Texas man throws baseball at car 'tent' to prove it's hail-proof


A man threw a baseball against his balloon-covered truck to test that it would withstand a beating from a hailstorm should one hit his Texas home.

The car, unable to fit inside his garage, is instead protected from a motor-pumped balloon which according to the man: "protects the vehicle from hail as large as a bowling ball."

The video was filmed by his wife on April 18 at their home in Collin County.
