This was mostly for fun, but also a little for science. #shorts

What happens here

After the rigorous testing with the hammer and pry bar, the presenter picks up the heavily damaged PVC joint for a final manual inspection. He demonstrates that while the joint is severely deformed and cracked in places, the adhesive bond itself has not completely failed, and the pieces are still holding together, albeit weakly. He concludes that the PVC glue held up exceptionally well, remarking that 'natural forces won't be as tough as that experiment.'

Goal: Perform a thorough manual inspection of the severely tested PVC joint to evaluate the integrity of the glue bond and conclude on its overall strength and resilience.
