This is the funniest thread that I've ever seen before.

Ever shot a cat with a bow and arrow?

How about a kitten with a bb gun?

Oh, uh, just asking.

[cockerkiller68]

Bow and arrow...that gives me an idea!! What if you shot a cat out of something at, let's say, 20 mph, 30 mph etc. Would it land on the wall on it's feet or sideways?

Then we could test how fast a cat could hit the wall and survive. 70 mph...then 80...and so on until we reach about 140 mph. If the cat could survive at 140mph, we should try and use cat DNA to create a super human Paratrooper. Imagine 1000 Paratroopers traveling 140mpg straight into the ground, getting up and kicking your arse.

Have you studied human anatomy?

I think a woman that can purr would cause quite an uproar in the community.

Imagine sports...Professional sports would never be the same!!

I tried but I was off by about two feet because it ran, must have seen the arrow comming.

My nieghbors cat got shot with a pellet gun does that count?

Yes, aside from their natural ability to survive falls traveling around 120mph (that's about terminal velocity isn't it?) cats are also impervious to things such as being hit with other heavy objects traveling at high speeds, being crushed, and burning jet fuel.

Seriously, read the thread then use your head before I come to the conclusion that you don't have one.

OK I'm confused. That article thing said that cats reach terminal velocity at like 4 floors. So in other words... a cat can survive anything above four floors, since it will be moving the same speed no matter where it falls above four floors. So I said "awesome" and got confused when you said that so can humans. I was pretty sure that you were kidding, and I obviously knew that it wasn't so in EVERY case but I thought you might have known about some severely obscure event in which people have survived a huge fall. And before you say I didn't read the thread, it said above that a cat's terminal velocity is like 60 mph. My earlier post was kinda messed up- I should have separated my cat comments from my human comments.

Think about what else happens in a plane crash besides just hitting the ground...
Humans have been known to survive falling when their parachute fails although not in every case. Not all cats would survive either and all of them would be severaly injured.

For what?????

[matmc89]

my science teacher has killed 94 people

[SAW]

For what?????

Think acronyms.

[Crighton]

Wasn't there a russian tzar who tossed a couple hundred cats off of a tower in hopes of publishing a scientific paper on his findings?
