Facts for Mar 1st

Jumping into the air before a plummeting elevator hits the ground will not ensure survival. Rather, the jump might delay the inevitable, but will not affect the final and fatal outcome. If the jump is perfectly timed, it is possible to reduce your speed of impact by as much as 8 km/h.

About 90% of the world's active volcanoes aer located along the Pacific Ocean, named the "ring of fire."

Or make sure that the elevator has harnesses so that the rider can be strapped to the sides of the car.

Damn Otis.....didn't think things through when he invented the elevator.

Imagine if you were riding on a "bullet" train going 100 mph.

What would happen if you were to jump in the air as the train is moving at 100 mph???

Next time the elevator that you are in starts to plummet to ground zero.....you can say " I remember reading about a situation such as this and if I time my jump correctly, I can reduce the speed of impact by 8 km/h."
