Having a debate about how far you could throw a 3 year old if you swung him round by feet like in hammer throwing. A non dad reckons 14m but I said he’s dreaming. What do you think?

14 might be a bit of a stretch. But definitely 10.

I’m now thinking about trying this in the lake this afternoon. This just made my morning. 😂

On level ground 14 m is wishful.

I think you get the extra 4m if your kiddo maintains a nice tight aerodynamic body position during flight. If you’ve got a squirmy wet noodle mid-air even 10 is a stretch

What weight? Fairly easy to validate by weighting a doll appropriately. Question, though. Are you assuming hanging on to the hands or the feet?

What do you think would be best strategy? Arm and leg or two legs? I feel like one arm one leg might be better. 14m is nonesense, though maybe if there was fire in the middle and it was the only way to save her I could manage it? That kind of incentive I think would be a 50+% power boost

This is a weird thread. I hope child services does not get to the real identity of OP

I can't believe someone laughed at my pain.

Just like in bar fights you have to remember that this person is also apply resistance in addition to their actual weight. Therefore, the toss distance will be much shorter than anticipated.

@PWC2 - not sure. I think I could talk my toddler into at least TRYING to fly

I’m so scared to let a relationship that gives me anxiety go because I’m 36 F and feel like I’m not going to find anyone else. He’s not a horrible person, but he can be inconsistent. When I bring it up to him he says he’ll try harder but then always goes back to default. I stick around because I think it’s more a personality trait and not that he’s not interested in me (maybe I’m naïve). Could really use some encouragement from a bunch of strangers.
