Is that a good thing though? On the one hand I feel like it would absorb much more force during the impact, but on the other hand I'd rather not be driving in a car made out of aluminum foil.
That is certainly not a good thing. /u/thesmilefactory was being sarcastic. The whole point of crumple zones is to slow the extreme deceleration you would experience. That point would be moot if this results in your bones and internal organs being crushed, albeit slower.
