After the Parachute failed, my group padded the egg with rope and tin-foil and we throw the egg to the ground and with great exitment the egg servived the fall, but on the second throw the egg shatered, over all it was a very fun experiance and I was happy to see that there were many different Egg Drop Projects that were very interesting and inventive.
