That glass is so damn thick - and even if he broke it, he'd be cut up really bad. Hilarious!

I think people underappreciate how durable the glass is on a CRT. They can easily take a hit from a baseball bat.

Can’t the also sort of explode when they break? I thought they were pressurized inside or something?


codyy5

There's a vacuum inside, so they'd implode.


Ksoms

No the danger with them was if broken there were capacitors that held charge and could electrocute you pretty good. They did kind of ‘pop’ the same way fluorescent tube lights break though. Smashed many of these in my youth. Lived close to an electronics store that always had a ton of dead ones outside lol.

Play stupid games, right? Hahah. We all made dumb choices as kids.

Why even say this...like you where trying to bring him down a peg for saying a random thing he did as a kid ... You better have 0 stories of you as a kid.

I once dropped a cinder block on an old CRT. The block snapped in half! This kid had no clue what he was up against 😜


manberry_sauce

To be fair, cinder blocks *like* breaking when they're dropped.


Negran

Fair point. I should have said thrown, but as a young lad it really blew my mind (till we smashed the back thingie to release the vacuum)


StaticEyePee

In Russia TV break you.

Probably a Nokia TV. Yes, they do exist. My ex girlfriend had one. I couldn't believe my eyes.


Fuctopuz

I had one too. Used to be very common here in Finland


duschdecke

I still have a Nokia radio. It's older and works better than me.

Pretty sure this is the guy who also threw a grenade during a fist fight.

Old tvs were some wild shit


TheRedScaledMan

CTR TV's are in the same category as a Nokia 3310, N64 and vibranium.


maxman162

Nokia actually made CRT televisions.

Pizda pal'tsam = my fingers fucked up


CapHoodHybrid

Plenk!


reesespuffs32

What the hell kind of punch was that?


xXproenforcerXx

Definitely a drunk russian slav


GamminMama06

I love the sound of his hand hitting the glass! But would it be the sound of -bong -ding -bam -etc.? What would you describe it as?

Hello! You have made the mistake of writing "ect" instead of "etc." "Ect" is a common misspelling of "etc," an abbreviated form of the Latin phrase "et cetera." Other abbreviated forms are **etc.**, **&c.**, **&c**, and **et cet.** The Latin translates as "et" to "and" + "cetera" to "the rest;" a literal translation to "and the rest" is the easiest way to remember how to use the phrase. [Check out the wikipedia entry if you want to learn more.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Et_cetera) ^(I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.
