Description
I'm joking. There was no fire. The firemen came to my high school like four months ago to assist in our physics egg drop event. ^^ Basically, we had to make contraptions that, when dropped from a certain height, would keep the raw egg inside from breaking.Mine survived, by the way. ^^

You wrapped it in lots and lots and lots of newspaper, right? Riiiiiight?

We had one like that too, but didn't survive a 2nd floor throw. :<
But...from a firetruck's ladder..that's awfully...high.

YES. MUAHAHAHAHA. I was surprised that it worked, actually. O.o
o 3o Yeah, it's pretty fun. XD It could also help that we actually pay them to chuck random-looking things off of a ridiculously high ladder all day.

Maybe....they'd use popcorn next time to replace styrofoam.
Well, both sides get something, eh?C:

Awesome! That sounds like a fun project! What did your contraption look like? Have a photo of it?

XD I mainly used popcorn for mine to cushion the fall. And no, I don't think I have a photo of it. ;~;
