If you fill a car up completely with water, and then crash in to a wall going 110kmh, what will happen to the driver?

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 21:55:11 2013 No.5504433 He would drown.

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 21:57:42 2013 No.5504441 >>5504433 Alright, you found a loophole. Disregard asphyxiation, he has the ability to breathe underwater

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:00:26 2013 No.5504448 Well, the density of water is much greater than air, so one would expect the water to resist his inertia forward at the time of the crash, although probably not enough to save him from the impact at a typical speed. Also, wtf is a kmh

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:02:56 2013 No.5504452 water would break the windshield, then he would hit the wall and die

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:05:42 2013 No.5504458 >>5504452 This.

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:07:11 2013 No.5504465 >>5504452 >>5504458 This. Don't forget how heavy water is. The inertia of the water would force it out of the windshield (path of least resistance).

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:09:42 2013 No.5504469 There is no driver, the car is completely filled with water.

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:21:56 2013 No.5504495 kilometers per hour

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:35:27 2013 No.5504538 >>5504469 The water would leak out

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:39:42 2013 No.5504553 Metric is nice if you like dividing things by 10 and stuff, but let's use the more practical imperial system for real world measurements please.

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:40:57 2013 No.5504556 If you jump right before a elevator crashes you wouldn't get hurt right?

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:42:12 2013 No.5504559 >>5504556 sure, if you have legs like a grasshopper.

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 5 22:43:57 2013 No.5504561 Pretty much the same thing as if there's no water.

>>	Anonymous Wed Feb 6 01:23:56 2013 No.5504975 >>5504553 Take your cancer elsewhere.

$5 says OP read the xkcd what if "one big drop" in which whats his name explained that water is nearly incompressable and if there were a person in that drop when it impacted, they would be instantly compressed and killed, and he's trying to disguise it by using a car

>>	Anonymous Wed Feb 6 01:49:41 2013 No.5504995 You will have a wet, and dead, driver.
