone is doing something with parachutes i decided to go for something else like wrapping the egg in wool or something but that's too plain. is Is there any other idea?
thanks

How about combining the two ideas you mention?

Also, a quick search for egg drop or egg protector might give you more ideas.
