EGGS & BIOCONSTRUCTION!

My house is burning and the last possession I own is an egg... The only way to save the egg is by throwing it out the window; but how can I throw the egg without breaking it?

The fire is getting closer, we need to act quickly! What options do we have to save the egg?  - Egg in a box: We can put the egg in a box full of newspaper  - Egg parachute:  we can use a parachute to slow down the fall  - Cushioning the egg: using soft materials as a cushion so the egg won't break.  - Eggshell: Building protection around the egg like a shell   

It's better to have a backup plan than none... We had two ideas: Our first idea was to put protection around the egg. We drowned the egg in a bag of chickpeas and surrounded it with balls of newspaper. We also built 8 supports around the box because we didn't want the box breaking. Our other experiment consisted of burying the egg in a bag of flour and surrounding it with water; this way the impact would distribute within the water.   

All the materials we used, we had around home; but if we were to put a price on them this would be our budget: 

Keep in mind, you have to use eco-friendly materials. You can also use plàstic; only if it's reused or recycled. To save the egg we did two experiments, so we used various materials:  - chickpeas: decomposable - newspaper: decomposable - 1 plastic box: recycled - flour: reused - 2 plastic bags: reused  - water

Our first experiment didn't go as expected, but our second one worked pretty well.  The water worked as a cushion and even tough the bag broke the egg was hardly touched... We examinated the results and we had a tiny crack that could have been prevented if we had put more water in the bag
