The video science wizards of VSauce3 put the bone-crunching booby traps to the test in a viral hit video this week in an actual replica house from the classic 1992 movie ‘Home Alone’ that featured a smart-ass 8 year old fending off burglars on Christmas Eve. The movie had those memorable cartoon violence moments of a paint bucket swinging into Marv’s head, a torch burning Harry’s head, and of course crowbar cracking ribs when they were really aiming for tarantula.

While we are on the topic of ‘Home Alone’ here is our tribute video that we shot at our old studio in the Merch Mart last year. Note: the hat…yes, we got the hat.
