Maybe it makes me a wuss, but I don't like seeing stuff smashed, even if it's worthless junk.

Did you ever shoot that large CRT? I may have missed the video.

Shredding doesn't seem like the best way to recycle CRT's and hard drives. I would think it would make it more difficult to reclaim the rare earths from the phosphors and magnets.

It doesn't appear that any of the CRT's did anything exciting when they broke.

I also wonder what alloy the shredder is made of. I would think it would be ferromagnetic and that the broken magnets from the hard drives would stick to it.
