To The Test: ManPans Round Two
In which we drive over the same pan we first tried to destroy by blowing it up with fireworks.
Some might say we just have way too much time on our hands.
To which we reply: we’re only using the materials already at hand. First it was some leftover fireworks:
Kaboom! Watch the video on youtube.
Next, a hearse. (Why you ask?)
ManPan vs. Ruby Watch the video on youtube.
Honestly, I thought this would have meant curtains for the ManPan. As well as for the Wellness Mat, which I am now subjecting to another peculiar brand of abuse in my postage-stamp-sized kitchen.
But it didn’t. And so we are now planning our next assault on the ManPan, which by necessity will have to beat having a 5300-pound vehicle driving over the top of it.
Our choices include taking the ManPan to a firing range and/or letting a steamroller run over it. We were going to have local jazz drummer legend Quentin Baxter wail away on the pans, but while it would make for some great music, it would be like taking a step backward.
Have any ideas? Leave a comment below. Once it’s thoroughly destroyed, we’ll have to borrow a page from Will It Blend? and list the destroyed pan on eBay.
Of course, this particular BehindTheKnife.com tool test wouldn’t be complete without a giveaway, now would it? The trick is finding something that matches the theme. After running through our extensive inventory of pans, whisks, graters, and a Paula Deen Pie Board, I decided to go to the other extreme.
I picked a pan that’s too pretty to run over, or try to blow up, or destroy in any way.
Here are the specs:
