OK, assuming you're being serious.... The video is basically the kind of stuff I suspect most people have been trying to tell you for some time.

If there is an impact at a specific point, CF will hold up about as well as any other type of frame. The big difference in this respect will be the ability and cost to repair it, assuming that the damage isn't covered under warranty.

E.g. if you have a low-end steel bike, a replacement frame will cost you $500 or less. A mid-range aluminum frame might run you $600 and up. A CF frame or high-end metal (steel, aluminum, titanium) can easily cost $1200 and up.
