hey guys I know this is like a long time after this was all done, but I wanted to say that we were able to get 3.5 meters from this. (we missed the target after that so who knows how high we could have dropped it!) Surprisingly enough, the egg never broke, but the contraption bounced off the ground higher and higher.

That's not 2.5m, 2.5m is roughly 7.5 ft. I think you mean 2.5 ft. The difference in momentum is significantly different because the velocity of the egg would increase by a factor of 9 from 7.5 ft because 7.5 ft. is triple the height of 2.5 ft. So your contraption would probably kill your egg. What if that egg was a child? I WOULD SUE YOU!!!!
Thanks.
By the way, I think the guy on the right is cute ;)

It was. Test egg was dropped from a second story balcony into the catcher, height measured accurately using the metric tape measure shown in the video. And please re-check your conversions, as 2.5 Meters is greater than 8 feet.
In the real contest, with real raw eggs dropped from increasing heights from multi-story stairwell, the height survived was over 3 meters.
Advice: Big problem is missing the target from that high! Use a long dangling string, and practice drops with plastic egg first!

Neat , how did you get it to be so springy?

Just hot glue and toothpicks. We made some tests and found we had to use fewer toothpicks to get the energy to be absorbed. With too many toothpicks, it wasn't springy enough. Thanks for posting.
