I Did It!!!

[jeremys]

i burst a can of unopened soda with my bare hands!

maybe not too impressive to a couple of you, but it'll be a cool party trick!

i failed for the first 40 seconds or so, thinking it was hard. then it really became mind over matter. i just found the energy and crushed it, without much effort on that squeeze.

this DOES have somethign to do with training; i did 1 grip workout last week, my first one, and now i achieved my goal. lol...what next..

very cooL!

 

[jeremys]

i may have cheated, if that's possible. i changed my grip so the can was lying horizontal and my hands were clenched together, knuckes pointing to the top of the can. don't know if that's what did it or not.

yeah i know i'm a dork, i'm just excited

Well done. I burst open the county water tower last week.

I remember a long time ago seeing a "Captains of Crush" article in Ironman, and in one of the pics the guy burst a can open with one hand, I always thought would be the most badass thing ever if I could do that, congrats bro..

lol


nice

 

[jeremys]

thanks

guess i'll start trying to do it with 1 hand. might take me a few (10) years. haha

I find that throwing a can against someone else's skull repeatedly works much better.

C-ditty

 

[WarriorPL]

LoL and here i was thinking you did it with one hand.

Nice job man!

 

[MidwestJ]

that's bad man!

One hand would be much better though

hahaha this whole time (all the posts that mention this feat.) i thought we were talking about a one hand crush thats why i have tried and failed. Still two hands takes a bit of effort....

anyway congratulations

 

[jeremys]

alright, i'll let you know when one-handed happens

thanks

 

[skaman607]

so, did you get it all over your shirt?

 

[Got Help?]

Nice job...But the real achivement is one-handed. Im sure u can do it, just train properly.

It has more to do with training than that.

but you didnt spill the soda did you?!?

dont waste the precious nectar! hehehehe.

j/k, thats cool man. if i didnt value my soda stash so much i would try it too. hehehe. i hear it takes something like 600lbs of pressure or thereabouts.

 

[jeremys]

It has more to do with training than that.

true

bignate, i heard it was 600 lbs pressure in quite a few places, so i'm assuming that's true.

got help, 1 handed is next, but it's not a top priority. just a fun thing

skaman, i was soaked

 

[Got Help?]

If it is 600 lbs u should b able to crush a potato in your hand EASILY. it takes a little over 300 lbs. You may even b able to do it in one hand.
