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?

What we learned here is never buy a LEGO Technica Porsche 911. Theyre hazardous to driver’s safety.

Moderate overlap frontal crash at 224mph (scale)-1 star
Damn, I thought it would actually do worse…but I think that wasn’t too too bad!

As an owner of the Lego GT3 RS, that hurt to watch.
