Car Crash Test Smart Vs Mercedes S-Class Accident

Smart Vs Mercedes S-Class: car crash and accident test video.

[derrobuste]

I want to see the car crash.
What I see:

80% some random old guys
10% some close up from the ground
5% some yellow tape
4% some door
1% the crash

[dicbyrd]

Door still opens makes it easier to get the body's out

[alexanderz]

The smart driver’s name is test, he passed away

[akibaki]

why is smart the safest vehicle?
Because in the worst case a maximum of two people being killed...

[UrbanChaos]

Notice how they don't show you what the cars look like after the crash.

[Cassanova]

1:00 "test passed, once again"
However, the passengers did not pass. They passed away

[bobobobobobs]

It's the instant high G-force that kills you, S class has a big nose, which bends intentionally to absorb all the forces, smart car may look "ok" after the crash but having a small and stiff metal body that doesnt bend puts a lot of forces on the driver so you'll end up with a lot of internal bleedings after the crash and die

[niceboy]

There should be a rule against editing Crash test videos !!!

[fickfock]

so why dont show the entire crash? lol. passed? i doupt

[thomfisher]

Let's hear about the G-Forces involved. In at least one test (found on YouTube) of a Smart Car hitting a concrete barrier at 50mph, the doors stayed shut etc., but the G-Forces were unsurvivable by a human

[petermayer]

takeaway: S-Class absorbed crash for both cars

[DemolitionMissions]

The didn't even show the end result of the crash test for either car! All we see is the cars starting to hit, then flash camera to the wrecked cars sitting in the distance. Why hide the full length of the car crash unless it wasn't as "good" as you make it believe. Be drive a Smart.

[kushweedfaded]

Pretty interesting. We didn’t see one piece of evidence that this “amazing safety standard” smart car held up well for any occupants. Mostly just people walking around smh

[DenizDales]

This is like if Boeing shows a plane crashing and just before the crash they cut to a guy and say: “see, he survived the crash!”

[GreenBeJay]

Yeah but the slow-mo shows the smart instantly stopping whereas the S class slows a much smoother way.

This means that the crash is more violent in the Smart: a greater force is exerted on the passengers in order to slow them fast.

The longer the hood, the softer the deceleration...

[DetroitVtta]

I'll ride in the S class thanks all the same.

[miklossomogyi]

The s class was still going forward when the smart already went backwards!
Maybe the passenger cell is intact but your guts would fly out on your mouth in a smart

[andyowens]

Would like to know the impact speed and occupant g-forces experienced. At 0:50 the Smart stops moving, whilst the S class is still travelling, so Smart will have experienced greater g to stop. I have no doubt it can pass the safety tests, but I still know which I'd rather be in when the worst happens.

[cameronwilson]

I would like to see this recreated with an F350 instead of an S Class. Lol

[DecensMagazin]

This film hides the truth! Shows the action just till the Smart looses its speed. But doesn't shows the most important, after the crash, Smart flies back, the S class continues its way in original direction! S class looses cca -25, 30 km/h of its speed, Smart looses -75-80! That is the difference! Never forget, cars knows much better the fizik, than we! I=m x v
