Default Solve this.

How can you drop a raw egg on concrete and not crack it?

I don't think an egg would crack concrete!

Great answer Dave...
Better than mine, which was to drop it on wet cement...
I think you get the trophy though...

Well, first you have to crack the egg & the raw egg will not crack the concrete, but, you will crack the egg, not the concrete !

Make sure the egg is still inside the hen and neither will crack.

Soak egg in coca cola for a year then it becomes a rubber ball. Just one of a number of reason I do not drink any soda pop.
