"It's a miracle!" "No it's not... It's physics!" Probably the best thing I've heard in a while.
This reminds me of the Jeremy Clarkson quote: "Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary, that's what gets you.”
This reminds me of last year, when I got hit by a car. I'm in a wheelchair (and I was before the accident, just to be clear) and the driver hit my chair probably going somewhere between 15-20 MPH. I was launched out of my chair on to the ground and spent some time in the hospital. But what reminds me of this is the way my back wheels were bent at a 90-degree angle from where I was hit. That's an enormous amount of force that didn't end up going into me directly.
You don't need a parashute to go skydiving. You need a parashute to go skydiving twice.
I come to this channel for some intelligent conversations. I need to hear something smart every once in awhile.
Who is here after Diogo Jota
This is one of my pet peeves about superhero movies. You can fall from an 80 story building but as long as the hero catches you just before you hit, you'll be fine. No, if you stop abruptly, it's the same as if you hit the pavement.
Who are these people saying they wouldn't want their car to crumple to save their lives? The car is replaceable, I am not, let that thing be demolished to save my life!
"The bag beats you". Yes it does lol. Damn thing busted my lip. It also tasted nothing like marshmallows.
my friend rolled a few times on a highway while trucking and ended up surfing with a broken collaborne. He always calls it a miracle that he survived but now I call it physics.
