@@tylerschannelIf you want to jump off a falling chair, you would need to counteract Earth’s gravitational and the chair’s acceleration. Assuming the building is 50 meters tall, and the person weighing 75 kg, we can assume that the amount of acceleration that the chair has when it is 1m off the ground is 9.18 m/s2, giving that the amount of acceleration you need to create to jump off the chair is >19 m/s2. Assuming you went to leg day everyday, you can generate about 30 m/s2, you would start decelerating at 10 m/s2 but since your just 1m off the ground it is way to late. So that means you are correct, it wouldn’t likely make sense difference, unless you jumped earlier and had superhuman powers.

@@Shouttouts No, the strength of the gravitational force exerted by a spherical body of mass M at a distance d from the centre of that body (where d > the radius of the body) is F = GM/r², where G is the universal gravitational constant. So above the surface of the earth, the force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the centre of the Earth. The radius of the surface of the earth is approximately 6400 km, so a height of 1000 km above the earth's surface is approximately 7400 km from the Earth's centre, which means that at that height the earth's gravity is approximately (6400/7400)² or only slightly under 3/4 as strong as it is at the earth's surface. The reason why satellites don't fall to earth is not because gravity in space is too weak to make them fall but because they have a high tangential velocity (with respect to the earth's centre). An object in outer space in the vicinity of the earth and at rest relative to the earth WILL fall to the earth.

Also, obviously it's not the same being it by a punch that moves slow, 0,1m per second, than one fast that goes 10m per second. All the different types of blunt damages are the same, a force that suddenly touches a part of your body that couldn't really tolerate it's magnitude. The bigger the force, the bigger the chance of breaking that part of your body. Now, in the case of a falling, you have a lot of downward momentum. Meanwhile, the floor doesn't like to be moved downward, he's really cozy staying right there. But you cannot keep your downward movement unless the floor moves down too. So what does he do? He applies a force to you to stop you from going down in an instant. Your body is just like a bridge. Too much weight on top of it, and it will sooner or later break apart.

You can't get that push (i.e. pushing your legs from the chair), since you and the chair are falling at the same rate. Unless you have some antigravity power to just give that one time boost/kick off from the chair, it will not work. The gravitational pull is so high, that you need to have the strength above that pulling force (on a human body), for you to do that one push from the chair.

If the superhero is flying in the same speed, catch you and take you to a safer speed may be able to survive
According to google, the average mass of a person is about 62 kg. The terminal velocity of a person is 53 m/s. Assuming a person falling from 10 stories reaches terminal velocity before they reach 1 meter above the ground, they reach a momentum of 3286 kg m/s. To completely reverse this momentum and land safely, there must be a change of momentum of 3286 kg m/s in the opposite direction. By the impulse-momentum theorem, we know that force times time equals change in momentum. According to research, the total pushoff time for a jump is about 300 milliseconds or .3 seconds. Therefore, the person must exert 10953.33 Newtons of force to completely reverse the momentum. Of course this is assuming the chair is extremely heavy and all of the force the person exerts when pushing off is exerted back on them. To interpret this force in terms of a regular jump off of stable ground, we use the kinematic equation vf^2 = vi^2 + 2ax. To find the height of the jump, we use a final velocity of 0 m/s and -9.8 m/s^2 for acceleration by gravity. The initial velocity can be found by taking our jump push off time times our force of 10953.33 newtons divided by our person mass of 62 kg to get an initial jump velocity of 53 m/s. We plug it into the above kinematic equation and find that exerting a force of 10953.33 Newtons would result in a jump height of 143.32 meters or more than one football pitch. In conclusion to be able to pull this off, you would need to be able to jump 143.32 meters on normal ground.

Even if you detach from the chair on time, the downward force produced by your weight won't be balanced immediately at that very low height by your motion in the z axis(You're not even directly opposing your weight.) Our bones won't able to withstand the incoming reaction force in an equilibrium condition which is unstable. So you'll break your bones.

By the way, this works in minecraft but with a boat instead of a chair
What if you hang onto the chair but swing it like a giant hammer at the ground below you, continuing to push it into the ground as you flip to the opposite side, tipping the chair in the process like a lever? This would cause an initial impact between the ground and chair rather than the ground and your body. Pushing it into the ground is actually going to push you away from the ground (effectively not creating any more distance but dampening the impact). Flinging yourself over the chair will A) keep you from falling onto shards of a broken chair, B) keep you off the ground longer, forcing the chair to absorb more of the impact, and C)redirect some if your momentum to the side, rather than into the ground.

People who abuse the physics Engine and think its realistic.
I like this, subbed.
I think it's similar to jumping high on a moving bus, you still move with the speed of bus rather than become still in that place
The chair would have more air resistance so you reduce the fall damage there. The jump also reduces it a little bit but the chair would probably reduce it more by breaking.
The chair has to be heavy enough
Jumping to nullify the falling impact will still produce that impact anyway because youre still abruptly stopping so that jump is still going to hurt you just as much if not worse
If the chair was heavy enough, the strength required to do that would be equivalent to the strength required to simpler land on your feet without ever using the chair. If you are falling 100km/h, and you want to cancel that fall, you legs need to be able to resist a jump that propels you at 100km/h. The energy needed to generate the inertia is kinda the same as stopping it
I thought the same concept jumping from a bus that has failed brakes. I guess it works in that situation. We have to push ourself in opposite direction to the motion of the bus to avoid moving relatively in the direction in which the bus moves so would avoid several uncontrolled high speed somersaults
Ok since I found this channel, tell me what stops me from falling, but not jumping out a window in a standing position and then kicking the building to push myself laterally to land in a roll? I feel like this shouldn’t work but I don’t know why
To summarize, your attempt to jump would just result in you kicking the chair downward.
Staying on the chair would probably help significantly if you can land it on its legs and with you on the cushion part
This is like ground pounding in Mario games, you fall from a deadly height, ground pound at the right moment and voilá, no damage...
Sure Mr. Ingsoc, I will not gravity cancel to save my life.
If the chair had wings that gave enough air resistance to slowdown the fall speed enough for you to not only fall slower but also get to use some of your legs kick power.
The chair might still be a good idea if you stay in it. It has the potential to reduce the damage on your body. Won't exactly "break your fall" like in a movie way, but I imagine it could save your life.
You can simply cancel the damage by doing a ground pound smh
What if you -grabbed a chair -had a thick layer of something soft on you (iirc a couple sheets of blankets tied to your waist/pillows) -you jump with the chair, holding it tight -as you're rapidly hitting the ground, lunge forward by letting go of the chair -you don't get flattened by a pancake and your makeshift cushioner does it's job -you only break 90% of the bones in your body You survive unharmed! See, easy wasn't it
Use a water bucket on the chair to waterlog it. Then use another water bucket to MLG
The theory is sound, but in practice, one would actually want to *_slow their descent_* instead.
People be thinking in cartoon physics man. 😂
Just bring a bucket of water, a professional miner would have always think of that first
Could a water bucket technically work?
I'm not so sure this is reason behind the Homelander scene. I believe it was something to do with the fact that the plane is so heavy and large that if he tried to lift it, he would end up making a Homelander shaped hole in it. And I think he could carry the plane if not for the reason I mentioned above, because he's already magically manipulating his own valocity against gravity when he's flying.
I think if you stand on the chair while it lands the legs of the chair will take most of the force and break while you will suffer less injury. Of course this depends on the design of the chair. If the chair legs don’t break then it won’t work
You know people spend thier entive lives playing videogames when they actually belive this
Thank you Tyler. -Tyler
Just do a ground pound at the last second to avoid fall damage
“Disregarding air resistance” -average physics problem
I mean technically it works Its just not enough to save you
Fall damage is based off the acceleration or deceleration, which is based off speed. Not height. This is why jumping off a chair or plane at the last second does not work. When you jump off, you still have a lot of speed, which increases deceleration, which increases fall damage.

So, are you more likely to survive by sitting/standing on the chair, since it would absorb the impact? Or would you and the chair absorb the impact equally since you're touching
Honestly, I’m no scientist and I understand barely anything from this video, but what would happen if you just stayed on the chair? Sure you’ll break a leg but would it be safer than jumping off before the chair crashes? (Just a random question)
You would need to jump off 20 meters before landing since your push force of 20m/s on the chair that falls 10m/s and you falling 10m/s so youd have one second fall time of the chair since you accelerate it and decellerate yourself. 20meter drop is about 5 stories tall so yeah you will still hurt yourself and id would be possible from 800+meters off the ground with perfect timing. A well trained human can push with 30m/sec when they have strong legs so it would be possible to theoretically jump off the chair from 12meters high and land with less broken bones and popped blod vessels but don't try since it's al theoretical.
