skydiving mouse " parachutist"

[keithbar 1]

so what does everyone think? mho. I would have been more impressed if they had jumped with him and passed him like a baton..... but a. it's a mouse. fuck him. b. whats the terminal speed of a mouse in a GALLON ! ziplock? I'd lay odds it was not only survivable but the damn critter wasn't even hurt by the fall. now it would have been up to him to chew his way free b4 he ran out of air.

i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am .

What separates us from the beasts is not onl opposing thumbs, but the ability to achieve goals and to choose and to reason. The mouse has no choice.

Spiders, flies, cockroaches? What about possums under the porch?

There is a very strong link between animal cruelty and psychopathy.

Just saying.

Psychopathy, Sociopathy, and Antisocial Personality Disorder: Quick Facts
(by Jennifer Copley, Last Updated 13 April 2011)
What are the traits of psychopathic personality disorder?

Psychopathic traits include:

Glibness
Superficial charm
Narcissism
Manipulativeness
Deceptiveness
Grandiosity
Egocentricity
Shallow, short-lived emotions
Lack of guilt, remorse, shame, or empathy
Refusal to accept responsibility
Impulsivity
Unreliability
Lack of self-control
Parasitic lifestyle (using others, scamming social services and other organizations, etc.)
Low boredom threshold
Excessive risk taking
Promiscuity
Cruelty to animals
Substance abuse

Many people have some of these traits without meeting the diagnostic criteria for psychopathic personality disorder. Of these traits, deliberate cruelty to animals is the strongest indicator of psychopathy, given the large number of studies linking cruelty to animals with a tendency to commit violent acts against people.

Skydivers are psychopaths by nature (generally). A lot of skydivers exhibit a lot of these traits, if not all.

The mouse should survive the FF simply because of its body weight to surface area ratio....

Holy crap...you just described just about every skydiver I've ever seen!
The more line items that fit, the closer to Skygodness you are!

My reality and yours are quite different.

What about littering? Not knowing where the litter will land is also bad. It could cause something bad that nobody ever thought about.

Otter has spinning fit. Beaver only gets in on the tail of the story. One skydiver rats on the other one. Tosser gets trapped by the DA in his statements to zoo officials. Survivor poses for photo-op with news media, "Cheese!" Jury smells a rat and votes NOT Guilty!

The line in bold... something the folks affiliated with Skyride's DZ in Waverly, and formerly of Clarksville, TN, Prattville and Pell City, AL have been accused of... There was a video on the internet of them taking a live chicken in freefall, tethered to a jumper.

Well . . . I would EAT a chicken. Does that make it alright?

Killing animals, okay. I've got not qualms about killing mice, spiders (although they're useful, so I try not to), pests, game animals, things for food. I have a HUGE problem with cruelty. As a hunter, I look to make a quick kill, not to torture the animal.

BTW, I don't think a mouse's terminal velocity is high enough to kill it, no matter from how high it is dropped. At their small size and weight, the air must feel a bit like syrup.

We have a skydiving Mouse here at the Farm.
