1:59Now PlayingAutomotive crash test dummies are born in Ohio, brought to “life” near Detroit, and then sent around the world to make cars safer.
They’re not just mannequins — they’re engineered to move, bend, and feel force like real human bodies. Packed with sensors, these dummies help researchers understand what happens to us in a crash, again and again, so safety ratings can save real lives.
