    other than what has been stated... I looks like the van might have been loaded to obtain such inertia

      Video was posted somewhere else, with this comment:


      BY JONNYLIEBERMAN AT 10/18/07 02:43 PM My VW-crazed buddy Scott (of the Type III fame) sent me this:
      "This video was of a test of the capabilities of a newly installed crash test facility, NOT a test of the VW T3 Doka they smashed--- note the absence of dummies and checkerboard timing marks. That orange Doka was a junker, a very badly rusted 20 year old vehicle formerly owned by the German highway department. They smashed it at 100km/h head-on into a concrete wall with 1000kg loaded in the bed to show off how powerful their new catapult system was."
      So...

            The beetle was designed in the late thirties, nobody cared about safety at that time...
