When I was going to school in England, this oriental guy went up to the top of the dormitory I was in, to the 20th floor, and went into someone's room and went right out the window. Splat.

Decoy:
Landed on pavement.

Chewing Wax:
Asians. What can we do with them?
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:36:04 pm)
Chewing Wax:
The guy who notoriously jumped from the observation deck of Buffalo City Hall and managed to grusomely impale himself on the flag pole below was Asian.

Queenie:
Enjoy thier quality electronics and sensible motor vehicles.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:37:01 pm)
Chewing Wax:
That was in the mid 80's I think.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:37:07 pm)
Decoy:
3 stories is marginally survivable; drunk, I give you an extra 30% chance.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:37:12 pm)
Chewing Wax:
But keep looking up.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:37:22 pm)
Chewing Wax:
I know I could survive a fall from three stories. I know I could.

Chewing Wax:
Windows on the World, not so sure.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:38:24 pm)
Decoy:
Depends what your landing on. You'd break your legs, but the crunching bone and collapsing muscle would absorb a lot of energy.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:39:09 pm)
Decoy:
3 Stories, I'm saying.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:39:28 pm)
bela:
Don't they say that you would die before you hit the ground from a fall as high as the top of The World Trade Center. How does that work - you have a heart attack or something.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:39:47 pm)
Queenie:
You would have to land in a really funky way to die from a three story fall, I think.

bela:
It was a lot more gruesome than the press was reporting. I heard there were bodies crashing all over the place. Limbs everywhere. All second hand information.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:40:56 pm)
Queenie:
Strange, normally the press eats up all the gruesome shit.

Queenie:
I'm gonna burn a cd now.

Only Asians may make fun of Asians!

Chewing Wax:
That's the flag pole

Decoy:
Your body can only fall through the air at 120 mph. No faster. At 33 feet per second per second, you'd reach that speed in ....
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:43:28 pm)
Chewing Wax:
That's not true about dying first at all. Think of how far ski divers free fall. You reach a comfortable terminal speed of about 120 mph.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:44:12 pm)
Chewing Wax:
See.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:44:29 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Keep looking up
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:45:01 pm)
Decoy:
7200 feet per second ...
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:45:02 pm)
Decoy:
About 6.3 seconds.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:45:48 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Then get ready to roll

It was pandemonium here that day, people running around crying. These girls were screaming "I have to call my mother! I have to call my mother! My mother called me the next day and said that her acupuncturist said I most likely wasn't there. Funny huh?
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:47:02 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Yes
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:48:12 pm)
Decoy:
Three stories, is therefore, a very slow fall, Its less than a second's fall ... at 33 feet per second per second....
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:48:15 pm)
bela:
Geeking out.
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:48:50 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Maybe the broken glass stabbed them in the throats
(Thu May 2, 2002 - 2:49:13 pm)
Decoy:
About 20 miles per hour. It'd hurt.
