High Speed Video of Flipping Cats | Smarter Every Day 58 (Cute Cat vs Physics)

Whoever says the cats could have got hurt or were uncomfortable doesn't own a normal, healthy cat. A regular cat can survive falls of up to 6m (almost 20ft) without any damage whatsoever. Oh, and while holding a cat upside down by its limbs might not be the most comfortable, the combination of their light weight and amazing joints means they barely register any discomfort. They just don't like being held upside down

I tried this with the neighbors cat and it didn't land on its feet -- maybe because I was throwing it.

There are many reasons why people choose to believe in a higher authority such as God. Don't start a flame war over this and stop assuming religion = christianity. A rational life is one without bias and one that looks logically into all options. Science and religion are two branches of philosophy. Criticizing one without learning the reasoning and scientific meaning behind verses is just plain arrogance. Bear in mind that if one religion doesn't add up, surely others will.

Oh, so now you people are against animal abuse?

Fine. Turn off your computer then, and go to a lab that uses animals for experiments, because they are the ones abusing (and often killing) animals. This dude did nothing wrong.

I'm not the one who's unobservant here. That cat did not let out a "painful meow". You've obviously never owned a cat, because if you had then you'd know that a cat will cry bloody murder when it's hurt. That cat was not hurt.

1:13 it looks like a ninja cat *w*

"hey dumb fuck" its an animal and they didn't kill it or anything so go fuck yourself if you don't like then fucking leave no one needs and idiot here.

Oddly enough, it gets better. A healthy cat can survive falls from up to 13 stories.

They get hurt from heights like that, but very rarely suffer serious injuries from it. The theory is that a cat's terminal velocity is only 60 miles per hour, which w hen combined with it's low body weight, effectively means that you can throw a cat out of a plane and it'll be fine when it hits the ground.

Wonderful animals.

Cat physics = best video I've evern seen.

What I want to know is... who's teachin these cats physics? Smart as hell!

Ok ok..... He is not abusin the cat...but he dropped her from high height and why hold the legs?y didnt u hold the body plus u needed soft something to land her on
