Hello I want to bring something to your attention
Alright hello! so I did some research and if a player is using flight duration 3 rockets and an elytra they're going around 74.9 mph so if you were to hold a STICK and just slap a villager with it while flying the villager should have at least half a heart because when your going around 75 mph and you slap someone with a stick that's gonna hurt them and according to chatGPT "
If someone were traveling at 74.9 mph (about 120.5 km/h) and hit another person with a stick, the result could be catastrophically dangerous—potentially fatal—depending on a few key details. Let's break it down:
At this speed, the force generated by any collision is extreme. To put it in context:
If this person swings or jabs a stick at another individual while moving at that speed:
The danger also depends on the stick's:
A metal or hardwood stick, for example, could easily cause lethal injuries at this velocity.
A human traveling at 74.9 mph unaided (e.g., running) is physically impossible. But if:
That would make the situation extremely dangerous and very likely result in serious injury or death to the person being struck.
If someone were traveling at 74.9 mph (about 120.5 km/h) and hit another person with a stick, the result could be catastrophically dangerous—potentially fatal—depending on a few key details. Let's break it down:
🔹 1. Human Body Moving at 74.9 mph
At this speed, the force generated by any collision is extreme. To put it in context:
This speed is comparable to highway car crashes, which often result in severe injuries or death.
The kinetic energy of a 150 lb person (68 kg) at 74.9 mph is over 21,000 joules—roughly the energy of a small-caliber bullet multiplied many times over.
🔹 2. Force of Impact with a Stick
If this person swings or jabs a stick at another individual while moving at that speed:
The effective impact speed is close to the full 74.9 mph, plus any additional speed from the swing.
The stick becomes a high-speed projectile; if it strikes vital areas (e.g., head, neck, chest), it could:
Fracture bones
Cause traumatic brain injury
Puncture internal organs
Lead to fatal blunt force trauma
🔹 3. Type of Stick
The danger also depends on the stick's:
Mass (a heavier stick causes more damage)
Material (wood vs metal vs plastic)
Shape (a pointed end would penetrate more than a blunt one)
A metal or hardwood stick, for example, could easily cause lethal injuries at this velocity.
🔹 4. Scenario Realism
A human traveling at 74.9 mph unaided (e.g., running) is physically impossible. But if:
They’re on a vehicle (e.g., bike, car, skateboard, or even falling from a height), and
Swing a stick at someone—
That would make the situation extremely dangerous and very likely result in serious injury or death to the person being struck.
✅ In Summary:
" nothing is safe from a stick any more
A person moving at 74.9 mph who strikes someone with a stick could cause life-threatening or fatal injuries. The high speed translates into immense force, and any object used in such a strike becomes a dangerous weapon.

surprisingly interesting haha

during rainstorms, you can use riptide enchanted tridents in combination with rain to travel mach speeds (close to that of an F-16 fighter jet, for example), in which case whoever you are slapping with a stick would likely not survive assuming you hit them in their head. however, of course, in minecraft you would simply take half a heart of damage... if somehow they were hit in the head at the speed of the concorde and SURVIVED, they would still suffer extreme head trauma and likely cognitive decline similar to that of alzheimer's or dementia. in conclusion, don't turn into an F-14 tomcat and hit someone with a stick. thank you.

dude that's... when did you have the time to do this???

do this but with logs...

According to chatGPT when using a log in this case we’re generating “≈ 164.7 million joules of kinetic energy.
For context: That’s roughly equivalent to the energy of 39 kg of TNT or the energy released by a small anti-tank missile. Hitting someone with that would be catastrophically lethal.” OH HECK YOU WANT TO RUN IF YOU SEE THAT… not like you’d outrun them or anything so probably just accept your fate. 💀

We’re producing EXACTLY 164,719,240 joules… this is not possible to survive.

Now imagine if they had 2 sticks...

D: oh no we're all dead imagine we used logs.

time do calculations LOL (well for chatGPT to do them for me)

and we're hitting someone with more power than a rifle has in it's shot's lol and they use 10,000 to 20,000 joules

we're hitting a person with 218,726 joules they're gone 💀

what am I doing with my life 💀

Well, yes (although I only eyeballed the arithmetic)…
But in MC most blocks are unaffected by gravity, a turtle egg can support a 100 metre column of gold, one can swim fully armored (in gold 😲), obsidian is a rock, and 30m high (2x2 square) trees grow in an instant.
The massive level of unreality is a feature; it just needs not to break verisimilitude.

yes I know this but if we gave minecraft realistic physics then well... nothing can stop stick.

True, but MC with realistic physics would be a very different game (likely too simulationist for my tastes)

MC with realistic physics: bridging = 💀
Elytra = 💀
Water clutch = 💀
gold = 🏋️
Elytra = 💀
Water clutch = 💀
gold = 🏋️

Ok but I’m saying like fantasy sandbox game where elytra’s work and it has physics.
