Yes it''s possible but I mentioned in my post that my presentation was a shortcut. You must do the same procedure with the right hand glass with a starting point off-scene at "stage right".

It's up to you how you want it.  Sam did a slow-mo version that requires a lot of frames. You can do tweening if you want but it tends to slow down the animation if you have more than 3 frames. Do you want it like captured on a hi-speed camera and viewed at a slower speed? This is where tweening may help with the effect but with mush lesser frames to start with compared to the number of frames Sam used.

Mine was sort of like normal speed as if thrown at each other but with a different ending... lol.   The glass run took 2 frames.

Paul's rendition is complete from start to fragment scatter. Only that his version is like slowed down stop motion. 

But the essence of how it's done can be found in the animation frames if you download his gif..  In fact the gist of what we all did is contained in the animations we've uploaded. Download, open in CS and study what we did in the timeline and corresponding layers..... 

What you need to do is all up there........ you have to experiment.
