I'm going to go pick up a bunch of coconuts, and coconut test anything you tell me to. Within reason, of course. Nothing too expensive, hopefully something I own, but I need ideas. I shall post pics and movies!

Cinder Blocks, both the 4"x8"x16" as well as the 8"x8"x16" varieties. Throw some common bricks as well and that should keep you busy for a while.

Sledgehammer :twisted:

If you can't do that, then how about a nice heavy crowbar?

Baseball Bat
wood and aluminium.

Rocks.

Start with small rocks and work your way up to determine the mass you will need with your strength to bust up on some undead cranium.

Maglight 4D cell variety

hmm....

if you can try to see if a pistol whip does anything against the coconut, good to know when you run out of ammo

Sorry, this is the first one here I won't do. Don't have any guns, can't get any.

Stomping, bricks, lead pipes, steak knives, 2x4, a pen, a club with nails in it, skateboard, full pop can (unopened), table leg, metal folding chair, tire iron....

The funny thing is, I'll probably come up with more before bed tonight.

Yeah, I wouldn't really suggest pistol whipping a coconut, certainly not with my pistol. But, if you could get an all-metal replica with a realistic weight to it, or maybe one of those "Blue Guns," or even a metal BB gun, it'd probably be a valid test, and cost less when it breaks.

I'd pay money to see this one

On a more serious note, would you be able to test a pool cue?? And if you happen to have an ASP check that to.

Brass knuckles, Sock stuffed with D Cell Batteries (IE a Flail), Hatchet or any other Axe, Shovel, Lawnmower blade (mmhmm...), and the ultimate weapon: your penis :twisted:

by **Rus** » Fri Oct 07, 2005 9:12 am

All BS aside, this is a great idea. I've looked for coconuts in my local grocery and can only find the "easy open" scored variety.

ASP batton is a good idea, as would be similar weapons. Also, has anyone done the lowly claw hammer?

And if you've got a kukri available... :twisted:

I thought the head had the same tinsel strength of a melon?

Skull:1400psi to crack
Coconut:1600psi to crack
If it can crack a coconut, it can crack a skull

by **Einstein** » Fri Oct 07, 2005 12:37 pm

shovel (not the sharp sides and the sharp sides)

Boots, shoes, and barefoot stomp!

tire iron, golf club, hockey stick, canes of different varieties, chairs of diiferent varieties, rolling pins, bowling ball, weights, poker, full bottles and cans, hoe,

baseball - how fast would one have to throw a baseball to meet or exceed the 1400 psi needed to break the human skull?

by **Ashnack** » Fri Oct 07, 2005 12:38 pm

here is another one.

Heel stomp (straight leg) with a combat boot.

The ending manuever of all the old Marine Corps LINE training.

by **luctus** » Fri Oct 07, 2005 1:13 pm

If I remember correctly, a heel stomp was supposed to be administered to either the temple or the bone around the ears (has the least thickness of any region), so theoretically everyone's favorite HtH end move wouldn't need 1400 psi to crack the cabeza. Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.

The health food store has full-husk ones.

Alrighty, looks like I've got enough to last me a few days. I'll try some of these, keep suggesting them, I'll do more later. Now I've just gotta go get the coconuts...

by **TheLastRifleMan** » Fri Oct 07, 2005 1:49 pm

I would love to see what my Cold Steel WarHammer and Mace would do to a coconut! I might have to buy a couple and have a friend stand by to take piccs.

bgaesop, how about a 20 oz framing hammer? The claw end!

by **Synfyre** » Fri Oct 07, 2005 2:16 pm

you mean the hammer that can drive a nail all the way on one hit? sweet

how about a dead-shot hammer?

by **TheLastRifleMan** » Fri Oct 07, 2005 2:19 pm

Synfyre, do you mean a "dead blow " hammer? These are the type that are filled with shot so the hit hard and do not bounce.

I will have to try one of those on a coconut. I own three, ranging from 1lb to 3lb.

by **bgaesop** » Fri Oct 07, 2005 3:33 pm

Yeah, I don't own one of those, so if someone else wants to get it, that'd be awesome. I'll stick to things which don't require me to buy anything new beyond the coconuts.
