Forums - General - How many 5 year olds...

LOL... depends if I could bring myself to act violently towards a 5yr old :P

Most likely I couldn't, so 1 of them could beat me up. Otherwise - maybe 10...20. Depends how far they started from me, and if they started in a pack or circle. If a pack of 10-15 rushes anyone at once, its going to be hard to beat them off.

<shudder at mental image>

When I pull out my Francesca, Snakeskin Boots, and Robin Hood Hat, everyone dies.

Still, I wouldn't waste them on 5 year olds.



 

 

Well, I can easily do Tatsu Maki Senpuu Kyaku from Street Fighter, so even 1000 5 year olds aren't big problem for me :P



True fighters don't wear socks.

Since apparently some didn't get it, yes i was being tongue-in-cheek for that part of the post... at the same time, gaming has definitely increased my ability to think strategically (or so i would like to believe), so it was only half kidding. Not gonna say that pressing the "a" button a bunch makes me a master at kung-fu though.



Please, PLEASE do NOT feed the trolls.

As many of the little buggers you can fit in the space, I could chop em all!

Being a big guy myself and lifting weights for the last 5 years this could be easy, but thers only so long you can swing little kids around before you get tired. But one nice punch or kick to the kid will no doubt cause him to leave the fight. If it was 1v1 i could go forever, but a swarm of about 50 kids could be hard. Most little kids like to bite and my ankles might not last for over 30 minutes :(



I'm not touching this with a 10^15 foot stick.



Well, I've been lifting weights and doing cardio for 4 years. I jog for an hour a day, so I have very good endurance. I can squat a solid 450 pounds and I can Bench a solid 250. I also was on my track team and did discus throwing for years in Middle School and High School, so I have a good arm. I am 5' 11" tall. I figure since (credit to Alpha) the average 5 year old is about 50 pounds and 3.7 feet tall, my best strategy would be to lift them by the ankle and swing them.

So, my first priority would be to grab one of the small 5-year-olds (a 30-40 pounder) and swing away, knocking the others to the side as I moved through the crowd to get my back against a corner (assuming a square room) or at least a wall.

Ideally, I could find a second small 5 year old and then be able to wield one in each hand with relative ease. If I could find 2 small ones, given that I do my weight training in repetitions and have quite a bit of endurance, I think I could take out quite a few. The small ones would of course need to be knocked unconscious first, but that would be relatively simple.

Let's say each swing of a 5-year-old was a 90 degree arc. I could swing with each hand. If each 5 year old is 40 pounds, I would estimate that before tiring I could swing them with an extended arm 20 times each. at a 90 degree arc, if they are bunched together, each swing should be able to hit 2 or 3 5-year-olds (we'll estimate 2.5 to be safe).

2 X 20 X 2.5 + 2 (the ones I knocked out in the first place) = 102 5 year olds. However, I believe I would at least have enough energy left to chuck the 2 I was holding as clubs before collapsing in exhaustion and being overtaken. When thrown, they should be large enough to take out an extra 5-year-old each, putting my total at a solid 104 5-year-olds.



I think that if you're unlucky you could loose pretty quickly. Think of 5 kids all trying to grab your legs while you're kicking them. You would probably loose your balance at one time. When you're lying down you're an easy target.
But if you keep moving that may not happen.
