When a straw becomes a knife: demonstrated in Mr. Wizard’s physics experiment

Mr. Wizard: “Now if you do this in someone’s jugular the blood will come out like a water jet.”

I love this

Mr. Wizard really said hold my straw.

Anybody verified this experiment?

And this is how an aluminium plane traveling at near 500 mph , can go through a steel and concrete tower !

The trick is the thumb over the top. Trapped air keeps the straw from buckling, so all the momentum goes into that thin rim instead of crumpling it. Pull your thumb away and it just folds. Has anyone tried this with a paper straw?

This some Jason Bourne shit!

I dont remember this episode but is this how shanks are made?
