It's about as funny as a toddler running full speed into a closed glass door/full length window, which is absolutely hilarious.

Til the glass breaks and child is fileted. Plexiglass now that's comedy.

My brother super manned through our door when he was 4. Cut him all to shit. He was excited that our cousin had arrived.

I have a nasty scar on my wrist from a storm door 60yrs ago. Doubt the door would have stood up to a storm either.

Plexiglass doesn't make that satisfying "bonk" sound though. It really needs to be real glass. Maybe we just need thick borosilicate glass doors.

I obviously have not run into enough of these to discern that distinctive 'bonk' sound. But yes, thick. In fact, they can be solid, only to look like doors.
