These pics and the video doesn't prove anything...but I figured I'd post it up for entertainment/discussion.

ok. so you drill a hole through the middle and insert 120psi or so. not too many woods wouldn't fail that.

still, neat to watch.

Yea.... That pressure needs to go somewhere.... I don't think that it would be a very "accurate" test of the wood mainly because of the large hole drilled into the side of it....

If I am not mistaken PPI and team Gates proved years ago that MDF was porous. I think their test involved picking up several sheets with a vacuume. That is why I normally put a coat of resin on the inside of a box.
