What better way to celebrate Valentine's Day than putting hearts to the test ... gooey and candy hearts that is, NOT a real human heart!
We performed a few compression tests to measure the force each type of heart could withstand before breaking or "smooshing". Take a look at the videos and give us your best guesstimate on the results. For every correct answer (or answers that are close), we'll send you a gooey Instron heart of your own (who doesn't want one?!?!).

What's the material for the gooey heart? pretty sweet properties
The gooey hearts are made from a plastic/rubber material. If you'd like to perform your own test on a gooey heart and send us your findings, email me (socialmedia@instron.com) your contact details and I can send you one in the mail!
