Lawd Have Mercy David!!

I hope there is a LARGE warning label that says, "Not suitable for use around in households with small children"! ;-)

Animated Tennessee Vols Smokey the Dog mascot... Will it blend?

Yep

Animated LSU Mike The Tiger... Will it blend?

No way, the tiger will eat the blender

(ducks and runs)

And me and my bad eyes going "Will It Bleed"? I wasn't sure what the link was for, but I guess if you stick a hand in that Blendtec it will surely bleed.

 

[jasonl]

I looked at the website and the demo videos. That thing likes like one killer appliance. And not too bad for $399. That's one heavy duty appliance.

 

[gansky1]

And a built-in model too! Only $825

Don't look Jon, you'll want one...

For that price it had better wine me, dine me, and -- me.

WOW

Now I want one of those Blendtecs! The electronic controls with LCD display and the ability to turn ice into snow are quite appealing...

 

[westytoploader]

Btw

That reminds me...do you remember the infomercial for the Ultimate Chopper a few years ago where they performed similar stunts, chopping concrete among one of them?

 

[hoover1060]

DAMN!

That looks like fun, I want that guy's job!

Holy COW

The one with the marbles was impressive.

I liked the one with golf balls-would love to see them try that with golf balls with the "high pressure" cores!When I mowed a station tower feild-the neighbor to the station played golf in his yard-occasional he would hit some balls into the tower feild-some had high pressure centers-when that mower tractor hit one-the pressure in the center blew the mower deck clean up off the ground-and a loud BANG as it was hit!
I have a few of those Blendtec machines--Superb blenders!!No-I haven't tried blending golf balls,marbles,rake handles ,etc in mine.and the video clip of them "chipping" a rake handle in the blender was interesting!one way to make "high fiber content cerial" and turn your rake into a hand cultivator.

The Blendtec "Willit Blend?" is just as amusing as the crusher-shredder videos on the krusher-shredder websites!

Move over Waring, there is somthing meatier

i could not belive my eyes. i love this thing. i have to have one! i wonder what else he has not tried yet?Does someone know where they build these things?

 

[tolivac]

The Blendtec factory is in Orem,Utah,USA.

 

[irishwashguy]

Orem, Ut, that is like 15 minutes from where I was living in college. I never in amillion years would have ever thought that they had that there. They are quite remarkable.

 

[tolivac]

Too bad they don't show the Blendtec "Titan" in their "Willit blend" clips.This monster has a 20A motor and a blade that is a little over 5" wide!I have one-and it blends any food item into a smoothie!The machine they show in the clips has either a 13A or 15A motor.None the less the videos do show the power of the machine.and they demenstrate the ruggedness of the all metal drive-the jar drive is MACHINED into the actual motor shaft!No clutch breakage here.The jar has a metal coupling too.Newer Vita Mix machines have metal couplers-but not all metal.The outside of the base motor coupling is plastic.they are surprizinly durable.And when the do wear-the coupling takes only 5Min to replace.

 

[hoover1060]

Impressive yes.... BUT

There's nothing pretty about the Blendtec...
It needs some Osterizer charm

 

[jasonl]

Will it blend?

BALL BEARINGS. I dare them to try that.
