Engineering 111 wave test at Oregon State wave lab

Wave lab for Engineering 111. We built a "safe house" out of the limited materials provided to protect people against a tsunami. The building needed hold a ping pong ball (the people). If the pingpong ball floated away, the people died. There were four tsunami tests of varying heights: 10, 20, 30, and 65 cm. The big wave is at 3:50

Our group survived all the tests. Some groups cheated, we did not :) hehehe
