Yeshiva Machane Yisrael is a yeshiva for Baalei Teshuva in the Beit Yisrael section of Jerusalem near the Mir yeshiva. The Rosh Yeshiva is opposed to the use of computers, and therefore even the yeshiva office uses none. Here we can see one of the many computer smashing ceremonies held at the yeshiva, with a brief introduction by the Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Feinhandler who explained how in this particular instance the computer was used for purposes of earning a livelihood by the owner until he decided to make the move and dispose of his laptop. VIN News interviewed the Rosh Yeshiva and he explained the ideas behind his actions.
This is an exercise carried out by trained professionals, please don't try this at home, but if you do please wear safety goggles!
