I don't know what catagory to put this question in. I just picked "Travel", because that is what was supposed to happen (but didn't!).
OK. A guy friend from school told me that if you stand in the aisle at the front end of one of the San Diego trolly cars while it is going, and if you jump up in the air 7 times in a row, you will end up at the other end of the trolley car. He explained that this happens because the trolley is moving forward down the tracks while you are in the air, so when you come down after 7 jumps you will be at the other end of the trolley. I was curious, and wanted to try it for myself, and I did when I finally went with him one day on a trolley car that was not very crowded.
I did jump 7 times, but I was still in the same spot exactly. The only thing that happened is I looked pretty stupid to the few passengers. My friend just laughed, and said that It didn't work out because I "didn't do it right"!! Huh!?
Who was more stupid.....me or my friend?
