I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say this guy was not a physics major.

[–]monkyyy0 28 points29 points  (36 children)

I would go futher and say he didn't get a proper science education at all

While I have no idea what math to do to try to guess the angle my feet should hit the ground, I know enough that I don't want 90 degrees off the ground and keeping my feet apart(as apposed to 1 hitting first at an angle that would spin me) would help

[–]mr_lemonpie 64 points65 points  (17 children)

Have you never seen a western? You have to roll when you jump off of a train you're not gonna land that shit.

[–]I_Dionysus 27 points28 points  (15 children)

Yes, and please be safe-- roll with the train motion and not against.

    No, but rolling on impact can disperse a helluva lot of energy.

    Many years ago, I took about 2 ninjutsu classes before I went to juvie and they both focused on jumping off scarily high heights and rolling on impact to not break bones.

    I feel like the procedure would be similar for shedding off speed too.

      Maybe, but at your joints you can have your bones from either side collapse into one another. This is called impaction and it is the worse types of fractures, crushing the ends into many tiny fragments possibly splintering along the length.

      Yeah, that was about 7 - 10 mph when he landed, he should have run *with *the wagon at the least.

      [–]JediDwag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Think of it like you're running full speed, like as fast as you can, and you jump down a big flight of stairs. Can you land it? Maybe. Is it much easier to roll out of it. Yes.

      [–]frothface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      Depends entirely on whether not you can at least momentarily run that fast. Hard to judge how fast it's actually going, but I'd lean towards yes.

      [–]Haribouk 4 points5 points  (2 children)

      Newton's first law an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. You have to match the speed of the train in order not to fal

      [–]ScienceMarc 8 points9 points  (10 children)

      If you don't want to fall you need to match the speed and direction of the ground relative to the train.

        Just imagine when we have wired reflexes and AI attached to our brains to assist with these calculations in a few nanoseconds as we step from the moving train, dynamically adjusting as new calculations and movement angles and environmental factor data is taken in during the subsequent fall that is turned into a roll, tuck, and cartwheel movement action to complete the reduction of lateral motion.

        You could also potentially land with your center of gravity positioned far enough behind your contact with the ground as the forward momentum will carry you into an upright position

        Impaction of knee injury, direct collision of bones from too much downward force crushes bone ends. This is the result of fixing the worse kind of fracture.

          [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

          Actually, running wouldn't work unless the speed is already really slow, because running requires you to put at least one foot on the ground and push your body weight up. Which you can't do because of the momentum. So before you can do the running motion and switch feet, you'd most likely be kissing the floor.

          This is why you roll.

                    [–]PoliticalDissidents 12 points13 points  (28 children)

                    Bitcoin Cash is something that's coming out of thin air. It'll give everyone who has Bitcoin the equivalent amount of Bitcoin Cash as the time that it forks.

                    So that it come out of thin air makes it of little value. Furthermore it's a UAHF. If it was a MAHF then that would be different story because then it'd only occur with the backing if miners. But with a UAHF it forks regardless. Meaning just about no one will mine it so it won't be secure ever if people don't start mining it (they won't if it's less profitable than Bitcoin) then it'll eventually die off and/or be subject to attack. So people will sell these coins that come out of thin air and few would want to buy something that came out of no where with guarantee of being secure. The result is vast supply little demand, lots of sales and few buys. The price of BCC will tank spectacularly.

                    If one day BCC gains enough miners who knows if it could take off. But in the short term it's going nowhere.

                    [–]pitchbend 28 points29 points  (14 children)

                    Nah not really, you are letting your political stance get in the way of reality.

                    The truth is that currently people are throwing money to shitcoins that are just fucking brochures, Tezos raised more than 200 millions and it's not even vaporware. BCC is being created out of thin air as every crypto token once was, that's irrelevant. What matters is the exposure and its potential, BCC has had a metric ton of exposure, low supply, an air drop, a significant community of people supporting and shilling it many of which do so because they really believe in it and hate Core, support from 3 of the major exchanges... The setup is way more enticing than many ICOs that have raised billions of dollars.

                    I wish it didn't exist but it does. Don't let your feelings get in the way of your analysis.

                    [–]jcoinner 7 points8 points  (4 children)

                    Here's my projection: BCC forks and goes live, most users start selling, Jihan/Ver start buying like crazy to support the price and make it look valuable. Maybe that works for a while but how much of their BTC do they want to convert to BCC? At some point they can't support it more and the price plunges. Maybe they get out then or not. But as the price drops it doesn't matter how many miners mine it they aren't going to want to mine less valuable tokens than BTC. How this all affects BTC I don't know but since everyone is getting BCC out of nowhere the sell pressure is much greater than on BTC (unless Jihan/Ver really go ape shit and dump BTC in huge volumes). Maybe BTC has few miners for some period and slow blocks but that's not as much a problem as worthless coins. Worthless coins will cause miners to question why they are mining them and shift hash back to BTC. So bottom line? I expect massive volatility in prices until the market figures out where it stands. If BCC trends towards any value expect BTC to fall. The faster BCC falls the more stable BTC will be.

                    [–]pitchbend 8 points9 points  (3 children)

                    Your whole projection is based on a false spiteful premise. That only Roger or Jihan will buy it, that statement is a speculation that doesn't fit the reality we live in. People are throwing money into altcoins like there's no tomorrow, that's our reality. This shitcoin has way more going on for it and it'll be listed on more exchanges and get more publicity than any ICOs out there that raised hundreds of millions out of thin air.

                    [–]read-red-reddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

                    My thoughts exactly. I'm thinking, I'll just hold both - in the small chance BCC keeps/gains value, I win. If it dies, it doesn't feel like I have lost anything.

                          [–]BigBlockIfTrue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

                          Simply install a Bitcoin Cash wallet and import your Bitcoin private keys. After the fork on August 1st you can transact Bitcoin Cash separately from your Bitcoin with it. Check the Bitcoin Cash website for basic information.

                          [–]PoliticalDissidents 0 points1 point  (3 children)

                          Put your Bitcoin in your own wallet before the fork. Then hold them there. After the fork transfer your BTC to a new wallet. Import the previous wallet that you had before the fork into a BCC wallet then you'll have the BCC there as you only transfered out the BTC not the BCC.

                          I'd suggest using Bitcoin Core as BitcoinABC has a fork of this already. Their Electrum fork isn't ready yet.

                          [–]snowcrash395 1 point2 points  (2 children)

                          Less competition for BCC blocks would make it easier to mine than BTC and, possibly, more profitable than you think. So I wouldn't count out the idea that there could be a significant interest in mining BCC.

                          [–]jcoinner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

                          I expect a lot of miners to switch to BCC initially and it to have a higher hash rate than BTC. But hash rate does not determine value as long as some miners are on both sides. The main forcing factor here is that people have BTC and they are getting "free" BCC so the sell pressure is primarily on BCC side. It has to be offset by massive buying from the Jihan/Ver camp to even hope of keeping some value.

                          The fact that BTC is still keeping fairly stable implies the market does not expect it to drop much in a few days.

                          Won't they both keep the same difficulty as they are now, so both chains' blocks would be equally hard?

                          Withdraw your bitcoins from Coinbase before the fork if you want to get access to your Bitcoin Cash. Also see the Bitcoin Cash website for basic information.

                          If you hold it in Coinbase you won't. They've said they won't reward users with BCC. So they'll just keep them for themselves. If you want BCC you'll need to withdraw your Bitcoin to a wallet you control and then after the fork you'll own both.

                                    You guys seem very confident in what will happen on August 1st. That makes me kind of weary.

                                    The word you're looking for is wary, not weary.

                                    • wary = watchful; being on one's guard against danger.

                                    • weary = physically or mentally exhausted by hard work, exertion, strain, etc.; fatigued; tired:

                                    These words seem to be mixed up EVERY time on Reddit! Don't abuse the English language!

                                    TBH, weary could have worked if you were tired of hearing about this topic. :) Also, this is a mistake made by zillions of people with English as their native tongue, so ignore the pedantry-- you don't deserve it.

                                      rollerblades. Skateboard. One of the 27 pieces of wheeled luggage this person has somehow gotten on the train.

                                      maybe if you were really good at heelys, or stole a kid's scooter.

                                      Otherwise you need to be really good at tumbling and then somersaulting out of the roll while producing doves that aren't dead from inside your coat.

                                      You could take off your shoes and lather your socks up with dish soap, have a seltzer sprayer or a gallon jug of water with a hole in the cap.... spray water where your feet.... nvm. You should just strap a cut water bottle to the bottom of your shoes and then slide like a swan landing on ice.

                                          I've been known to have altogether too elaborate sounding plans right off the cuff which makes it seem like I'm prepared and have put serious thought into things I have no idea about.

                                          Want to invade Canada? Drive up the price of potato imports and start a high end french fry manufacturing company. If there's not a national universal poutine day, invent one. Undercut all other fry providers and then start horning in on the gravy market. Figure out the exact timing to put a 2 part laxative in the fries and the gravy. Boom, you can have half the population cleaning out their turd whistles like a freight train being flung out a dam sediment chute.

                                          Wait for the first flush and then attack.

                                            For a bunch of guys who have always told us to fork off, you sure seem to be obsessed with Bitcoin Cash.

                                            Yes, as someone who is happy to see 'big blockers' go and give their ideas a shot on a new chain I find the amount of attention and seeming need to try to put BCC down very odd.

                                            It's like people are totally obsessed with BCC here. Why?

                                            Why are people trying to be so negative when like you say people have been wanting people to stop the fighting with BTC forever? And finally we seem to have a solution that makes everyone happy. I don't get it.

                                            Well we disagree on the fundamentals, but at least we're smart enough to acknowledge that this split was necessary. If everybody was thinking like this, maybe this wouldn't have happened to start with...

                                            Supporting Bitcoin Cash is basically you sinking down to the level of UASFers. It's a movement that's been fueled by mountains and mountains of FUD.

                                            Do you really think a minority fork like BCC can survive when the majority are instantly selling their "free BCC"? The price will plummet, and overnight it will be a worthless coin with barely any devs supporting it.

                                            Besides, a fork like this undermines the potential of Segwit2X's 2Mb hardfork. It just gives them more to point at when they say "See? This is why we don't like hardforks".

                                            BCC should have planned to fork off if the Segwit2X 2Mb fork fails. Not before.

                                            You got it. Good luck with any future HF. UASF got us SetWit. That's a fact Jack. Deal with it or not. I don't give a damn.

                                            UASF got us SetWit

                                            That is wrong. UASF is what forced devs and miners to find a compromise, and segwit2x emerged. Without it, UASF would have activated with no economic activity and become a liability for the whole ecosystem. Which is why Bitmain proposed to UAHF just in case this happened.

                                            The price won't plummet much, it we'll never be high in the first place. It probably starts around 0.15 and goes to 0.1 BTC

                                              I would honestly want for a dip in BCC or at least wait a few weeks for the flames to cool down. Everyone here will tell you that BCC is never going to work. If you want more opinions on the matter, check out r/btc.

                                                Kraken will be supporting BCC and you will not lose anything if you keep your coins with them. After the fork, you will have 3 BTC and 3 BCC.

                                                So would you say it makes more sense to keep my bitcoin in kraken vs an offline wallet?

                                                I personally would use a hardware wallet like KeepKey or Trezor, but it depends on the amount of Bitcoin you have. If you have larger amounts of Bitcoin, it is safer to use a hardware wallet for security reasons. Also to add, the reason people are saying take your Bitcoin off of an exchange is because some exchanges (like Coinbase) are not supporting BCC and you will not be able to access the BCC coins through that exchange. Aka you will lose free money.

                                                I understand the benefits of using a hardware wallet, I guess my question was more so re: if I keep my bitcoin off an exchange like kraken, will I still obtain an equal amount of bcc come august 1st?

                                                  I have seen some interesting shit on the subway before, but I wish I was there to see this in person. The moment just as he hits the platform and realizes that this was a bad idea...Priceless.

                                                  I'm like 95% sure this was filmed on the Chicago L train. I've seen homeless dudes do this several times. They think it's cool to pull the emergency handle and jump off the train any time they want.

                                                  Is this an insurance fraud attempt or is this guy just a nutcase?

                                                  Some fools who want to create their own coin, starting August 1, but still want to leech off the bitcoin name (instead of honestly calling their altcoin something new, like Litecoin and hundreds of others already have done).

                                                  The Negro indicator is the most reliable in the traders toolbox.
