How could a raw egg not crack when hurled from the balcony on the police vehicle?

Hurling an egg never hurt one. It is when it arrives at destination that the damage happens.

Dissolve the eggshell in vinegar first. It'll leave you with a membrane-enclosed egg that cannot crack; although it may rupture. Or throw it in a body of water. The real question is: where are you going to find a balcony on a police vehicle?
