Is it possible to punch your way out of a coffin like Uma Thuman did in "Kill Bill: Vol. 2"?

  • some problems with this experiment.

    The coffin in the movie was some half-assed shitty wood box that isnt as tough as a real coffin.

    We are not sure if they did put 6 feet of dirt on the coffin in the movie, could of been 3, could of been 4, and it was extremely loose soil, not compressed and mounded by a dump truck

    Robofist is a gelatin! A real fist is essentially pure bone which is far more impactful!

    And finally, The Bride was really pissed off! Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

  • Chuck Norris would escape downwards

  • Did they draw April Oneal?

  • The problem here is they got Jon Fitch as the coffin puncher. Now, I understand if they were testing a myth on whether or not one can lay on top of a coffin for 15 minutes, for this myth however, they should have gotten JDS.

  • @shitttty also , the fist punched on the wood , not trough , it was calibrated to puch as far as it did , thats why id didnt go trough

  • @shitttty you can't break ribs with a one inch punch

  • @saxopwned right... he would punch them before they even saw him while looking for him

  • bruce lee can punch with only 1 inch(but that's his trademark.)

    no 1 can compare pound for pound strength with him.

  • still t. ahhhhh

    

  • 3:56

  • @shitttty Still couldn't be done because 4-5 feet of loose soil is going to way a lot ! !

  • The one interesting fact I am thinking is that they test the robot fist punching in the same spot. The coffin did crack just after a few punches. A real person would understand to punch enough in one spot to make a crack and then start punching in another spot and finally knees, I think knees would be effective in a situation like this.
