The gas is pushing on the rocket, the gas isn't pushing off of the air

2019-04-04 06:03:13 UTC  

you'd need a gun that would work underwater for it to work

2019-04-04 06:03:22 UTC  

but in nz we dont worry about people carrying around hand guns and suicides are less?

2019-04-04 06:03:22 UTC  

like a spear gun

2019-04-04 06:03:51 UTC  

its smokeless powder

2019-04-04 06:04:02 UTC  

that has no relevance to vacuums and rockets/fans/feathers

2019-04-04 06:04:15 UTC  

gun ownership is directly related to suicide succesfulness

2019-04-04 06:04:19 UTC  

@^Kevin^ Alright, what about what I said then

2019-04-04 06:04:27 UTC  

gun usage*

2019-04-04 06:04:52 UTC  

you cannot throw yourself forward with your own hand

2019-04-04 06:04:56 UTC  

you have to push off something

2019-04-04 06:05:03 UTC  

or walk

2019-04-04 06:05:06 UTC  

or swim

2019-04-04 06:05:10 UTC

2019-04-04 06:05:29 UTC  

Yes, and the gas is pushing on the rocket as it is leaving the fuel chamber.

2019-04-04 06:05:32 UTC  

ew gif compression

2019-04-04 06:05:33 UTC  

MISTER FLAPPY 😂

2019-04-04 06:05:39 UTC

2019-04-04 06:05:43 UTC  

rockets cannot push themselves forward with nothing to push off of

2019-04-04 06:05:53 UTC  

yeah they can

2019-04-04 06:05:57 UTC  

its called newtons third law

2019-04-04 06:06:08 UTC  

Well here's the video you just sent me

2019-04-04 06:06:10 UTC  

720p

2019-04-04 06:06:12 UTC  

and pushing off themselves doesn't help

2019-04-04 06:06:15 UTC  

No, Kevin. The gas is pushing on the rocket as it is leaving its tank.

2019-04-04 06:06:23 UTC  

So please look at the orb closest to the camera and explain mister flappy please @tripolarbear

2019-04-04 06:06:41 UTC  

if you push off yourself, where do you go?

2019-04-04 06:06:51 UTC  

you don't move

2019-04-04 06:06:53 UTC  

you spin

2019-04-04 06:06:57 UTC  

your not moving

2019-04-04 06:07:03 UTC  

no linear motion no

2019-04-04 06:07:05 UTC  

Kevin, the rocket is NOT pushing off of itself.

2019-04-04 06:07:05 UTC  

gasses from the rocket?

2019-04-04 06:07:06 UTC  

but angular motion yes

2019-04-04 06:07:14 UTC  

you don't spin by pushing off yourself

2019-04-04 06:07:23 UTC  

you spin by pushing off something near you to create a spin

2019-04-04 06:07:25 UTC  

Are you telling me I can't make myself spin?

2019-04-04 06:07:26 UTC  

KEVIN, the rocket is NOT pushing off of itself
