doing and egg experiment?

Question

how would i be able to drop an egg for 1 meter, 2 meters, and 3 meters without it breaking? It cant be boiled, and the mechanism must be as big or smaller than one of the school sized (individual) milk cartons. Its a class project due tommorrow and if it doesnt work, i dont get a good grade. Help please.

Answer 1

This might be too late - I wish I'd looked yesterday. Fill the carton with cooked oatmeal. Then put the egg in and drop it. I'm pretty sure that should work.
