That took place in a warehouse with the thermostat sat at 60 degrees and the balls had been in their long enough that they should been close to room temp.

Since we have several reports of cracking, yet others report that they have survived serious deformation, I have to wonder what the temp was in the location where they were being testing and stored in each case.
So we have jumped on them at a range of about 47 to 83 degrees idk if anyone is doing it in temperatures outside this range
