My Bench Experience

Image
  1. The park that I had chosen was my favorite park, Mahon park which is located in North Vancouver, The bench I chose had a great view of the park. I had visited the same bench as one of my classmates, the bench had a view of the soccer field and the kids playground, however, behind the bench was a ton of tall trees and a trail, if you took the trail you would later find a creek. This creek is in its own park, which is named Wagg creek park. The bench is made of wood with armrests made of metal, the wood not at fresh as it once was. 2. When on the bench you have a great look at the soccer field, I personally like this bench because I love watching soccer and usually there are games going on, behind the bench there is a kids playground, and on the right is an outdoor water play area. From the bench, you can see a trail that will bring you to another part of the park. The park is called Wagg creek park, when walking down the trail you are surrounded with beautiful nature, the w

Cybertruck's unbreakable windows broken?

Image
Tesla's Cybertruck unvailing was full of surprises, but the most shocking moment was when the lead designer Franz von Holzhausen threw a metal ball onto the car's "Unbreakable glass" windows onstage as they shatter. It wasn’t the result that CEO of the company Elon Musk expected, Musk could be heard murmuring to himself saying “Oh my f***ing god” under his  breath before  being forced to completely stop his presentation of the car, however , Elon Musk said he knew what had gone wrong, and explained what happened on his Twitter. Right before the metal ball test had been presented, von Holzhausen hit the door with a sledgehammer on the stage to prove that it was durable and it was fine, but Elon Musk  says  that the impact of the sledgehammer on the door had “cracked base of the glass,” which shows why the windows were subsequently weaker and smashed when hit by the ball.  This seems realistic since Elon Musk had shared a  slow-motion video  of von Holzhausen testing t
