Re: Disk Shattered

Did anyone see the episode of mythbusters where they tried in vain to spin a cd to it's max rotational speed and shatter it??

The only reason why they used a dremel tool is that their cd-rom drive was not spinning up to the 52x speed. I think they ended up spinning the dremel tool up to an equivalend of 52x speed.

You should e-mail the mythbusters about it. They did a segment about CDs shattering in the drive. They concluded that it couldn't happen. I bet they would like to hear about it, and see pictures if you can take any.

No they didn't conclude it won't happen. They said it does happen but it's highly unlikely.
