User blog:Gliscor Fan/Jake Long reacts to Coconuts

So basically I'm going to calc a specific portion of this scene from the Morpholomew episode of Lilo & Stitch the series, in which Stitch throws Coconuts at Jake Long.



So in this scene, Stitch uses all 4 of his arms to throw 4 coconuts at the same Time & Speed, while Jake reacts and burns them.

In the background after Jake burns them, we see a few acres of land an a house.

This is taking place on Kaua'i, which is 562.3 square miles in length (This doesn't really matter much) The area around seems to be smaller than the skate park shown earlier, and there's construction going on in the background that's about as tall as one end of the board.

This is what the skate park looks similar too:



The board itself is almost higher than the tree, so we'll take the average tree height and add 1/2th of the height to it.

The trees look most similar to Sassafras trees, which are approx. 55 feet in height. Half of 55 is 27.5, which would make the length of the skating board to about 82.5 feet.

This is approximately the distance between Jake Long and Stitch. Now, we also have to include the time it takes for the coconuts to reach Jake after being shot, which is about half a second, which is 500 milliseconds.

Multiplying 82.5 feet by 500 miliseconds roughly equates to the travel time of:

12.5730 miles per second, which is pretty much just under peak human speed times.

500 Milliseconds is the reaction time for this feat.

Therefore we can safely say that Jake Long... has better reaction feats than this.
