Here's a way to drop an egg from a height so it doesn't break. Or does it? It's a design suggested in this you tube clip.

It was easy to make and the cardboard straws were sourced locally while having an egg McMuffin. Is is hoped the 'spikey outer straws' will absorb the impact on landing.

Here's some other egg drop set ups:

Panty hose bungee

Auto Rotation

Balloon bounce

Supplies

15 cardboard straws

Tape

One egg

High place

Step 1: Make a Triangule

Cut 3 straws in half.
Join 3 pieces of the cut straws around the base of an egg using tape to form a triangle using tape .

Step 2: Make a Tetrahedral Around an Egg.

Complete a tetrahedral around the egg using 3 more sections of straw. I joined them together with masking tape.

Step 3: Join Some Straws Together

Join 6 straws together to make 3 pairs.
Attach these to the base of the tetrahedral with tape.

Step 4: Join More Straws Together

Join another 6 straws together.
Attach to the previous ones to make a 'spikey tetrahedral', with the egg in the centre.
As can be seen, the egg is just sitting in the middle of a tetrahedral made out of straws. I am wondering if resting the egg on a straw may crack the egg on impact with the ground.

Step 5: Egg Drop 1

The first egg drop was from 7 metres up. The egg didn't break but one of the outer straws broken one of its joins.

Step 6: Egg Drop 2

The second egg drop was from 12 meters. The egg survived but a couple of the outer straw ends become bent on impact. A couple more had become a bit loose. Both are good indicators that the outer straws had done a good job in absorbing the energy from the impact with the concrete, leaving the egg - in its' tetrahedral safety cage unbroken.
