Hope she was wearing her Levi’s 1002 Blues. Probably protected her skin from abrasions.

People who take the subway have something new to worry about.

I'd sure like to have that click back  :-\

Bounced?
Yeah, I know, pot ~vs~ kettle...Maybe my extra 20+ lbs might save my life someday...

I guess she hasn’t considered that perhaps the sidewalk wouldn’t have collapsed at all if she had been a woman of a svelte 250 lbs?

[Revolting cat!]

Wow, she was 300lb yesterday and grew 100 pounds in a day!

A thinner woman wouldn’t have gone through the sidwalk in the first place.

A thinner woman might not have busted the sidewalk!

A couple who are good friends of mine stopped and prayed before driving across an area on a CO mountain pass that was prone to avalanches. They were swept off the mountain, but survived with only minor injuries, the first people to ever survive being swept into the canyon at that point. They attributed their survival to God’s intervention because they had prayed for his protection.

I pointed out that if they hadn’t stopped to pray, they would have been past the danger section before the avalanche hit.

My analysis was not particularly appreciated.

I dunno... I think I saw a demo of what happens when you drop a mouse 6 feet and what happens when you drop a cow. Something about impact force and the mass of a falling object??

I could be wrong, but as I recall, it didn't go so well for the cow...

Yikes!

[Sherman Logan]

The 400-pound Queens pedestrian who crashed through an Upper East Side sidewalk said yesterday that a thinner woman might have died from that fall.

This is not usually the case. Larger animals are in general less resistant to a fall from the same height. A mouse can walk away easily from a fall that will kill or severely injure an elephant.

why is it hollow under the freaking sidewalk?

She was just wantin’ to drop into the Blue Room.

She is a bigun though.
