    LOL, I love this... what a great way to make recycling FUN. I've seen "gizmo's" that you can mount on a wall to crush cans before tossing in the recycle bin, but I must confess I've never owned one. It totally makes sense, though, to make the effort to crush cans before recycling.

    Now this is a good way to keep the recycling going. have a blast with trying to find different ways for crushing that can. Possibly come up with like a contest to see who can come up with wacky ways to crush a can.

    Those videos are both strange and cool. It's a really weird niche, but for some reason I am finding it really amusing to watch cans be crushed. I'd suggest doing a "group" crushing, if you catch my drift. Just a large group of people simultaneously crushing cans, maybe even with an epic slow moving camera focused on their legs and feet. This would be really cool if everyone jumped and crushed the cans at the same time. Just my thought!

    I'm with you Jimmy, I think an elephant crushing a can would be outstanding! Maybe call a zoo or circus or something.
