Theoretically you could throw a tennis ball hard enough at it that it would explode! ;-)
Glad you opened with that analogy and not the cats, there would have been a blender involved.
Thanks for the video! I have a couple Hawthorns on my property, and they definitely have thorns.

Lol! Well let me know if you end up trying the hawthorns. :)

Crab apple has a soothing appearance, but Hawthorns look more foreboding; like Halloween.

It is in the description! You just have to click "show more." TH-cam cuts it off, which is a bit annoying.
