i didn't know golden gate bridge jumpers went into the water, i always thought they jumped onto land. i thought that water is like concrete **** was cliche, but it's effectively like hitting concrete apparently since you ****ing die.
makes me mad, we're so fragile and ****gy that we can't even hit water at 90mph without dying.
but who was physics?
but who was tsunami?

I don't Say this lightly, but if you're an adult and you just figured this out...
You're the dumbest kunt on the misc, maybe the whole internet.
can confirm
jumped off a 30 ft diving board without any idea wtf I was doing
came out looking like I got ran over by a truck

How's that dumb considering you can fall like 9 stories and have a 1 in 10 chance of surviving (thats the ld90)? There are records of people jumping (belly flop) far as **** into small little pools of water, 8booth jumps into water all the time from like 10 stories. Some divers dive from like 170 feet, at terminal velocity speeds and are fine.
That is not common sense that hitting water with a small surface area like your feet can be deadly.
there's a documentary called 'the bridge'

Sad your highschool hasn't taught you what buoyancy is
Do you often wish your were a super saiyan OP?
Now think of how ballsy these guys are

just cannonball it, you'd be fine ;)
trust me, I was ACME physics
OK... Well the Golden Gate Bridge is fukking 20 stories. And still most of the people that jump off of it survive the fall. They just drown because of injuries and cold water.
Also, have you ever seen the Golden Gate Bridge? did you think they just built a massive bridge over land for chits and giggles?

No but there is land that people fall onto when attempting to jump into the water, and the concrete things if they climb to the top.
World record dive was about 17 stories @ terminal velocity.

This
not to mention you thought people jumped off the GGB onto land.
OP needs to learn about surface tension...
[QUOTE=TommyRO;1508533411]Sad your highschool hasn't taught you what buoyancy is[/QUOTE]
I don't see why you would say buoyancy over the amount of water you need to displace in a given time and space?
but who was gravity?
I actually had a plan to jump off the Brooklyn bridge just for fun, I thought the people that died were just ****gy DYELS. But then after doing more research I realized its the same as falling into concrete from that height so I decided to put it off.
You can actually survive it, if you go feet first you'll just break your legs and if you are lucky you can swim into land.

I know about surface tension, and yes many die by hitting the land near the bridge or the concrete. Jets under pools are to break the tension, but again it's not common sense to know the amount it actually helps. that it can turn terminal velocity speeds into something that doesnt do chit and if lacking it makes 90mph deadly.

apparently most of them drown (with broken bones still), or somehow hit land, i assume they are talking about the piers

Drowning with broken feet is definitely not a fun way to die.
The thing is that at that speed you are going so fat that the water molecules can't move fast enough between your legs so you might as well have hit a solid object on impact. The same thing happens when you fire a gun from very close range, what you will see is that the bullet doesnt go very far, but if you fire it from far the bullet goes far because its slower and the water molecules have more time to move apart.
Golden Gate jumpers have a 2% chance of survival from ~250 feet.

ok so hes far from what i thought would be term velocity, the calculator ignores wind resistance and all that. it'd require like 400 feet to hit that speed.
