Why doesn't somebody send this in to Mythbusters before they finish their final season?
(Yeah, I know the final season is already in the can .... really, are you taking Any of this seriously?)
That is such a great idea!!!!

I'm still hunting for pics videos of steel bikes breaking into many pieces from a wreck but to no avail. Just all CF bikes, LOL!!

Found some crazy german dude testing damage to steel, aluminum, and carbon fiber frames. Stepping on them, dropping weights on them, cutting into them, etc.

I think most people would sleep better at night if they just admit that "steel is real" and that carbon fiber explodes. It's just simple facts but does not necessarily make one better than the other for a bike frame. Well, if you disregard the fact that steel is better I mean.
