Students at Andrews University were throwing raw eggs off a building Tuesday.

No, they weren't egging the building, they were actually competing, t's the annual egg drop contest.

It consisted of 20 "two person" teams.

The goal was to design and create a vehicle for a raw egg to go into and be dropped off of the building without breaking.

The least amount of padding the better, and there were style points for how the vehicle fell through the air.

While it was a lot of fun for everyone involved, it was also a good learning experience.

The Department of Engineering and Computer Sciences put on the contest the three top teams receive prizes.
