This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Skateboard weighs like 2kg.

I weigh like 100 kg. Yeah, fat fuck, I know.

Cliffs don't have a defined height, but let's say 100 m.

Speed at impact is like 45 m/s.

Have to kick skateboard downwards at 2250 m/s, or 8100 km/h to neutralise speed. That requires about 5 megajoules of energy.

Lose only about 0.13 kg of fat to kick board that hard but become deaf from the board becoming supersonic.

6/10, wouldn't do that again.

Just use a big rock instead :) just need 10 kilojoules of energy for a 1 ton rock. Even less for a bigger rock.

How are you going to do a kickflip with a rock?
