Crash test between a 2009 Chevrolet Malibu and a 1959 Chevrolet Bel Air with both going 40 mph (64 km/h) and the vehicles collide offset, driver side to driver side. This is the same crash configuration represented by the Institute's 40 mph frontal offset barrier test, which is used to rate the frontal crash performance of new cars.

 

[Kurdt]

There was an interesting crash test between a brand new Renault Modus (small car) and a 90's Volvo (large car). Surprisingly the modus won.

They even included fuzzy dice hanging from the rear view in the Bel Air....

Don't do this at home or on the streets or anywhere else for that matter - unless you're really good!

I like this video. My friend made it, he is an aspiring director. I play a short part in it also. It's a spoof on those old 1970's movie trailers for action movies. With corny lines and all.

I'm thinking the driver of the Malibu would fair better. I'm surprised how badly the passenger compartment of the Bel-Air is distorted considering how big it is (plus bouncing off all of those hard parts in the interior can't be too good even if the passenger compartment maintained its shape).

Note that neither car goes backward. The battle of momentum is a draw and the cars rotate around each other.

Here's some tests between mini/micro cars and mid-size cars. Even if they designed a stronger passenger compartment, it's tough to get around the fact that the driver that was once going 40 mph forward is suddenly going backward.

My favorite commercial:



Yeah, they take a little dramatic license there. The spacecraft and uniforms look more like they came from the art department than the engineering section and it obviously takes more than 30 seconds to maneuver a satellite out of the way of debris.

And, the JSpOC monitors objects in space - the satellites are actually controlled from various other places, but you have to take some liberties to compress that scenario into 30 seconds.

In fact, the real process usually takes a few weeks since you're usually avoiding dead debris affected only by natural forces and you want to incorporate the collision avoidance maneuvers into normal station keeping maneuvers to conserve fuel. But, the overall concept is accurate, even if not quite as exciting as the commercial.

They filimed the commercial at a real Air Force facility and used Air Force personnel instead of actors (but they did such a good job you probably can't tell they're not professional actors ). One of the people I work with is young enough that she's actually worked with about half the people in the commercial.

I had to watch it two times before I got it! So I guess I am half a kid :)

Here's a good one I just saw today.
The postman forgets to put the truck in park and it goes out into traffic.
And then it comes back on its own.

Watch and learn kids.

The solution is definitely not condoms; http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/121390799/abstract". The solution is: Grow up, be a man, and discipline your child.

Copy just the letter-number code (after the v= ) from the Youtube video, and paste it between https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=[ /YOUTUBE]. It's easier if you use the TV icon.

I sent the above video to Ivan and asked him to post it for me, as I am at work. I just LAFFED MY BUTT OFF over this one.

[Tsu]

Yeah. That's when I started rolling on the floor. I first lost it when the whole plate of cookies started screaming. Maybe I'm just TOO twisted and perverse, but I thought it was one of the funniest things I'd seen in ages! My FACE hurt when I was done laughing.

 

[Astronuc]

The video series is cited in jimmysnyder's thread on science and politics.

This vidoe is interesting since it shows a meteorite striking the ground. It was caught on tape by folks filming a commercial. What are the odds?

 

[Borek]

What are the odds?

If it was in script? 100%. If not - no idea.

I believe a word "Dramatization" can be read somewhere in the video.

 

[whome9]

At what time in the video do they show the meteorite?

It's not real Astronuc. First it says across the bottom of the screen that it's a dramatization, then the professor says, "by the way, this movie is not real".

 

[humanino]

Ah, Evo, you are such a sceptic.

 

[Astronuc]

Yeah - I skipped the very front of the movie - as I'm not patient. I was looking for disclaimers later.

This was right after I saw a program on TV about some guy who was actually killed by a meteroite strike while standing in the back yard at a party. I think the other folks thought he was killed by lightning, but apparently they retrieved the meteorite. The guy was standing at the edge of pool, and the meteroite apparently went through his chest into the pool.

Umm, at :36 you can clearly see someone in the truck.

I found this one while searching for the dog story above. I don't know what the search engine thought it had to do with a dog lost at sea but, this one is funny. The Russians must be practicing for NASCAR.

I don't know what you're seeing, or what your idea of "clearly" is, but I'm pretty sure they're both wrong.
