Watch A Lego Porsche 911 Fail Crash-Testing Quite Badly
There's a good reason why full-size cars aren't made out of Lego. Actually, there are many reasons for that, but for some reason German safety meisters the ADAC decided to crash-test a Technic Porsche 911 GT3 RS anyway...
In what has to be the most compellingly watchable and brilliantly simple video we’ve seen in a long time, German safety outfit ADAC has crash-tested a Porsche 911 GT3 RS… made of Lego.
The block-built Lego Technic model, which retails at £260 from the Lego Shop (£176 from Tesco), is slammed into a plate of something solid at 28.5mph and the results are rather dramatic.
This 3m15s video only features a single crash (who’d want to rebuild the car?), filmed from multiple angles to give you a glorious repeat performance of the impact to the perfectly-selected backing of Strauss’ Blue Danube Waltz. Who says the Germans don’t have a sense of humour?

So, a 224 mph crash in 1:1 scale
With that in mind, I think it preformed the test quite well. No street car is going to handle a 224 mph crash and not fly into a million pieces.
Crash testing a volvo from lego
I wonder if the pieces just came apart or if they actually shattered.
I suspect they mostly came apart. The individual pieces are part strong and the force will go through the weak points, which is just where a piece is attached to another.
Id say that’s a pass for a 220mph crash
Handled damn well for a LEGO. Remember that it is 28.5 mph
Leggo the car bruh, oh no… It’s hit the wall
Better than a Mk2.
Rip me.
I wonder how many stars did it get.
Sorry about your car bro. How much for the engine?
“Fail Crash-Testing Quite Badly” What you expect? It’s Lego!
