At stop lights, riders could start flapping the doors by opening and closing real quick to generate extra energy. Like a wind-up toy.

The second gererator just stopped and there arn't enough magnets to go around. Fortunately I've been trained in the LAWS OF PHYSICS.....

You could, ........but it's not required as once you "store" energy it springs eternal, have I taught you nothing?

When the plane hits the ground, we have to all jump up in the air at exactly the same time, thereby negating the effect of gravity (same principle as the gererator) ...

What is wrong with you people? You can't jump up and negate gravity!!!

If both gererators stop, you just stand in the doorway of the airplane and wait patiently. When it's a foot or so from horribly crashing into the ground, you simply step off. The plane crashes, you walk away.

Sheesh! The actual physics involved in all that is clearly explained in Saturday morning cartoons.

now you're beeing silly

everybody knows that in cartoons, the victim always crashes, leaving a hole in the ground, shaped like whatever came crashing down... then the image fades or cuts away, and then whoever crashed, appears perfectly ok with a new plan for whatever he wants to achieve, or the the subject climbs out of the hole with little stars or bluebirds circling his head

either way , in cartoons, nobody who is coming down for a crash, escapes the crash, except Muttley...

Nope, nothing silly here.

I saw the Road Runner do it with my own eyes.

Road Runner is ghey and a liberal. Gravity is Bush's fault.

Gravity only takes effect if you look down too. If you walk off the edge of a cliff and keep looking straight ahead you'll be fine. Once you look down, it's freefall time.

Just don't look down.

Wiley E. Coyote sez so. He's an expert on this stuff too.

My favorite saying on the golf course when faced with an impossible shot:
"I saw this on a cartoon once, I think I can pull it off".
