Showerthought: I stood in my garage at 9pm deciding between my mom's old soup spoon and a gas station fork for the bend test

My buddy Dave bet me 5 bucks I couldn't fold a spoon clean in half, so I grabbed my mom's old soup spoon off the counter and then chickened out and picked a cheap gas station fork from my glove box instead. The fork bent easy enough but snapped right at the neck on the third push, which honestly felt like cheating since it was that thin stamped metal, and Dave still paid up but he was not impressed. Does a snap even count as a good bend, or do you all stick to handles that actually hold a fold?
