This would have been a height of 4-5 feet, since it was held in arms Maybe modern CRTs are thicker / more durable? Given my electronics teacher, it’s also entirely possible he just enjoyed dramatic stories...
Well, don’t forget that it will hit the ground with a force proportional to its weight. You probably wouldn’t want him to have dropped it on your head—it would be a rather more unpleasant experience than having a controller thrown at your head.
