The cars actually did very well. It shows how good car design has got. Wide dispersal of the energy and much of the glass retaining its integrity means that people in the car on the opposite side would likely have survived
I think the Honda did the best, I don't want to get too into detail but I think the basics of design really helped and absorbed the impact, however, the complexity of the interior design also kind of helped.
It really shows how good car safety has become. Rather than the car shattering and everything inside being crushed, the car managed to absorb the impact and accelerate itself to the speed of the wrecking ball relatively quickly considering the shock it was being subjected to.

Im so happy that you are calm in your excitement and not like 90% of other youtube channels where they scream at everything all the time. One of the best YT channels! Thumbs up!
exactly for the reasons you saw in the old mythbusters episodes... an exact, centered head to head collision is almost impossible to do. now, non-centered head to head collisions are easy. :)
'And this is why we can't have NICE THINGS - goddammit Gavin!' Also, why's it *always* Dan's stuff getting ruined? First his lab coat (slowly but surely), some other crap he had about 4 hours to get attached to, and now his RV! How's he gonna get home?! Wait... Toyota + Boat = Toyboata! Cross-breed that with an RV and you pretty much get an RV-Duck boat! 🚢 (Now how to add a train to that...)
Constraining our freedom of press, it's gonna go back to the good days soon... Someday... Hopes. Oh, and a good tip: Use a VPN. It beats the blocks your ISP puts on stuff.
I was about to comment something similar, I love these guys, but I either of those vehicles would change the lives of many people I know (myself included).. it was difficult to enjoy this particular video. There are so many struggling, the wanton destruction of what APPEARS to be perfectly salvageable vehicles.. was a bit over for me.
Every episode of this show, always has a little moment that shows the pure genius and friendship That is The Slo Mo Guys. 3:18 to 3:25. Is the perfect example, they have such a perfect comiedic chemistry together They do cool stuff and re watch it in slow mo. But are cheeky enough to slide in some humor. And it's hilariously subtle. " any idea how fast you were goi-😂" *😆Dan* "Looks like youve prainged it" "What happened here? Well... funny story"
For some reason this movie quote comes to mind from the great Timothy olyphant. “Are you okay? You sure, because you just went through a wall”. Props to anyone who knows the movie.
I did at first until I read a comment about the RV. And I thought "Wait a minute, I don't remember seeing a RV get destroyed". So, I went back and watched it.
9:29 There is no way the engine was still in that car. Breakers remove the engine first because if it's working then it can be reused. If not then it's impossible to crush because it's already solid. Even if it does break or crush then there's always some oil left in there which is an environmental nightmare when it leaks, so they still remove it and dismnatle it properly.
salt water parts are not good parts and if u have seen pictures they have runways full of car so probably they just have to start crushing them because the junkyards are full
I was really happy to watch not only the carnage and how it all happened in slow-motion, but it couldn't have happened to two better cars for the job. oh, and the camper. you've done the world a huge service by ridding it of these vehicles.
I always wonder how many sound effects are superimposed for production quality, and how much is actual slowed down sound from footage. Those rattling chains are mint.

Would have been more epic with older cars. Before the pesky governments decided that protecting occupants should be some kind of a priority.

The second I saw both an RV, and the grand tour blokes in the same video, I knew the caravan was going to get a proper thrashing
this is the most british comment in all of youtube
I know. I was almost disappointed. I bet a lot of people clicked away before, because they did it after the outtro
Hands up who saw that camper-van and thought, "...No *way* does that survive the video unscathed."
Mark Hashman as soon as he said they'll use it for cover I knew they would wreck it.
yep as soon as i saw the RV i knew it would be destroyed Top Gear Style

I’d still rather have a bel air
@@karanaway well I’m pretty sure an engine is not quite considered simple, so it would be quite hard to drive.
you sound idiotic🤣 if these cars had people in it you can be sure one or two would die. This video does not show any form of car safety whatsoever.
I came here to see whether after 4 years anyone noticed that the BMW has its engine in the back, not the front. 🤔
@@i.m.2391 It doesn't, you are trolling or you have some wrong information.
Knowing the old Top Gear episodes it wasn't a big surprise that the RV had to die.

I was wondering when the RV was going to eat it.
I know this wouldn't be easy but a Head on Head car collision would be epic to see in Slow Mo
yes.. yes it would
Why wouldn't it be easy? 2 pulley systems with the cars in neutral should do it, Like MythBusters used to do.
exactly for the reasons you saw in the old mythbusters episodes... an exact, centered head to head collision is almost impossible to do. now, non-centered head to head collisions are easy. :)
