Slow Motion Car Crash Lasts a Month

Watch a disaster unfold. You'll need about a month.

Well, if not for time-lapse videos, you would. Jonathan Schipper's art exhibit at the AV Festival in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, showed a car crashing into a wall. Every hour, the car was moved forward 7 millimeters. Over the course of a month, visitors saw it impact and crumple against the wall. The embedded videos above show the first two weeks.

Surprisingly the wall didn't seem to be reinforced and had started to be impacted by the end. The shop next door was empty and I couldn't make out any alterations either side. I would have been very intrigued to see the risk assessment for this.
