    🤯 A visual physics lesson at 80 km/h.

    Enthusiasts launched a man from a moving truck in the opposite direction - at the same speed the car was traveling.

    The experiment spectacularly showed how relative speed works.

      PS: Don't do this near light speed without changing the formula. A few other practical problems might show up too 😉

              @nexta 80-80=0. 80-160? That's something different.

                  @nexta I guess that solves that math problem. Now do it with trains.

                          @bodhipaksa @nexta IIRC they did it with something like a basketball, not a human. Otherwise pretty much the same though.

                                  @moira @laris @nexta and the video addresses the folks who are chirping in response that it's an unsafe experiment in humans. Lots of test runs building up to it!

                                    @nexta now do it at 400km/h from a jet, it'd only be like ~30G of acceleration

                                      I feel like I'd want to have full motorcycle safety gear just in case the velocity didn't match and you wound up unceremoniously yeeted into a slide

                                        🤯 A visual physics lesson at 80 km/h.

                                        Enthusiasts launched a man from a moving truck in the opposite direction - at the same speed the car was traveling.

                                        The experiment spectacularly showed how relative speed works.
