Alright, so ever since I saw Rapunzel - L'intreccio della torre way back when, my mind has kind of been in a tizzy over a lot of things. Mostly, my Amore for detto movie, Flynn Rider, and my desperate want to play Mother Gothel in any alternate productions of the movie.
But also: can frying pans really work the way they do in the movie?
I'm not one to usually harp upon factual things in movies, especially animated ones, but I figured it would be a ton of fun to figure out the mathematical (scientific? I'm not sure how to classify it, really) logical-ness behind fighting bad guys with cucina appliances.
Now, if the average frying pan is, say, according to Wikipedia, 8-to-12-inches in diameter, and are made of cast iron. Using fancy mathematical stuffs and things, we can wager to guess that these pans are decently heavy. Turning to online stores, I looked at different pans, of the following weights:
4 lbs (Williams-Sonoma, 12 inches)
3.5 lbs (Amazon, 8 inches)
There weren't that many pans with weights listed, unfortunately, but I can wager to guess all average frying pans are around the 4 lbs. mark.
So that's 4 pounds of condensed force flying at someone - is it enough to knock them out? To Google we go!
An articolo from LiveScience states this: "A cubic inch of bone can in principle orso a load of 19,000 lbs. (8,626 kg) o più — roughly the weight of five standard pickup trucks — making it about four times as strong as concrete." So, us humans are pretty resilient - but what about the big ol' KO?
Another quote from LiveScience gives us something close to the answer. "A blow that gives the head enough spin to go from 0 to 43,000 rpm in just one secondo has a 25 percent chance of knocking a person unconscious."
LiveScience is talking about punching, so we have to account for the fact that te can do a lot più damage with a cast iron skillet versus a fist - the logical part of my brain says with that pan smacking someone, te probably have closer to a 50% chance of knocking someone unconscious.
So could Flynn and Rapunzel plausibly hit guards with that trusty pan and watch them fall like dominoes? No. Are they complete goners? Also no.
And there te have it, the math/science/word jumble behind the frying pan battles in Tangled!
Au revior!

I got Wendy :)Pretty well done quiz
te are Wendy. Wendy is a girl who talks più than she breathes. However, there's always a treasure somewhere between what her cousin did last anno and who her preferito actor is. She is the girl te can ask to take out the trash, and she would talk your ear off for an hour. However, Wendy is a caring girl who will one giorno be an ideal mother. Her passion for storytelling keeps her younger Friends captivated until "The End" and she knows it. She doesn't flaunt her talent, though. She is a humble girl with morals. te may have trouble getting a boy friend simply due to your talkative nature, but stop trying and someone will catch te in their net. Your marriage will be one of class, and even though te probably have never thought about doing anything against the rules, te are not against the idea if it strokes your desire for adventure.

Since I am trying to make the Princess Of The mese più popular, this is another one of my ideas. In the end of each mese I'll post articles, based on the countdowns for songs, hairstyles and outfits. There everybody will have the chance to discuss whether they agree with the results, what corresponded to their expectations, and what they wish would have been different!
I was recently informed that the problem with the pictures in the articoli is gone, and now the pictures can be put inside the text. However, I'm going to continue using mainly pictures for my articles, because first of all, that's what I've been doing for the rest of the articoli from these series, and second, I like this way of doing articles! So maybe at some point I will switch back to the explanatory and sophisticated words articles, but for the time being I will stick to my picture articles!
Here are the results of the POTM Hairstyles Countdown: ~*Pocahontas*~ (May 2013)! Enjoy and share your opinion!

Since the last time I wrote this articolo my lista has changed a bit and I also decided to write this articolo again so that I could include Anna and Elsa. Also want to point out none of these screencaps are from disneyscreencaps.com, I found them on Disney Wiki so I don't know their original sources
13. Tiana
I like Tiana despite having her as my least preferito Disney Princess, but she's a person that I'm not striving after being più like and of course I can't relate to her at all except we both have a passion for food, other than that we're each others opposites and I find Tiana too realistic...

With Frozen less than a mese away, I figured I should do this before we add them into the mix of things. It took me quite a while to get this together and I'm not completely positive of my superiore, in alto 4.
11. Cenerentola (Previously 11)
I'm just not a fan. Lots of people find her stunning, but not me. /; Her eyes and mouth kinda creep me out a little. I don't even think she has a nose, it's that invisible o-o A lot of her wardrobe I like though, especially her wedding dress which is my preferito of all time.♥
