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?

That was amazing! lol but seriously where is the dummy
Used to have a car i made out of k-nex as a kid. Built in crumple zones, doors, boot, bonnet ( all with locks) and it had steering. Used to crash test it by slamming it as hard as i could into a wall, constantly making changes, how can i make this lighter but still strong. Even mounted eggs or the video camera in it from time to time. Never broke an egg or the camera.
Rest in peace Paul Walker.
