Can You Really Break Glass with Your Voice?

Posted November 19th, 2007

I was watching tv tonight and saw the commercial where the guy brings some Bud Light to the opera. The singer hits a high note and the bottles break. Funny spot.

But it got me thinking: can this really be done? I’ve heard of people breaking glass with their voice since watching cartoons as a kid. But it occurred to me that I’ve never actually seen it happen. I immediately Googled “Mythbusters break glass with voice” to see if an episode had been done. Sure enough, it had.

I couldn’t get the embed link to work but if you want to watch the whole segment, which is pretty interesting, here it is.

If you’re just interested in the actual result, see below.
