I heard a theory that a used spark plug ,the white stuff drawing a blank on the name of it, If you take a peice of it a just slightly throw it at a car safety glass it will shatter it? I dont want to test it myself so Im just curious about it. I did a search and no luck.

ive heard this but i dont think that you have to throw it at the glass. just push up against it with the tip. i did it to a water glass and it broke, but the glass is significantly thinner than auto glass

If it works like a window punch I can see it. One punch with one of those things and all the glass shatters.

I'd say because ceramic is incredibly hard, it dosn't take much energy for it too bust a tempered window..

It is true and I have tried it before. it works lol


I think it has something to do with sound waves shattering it, not the force of the porcelin hitting it. cant remeber for sure though:beer:
