Corelle used to do demonstration of their “unbreakable” dinnerware by hitting it with a hammer. I had a Corelle plate when I was a freshman in college. A friend was so impressed he used to like to throw the plate against walls like a frisbee. One night it hit just right, and grenaded.

The only way to clean it up was a vacuum. Which I made him do. I was pissed. I was out one plate, and he hadn’t even asked me. I was playing pool at the time.
