How tall?

[firedemon101]

the two dummies represent two 5 feet tall women

[firedemon101]

lol no...i believe thats is why all the cars look so spacious

[GMminivans9968]

Wow, that's very unbelievable!

[firedemon101]

but isn't the average person at least 5' 9" - 5' 10"

[GMminivans9968]

Yeah.

[firedemon101]

Nhtsa has some cars for sale interested?

[GMminivans9968]

Which ones?

[alexkvaskov]

the cars themselves are interested?

[MitsuEclipse06]

I'm 6'5 and I have A eclipse lol

[firedemon101]

well your head is probably above the side airbags lol

[MitsuEclipse06]

You Think The Eclipse is safe? I seen the convertible and it rated GOOD, I have the coupe and I haven't seen a test for the coupe version.

[firedemon101]

It would most likely get a good rating too.. don't worry you are safe....does yours have the side airbags?

[MitsuEclipse06]

Yes I believe they do. They came standard in 06.

Don't feel short lol. I had growing pains like CRAZY!!! I had leg, chest, arm pains OMG They sucked.

BTW: I love your vids. Your crash tests have the guy talking about the aftermath of the impact. I like that better then when they just crash and they say nothing about it.

[firedemon101]

lol thanks, i am only 5'11" .....yea the narration gives you the insight of the test makes it a lil more frightening knowing what actually happen lol...

Did you check the seat to see if they have the airbags?

[MitsuEclipse06]

yeah it says SRS Airbag on the seat, and SRS on the side panels

[firedemon101]

well you have side airbags viola lol.....i find the nicest convertible is the Renault Megane..not saying anything bad about yours though

[firedemon101]

i feel short :(

[whattheheck1000]

don't.. i'm only 5'4" and get no benefit from curtain airbags. but i'm only 15

[alexkvaskov]

well, feel even shorter now. i am 6 feet tall.

barely "fit" in my civic!

[alexkvaskov]

I thought that the rear passenger dummy represented a woman? The driver is the average male?..

[GMminivans9968]

Now this is more like it! "GOOD"! You should make a comparison between the Malibu without airbags and the Malibu with airbags, firedemon101! Just sayin'!

[alexkvaskov]

what's the point?? LOL.

it is really obvious that the 'bu with side airbags will do much better. still, WAY too much glass. i thought that with SABs there is supposed to be less glass in the occupants' faces?

[GMminivans9968]

Well, it got "Good", instead of the "Poor"!

[firedemon101]

do you know how tall the dummies are i couldn't believe it when i first heard about it

[Wiishit23456withvids]
