Now this is cool. During the launch day of the Sony PlayStation 3 in the United States last week(17 November), some guys from smashmyps3.com bought one set of the console, opened it and broke it in front of the 100s fanboys queing in front of the stoor using a sledgehammer. The other guys bought cameras along them and recorded it. Not to mention that they had also smashed a Wii, iPods, and an Xbox 360 as a part of their project since last year.
According to the website owner, they did it just for entertainment purpose and nothing more. They collected the money to buy the console from danations which I think mostly came from the console’s haters. Which video did you like the most? 
for me, the smash wii video is the funniest coz they dressed up as Mario and Luigi. The terrible part came when the console got demolished. Check out these sites below for more info about their project:
