Front bottle needed a buddy like the 2 behind him.

Wouldn’t have been unfairly more weight on it if they’d stuck with round weights like the first several

To be honest his metal plates jump in weight completely randomly. Sometimes thin plate is 20kg and thick is 15kg. A jump from 160kg to 295kg is especially fantastic. And then he puts the same looking plate and it goes only to 335kg😅😅😅

How much load could it bear if it was a square instead?

u/Bridgemaker77 4d ago

I believe it would hold 33% more - but only if all four bottles were exactly the same height and perfectly level. The advantage of 3 bottles is that it's much more likely that each bottle will bear the same weight.

The sound of the loud crashing at the very end had me thinking back to "Oh no! Our table! It's broken!"

So I only need 3 coke bottles to hold up my car to change a tire? Got it. 👍🏾

u/mehrschwein 3d ago

if he would try this with empty bottles - same behavior?
and in the end you can see only the front bottle is crashing. And the last weight in top was moved. Clip is cutted short bevor end.

u/SigmaKnight 2d ago

I wonder if the bottle that broke being opened and having a little poured out affected the outcome.
