smash
 
So my friends are going to smash an old, unusable television, and film it. I need some creative ways to smash it. Any suggestions?

stake (hammer) through the vampire heart. it's a lovely way. i did it AGES ago-- look at the floor, there were even newspapers back in the day.

 


how-to:wear goggles and watch out for stored charges--up to 40kV even when unplugged-- yeah, it will kill you if you touch it. but the fun!

ps- also there is toxic shit inside it.

the glass is HARD! since it's a vacuum, it will implode when you finally breach it. and tiny floating shards of glass and who knows what else.

extra: i found you this link about other aspects of demolishing a tv

Why don't you smash the system and film that creatively?

We're trying to be as careful as possible. The screen is the hardest thing to crack. A cinderblock was no match for it:

fuck it up properly and put it in a microwave. Call it TV Dinners or something

i used to love microwaving stuff. Except food. And live things. Mainly just strips of tin foil to be honest.

jacket potatoes are ok, and frozen salmon steaks turn out better than you'd think

Throwing it down some stairs works to a point, and looks cool:
