"NowNow" wrote in message ... In article , says... In article , says... "Loogypicker" wrote in message ... And to be precise, if you were to drop the person from that three feet onto the couch cushion, that would be the same force of impact that propelled him three feet. Horse****. And again, that person would put his hands or feet down. This guy got hit straight up the spine with nothing to break the impact force... Hey, who said "horse****"???? A force is a force. If it takes a certain force to propel X amount of weight Y amount of distance, then simple physics dictates that it would take the same force to stop that given weight from the given distance. -- WAFA the newsgroup liar free! Which do you think hurt more, the blast that sent him 3 ft up, or the landing back down on the couch? |

YOU said horse****. Do the math and get back to me. OR if you like, I'll do it. |

Of course its relevent, jackass. If both forces were equal, then each would hurt equally. |

----- Original Message ----- From: "NowNow" Are you really that friggin' stupid? Again, show me your math. The forces are equal, dip****. The "variables" would be such things as did he land exactly like he took off? If you take a known weight, such as a piece of concrete of X dimension and Y weight, put a load cell between it and the cushion and launch it to Z height. Get the reading. Now, take the same Y weight, drop it from the same Z height with the load cell on the cushion. What will the results be and why? -- WAFA the newsgroup liar free! A bullet is shot straight up into the air. Is the force the bullet leaves the barrel with the same as the force it hits the ground with? |

Why is it so hard for you to understand that the guy was vaulted with no warning so he took the full hit, why is it so hard to understand that he would put his hands and feet down before he landed? Did you watch the video, the guy was reaching for his lower back before he even hit the floor.. On paper, maybe you are right, must be an engineer thing  Technitions usually are the ones to put stuff into practice anyway Note the smiley faces... !!! |

The *total* force needed to lift the man off the couch to apex and then from apex to stationary on the couch again will be equal. The difference is in the total amount of time that force is applied. It's no different from a man climbing a 100' ladder or being shot out of a cannon to a height of 100'. Both take about the same amount of energy ( exactly the same in a vacuum), but I'd bet you'd rather climb. |
