Why I Decided to Test This
So last month at the pub, my mate Dave kept ranting about magnum condoms splitting during his dates. He swore they’re faulty garbage. That got me thinking – is it really about the condom quality or just people using wrong sizes? Grabbed my phone right then and added magnums to my Amazon cart.

My Testing Method
Ordered three different sizes like a complete weirdo: standard Trojans, magnums, and magnum XLs. Wanted to recreate Dave’s problem properly.
- Test 1: Standard size with proper fit – obviously no splits when using lube
- Test 2: Magnum on normal condom-sized object (using a Cucumber as substitute obviously lol)
- Test 3: Magnum XL on thicker object (water bottle this time)
The Messy Results
First test showed zero breaks with proper sizing. But holy crap – magnums stretched on standard cucumber like cheap cling wrap! Saw tiny tears forming at the base immediately. When tried magnum XL on water bottle though? Fit smooth with zero damage.
Cleaning lube off vegetables afterward felt stupid. But proved Dave was dead wrong. Magnums don’t randomly break – they fail when guys buy big sizes for ego instead of fit. Watched XL condoms pass water leak test perfectly while standard magnums on wrong size split like wet paper bags.
What Actually Happens
Turns out condoms rip only when stretched too thin or rolled incorrectly. Saw magnums tear every time when:
1. User tries pulling down instead of rolling

2. Size gets stretched beyond capacity
3. Air bubbles get trapped inside
My Takeaway After Testing
Condom size matters more than brand packaging. Stop choosing magnums for macho points. Measure girth first – if standard condoms feel like stranglehold, then upgrade size. But never grab magnums just cause box looks cool. That’s how Dave ended up with ripped rubber and emergency pharmacy runs.
Now always pack properly sized condoms instead of whatever feels fancy. And Dave owes me $20 for wasting my veggies.
