I remember this last semester. I used a small cup of pringles i think 16oz cup..i forgot but anyways..I just stuffed that cup with jello and shoved the egg in the middle. Put the cap on the top and it worked all three drops. Shoulder drop..Midway stairs drop..and a full 2 stories drop..survived like a charm ☻
Good work! Though one weakness I spotted was if it falls on the side, it could easily damage the egg. What I did (and surprisingly worked) was build a triangular pyramid. I don't really feel like explaining it, though... :p
holy shit! i did almost exactly the same thing except for, i made the box out of duct tape, and i used rubber bands hung from the top instead of tooth picks on the floor but i still had the paper bounce pad, and to make sure it landed the right way up i attached a small parachute to the top.

did you just drop it like that? or did you add a parachute to it, because i have the same project but with a parachute.

Thank you! I'm going to do this now for my physics extra credit. We can't use a parachute or anything, which would help a lot.

@youarebeautiful1800 Not very much! I unfortunately don't have it anymore because the teacher wanted to keep it.
