No kidding, here's the before:  Nice job asshats. Bonus warehouse shot  Warehouse in Thailand. No fire suppression. Pulling in about 2.16 million watts of power. No insurance either so $3.6million in equipment gone.

Funny, the video title says squirrel, but the video itself says woodpecker (which is more plausible). Either way, think of just how many loving hours of work that poor woodpecker/squirrel put in filling that thing. Man.

In nature even the largest tree hollow would have overflowed already and instinct would have allowed it to realize it had stored enough acorns for winter.

smackfu posted:Other than no airbags to hold the people in place, it doesn't seem to do that terrible. It crumples properly before the passenger cabin. The passenger compartment does start to fail though. You can see the driver side door bend in and the dash pop off because of it. Seems survivable enough when hitting a stationary object at those speeds (assuming you're not losing your legs as the foot well collapses, can't really see what's going on there in the video), but I wouldn't want to be on the inside in a head-on collision or if it happened at highway speeds.

BTW: Indian news story on the subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cfv2yXNkyh0 the other model is even worse! The manufacturers comment that it fills all local requirements... And India has the worst road traffic safety record in the world (beat that Russia  !)

India has such an advanced traffic infrastructure they never have to worry about two cars colliding. Don't google that or look at any gifs just take my word for it.

Cardiovorax posted:Woodpeckers don't store acorns. As the name suggests they peck wood for insect larvae. Yes they do. wiki posted:Acorn woodpeckers, as their name implies, depend heavily on acorns for food. In some parts of their range (e.g., California), the woodpeckers create granaries or "acorn trees" by drilling holes in dead trees, dead branches, telephone poles, and wooden buildings. The woodpeckers then collect acorns and find a hole that is just the right size for the acorn. As acorns dry out, they are moved to smaller holes and granary maintenance requires a significant amount of the bird's time. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acorn_woodpecker

I seem to recall that this was actually a test of the new facility, not the car, and that the trunk was packed full of cement or something in order to maximize the hit on the wall. Could be mistaken/thinking of a different video, though.
