We know golf balls are tough, but can they survive an 8-ton steamroller?
Two men put the question to the test.
Meet Paul and Steve, a team that flattens various objects with their steamroller, Thumper. They’ve crushed everything from watermelons and pancakes to cans of coke and tennis balls.
Their most recent challenge? Golf balls.
The slow-motion video shows Dunlop LoCo golf balls compressing under the weight of the giant roller without breaking.
So what causes this? You may have heard of golf ball compression but never knew how it could affect your game.
