      Unfortunately, I also own a glass office/gaming desk... So maybe not so lucky after all...

    I had a 1" thick beautiful glass table for over 10 years and moved several times across long distance (900 miles and 1700 miles) and glass was fine. One morning while having breakfast, I heard a loud noise. It was my beautiful glass table top what exploded without warning. What a mess it made 🤣 and ruined my day. It was unbelievable.

      That's terrible! Did the glass launch into any of your other furniture and cause damage or are the edges and force not enough to cause this? I have glass furniture and I'm scared of this happening or causing injury to myself and others or damage to other furniture.

  • @minedude33

    I think it's actually caused by pressure building up within the glass along with the cracks inside the glass

    Glass furniture is a terrible idea. Nobody with the ability to critically think would buy it. Shower doors are different. Not everyone has the choice to have them or not.

      Could it have been a certain frequency that caused it to explode. Just wondering.

    • @handlesarecringe957
      @handlesarecringe957 Před rokem

      Improperly tempered glass has not only imperfections, but internal stress. Some relatively sudden change in temperature can cause the glass to fail and all that stored energy will burst out. NileRed has a great video on this where he has to shatter his glassware because it wasn't cooled properly: czcams.com/video/tGqVMbAQhBs/video.html
