Wonder how much damage to the lower wing?

On a side note, a human enaging in "cow tipping" is nothing more than an urban legend and those that claim to do it can never provide any photo or video evidence of the deed.  Physics pretty much debunks it.

No, really, man-powered cowtipping is impossible (without too many people for the cow not to notice).

I heard it may cause them to stampede through several fence lines. I can't say more because I'm not sure on the statute of limitations and if it's still a hanging offense here.

Ack- Ack is correct.  A heffer can weight 600-800 lbs, mother cow can weight around 1000 lbs.  But it all depends on the breed of the cow too.  And Ack-Ack, as you put it, physics debunks it.  :aok

They can be a bunch of buzzkills.

But BiPolar is right. It was a cow, and it did tip over, did it not?

Looks like it donut end was facing the plane, maybe a little more into the plane.  The wing hit it's lift hide or side leg.

It was a loss of power after take off with added beef. Here's the accident report.

http://www.aaib.gov.uk/publications/bulletins/december_2008/dh82a_tiger_moth__g_ahvv.cfm

Here's the video with commentary. They both demonstrated quite a lot of British stiff upper lip considering what happened. But it turns out the front seat passenger was a decorated WW2 veteran RAF Mosquito pilot and this wasn't his first incident.

But it does prove cow tipping is possible.

My uncle owned a large dairy farm in upstate NY. Since he had 1500 acres of land, we'd always party in some remote corner with a keg of beer. One night, couple of my buddies on the football team got into the conversation about cow tipping and decided to try it.

Despite me telling them not to, they tried. It was absolutely hilarious to watch. First off, most milk cows don't sleep standing up. Many will go into a very relaxed state after they eat, as it helps with digestion. Many people assume they're sleeping, but they're not.

Anyway, 240lb. defensive lineman runs broadside into a 1200lb Holstein. It was like running into a brick wall. Leveled him. To add insult to injury, the cow turned on him and stepped on his leg, breaking it.

Having spent most of my childhood on a farm, I've never seen it happening.

Course, I never saw a cow hit my an aircraft, either.

That brings up a question.  Why does it always feel better to pee on something (fence, bush, tree, etc.) than to just hit the ground?  Anybody have an answer?

It's been a few years but in Al's case, I'm not sure he knew he was peeing on anything in the pitch dark.   That is until the blue/white arc traveled up the stream of pee and into his body.

Mythbusters said..... highly unlikely.



I think some folks prefer peeing on something instead of the ground because their inability to aim well precludes anything too far away.
Title: Re: Cow tipping?
Post by: Dichotomy on November 02, 2010, 03:02:31 PM
I don't know about that.  When there's snow on the ground it's a much better target.

Actually they said highly unlikely for getting electrocuted  by the third rail of a subway train.  They tested both and found the fence thing to be plausible.
In any event, I saw it happen.  I was looking in the general direction, and to this day, can still see the 12 inch or so arc of light in my minds eye.  Then Al was laying on the muddy ground, unhurt relatively speaking, but peeing all over himself.(in the fews seconds of stunned silence, we could actually hear his pee landing on him.)  I'll never forget it.
 It took him several seconds to say anything intelligble. I remember falling to my knees, howling with laughter. I crack up just picturing it in my mind.

LOL!

Unlike cow tipping, tank tipping is quite possible with as little as two men.  The only problem I see is that you'd have to be pretty quiet to sneak up on the tank and flip it before it's aware of what is happening.  Unlike a cow, a pissed off tank can be quite deadly.

Never got the concept of cow tipping, or rather, the idea of p*ssing off something that weighs in excess six times as much as a person if not more... Just always seemed like a bad idea to me.
