Looks like they made Tom's mousetrap off of "Tom and Jerry":D
I didn't see a CRT and sledgehammer though. Did I miss it because of my i-n-s-a-n-e-l-y s-l-o-w Mac?

Check at about 2:35 in the video... ball goes through several shades, releases an operating tv, which swings into a wooden stand, and gets a sledgehammer into the screen at about 2:41. Great Video! Perhaps UL can re-write UL1418 to implosion test CRTs in a more fun manner! :thmbsp:
