Experimental error ftw :)...

I wouldn't mind roller blading down that.

Stopping would suck though. :Q

That was awesome. You know the planning went like this:

"Hey, lets roll some tires down a ski jump."
"Sounds good, but why would we be doing it?"
"To see which flies the furthest?"
"Works for me."
"Hey Joe, get some tires for us to roll down a ski jump!"
"What kind?"
"Some sort of variety."
"We're just going to roll them down the jump?"
"Yeah"
"Sweet!"

trivia no izumi always does pointless tests and stuff like this.

i remember one where they were testing the strength of different types of jeans by hooking it up to a forklift and pulling. or which dog will try to save it's master.

my favorite would be the densha otoko inspired one to see which otaku/dorky stereotypical anime fan, would try to help or save the girl being harrassed.

yeah, that last tire just smashed right through the jump...while hilarious, I'm pretty sure that screwed up its distance...of course maybe it ended up being safer that it smashed through instead of being fully launched, who knows how much more dangerous it would have been :D

That last one was awesome! They had to pay to fix all that ... they broke some glass at the end.

Moment of Inertia isn't applicable to this. I think you meant to say Momentum, which is mass times velocity.
