Bring Newton's three laws of motion to life with this DVD that uses extraordinary slow motion HD footage filmed during car crash testing to explore how energy is distributed during the fractions of a second when cars crash. The DVD explores ideas of inertia, resultant forces, energy and momentum, but applies it in the real world context of designing air bags, crumple zones and seats to protect the passenger.

THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE MOST USEFULL VIDEO ABOUT SEATBELTS EVER!

[chiefmeraki]

this helps a lot, and the only video I can find that I can stand listening to and makes sense! sad i cant see the whole thing

[RobertStuart-mozi]

A better explanation of inertial forces is given at

[jaya-mariemyers]

To my understanding, seatbelts are used to stop the inertia of ones body force?

[Andrewa]

Would this car crash result in forces of unbalanced or balanced?

[lezziplays]

This video is very specific and derailed.
