Cybertruck window strength tested with 3" steel ball until breaking point limit

Amazing video. Best yet. Mind blown.

Huge respect for him to risk his truck to prove a point. This vehicle is totally strong.

I'd like to see if escape with a prybar is possible....bit claustrophobic, lol

What are you going to pry it against?

just use the weight and steel construction - to break the window was the thought...

...And? The inside is plastic. The steel is on the outside.

not to actually pry to hit it with the pointed end (opposite end from the pry)

What is interesting is the break glass device. Meaning if you are inside the vehicle, you cannot break the glass with conventional methods? Does this represent risk to occupants in an emergency vs. exterior threats like theft?

...And? You'll break the glass facing you, if you're strong enough, or maybe scratch it if you're not.

We probably will want to know which of the windows will pop out more easily once scratched, but this is why hitting it with your feet is probably the preferred method.

I always have my feet, want a plan B

 

[Jow]

all that redundancy and you don't even say anything new at the end other than "they were nice enough to give it to me". no shit. how about how much it would have cost, parts/labor. that's what's so dumb about all these new videos, nothing new. oh, and you want to be really cutting edge? how about asking service and reporting how would you really break this glass in an emergency.

Tis nothing but a flesh wound.

We tested the limits of Tesla's “Armor Glass” with EVERYTHING from ping-pong balls to MASSIVE steel balls to see if the production version is any better than the prototype revealed almost 5 years ago ? ? ? Context: In 2019 Franz threw a ~2” steel ball bearing at Tesla’s prototype Cybertruck and we couldn’t get the production Cybertruck glass to break until our fourth throw of a 3” steel ball bearing. Because of science, that could easily be as much as 3.5x the force.

Blows my mind people are shooting their brand new Cybertrucks, or smashing their own windows or trying to break it off road.

Or tearing it completely down. LOL. To each their own.

Totally agree. But also, I hear one one the Tesla engineers is calling for all of this craziness to stop.
