Crash Testing LEGO Cars!

Check out Shopify: www.shopify.com/brickscience
In this video i build a LEGO Crash Test Simulator and crash test a bunch of LEGO Cars to see how well they can protect Ooblot, our LEGO crash test dummy.

yes

[@chriscummings4206]

I wish you had the Scooby-Doo van!

[@dr_ned_flanders]

Since in a crash, you want the energy to be absorbed by the car and not the crash test dummy. The one that breaks up the most (since Lego doesn't deform) would be absorbing the most energy and should therefore have the best rating. Great video and Lego engineering of the test track.

[@UnknownZYX_4085]

Yep

[@turnipaitor]

I was thinking the same thing

[@stoopidapples1596]

have you considered the car’s feelings tho?

[@anthonyina_bottle2443]

in the last one nothing really happened so i think that one did get its score well, the van did a bad job since the dummy flew across the back

[@jakob7116]

Yeah but not always, some of them had large parts come off and hit the driver

[@rickytickybobbywobbin7430]

I’m amazed how Lego designed all these cars to match their real counterparts so well, they even made the Mustang go sideways before it crashed

[@originalMEGUSTA]

Funny enough, in the mid to late 1960s the first and second generation of the Ford Mustang, as well as most cars at the time, were actually built with solid steering columns, so being impaled in the event of a front on collision was a genuine issue/concern

[@eddylee9637]

[@TheCatOfAges]

fords solid columns were designed to shear off, unlike chevrolets

[@jimmiechase9485]

The Chevy steering columns lead to the nickname, “The Impaler”

[@cericat]

@@CharlesB21 still safer than the Pinto... he'd better not build one of those for a test in the future the impact might suffice to destroy the entire studio.

[@italicbass2426]

The mustang actually did the same thing that older cars did in crashes before collapsable steering columns were invented

[@ballisticblocker9163]

Ironically irl, the ratings likely would’ve been flipped. Cars are made to collapse in the event of a crash so it absorbs the brunt of the energy. If the car was completely solid, most of the energy is going straight the the occupants of the car and… carnage ensues.

[@Bubben246]

Yes and no. Modern frames are built with crumple zones, since if your A pillar collapses, the driver is fucked.

[@j4n520]

[@dallasfrost1996]

[@dudewithacat52]

[@TheB3]

Everyone should be more like Ooblot. No matter how many times he fails, gets spit in half, or is BRUTALLY IMPALED, he always gets back up to try again. What a beautiful story 👌

[@memeAlexcheramie]

12:33 in the 1960s, cars had a safety feature called a “collapsible” steering column that would cushion the driver’s chest. Just keep in mind that was long before air bags and EVs

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

NGL having built everyone of these the thumbnail really grabbed me. Given how structurally fickle some of these can be when handling most of these preformed astonishingly well not only remaining intact but busting up the test wall as well. Really good test track built but for more destruction longer means more speed. Have to wonder how either the 89 Batmobile or Ecto 1 would have preformed though both probably to large in size for the track set up.

[@ziero1986]

Or the Delorean

[@blakek1043]

Would have been more enjoyable if cars would go straight instead turn to side.

[@danielhomant2832]

Yea, the 89 is practically as big as the track itself and is less of a play set, and more of a display model. It has a lot of delicate elements all over it that make it difficult to even pick up. But it does have a really interesting zero-point steering system.

[@indygamertag829]

Total side note: glad my mustang wasn’t the only one with crooked painted panels. The panels that have stripes across the entire set rarely line up, are crooked, different shades of white, etc etc. Seeing yours be the same tells me I am not alone and my set wasn’t a one off.

[@BriannaKlaasmeyer]

[@ekeleze]

FYI engines don't just explode like that, at most it would catch on fire. To get an engine to explode like you seemed to describe, you would have to somehow manage to increase the pressure in the pistons (and without heavily modifying the engine, would be impossible by normal means)

[@VroomNDoom2602]

Thank you. The tiny amount of fuel in an engine at any one time would not be able to detonate it like a bomb.

I want to see this done on a 10ft runway. And with the pull thingie actually releasing the pull mechanism entirely before hitting the ground.

[@Imaperson-ow1wr]

The Porsche 911 Targa set also has the Turbo model as its 2 in 1 function. I have that one, and I knew that the Turbo/Targa would fare pretty well. A very good design. Also, good job on the crash wall build

[@dwisut]

I agree with @dr_ned_flanders . If the car doesent have any soft body mechanics at all (which can basically make a car be able to be squished from the front), for the driver, it will be exactly like being thrown straight into a wall at the amount of speed they are going, which would definetley be serious injury or an instant death.

[@waranlego]

16:41 camera: this so epic i cant watch this

[@RJMBricks]

Awesome!

[@BrickMachines1]

Loved this video! It was so fun to watch and super entertaining! Amazing work, Riley 👍

[@suspense_comix3237]

You should try crashing cars designed by fans. Also, cars which break easily are probably the best cars, as it shows the car can absorb the impact forces. You shouldn’t make the car too fragile though, as it will break the passenger cabin as well, thus injuring and killing our passengers and driver.

[@hannaht6588]

The amount of work that went into the video alone should be commended 🎉 amazing thank you

[@commietearsdrinker]

I think the DB4 should've had 4 stars at least. Destruction was minimal and the dummy seemed intact. Must've been the reinforced chassis and armor plating.

[@Jerraldough]

Yeah it legit faired better than the mustang!!

[@leobarc3859]

Also, the engine most likely wouldn’t explode because no epothermic reaction and thus wouldn’t ignite the fuel

[@JellyGamer-pk6yu]

Yo would still be dead tho because cars are supposed to crumple to save the driver

[@AnnoyingBastsardonSteam]

That would mean that the dummy is absorbing most force and not the car, so erm actually it would get a low rating

[@Ross_gitar_bas]

It’s a DB5

[@bryanmoylan642]

I got the volkswagon beetle and volkswagon mini van when i was younger. Those were my favorite legos ive ever built

[@a.m11558]

The driver of the mustang getting impaled by the steering column is actually pretty realistic. That was a serious problem with old cars, and it led to the end of those fancy, experimental designs for cars. Ever wonder why modern cars don’t look as nice or as curvy as old ones? That’s mostly why.

[@a.m11558]

@Vegas I do too, I love the way older cars looked, but that’s the reason why modern car designs are all boring and boxy. They had to include safety features and fix those issues

[@MistahFox]

Modern cars also have collapsible steering columns so the steering wheel doesn't just crush the driver if the column gets bumped.

[@rs37_]

I like how your sister always looks like she doesn't want to help you at all, and she is like, if it absolutely has to be done... Great Video by the way, as always.

[@Tabbytoffee]

You should compare with a seatbelt and without a seatbelt (a rubber band). Also, you want the front to crumple and absorb the impact not just bounce.

[@zeemish]

The amount of effort put into this video is insane.

[@trader_skeetz5514]

you should have locked the steering for the cars that had steering, it would have caused it to accidentally move out of place, but otherwise good video

oh, we did race our technic cars against walls or each other frequently back in the days, half of the fun was finding the parts that got blown all over the room. 😅

I remember as a kid I would crash Lego cars into each other and rebuild them for fun, it has gotten to a point where I would remember where to place parts in the right area in a matter of seconds. I stopped doing it not because of the constant re-building, but because I would lose some parts to the point where I couldn't connect other parts anymore XD

I still do that sometimes, modern phones and their high FPS cameras have also made it possible to watch it back in slow motion! I general send them flipping off ramps though, I should try something like this.

[@dshiznit12a]

I had to quit cause I destroyed to many wheels lol

[@scottthewaterwarrior]

@@dshiznit12a I haven't had any issues with wheels breaking when crashing my cars, though I have starting having to remove clip based mirriors from a few cars as well as the bull bar from my police car (also held on by clips) as they broke quite easily if hit at the wrong angle. Only time I've experienced a LEGO wheel breaking (tecnically it was the axle that snapped) was when I child pushed down on the car way too hard. Maybe a large, very heavy LEGO car could break an axle if you through it out a second floor window, but beyond that IDK how you could do it. Actually if you _heald_ the vehicle while pushing it onto something, then maybe, but that would be similar to putting too much weight on it. With just pushing then letting go, the cars own mass shouldn't be enough to break a wheel when it hits something.

[@AllThingsLEGO2]

I feel like Brick Science is doing what we all really want to do: drop like 500 dollars on lego cars, and then crash them all. Keep up the good content!

[@WeedCop]

I like how the aston martin is like a real car, the force of the impact destroys the car instead of the driver

[@DylanCanady]

for future references, you should add something for the launching part so it can hold the steering so the cars doesn't turn left or right
