Saw this on another Forum and thought it might be interesting
How far has crash-worthiness progressed in 50 years? The Insurance Institute for Highway (IIHS) finds out, with the help of a 2009 Chevrolet Malibu and a '59 Chevy Bel Air. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xwYBBpHg1I |

its no surprise but it is interesting to actually see it proved. often you see the big old school cars (chargers, xr - xc, etc) and think they'd be pretty tough but they aren't designed to crumple.
whats even more amusing is reading the comments under the video. some people analyse things way too much. |
