    Just watch some airbag videos ...
    I think you'll find it inflates first , and then deflates , if you want to be all pedantic about it .

    The idea is to deflate upon impact to cushion the impact, not to bounce them off the barrier like a balloon.

    Don't be ridiculous. Who's going to save us from racism and climate change then? Not to mention that i fear for the mental sanity of some of the people around here if that happened.

    Maybe read the quoted text I was replying to. (He has changed it now)

    "Haha, l hear you. But you got a reply eh

    I have an idea, the cars should be fitted with big airbags to the sides of the cars that deflates when the car approaches a barrier at speed so that the car can survive a crash"


    What's the point of airbags deflating as you approach a barrier at speed?
