The second derivative of pumpkin = 9.81m/s^2!

Really, who doesn't want to see a pumpkin smash a van?

The U of A chapter held its 3rd annual pumpkin drop today. Here are a few media hits we have found so far:

A big thank you to Max and everyone else at the chapter who worked really hard to put on this event!
