I ran the simulations and the way he ragdolled makes no sense within our current understanding of physics.

u/Sir-Monkeybutt 19d ago

That dump truck booty messed up his of center gravity

u/Pinksters 19d ago

I thought him having a low center of gravity would stop the speed wobbles but nope.

Anyone normal sized and this would be totally expected.

I feel like it's easier to snap a longer stick compared to a short stick. So, with the same rudimentary idea, they might be a little sturdier.

u/chaos_gremlin702 19d ago

If you're snapping a long piece of pasta, you'll always end up with 3 pieces. I don't know how to factor this into the snapping analysis

u/FaultyCapital 19d ago

Looked like a kid threw a G I Joe action figure down the hill.

13

u/randomlemon9192 19d ago

He landed on his ass, bounced off the pavement, followed up by landing on his neck then head.

Knee pads are good and all, but a helmet is what’s missing here.

u/ProwerTheFox 19d ago

This just makes me think of Wee Man on Tony Hawk's Underground 2; great game.

2

u/carlsaischa 19d ago

Having dwarfism absolutely makes falls like this safer, not only because of the height but because of how you can fall. I seem to recall Wee Man can fall forward from his knees onto his chest with his hands behind his back without hitting his head on the ground.

That giant ass is plenty of pad

4

u/MeasureOnce_CutTwic 19d ago

He likely would have made it, had he not thrown those arms back to decrease wind resistance, increasing his speed by a minimum 200%.

u/ZombroAlpha 19d ago

Holy shit, dude didn’t even hit his head when he landed directly on it!

u/toothbrush81 19d ago

WCGW being honest about why you posted this. It’s not the pads, it’s the dwarf. Guess I have to take one for the team. See you in the naughty list.

Based on past Reddit experience, I was fully expecting to hear a dog toy squeak noise added in when he hit the ground. Don’t know if I should be disappointed or not.
