Fun fact: Jackie Chan's parents named him that because his dad ran a porn website similar to 4chan called Jacky Chan in the 1950s before anyone even knew the Internet was possible. Truly a family ahead of the times. It's a shame he went on to be a successful movie star.

[-] expatriado@lemmy.world 35 points 3 months ago

business was tough, had to close shop multiple times, but with perseverance kept trying, hence 1chan, 2chan, 3chan, and so forth

[-] baatliwala@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Tbh 2ch was a real thing

[-] StarvingMartist@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

Real answer, his original name was chang kong sang, which means born in Hong Kong

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Are you sure it wasnt just a site with a load of webs in it

[-] SillyDude@lemmy.zip 46 points 3 months ago

I'd haunt you and your ancestors for a thousand years if your bitch ass didn't pull that lever and let me die without seeing some sick ass shit.

[-] Pupschism@lemmy.world 38 points 3 months ago

I would definitely pull the lever, it looks like AI designed the track to crash into itself. Is this how AI will save the world, through it's own incompetence? ๐Ÿ˜

[-] Shaper@lemmy.world 30 points 3 months ago

I'd pull the lever cause it's going to derail on that u-turn for sure

[-] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 6 points 3 months ago

Very optimistic, that it will even make it through the loop.

[-] altphoto@lemmy.today 22 points 3 months ago

Yes! The trolley would get stuck on the way down as it hits the first set of rails.

[-] LORDSMEGMA@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 months ago

Shit, that would give me enough time to dive on the tracks right in front of the 5 people

[-] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago
[-] oxysis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago

Thatโ€™s what they are doing

[-] sompreno@lemmy.zip 16 points 3 months ago

There's always a chance it doesn't clear the loop

[-] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 20 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

That is a very high chance based on what we see, given that it is physically too large to make it.

[-] athatet@lemmy.zip 11 points 3 months ago

Nah the loop is further away so the trolly is gonna be smaller by the time it gets there.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago
[-] bstix@feddit.dk 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

The tram will be traveling the loop at close to the speed of light.

Due to special relativity it will be shorter as it goes through the loop, so the wheels will fit the tracks perfectly when observed from the lever.

[-] PodPerson@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago

Is there a chance the track could bend?

[-] Teppa@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Not on your life my hindu friend.

[-] PodPerson@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

MONORAIL. MONORAIL. MONORAIL.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

There's a chance of anything at any time.

For example, yesterday there were tornados here. A lot of people lost power. I live in an apartment building.

Floors 1-4 have power. Floors 5-7 no power. I can't explain HOW that's possible, but clearly there was a chance.

[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 1 points 3 months ago

Apartment buildings have multiple circuits that connect to the grid. Sometimes my power partially goes out, so like these outlets work but those don't, because there's three circuits and one tends to break first

[-] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 3 months ago

Blood has a stickiness so the trolly has a better chance to make it through the loop when it crushes the people first.

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 months ago

Seems unethical not to.

[-] altasshet@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 months ago
[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Not for the people watching at home on pay per view!

[-] rumba@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 months ago

The chance for the trolly to fail on the loop or derail on the bend is much higher.

pull it that they might live.

or, since you're ahead of it, pull it, then try to get on board and stop it

[-] Gork@sopuli.xyz 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Hell yeah ๐Ÿ˜Ž

[-] smuuthbrane@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

In the words of Kite Man, "Hell yeah!"

[-] mgenehoffman@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago

Hell yeah loop de loop

[-] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Also Builds momentum meaning their death is over quicker.

[-] ilillilillilillililli@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Loops take momentum, they don't add it. But I also don't want to be called a physics nerd and get my lunch money stolen.

[-] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

ur right ur right, i was being videogame brained.

The loop and the many little turns may reduce momentum enough to save some people, depending on how fast the trolley was already going

[-] paransol@piefed.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 months ago

increase passengers adrenalime via loop first

[-] Siegfried@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

If it is moving fast enough to do the loop, it is probably going fast enough to derail on that awsome u turn

[-] Botanicals@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Nice ๐Ÿค˜

[-] zerobot@lemmy.wtf 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

i'd ask a friend to pull the lever for me so i can be in the trolley

[-] Etterra@discuss.online 2 points 3 months ago

The mediocrity principle suggests that they're just regular people, so pulling the lever will give them a cool loop and possibly accelerate the trolly to make the death quicker, so I'd do that.

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

Do a kickflip!

[-] m3t00@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

let them think they will see the loop. hoping it will crash is just torture.

[-] Mio@feddit.nu 1 points 3 months ago

Wait until train come then start pushing. After the loop you dont know what is or down so you derail before hitting all ppl.

[-] Danarchy@lemmy.nz 1 points 3 months ago

I remember this level in Tony hawk

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Only if the trolley does a kickflip on the way too
