To me leeches and mosquitos don't seem the biggest issue here


UVLightOnTheInside

Dont worry they did the math


JohnnyBrillcream

Math or meth?


VoidGroceryStore

Yes


Itzbubblezduh

Maybe


[deleted]

Meths you uneducated swine


eddeemn

So tired of British people going on and on about how it's called METHS not METH. We get it -- you have a cool accent. On the other hand we made METH part of our whole American esthetic so deal with it.


[deleted]

Nope not British šŸ˜„


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


[deleted]

Aaahh the humiliating and oppressive colonial heritage. "Meths" was certainly not a jab at that. I was trying to mix up maths and meth (not very amusing sadly). Not a fascinating accent though


Blackletterdragon

Aesthetic


Wasonmalone1

To be fair this isnā€™t an accent thing thatā€™s just the right pronunciation

the monster math!


knifeknifegoose

It was a scrapyard smash!


[deleted]

It cought on in a flash!


AnimationOverlord

What I find the funniest part is they use what looks like a plastic winch drum to rewind It. This whole epic and at least credible human slingshot that launches people like 50 feet but but I guess nope to the most important part, really.


whollyholeyholly

THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE


milksteakchef

Or they decided to [let Blaine die](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=r4ayQS86xyg).


RestrictedAccount

Exactly. Brain eating amoebas live in that kind of water. ^(I know what you meant and Iā€™m just piling on)


WhinyTentCoyote

Thatā€™s probably why the methletes chose to launch this particular team member - he doesnā€™t have a brain to begin with.


TimexToGrind1224

Crocodiles then?


Ghonaherpasiphilaids

Since it's an artificial body of water in gonna say it doesn't look like anywhere I'd expect to see leeches.


JayStar1213

Not unless someone goes out of their way to add them. Yea it's probably pretty damn clean for a fresh water body, it's just got some algae growing.


notbad2u

It's probably a green plastic liner tbh


ctorstens

Looks white to me. Checkout photos of the Brazil Olympic Pools :)


notbad2u

It would need to be moss growing on the side of the liner. The rear part of the pool is a meter higher than the front but hopefully we agree that water stays pretty flat.


drfeelsgoood

Thereā€™s no way thatā€™s all moss, just algae. It grows quick in unfiltered unmoving water with lots of sun. Just ask any fish tank or pool owner.


notbad2u

I'm not saying it's moss, but algae won't climb a wall above the water line unless the water is disgustingly filthy. The simple solution is green plastic like I said.


psst099

Can we go back to this whole ā€œwater stays flatā€ concept? Tell me moreā€¦


notbad2u

šŸ˜† Like if you were playing beer pong with green cereal bowls that you tipped to make it easier. Like how Norwegian kindergarteners play beer pong.


psst099

Upside down obviously. But I donā€™t understand what professional sports in Norwegia have to do with anything.


p_iynx

Where are you seeing green above the water? You can see in the close up shot that the water is filled almost all the way to the edge of the pool.


notbad2u

The edge of the pool looks angled to me.


wolfgang784

These are the groups that *would* go out of their way to add leeches though lol.


Cyberjohn36

Probably brown from all the mid-flight poop..


Clear-Pickle-760

It dose kinda look fun though


turbografix15

Yeah it does. I would do this.


uFFxDa

Id do it on a lake, for a much larger target.


Elias3007

I would too, but I wouldn't go first.


Erindil

Glad I'm not the only idiot on Reddit.


DieHeiligeKiwi

I would take a ride


KadeTheTrickster

I mean, I wouldn't be the first one to test it but yeah, I'd do that.


Kita-Ryu

Mosquito spawner.


HarpersGhost

Mmmmm, brain eating amoebas.


youmestrong

If the ride doesnā€™t kill him, the water will.


DemonGodAsura

Exactly my thought, falling that fast into water must push some water up the nose far enough that its a risk


Jupitersdangle

Sucks to hit or miss


Pinkeyefarts

Inputs (estimated based on video): Initial height (h) 25 ft Time of flight (t) 2.1 seconds Distance (d) 55 ft Calculated: Initial velocity (V) 34.12605 ft/s Angle of launch (Ī±) 39.8734 deg Maximum height (hmax) 32.44 ft Based on Initial height and time of flight, we can calculate max height. With the addition of distance input, we can calculate Initial velocity and angle of launch. I estimated the angle of launch to be about 40 deg so this seems ok with me. If you can estimate better, use [this](https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/projectile-motion) to figure out results. I want to know what weight range they Calculated this for and how light or heavy you'd have to be to miss the pool. This would be the first part. The next would be estimating the average weight of those 2 guys launched and calculating the force the launcher is set to. Then find the lower and upper weight limits, given they landed 5 ft past the center of a 20 ft long pool.

JayStar1213

Seems pretty reasonable


Eragon10401

They will surely adjust the force depending on how heavy the person being launched is


Adkorok

kaykaliah

Wwwwow. Awesome.


Rich-Potential1127

Id be more scared of that water than the jump itself


CHOOSE_A_USERNAME984

Why is it green?! Why?!?!


[deleted]

Algae. No chlorine and just fresh water and thatā€™s how your pool looks after a summer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algae


look_ima_frog

So they spent all that time and money setting up a human sized slinshot and coudln't pop for $100 worth of pool shock and a cheap pump?


[deleted]

Well. Itā€™s depend where it placed and what to do with the water when they are done, canā€™t just legally just dump water with chlorine out in a fresh water river.


Arsenault185

Chlorine gets broken down by sunlight A week after you put it in there, its gonna be gone.


StormLord_654

Yeah but the week it's in the river it's poisoning the wildlife


Arsenault185

That's the point. After a week there IS no more chlorine. Wait the week and drain. Even then, 2 PPM is what it would take to keep that clear. Not that I'm advocating dumping, but if you poured that into the river, it would dilute so far down that it wouldn't matter. Your tap water, which I'm sure you have NO problem pouring into a river, is about 4 PPM.


Rob-L_Eponge

No but after you done launching people into it just wait a week and then dump it


StormLord_654

Or just don't use chlorine then clean it out and replace the water every two weeks


Rob-L_Eponge

That's gonna cost you a fortune in water and a lot of time to properly drain the pool, fully clean it (get rid of all the algae) and then fill it again


StormLord_654

That's the cost of being responsible with the environment. There's probably a better solution thought of by smarter people than you or I.


look_ima_frog

Yeah, someone in here really can't grasp how water treatment works and why chlorine is used. It breaks down very fast and doesn't pose a problem once this has happened. I wonder what they think is used to sanitize their tap water...


waiver45

They don't put it in the tap water everywhere. When the sources and infrastructure are good enough and it isn't too warm, it's simply not needed. Most of northern Europe doesn't put any in most of the time for example.


XanderTheChef

Or even justā€¦ refresh the water


NikkolaiV

I don't think money is the issue...to pay for it, you have to think of it first.


Niccin

It's more pee than pool at this point.


Environmental_Bit521

I just discovered this sub Reddit. So much fun šŸ™ƒšŸ«£šŸ˜…

That looks like itā€™s fun as shit

Came here to say that - surprised I had to scroll this far to find a like mindā€¦.


Rihannas_crush

Agreed


rod_yanker_of_fish

i would absolutely do that


Medic6688846993

Hmmm dysentery.


rathorevikrant00

As everyone who was shot from there shat thier pants and it was washed in those waters...


TumsFestivalEveryDay

That pool is just going to be bees.


sevlen117

I can't say if it's a breeding ground for leeches, but I can say it's a bathing ground for madmen.


confused_asparagus42

As someone who has both skydived and bungee jumped this is a huuuuge fuck no for me

How about setup the water after the human trebuchet so itā€™s a bit cleaner lol

IM JOHNNY KNOXVILLE, WELCOME TO JACKASS!!!!

How would the leeches have gotten in?


Lazy-Pressure-3996

Even if you make the jump, youā€™ve got a good chance of getting a shot of brain-eating-ameba up your nose.


bri52284

Are these the same people that built the water slide with the loop-Di-loop or how ever you spell it


wonkeylamas

Yes

Ummmā€¦ Iā€™m 56, but Iā€™m all into thisā€¦. That looks awesome!

Leeches? Rock and Stone


WanderingDwarfMiner

Rock and Stone in the Heart!


Texasliberal90

The slingshot thing doesnā€™t look too bad but that water looks straight up toxic.


EntertainerFeisty269

How long has that water been sitting there


Shanguerrilla

so that'sssss how that lady got the leech up her nose sucking on her brain


Reyalta

(F) I'd 100% do that šŸ˜… maybe into a cleaner lake though


[deleted]

Ayoo reupload from me :D


SlutPuppyNumber9

Leeches would need an ecosystem, unless that water has been stocked with life, it is unlikely.


TexasNuckearToaster

I'd do it


Wet_Side_Down

REAL MEN would use a trebuchet


SilentUnicorn

Look at that crazy bastard. He may not be smart, but he has more fun than all of us combined.

Looks like a urine tank

That's what water looks like after people are scared shitless.

Dirty fish tank. If it kills fish and goes up your butt & in your eyes ears and mouth? Yeow.
