The question asked requires the fly to be flying and somebody said kill a fly to do the test.
That's what I was responding to.

GFY genius strikes again :D

same question asked in a different way.

a fly is buzzing around inside a stopped convertible with the top down. that car accelerates at full throttle. Does the fly stay in the car?

Not sure if it does but i do know whats the last thing that goes thru its head, its ass

I think it would, set a penny on your dash and see what happens.

The answer is No, but not for the reason you think. The fly would be travelling at 100mph relative to the road. When you apply the brakes it takes approximately 400 feet to decelerate to zero mph. The fly would still be flying forward at 100mph while your car is rapidly losing speed. The fly would start to travel toward your front windshield at a speed equaling your deceleration. Flies have extremely fast reaction times and can change directions in 1/100th of a second. Flies can also fly at 15 mph. The fly could probably fly fast enough to avoid impacting the windshield altogether. Flies due to their small mass have a very low terminal velocity speed. The air would provide a soft cushion for the fly. Even if the fly did impact the windshield it would be at low speed and small objects have a much greater strength to weight ratio and would most likely survive and therefore not be smashed.

All the cables would have to break, including the broken rope safety cable for the elevator to fall. When an B-25 hit the empire state building in the 1945, an elevator fell over 75 floors and the woman inside survived.

Well, if you can find funding for, or license or sell a device to save the lives of something that lives 10 days anyway, you could truly sell anything. A guy sold the Eiffel Tower twice for scrap metal. You could probably do much better than that even. :)

haha... just occurred to me to look it up.

The genius of "crazy".
I didn't know he conned Al Capone.

Did something similar happen with you?

I don't understand
