How many 5 year-olds..... - Page 25

Typcially, when eating 5-year olds it's considered pour etiquette to rip the leg off before you eat it. As long as the leg is rigid, this shouldn't be a problem.

I think Patrick's strategy is best so far -- keeping up to speed on the perimeter picking off stragglers, mixed with sprints through the pack to break them up and delivering knees to faces.

Excuse me. This was my strategy. Except that it calls for kicks rather than knees.

I think the number is a lot less than people think, and definitely less than 30.

I agree. I heard about an 800 pound tiger getting killed by a pack of 30-40 wild dogs. I think the five year olds would have you on the ground pretty quick and that's the ballgame.

Does anybody here really think they could get knocked out by a 5 year old?? If I somehow get knocked on the ground, what is the worst thing they could do? My arms will be covering my head and If I get into a ball, there is almost nothing they could do. What is the most a 5 year old can weigh? 60 lbs??

"If I somehow get knocked on the ground, what is the worst thing they could do?"

Sit all over you pinning you down, then sit on your throat. They could certainly stop you getting back up and claim a Judo victory.

Some thoughts: I think the best way to imagine this is Zombie five-year olds. Zombies don't get frightened and are willing to take as many hits as they can before being incapacitated.

If you did it on a bouncy castle (that's what a Moonwalk is, right?) you really wouldn;t be able to take many. Those things are fairly enclosed, but more importanly you would absolutely not be able to keep your balance for very long when they threw themselves at you.

I'm taking the under on this, assuming the over/under is around 30. If a large mass of five year olds charges into your legs, it'll knock you over. If they're normal stupid frightened five year olds, its much more, but that's not hat I understand the problem to be.

I don;t think the zig-zag through the crowd would work; you'd lose momentum as more and more tried to grab your legs and you'd eventually go down.

Its my daughters birthday in May, may be the year to hire a bouncy castle invite her class round and see what games I can get going (my dauhter will be safely left in the house of course).

and, suppose you could pick any weapon, but each kid gets the same weapon. what would you choose (if anything)? I would take a 35-pound spiked elongated mace or a 45-pound broadsword.

the problem with heavy weapons is that they will tire you out swinging them, even if you are stronger-than-average. sure, the kids won't be able to lift the heavy weapons, but you've only got a limited number of swings in you, stamina-wise.

i'd take a nice aluminum baseball bat. sure, the kids will be able to lift it, but there's no way they have the strength to swing it hard enough to hurt you. and don't say they could all team up, because only a few kids can all hold it at the same time, and even then their swing would be terribly uncoordinated and weak. you could just stand there and play tee-ball with their heads all day, using the occasional kicks, etc., to deal with some of them.

[/ QUOTE ]

I've been thinking about this, and my weapon of choice would definitely be a chipper/shredder. It would get slippery, but I'm thinking I could chuck a few of the kids in there and then "aim" the small shards of flesh and bone at the eyes of the other children, blinding them. Rinse and repeat.
