Blendtec’s series of “Will It Blend” videos have run everything from hockey pucks to marbles to an Olympus camera to the iPhone through its high-powered industrial blenders. On Monday, the company took on the iPad.
For Mac fanboys, the video will probably be something akin to “Saw”. Those exhausted by all of the iPad hype will find it cathartic.
What’s intriguing about the video isn’t whether it blends (spoiler: it does, and down to a surprisingly small amount of material) but that the tablet doesn’t fit in the blender itself. That requires smashing the iPad in two to make it fit.
Simply cracking it in half requires a surprising amount of force, and the screen actually stays lit before the iPad gives up the ghost, displaying a ghostly image of Jonathan Ive before expiring. (We may be exaggerating a bit on the last point.)
