Testing Top Luggage on the Early Show: Trunk Test

ElephantIf you weren’t watching CBS this morning, you missed a fantastic segment on The Early Show.

In honor of the beating that millions of bags with go through this holiday season, we put some top luggage brands to the test–a very unusual test.

Bags from Tumi, Samsonite, Delsey, American Tourister, and Victorinox were all tested in conditions we hope no bag will ever actually face.

Panya, one of the pachyderms of The Audubon Zoo in New Orleans, did her best impression of an out-of-control baggage handler.

And while the results of this test aren’t necessarily scientific, they are a whole lot of fun.

Check out more fun with luggage in Dave Carroll’s YouTube sensation “United Breaks Guitars.” And don’t miss the sequel: “Ms. Irlweig, We Don’t Need to Fight.”

We’ve also got an exclusive radio interview with Carroll that you can hear online here.
