If your squat was strong enough could you do pic related?
If your squat was strong enough could you do pic related?
Yes. And it'd very substantially blunt the impact of the fall with proper timing. Issue is even falling a few feet on to cement can fuck you up anyway
If you could jump hard enough to cancel out the speed at which you were falling you would break your legs
like in my animes?
This
We've had this thread several times and the physics of it have been explained ad nauseam. Yes you could survive if you cans squat 4+ plates. In fact almost nothing can kill you.
Only 4 plates and up though
Can someone explain why this wouldn't work?
You’d be pushing the chair down more than you’d be pushing yourself up. The amount of force you’d need to change your velocity in any helpful way is way too much for a human.

>Not heard of Newtons 3rd Law
>squatting 4pl8 makes you invincible
hell yeah
wrong dumbass
It would be extremely painful.
You are only changing the chair's speed relative to you, not your speed relative to the ground.
This basically. You have to account for your net acceleration.
Any deceleration relative to the ground would be negligible.
What if this was underwater?
How am i wrong
you have big quads
The chair would need to generate an equal amout of upward force to the downward force your legs create, and thats completely impossible with the chairs low mass
But technically if you would have jumped of an object with much greater mass I think it would have been sort of possible, the object would have to be gigantic though.
Lmfao this is categorically insane to suggest.
>Not having a uranium chair just for this purpose
If you have explosive hip drive then maybe.
Actually, no.
Assuming you're falling from a huge ass building and you manage to reach your terminal velocity, you'd probably be falling at something like 180km/h, which is truly isn't that much desu
A powerlifter would definitely survive.
Even if the chair had infinite mass, meaning your jump moves you the same vertical distance as on the ground relative to the ground, you'd still need to jump as fast as you're falling. Not gonna happen
Was Starting Strength part of your plan?
Of course.
If the object had infinite mass it would absolutely be possible. How do you think you're able to jump on earth with us falling through space at a ridiculous speed.
You'd have to accelerate the chair to mach 3 in order to produce enough force to stop you.
Theoretically, but you'd need god tier hip drive, I doubt even rip could pull it off in his prime.
A cat could do it easy but cats have superhuman hip drive.
Well congratulations, you got yourself a strength base. What's the next step of your master routine?
>Terminal velocity of a human: 53 m/s (according to google)
>Weight of human: Lets say 90kg / 200lbs
>Weight of chair: Lets say 5kg / 11lbs
>To cancel out 90kg moving at 53 m/s and stop you dead you'd need to accelerate the chair to 954 m/s or 2134 mph with your legs
That would crush your bones. You're falling at terminal velocity. You'd have to jump with such an acceleration that you are no longer moving with respect to gravity direction. That's going from hundreds of km/h to 0 instantaneously. That's a lot of g-force dawg. Your legs would take the brunt of that and shatter, even if your muscles could produce that force.
Even if it were possible it would only greatly execlerate the chair, you would have no effect on the fact that you are still falling.
Learn physics pls
Exactly. Even tho its accelerate.
No theoretically you wouldn't even need the chair.
If you squatted at thousands of miles an hour, you could create explosive vacuums in space by pushing the air molecules away from you.
That would generate enough thrust to cancel out your velocity. It would actually be quite efficient.
You'd only need to do short bursts of rapid squats to keep yourself buoyant, like how an eagle only needs to flap its wings occasionally to fly.
If you were a manlet though it would be more efficient to squat continuously like a hummingbird.
Calisthenics Chads can just climb down the building
>not doing mach 3 explosive squats
I used to genuinely believe that if people got onto the wing of an airplane and jumped up seconds before it crashed they’d be okay.
Crashing this gym... With no survivors!
You woulkd just kick the chair eaway from you
Have we started the gains?
You’re traveling at the same speed as the chair. If you jump while on a subway you don’t fly backwards.
Yes. The lean body weight rises.
If your legs go faster than sound speed you will create shockwave, this will behave different than normal air, more stiff and better to propell yourself from.
I survived an elevator crash like this. Fell 43 floors. Luckily the door was stuck open so I could count the number of doors we fell past. As soon as I saw the top of floor 1 I jumped as hard as I good. Slammed into the ceiling but was basically unharmed. Other three people were dead tho
Yeah well, not if the object has infinite mass as he said. Gravity would work way different, think bigger, like the solar system, youre still able to jump on earth even though the earth is orbiting the sun, which again has greater mass than the earth.
An ape would survive. A human wouldn’t.
What if instead of using a chair, you landed on your tippy toes and did a controlled squat to slow your force. Like really strong squat.
That's the best reaction pic I've ever seen thank you
The only way it would work is if the chair is extremely heavy. Then you can explode off of it hard enough to actually push yourself up.
Terminal velocity of a human is 120 mph. If you fall and try to land on the side of your body with your arms above your head, you could survive. Youd have 5 points of impact, spreading the force out, and ppl have survived this way. You will break almost all of your bones tho.
post news article
The main problem here is that you can't really jump from a falling chair. As soon as you push down it moves away. Your jump would need to be instanteneous and the chair quite heavy.
But let's assume for a moment you can "instantly" (t~0.01s) jump from the chair, and it's a normal chair.
Let's have the following variables:
velocity = negative downwards
vc = chair velocity
vh = human velocity
mc = chair mass
mh = human mass
Let's assume you weight 80kgs, the chair and weights 10kg.
In the picture the building is 6 stories high, so let's assume 18 meters, and you want to jump off when there's only 1 meter left.
1 = 0*t + 18 - 1/2*9.81*t^2
t = 1.86 seconds
vc = vh = -18 m/s
Let's assume that after jumping you want you velocity to be about 0m/s so you survive the remaining 1 meter easily assuming the chair doesn't explode and you get hit by shrapenel (very likely given the next numbers).
Since momentum is mantained in the system vc(mc+mh) = -1620 = vh*0+vc*mc -> vc = -162m/s
To achieve this in 0.01s
a = deltaV/t = -144/0.01 = 14400 m/s^2
F = m*a = 10*14400 = 144000 kg*m/s2 = 144000 Newton
So basically for a normal human, a normal chair, and a lenient estimate of the chair not moving away in 0.01seconds, you need to be able to squat 14000 kg=14 tonnes in 0.01 seconds
