Author Topic: Egg drop  (Read 2691 times)

How do you drop an egg from a 3rd floor window and not have it break?
The egg and the container must freefall the whole way and impact the ground.

Lots of cushioning...what did you think?


You don't.
Wrong
It's doable.  Try peanut butter.  But I'm not allowed to for physics...

theres a mythbusters episode where they did just that.

I made a contraption in Gmod for this, but it was for a melon. :D

To drop it from a 3 story building without breaking eh?

Make sure there are lots of people at the bottom.

I used cardboard with a cone on the bottom and lots of stuffing. it worked well, but that was one story.

When I saw this topic I thought of Egg drop soup, which is awesome.

I did it. At astro camp. Basically we just wrapped in a bunch of packing stuff, other people cared about how fast it fell, us, we just cushioned it. :3

Try braking the egg before hand. Tiny little pieces are less likely to brake than a full egg.

Drop a fake egg then say it was real.
