And somewhat related, since it's the same concept, but in zero atmosphere: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5C5_dOEyAfk

That's why I said his force from when he stepped off he would feel until he entered true free fall, then he would pretty much feel weightless like he wasn't falling. That's pretty much what we have been saying all along.

The only possible way your idea of how the molecules within the body vs the entire unit would actually differ in free fall would be due to the molecules closer to the more dense bones slowing down with time as the molecules on your skin being faster in time since they aren't near a larger mass object. The only place with free fall capable of having that affect is if Felix jumped into a black hole. Or if he was near the speed of light. Monkey getting shot with an arrow. Which if say the arrow came out a velocity only enough to get it 3 ft on the floor but you removed the floor for an indefinite amount, it'd eventualy reach the monkey. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u48dk...ature=youtu.be

I've wonderered if you were suddenly able to pop into a part of the universe with 0 gravity. No dark matter/energy/gravity/etc. If you could do that would you then collapse into a black hole and possible create a big bang yourself?

Look, I was wrong about the bottled water example..... But the fact remains that you DO feel a fall, because there is a sudden cessation of the mechanical sensation of weight on the body. This causes a different sensation within the ligaments, tissues & organs inside the body. And that "feeling" is gonna happen regardless if you are jumping within a vacuum or a regular atmosphere. You don't need wind or eyesight to know you're failling. That was my whole disagreement with you guys. Last edited by Homeslice; 10-16-2012 at 07:42 PM.. |
