COD physics professor gets nailed in class

College of DuPage physics professor David Fazzini lies on a bed of nails as physics professor Tom Carter smashes a cinder block on top of him. The demonstration in Fazzini's Physics 1100 class was part of a lecture on the principles of energy. Click here for a video and click here for more photos.

"Part of the challenge of this class is that being for non-majors, a lot of student walk in with either a fear or a dislike of physics," Fazzini said. "My job is to get them to leave the class successfully and not hating the subject."
