    Then I would reflect on my life for 40 seconds.:)

    It would be a bit more then 40 secs, i know because i've jumped out of a plane at 10,000 feet. Although it wouldn't be much longer then 40 secs.



    Edit; actually scratch that, you could be right, thinking about it, i don't trust my perception during an experiance like that.

    Awesome, myself only the once, so looking back on it my perception of time was probably way off.

    It is except, by the way.

    It is a twenty five second fall from 10,000 feet. velocity = gravity(9.8m/s/s)* time(25seconds) that leaves approx 250 m/s as the impact velocity.

    A meter is roughtly 3.2 feet. Approx 750 feet per second would be the final velocity at impact for that fall.

    You are shattering every bone in your body at a rate of 750ft/s. Say you point your toes down. Hitting water from that level leaves it almost as dangerous as any solid. Your toe is maybe a 1/2 inch wide. You weigh 150 lbs? You're hitting with 300 psi. You have small toes maybe? Say they are about a 1/4 in^2. You will hit with a force of 600 psi at a weight of 150lbs and with a weight of 225 you will hit with a force of 900psi.

    Physics was my favorite subject.

    Gee, what a smart ass, you know whats funny? he probably meant accept, not you're re-wording, in context of the discussion accept would make perfect sense seeing he was disagreeing with another poster.

    In context it was a direct rebut at a previous statement. Along the lines of the discussion it would read with an assumed, "That would be right except. . . ". You should spend less time time online and more time in a book.

    It is true that he could have meant "that would be right except..." but it is also entirely possible that he meant something along the lines "you should just accept..."

    You should spend less time assuming things, you really dont know, and more time having sex with women.

    I have had sex with enough women on this site alone to verify that I have no problem getting women to have intercourse with me.

    You are arguing the same point I am from the opposite direction and nobody even spoke to you from my way. Guess I am not the only one who is assuming things I do not know. Atleast I am fucking bitches in the meanwhile. You are probably jacking off alone, at home, and crying while you listen to your parents fuck like rabbits in the room next door.

    you fall about 1000 feet every 3-4 seconds at terminal velocity. givin that it takes around 8 seconds to reach terminal velocity at 120 mph. it would be around 30-35 seconds of freefall time before you hit. im not making any exact times because im not 100% sure of the exact time but im close. weight and body postion are also a factor in this. so its really not easy to determine exactly.

    haha.. well i suck at physics.. but wouldn't the point created by your toes and feet/legs help to pierce the water? and slowly distribute the impact around the legs? also if the water was choppy then the water surface wouldn't be flat.. meaning that.. well you know what i'm getting at.

    You sound very insecure.

    I wasn't suggesting that you haven't been laid or don't get laid, all though you must be a good looking guy 'cos it isn't your personality.

    Sure, you didn't speak to me, but do i care? not on Hip i don't... being it is a place for public discussion, you're being a smart ass and i called you on it, no need to get your knickers in a twist.

    And if you think i am arguing the same point on the other side, you've missed the point entirely.

    He was very obviously trying to state that his ideas were right and physical science was wrong all the while failing to make use of proper grammar. To me, that is the way to correct somebody and show your lack of general knowledge at the same time.

    The point is that you wanted to be captain save a hoe on a Saturday night and tried to call me out when you had no valid stance and were simply using hypothetical "if" scenarios to make me look like I not only was being an ass but also had no idea what I was talking about. Shame of it is, I am simply an ass who has a very good idea of what I speak of long before I open my mouth. It ensures that i can be an ass without the fear of looking out of place like the gentleman before me. Your point is that I should not assume. I see this. You attempted to prove your point by pushing further assumptive hypotheticals. That is impressive. Like trying to fight a fire with acetone.

    Saturday night? buddy this is my sunday day (know nothing, know it all), and seeing you want to be mr. macho "i sleep with lots of girls on hipforums" kinda makes you seem pretty pathetic, spending your saturday night arguing with a stranger on Hip.

    But so long as we can both agree your an ass i don't really feel any need to continue this conversation of course i will probably reply if i am still online.

    Faggot? bitch? i can see a theme developing, infact the more you say the more i feel sure you are in fact probably a virgin.

    Anyway you're a numbers man and i dont expect you to understand my point about social interaction so i am not going to bother reiterating it.
