Watched a car flip 9 times in a movie and walk away, so I did the math on my lunch break
In Fast & Furious 6 there is a scene where a car rolls 9 times and the driver hops out with a scratch on his cheek, so I looked up crash test data and real rollover injuries at 60 mph. Turns out the g-forces alone would knock someone out cold, and that is before the roof caves in. Does anyone else keep a running list of scenes like this, or do you just yell at the screen and move on?
The "g-forces alone would knock someone out cold" part is what gets me, because people always argue the driver just got lucky. Lucky does not keep your brain from slamming into your skull at 60 mph, so the math never works no matter how they film it. What made you start keeping the list in the first place, was it one scene that finally broke you?
