0:00 Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen and welcome to Destruction TV

Three, two, one. Well, good afternoon ladies and gentlemen and welcome to Destruction TV. And here we have this case from Slapper. And housed inside here are some headphones. Now I did do a video yesterday explaining that I was going to destroy these. Now I do have my partner in crime, this guy here, who is rather tall and he's wearing a hard hat. Which is quite necessary for what we're about to do. We're going to start off with simple things like this. Stuff like that. Just see what happens. Oh, it fell on the floor. Just normal simple things that you would normally do with your headphones. And then of course we're going to do slightly more ridiculously silly things. Anyway, right, so it's, first of all, I don't know if you can see, a couple of, well actually, there's virtually no scuffs at all. And to prove the fact we've got headphones in there. Tony, very expensive headphones weren't they? Very expensive headphones, yeah. Yep, three quid, there you go. But, that's life isn't it? Okay, Tony now has a badminton racket, so let's see which one will break first. The badminton racket or this? That went by actually.

1:41 By the way, if you like perfect editing and good quality video, bugger

Okay, I need to try that again. There we go. Oh no, I want to go out a bit. By the way, if you like perfect editing and good quality video, bugger off. Right, here we go. I think we'll call it a no ball. Hang on. What do we need? Hmm, my go. I felt that. Right, tell you what. All that. Right, pause the camera. And we'll find something that's a little bit harder. Right, here we go. Slightly different angle and some bricks. We're going to start throwing stones at it, so let's have a look. Have a look at yours please, Tony, your stones and stuff. OK? Right. I'm going to give me a crap aim. Oh! First one! Hold on. Hold on. It's like, I mean that had that stone there. It's pretty big and there you go. What about the headphones? Slightly, well no, I think we should just wait. I think we should just open them up later. Not now. Well, it's pitted but there's no scrapes. It's not cut in any way but it does look as though

It's had a couple of rounds with Tyson. Alright, let's pause the camera and find something else. Right, all I ask now ladies and gentlemen is please watch your eyes. Go on again. Okay, okay. Right, here we go. Now what we have to bear in mind is the force of me hitting it in relation to pounds per square inch was possibly tons per square millimetre. So, let's have a look. I'm not going to show you the headphones yet. I'm going to leave that till later, but I'm going to have a look inside. And it has pierced very slightly there and a tiny bit there. But bearing in mind that we were doing this on the floor. What the hell's he got there? On a gravel floor. So of course, you know, logically it's not a flat floor. Floor, floor, floor, flat.

4:58 Let's just hear a sound

And of course then my counterpart Tony, my crazy man just like me, whacked it with a sledgehammer. So this is just the beginning. Pay attention. Right, this is going to be funny. It's quite appropriate. Fragile. What is he going to do now? It involves one of those, one of those and something you will see very shortly. Just very quickly, do not try this at home because we do these tests so you don't have to. And remember... Don't use a microwave. Hang on. Right, here we go. Tony's ready. Let's just hear a sound. Right then, put it this way. If ever you go to the dentist and hear that, I suggest you run out the bloody door as quick as you can. Off you go. Anything similar? No, it's done absolutely nothing to it. Just bounced off really. Can I see what I'm doing there? Yeah, just sort of bounced off it. Oh right, here we go. OK.

This could be quite interesting. Okay, here we go. Should we do it? Hold on, yeah, hold on, we'll pause the camera, we'll put the camera, we'll put it somewhere else, hold on, hold on. Right, here we go. Now very quickly as well, what we're going to be doing is auctioning this off on eBay, so this should be quite fun if you want bits. If it does end up in bits, you will get bits through the post. Hopefully, you never know, in one piece you'll get... That, and you never know, you may be able to still put your headphones in. Right, Tony without further ado-doos, off we go. What's it like? OK, so we have destruction, but the thing is though, the question is what are the headphones like inside? And we won't see that until after we've completely destroyed it. I mean, fair do is it's bounced back into its original shape. It's got a few holes in there.

7:12 Involves a rather dodgy van

But the next one involves a rather dodgy van and some string. Hold on. Okay. Whoa! Okay. We're on. Right, so there you go. As far as I can tell, there's no major difference except for that from, of course, the axe. So we've done the van, we've done the axe, we've played badminton with it, we've chucked stones at it, we've treated it like goodness knows what. What else can we do, Tony? What do you think? I'd kind of like something to do with fire. Let's do fire. Right guys, there may be a few outtakes where this is concerned. Now bearing in mind we are literally trying to destruct this so of course logically if you've got items like this you're not going to be as aggressive as we are but maybe it just possibly proves the point how far you can take this. Now Tony's looking rather dodgy there. Okay.

9:25 We've got some water just in case

I mean, you look a numpty without that stuff on. Sorry. Right, okay. So, this should be fun. Okay, hold on. I've always wanted to say this. Fire away. That's doing absolutely nothing. That is doing absolutely nothing. You know what we need? What? Petrol or something. Don't try this at home. What do we need? He's got petrol! Right. That is what we need. Have you got matches? I don't need matches. Oh yeah, shit, of course. Okay, so we've got some water just in case. I think I better stand back actually. Petrol has a... I think you should stand back. Yeah. Petrol's quite volatile actually and alright, I think there's a bit of petrol going there. Yep, there certainly has. Hey fever, excuse me. Put that a long way away. I want to use one of those actually. I threw a bit.

To go on a fire to make it burn a little bit more and of course a few drips followed the container, caught up with the container and set the container alight. Very silly. Are you ready? Yeah, go for it. Before it all evaporates by the way. There we go. Quite happy. Burning away. I can see the top layer coming off. Still there. Still burning. Of course being carbon based it probably will burn continually unless we put it out. What do you reckon? Yeah, that's what happens when you chuck water on something that's on fire. It makes a noise like a dog. It goes woof. Right, shall we call that a day? What do you think? Shall we have a look at the headphones inside there? Shall we shoot it? Yeah, let's get the air rifle out and shoot it. First of all, I want you to make note of that.

11:38 I'll go and get someone on

That surface, because that's the surface we're going to chuck pellets at. We'll not chuck them, we're going to stick them in an air rifle and let the air pressure move them forward in the barrel stuff like that. Right, hold on. Hold on, say that again. If you look at the inside surface there, that's fine. Yeah. That hasn't particularly burnt. The outside's gone. Yeah, the outside has, yeah. Even there, it's split. Yes. Yeah? Yeah. Fair enough. Good. Right then, have you got pellets? No. Right, I'll go and get someone on. Pause the camera. Right, here we go. I'm now going to shoot at it. Hang on. Wait, wait, wait. Don't shoot me there. What? I'm recording. Go on, what? Well, hang it up. Alright, okay, right. Pause the camera. Hold on. Wow, howdy partners. Right, here we go. There you go. That's one. Bearing in mind I'm going to shoot it five times. Two. Number three coming. Three. And it is moving around so it's probably difficult to...

Shoot it the same place. Three, four, and last one, number five. There you go. What's it like, Tone? They went straight through. Really? Yeah, I think they did actually. One, two, three, four. There's one, two, three, four definite holes. That's a possible as well. You could hear them bouncing off the neighbour's sheds. Do you? You just shot one of my bloody chickens! Right, so there you go folks. I think it's near enough completely, totally and utterly obliterated. We've chucked bricks at it, we've shot it, it's been on the back of the dodgy van, and admittedly it's not looking exactly brilliant. And we're going to put this on eBay. In fact, probably while you're watching this video, it should be on. Might have been sold, I don't know yet, maybe someone's...

Crazy enough to buy it. Now, first of all, I've got to try and open the damn thing. Now, again, I suppose... No, I don't think I will. Because it was on fire, I'm afraid... Oh dear. I'm afraid the headphones are still in there so I can't even open it to get to the headphones because the zip has melted together. So, I'm just going to leave it like that. Put it this way. I don't think... Do you think those headphones are working now? What do you reckon? Probably only on one side. Yeah. Well, no, put it this way. You know what you could use this for? I like you very much. See, see, see, I think you're mad. Homemade musical instruments. Yeah, there you go. So in words of wisdom... Practice and destroy. Nice one.
