Drop Does Not Damage Prefab House Demonstration

Bruce Clason, president of a Manton, Michigan home building company, rode inside a floating three bedroom prefab house strapped to a mattress. A helicopter released the house from 20 feet to a freshly mowed field, causing floor damage but not collapse. He then ordered a second drop to 60 feet with no occupant.
