I didn't realize that they were that strong...
When it comes to Ryan Jenkins, the story ends with me putting him in the wall.

That's cool. Gersy barriers are cool. Exploding trucks are cool.

I don't think those are the same barriers we see on the highways - I think those are more for security purposes vs. keeping cars on the right side of the road

that's not a regular barrier. that was designed by the DoD specifically for terrorist attacks and ramming attempts. I remember seeing this a few years ago and that thing goes pretty deep into the ground.
lol, it's NOT a Jersey Barrier

Interesting... I wonder what the wall was make of b/c reinforced concrete will normally disintegrate with that force of impact.

Not necessarily, reinforced concrete can be made to withstand tremendous force... <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.koreus.com/files/200409/crash-test-avion-mur.html">http://www.koreus.com/files/200409/cras ... n-mur.html</a><!-- m -->

i think alot of it has to do with the wall being really deep into the ground. you can see it tip over, but it doesn't give that much...i bet its probably a good 4 or 5 feet into the ground.

It has a lot to do with the formation and construction of the concrete too I believe. I remember when my dad was district materials engineer for vdot he'd take me and show me the presses they used to test concrete and pavement and such. Some wouldn't take a whole lot of weight but the expensive ones would take hundreds of thousands of pounds no problem.
