Rodney District Car Explosion on Display
The Rodney District Council has blown up a car with the force of 10 grenades, placing the reassembled pieces on a weekend-long display, and recreating the explosion for a television commercial. All with the help of Saatchi & Saatchi, Flying Fish, Images & Sound, and $10,000.
Engineers worked out that two cars colliding at 125km/h had the equivalent force of 10 grenades. Explosives were packed in front of the car, and the moment after detonation was captured in the elaborate exhibit.
“All of the car objects are directly from that explosion,” says Luke Chess, creative director. “We’ve added some personal items to reflect that in a crash there would be people in the car.”
