I really enjoyed the well researched video Fortnine put together on how grille height is the greatest predictor of pedestrian collision fatality.
I thought this was about barbeque grills…

This was surprisingly informative, I came in fully expecting just “haha big american cars are dumb and here’s the slightest smattering of data to back it up” but this went so far as to explain what the specific problem was and how to fix it. Thanks for sharing!
Fortnine episodes are usually well researched and nicely edited, also the host is a physics mayor so he likes to throw some science here and there
Do large vehicles in other countries have lower grilles? If not, is it because only Americans like the way they look or is it due to different laws?
