forestfrolic Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Okay PurePrayer, with your freaking super-cannon defying all physical rules: Even if you do manage to launch a droplet of water (liquid or frozen) at light speed, it's density would not permit it to penetrate your skin (ESPECIALLY frozen water). Also, have you ever heard of terminal velocity? Unless you glue your head to the tip of the cannon, the droplet of water will slow down instantly as soon as it leaves the cannon. Anything high speed =/= death, especially if it has such a low density as water. Also, for the guy who posted the "final droplet to drown"... That doesn't even make sense. A droplet is considered to be 1mL is most cases, and I can't imagine how it would make any difference about allowing you to breathe or not. The fact that you set a value to the tipping point of drowning (it was 30mL i believe), is the first flaw. If you're passed out, your throat has to be filled completely with water. Since that's a heck of a lot of water, adding or removing one droplet will change absolutely nothing. The tipping point is much larger than just +/- one drop of water, is what i'm getting at. OWNED.

I said up front it was a made up value, I know it's higher than 30mL but it was an 'example'. Also, there obviously has to be a tipping point because if you do it drop at a time, eventually the person will die. Just like how an inch can be the difference between surviving a fall and death.

warren211 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I'm thinking now that there isn't anything in this world that can't kill you. It's either launched at close to light speed or having a lack/failure of it kills you (i.e. food, internal organs). [hide=]tip it would pay me $500.00 to keep my clothes ON :( :lol:But then again, you fail to realize that 101% of the people in this universe hate you. Yes, humankind's hatred against you goes beyond mathematical possibilities.That tears it. I'm starting an animal rebellion using my mind powers. Those PETA bastards will never see it coming until the porcupines are half way up their asses.[/hide]Apparently a lot of people say it.

We need something new like eg. Chair. Chair can be thrown onto you, causing concussion and being in coma/brain dead for a few days which will eventually lead to your death, or someone shoving a chair down your throat or something.. 00:00:0500:00:0400:00:0300:00:0200:00:0100:00:00 Break the Walls down!

You're still faced with the problem that water is not dense and the fact that your skin is an organ system which main function is to protect the body. Even at high speed, one droplet doesn't stand a chance versus skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And JFK died from an ice bullet. About it being less dense this is true so what if it gets into your bloodstream, melts, and the air bubbles in the drop of ice water kills you?

mmmcannibalism Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 the reason you cant launch a drop of water at near light speed is that the speed of each particle of water would pull the droplet apart. try throwing a snow ball made from loose powder and you get an example of what will happen.

Even at high speed, one droplet doesn't stand a chance versus skin.A drop of water at a speed slightly slower than light, in a vacuum is going to damage anything with less momentum. Period. There is no friction, so it's not going to disperse until it increases in speed, which its mass will infinitely approach zero parallel to the speed it reaches.
