Energy doesn't move much of anything. All we use that for is moving some kind of mass, whether air, water, or rotating solids. None of those apply to Iron Man.Quote:

Even assuming that the stuff weighed less than an ounce per meter, which would mean that it would be lighter and stronger than any substance known, to get the kind of distance and volume he's creating would mean significant recoil and a HUGE expenditure in weight. Also, unless the stuff evaporated (also like nothing known), he'd be entombing a city at the rate he's going.
By the way, you might want to check on the length of the intestine, though I'd have to say that it took a lot of guts to make the claim that you did.
One of the stranger posts, so it fits right in.
lol. I love that!!!Quote:

Well maybe not the intestine but I remember clearly my biology teacher back in school a lifetime ago saying something in the human body was something like 2 miles long.Quote:

If you all keep posting images this "not so big in GB thread" is going to start taking server resources...
At which point some mod will come along and tell us it's time to go home ;)
I have decided what's happening.
I have not.
Yes you have.
Not?Quote:

European vienna sausage served hot in a long bun with condiments is often called a "hot dog", harking not to the wiener itself, but to the long sandwich as a whole.
In North America, the term "vienna sausage" has most often come to mean only smaller and much shorter smoked and canned wieners, rather than hot dogs." - wiki
Do you mean the longer hot dogs or the smaller cocktail weiners, and what are they made out of???
Actually there is an upload limit I am almost certain of it, no dream whatsoever. The thing is that all of the pictures are dragging the thread down which also simulates a dream experience of slowed down reality, although we can all see what you are dreaming about!Quote:

Ah not a direct hyperlink, but inserted as hyperlinked image; however, a stream of large pictures still drags the thread down!
Yep 2 miles was a very gutsy claim, the truth is the large intestine is approximately 1.5 metres (5 feet) and the small intestine is approximately 7 metres (23 feet) for a total of 8.5 metres or 28 feet.Quote:

Two miles is pretty close. 28 feet has a two in it, and both meters and miles could have the abbreviation m for the unit. Therefore, he was off by a single digit.
Although, come to think of it, if he did have 2 miles of intestines in his stomach, there would be a lot of localised swelling, which would resemble a very very heavy pregnancy.Quote:
