Re: Prop bet thread
Injury is a huge problem. Someone can gut out 200 push-ups towards 1000 that they probably shouldn't. They won't be able to do that once more, let alone 29 more.

lol 1k in 3 hours would be ridiculously hard [/ QUOTE ] Ya, I think so too, thats like 5.5 per minute. W/ pushups there is a a weird curve, I think a lot of people can pump out 40 straight, I think the number of people who can do 60 goes down exponentially. but, w/ little rest, you recover pretty quickly, thats why 1k in a day is pretty easy, while 100 straight is REALLY hard. |

Re: Prop bet thread
So you want to try 1k in 3 hours. Where do you live and how much are you willing to bet?

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] in another forum, 2+2er Apathy had a prop bet with Usher and Durr that he could do 1000 pushups in one 24-hour period. He made it to about 630 and quit. Irieguy has now booked the same bet....I have action against him... personally, I think it's close to impossible for 99% of the population... [/ QUOTE ] I could do this fairly easily, Im pretty sure most guys who workout pretty hard could too. The world record is like 10k pushups in a day. Thats 40 pushups per hour, if you think that 99% of people cant do this, you should def take tex's proposed bet of 500 body weight bench presses in a day. [/ QUOTE ] maybe you're right and it's easier than I think...the people doing it are degenerate gamblers who don't take care of their bodies very well, so it's VERY hard for them. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] 10,000 in one day? really?? [/ QUOTE ] Ya, I looked it up 10,400 or something like that. And yes, I agree 99.99% of degenerate gamblers could not do this, you have to be in reasonable shape to get through 1000. I think it would be trivial if you did 500 at 11pm, went to bed at 1am, after eating a carb heavy meal, and then woke up and did the rest after 10 hours of sleep. [/ QUOTE ] propbet that this isnt right? 10.5k is nonstop, 46k in 24 hours, 3.8k 1 hour, etc. http://www.recordholders.org/en/list/pushups.html [/ QUOTE ] oh. wow. woops. holy [censored]. 46,000 in one day? omg. [/ QUOTE ] Working together, I think raInKhaN and ZJ could easily do 100,000 pushups in one day. |

Re: Prop bet thread
Nate and I have a bet going about who would win in a 7 on 11 men v. women soccer match with college-level athletes. I took the women but he thinks I'm a sucker for it. Now if we could just figure out a way to arrange the action...

Re: Prop bet thread
Pete, that is a great prop, and like so many of the truly beautiful ones, can't be tested. In any case (and I have zero idea but in this case am honestly only interested in the action), I like his end!
edit: put it this way. I feel like if he had 8 it would be a lock (why I think this knowing nothing about soccer is confusing, but there it is)! |
