A good IIHS crash test is a glorious thing to see. It’s a whirlwind of shattered glass, crunched metal, flailing crash test dummies, and general destruction which is over in a matter of seconds. A cacophony of broken bits arises from the relative silence of rolling tires.

Just imagine being a witness to this ridiculous display in person. Imagine being part of a crowd gathered to watch this ludicrous display. Imagine picking teams or even betting on the outcome. 20:1 odds the Canyonero comes out looking better than the 6000SUX in the Passenger-side small overlap frontal test.

Not only does an IIHS crash test offer more impacts than even the rowdiest NFL game, there’s a much lower chance of anyone developing CTE.

I hope that one day soon the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety will heed S>M>U>G’s words and open its doors to the public for all of us to consume this organized chaos. Congratulations on having the best idea I’ve heard all week, S>M>U>G. For that, you’ve earned today’s COTD victory. Hopefully you won’t let it go to your head.

This Is Every BMW That Was Sold Without Kidney Grilles
This Is Every BMW That Was Sold Without Kidney Grilles
It would be pretty unthinkable for modern-day BMW to sell a car that did not feature its trademark kidney grilles prominently on the front. Even for their electric cars that require no traditional radiator grille like the i3 and i8, BMW still managed to work those organ-that-makes-pee-shaped elements into...
