Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine, 04/02/09
Bolliger SA et al. - Beer bottles are often used in physical disputes. If the bottles break, they may give rise to sharp trauma. However, if the bottles remain intact, they may cause blunt injuries. In order to investigate whether full or empty standard half-litre beer bottles are sturdier and if the necessary breaking energy surpasses the minimum fracture-threshold of the human skull, the authors tested the fracture properties of such beer bottles in a drop-tower.
