1. An anthropomorphic test device comprising:
a pelvis member having a foam core, the pelvis member including:
an abdomen region defining a first cavity,
a pair of thigh regions extending from the abdomen region, and
a buttock region positioned below the abdomen region and rearward of the pair of thigh regions, the buttock region defining a buttock cavity separate from the first cavity with the buttock region also defining at least one vent port,
a structural member positioned within the first cavity; and
wherein the buttock cavity compresses from an open condition to a collapsed condition when the anthropomorphic test device is placed onto a surface.
