A Smashing good time

One of the (few) perks of my job is that I get to attend crazy events from time to time - like the video below.

It's basically where we shoot a two-by-four at 100 miles per hour at two walls - each representing the two most common types of homes built - a siding clad home over a wood stud wall and a brick exterior over a wood stud wall.

For the third wall, a Poly Steel concrete form home, we shoot two-by-fours at 300 mph.

See the difference...
