Smash My PS3!


They've done it for the Xbox 360, the iPod, and now the Playstation 3.

You can also check out the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CTy7Nx0oPI&eurl=

I just hope they do Smash My Wii now

edit: Success! http://www.smashmywii.com/

You just know after that guy got done ranting at the end of the vid, he went home and listed his unit on ebay too. I'm just jealous of all the people that donated to get that done. I wish I had so much money I could afford to waste it on something like that. The vid did bring a bit of a smile to my face though, and I hope they get some more audience reaction in another video, I can only imagine the looks on those people's faces throughout the crowd.

It does sound slightly sadomasochistic, doesn't it?

These guys are great, I love the fact that they do it in front of people. I'm surprised no one ran out of line to fight them or something.

Least there was more then 4 people looking this time. The 360 one was good, but a dud.

They need a bigger hammer..

They should set consoles on fire... it would be more dramatic...

A GameCube can keep burning for about 15min and produces a huge amount of black smoke, with some lighter fluid to start it up.


I'm loveing how p'd-off some of those people looked.

Man the PS3 is built like a tank. I mean took quiet a bit to even do mild damage to it let alone smash the sucker well.

Amazed people pay to do this but eh oh well. People paid him to buy it and smash it.

I really wonder what they'll do for the Wii. But well find out in a few days

I was also surprised at how well it held up. Then again, we do have a guy smashing it who plays video games all day...

By design(after looking at all of the parts), you can crush the hardware easily, it does not fall apart into pieces easily though so it just makes it look much stronger... and the fact that it's a very heavy console.
The PCB was snapped on the second hit from the looks of it, and likely completely inoperable when he first dropped it on the concrete.


I demand a "Burn my *console name* to hell"!

Unless you change it to SmashMyWii-ner then that'll be sick and I ain't even going to go down that road as I'll crash the car first before I do.

I hope you're not serious.



Anybody have any idea how much money they make off these videos? I bet they could make some decent change, if they're not already, enough to pay for that PS3 many times over.

I agree. There is no point to doing this. Maybe someone waited in line who genuinely wanted a PS3/360/Wii and because of them buying one, and pretty much wasting it, he's not gona get one.
I honestly dont see the point, they don't even get any good reactions or the expressions of the people watching. Stupid crap.

Different people have different ideas of entertainment and humor. Whatever get over it. I would have ran it over with a semi truck and see how much of a tank it is.
