Rain - Fast or slow?
 

Topic: Will you get hit by more rain drops if you are running or walking?

Running.

If you are walking you cover a less area that the drops could be in, say there are 20 drops inside of a 6ft by 3ft rectangle while you are walking it only multiplies so fast, now if you are running you have a chance to break through new barriers and get hit by more drops.

Ever drove in the rain? Notice how it seems like it's raining harder when you're moving rather than stationary?

But if there's wind to rain, and you're in a large storm, there isn't much difference if you stay still, walk, or run, except that if you run you'll get hit by more of the rain.

Walking.

Walking, but I got this from watching Myth Busters.

Rhode Island. Neither a road or an island.

Rhode is a Greek Deity?

The Deity of Miniscule Armpit States?

"Over a hundred yard course, it is better to walk in the rain than run in the rain, if your goal is to not get wet. The difference isn't huge, but over eight trials the running person got wetter."

Mythbusters redid the experiment and found that it's better to run in the rain.

but its better to run in the rain, on a slick surface, with a knife in your hand, and a noose around your neck...and it attached to a tree...

but only if your black of course

What the fuck are you on? x_X.

I got a better idea.


Get an umbrella. If you're out in the rain and worried about the degree of wetness you are going to obtain it's going to be miniscule when compared to having an umbrella, or not being out in the rain at all.

stand under my umbrella ella ella eh eh eh

She says umberella.

Foreign wench. I'd bang her twice, then throw her out.

id just like hit her with a baseball bat. i HATE that song. and everyday at camp last year BLI was on for 8 hours. That song came on at least 3 times a day. no joke.

Sometimes I have herd a song played, then another, then the first again. It is absurd. No one wants to listen to a song that many times.

im on something, not sure yet...
