Why do I feel like this occurred somewhere in Florida?

MightyIink
That's what happens when you remove the ultrasonic sensor and base your collision detection on camera alone. "Meh, it's clear enough..."
Neotic357
Actually a step further back, when they removed Radar, USS typically has a range of around 4m (less than 0.2s at 80km/h)

Yup, he’s going to need to drop another ball near the tree to finish the hole.

People don't realise that it's not necessarily impact forces that will kill you, but massive, sudden G-forces. It can rip your aorta off
HoneyBadgersAreBadAsses
another thing: moving your head fast can give you a stroke and then, bye bye you.
triggrhaapi
The air spring in the ball buffers the acceleration significantly. Same reason we have five million airbags.
Uhxohr
Eh, the two are directly linked, newton's second law
ThioSuxTube
You clearly never studied anatomy...
mercbrit
So it’s not the impact but the impact that kills you. Got it.

I think that went about as well as it possibly could have. Was there another outcome he was hoping for?
Chumbawhumba
It actually looks like his jump was stifled somehow, like maybe an Achilles tendon rupture... He barely made it off the ground.
DongleDingler
I would guess the jumper assumed the driver would keep a steady speed, but driver was stopping for something in the road behind the jumper
pullingsixty
That would have given the jumper more time gain altitude or at least tuck.

It was; 200 lbs of human meat doesn't float like that.
gearsmith
With enough force... well I guess it would be a human rain.
CatBeagler
It might if you gave it spherical aerodynamics and spread its density out over the given volume
nintyuk
"For this example were going to ignore air friction"
htapoicoS
Maybe it was a european or asian? They aren't 200lbs+ in average
CatBeagler
Depends on if they are laden with coconuts?
CollateralMarmot
Maybe it was OP's mom
BossVarriack
You know Americans only average 11 pounds more than Brits right? And the average for Americans is below 200 pounds? Not by much but still
htapoicoS
11 is much considered it's in average - take away all the kids, grannies, fit dudes and girls and the rest has easily 30 more
AssensAlheure
Brits don’t consider themselves European
IGotsDemGoodies
You chose Brits to compare, the fattest bastards on this continent??
MeanMisterClean
Apparently the AVERAGE for a man in the US is 199.8. At my fattest/least fit I was 182 at 6'1'' and looking back I was pretty lardy. Yeesh.
Thelordschips47
Body type matters too. In Highschool I was 185lbs and 5'10" and only had 9% body fat. I did a lot of weight lifting
Murmull
weight is irrelevant anyway, if you are 6'4 weighing 200 pounds is very normal. body size and shape varies greatly from country to country.
BossVarriack
This is very true as well. Though I was comparing Britts and Americans whose height averages are pretty close
TheOneTrueZippy8
I am no expert on these matters but that does not look entirely safe.
LCDC
Most things Danny Duncan does is not safe. Entertaining though
MrRandom314159
True. Humans exclusively do safe things.
vorodar
You are completely right - you are not an expert on these matters. Also about not looking entirely safe.
PleasantPeasantPheasant
I *think* the person in the bubble is a dummy, but the camera isn't on them long enough to confirm.

Very fake, if you put a 100 plus pound object in front of a car at that speed both the car and the object are going to have a bad time.

No need to worry, he had his seat belt on.
750to2Kspud
Thumbs up.
backrideup9
That's a dummy in the bubble right? Not like a drunk moron human, but like the things stores use to show off outfits.
CelestialSea
With the sudden acceleration, even if the bubble protected him from direct harm, he'd still have a serious concussion and probably whiplash.
Theonlyyeti
I'm familiar with drunk idiots...who knows?
Ivalicenyan
Unless the impact instantly killed the object in the bubble, the silhouette of a man is still. There's no arms or legs moving in the tree

Mullensandtheoctopus
I'm pretty sure the bubble is empty?
UnrealDreamer
If the bubble were empty there wouldn’t be enough mass to fly like that Air resistance would stop it immediately. Also it’s fake.
backrideup9
Nope.
CelestialSea
You can clearly see a human-shaped figure in it. The video is fake though. No way a human weight would sit in those branches like that.
Drunkenhalfling
It's real, and with a dummy
CelestialSea
Whether it's a practical or digital effect it's still fake.
Drunkenhalfling
What is fake about it, the clip is real. They don't claim there's a real person in there...
RogueEnthusiast
Yould be surprised, if the weight was evenly distributed within the bubble and again by branches across the surface area of the bubble.
thedevil
You are correct. It is incredibly unsafe driving in a Tesla. Those things are cheaply made death traps
TacoPoweredHelicopter
My family is alive because my father's Tesla avoided the head on collision of a texting driver. Rather the automation the people.
TacoPoweredHelicopter
People are the worst. The faster we can remove them the better.
thedevil
Yeah the data doesn’t back up your anecdotal story fanboy.
TacoPoweredHelicopter
Show me? Also it's only going to get better and people are going to stay awful.

I happen to be an expert on these matters (dumb shit) and can assure you, this is entirely rad as hell

I happen to be a safety expert, and ... as long as this is not a worksite and i dont have to do the paperwork.... go for it.
SyntheticReindeer
He said yea guys!!!!! Lets fill the office with teslas and big bubbles!!!
mastamage
Mostly unsafe, starting with bypassing the collision sensors
VodkaReindeer
"What could go wrong with that?" -Uber, definitely
Jantessa
From my minor experience in doing collision avoidance with small robots, likely the car failed to recognize that w/out tampering needed lol
backrideup9
It fails to recognize cars stopped on freeways when it's working properly. I'm convinced it saw nothing b/c the bubble is kinda transparent
TheOneTrueZippy8
My primary concern was not for expensive-to-repair front end damage to the Tesla.
mastamage
I know, but I assume the person in the ball is on board with doing dumb shit
RocketKokket
Wait that's a real person in the bubble!? Oof
GanjaPlanet
Ya, his name is Eager Yeet Splatter
Nusete
Yeah, those cars tend to catch fire pretty often. I wouldn't recomend be inside one
Seanspeed
This really isn't true at all. Teslas continue to prove way safer than most other cars. You are experiencing confirmation bias.
4ismymaximum
Watch out, elon fanboys incoming!
Atomic2
You only think that because every time one does, it makes the news. Mile/mile, hybrids catch fire the most, followed by ICE, then EVs.
pudaheh
Just imagine if something as poorly made as a Tesla was carrying around 70l of fuel. *BOOM*
flarflarf
my guy, they catch on fire at a higher rate than Pintos did.
flarflarf
or, to be more precise, more people die in tesla fires, which i think is the stat people care about
Atomic2
Look up the statistics and evs (the bulk of the sample data of which are teslas) caught fire the least of all vehicles. I've heard that >>
flarflarf
https://www.reddit.com/r/RealTesla/comments/xbhr44/this_is_a_great_post_outlining_and_showing_that/
Atomic2
You trust data from the 1970s? Especially when Ford was paying millions to keep this story on the DL? Independent estimates attribute >>
Atomic2
500-900 burn deaths as a result of the pinto. This is from the American museum of Tort Law. Source >>
RJWaters
They make the news because theyre nearly impossible to put out, and burn longer.
flarflarf
also because people die in tesla fires at a higher rate than they did in the Ford fucking Pinto
Atomic2
Thats different than suggesting "tend to catch fire pretty often" nor advising folks avoid them.
Seanspeed
No, they make the news cuz it's easy fearmongering that plays on people's ignorance.
flarflarf
no, they make the news because people die in tesla fires at a higher rates than they did in the Ford Pinto
