Fact or Myth??

[morbidmierdial]

Is it more likely to get a bounce on a fat person or skinny person?

[comando345]

:laugh:

I really doubt there are any statistics on that. I would say no, just for the sake that I have never had trouble eliminating fat people.

[Caleb98]

Probably a fat person, because of all that soft flab.

[BigTarget04]

Skinny person because they can more easily wear baggy clothes. Simply because a fat person just doesnt have the body shape to allow for much loose clothing.

I guess it'd be more likely to bounce, but on a skinny person, it'd be less likely to hit at all.

well it really doesnt give much either way, depends on what paint you shoot, this one paint i had was awesome, it broke on everything except my gun and shot extremely accurate. It broke on airball bunkers...it broke just as well on fat people as well as skinny people. But overall I would have to say skinny people get more bounces because they wear more baggy type clothing.

Why can't fat people waer baggy clothing? All they have to do is get a bigger size.

Great diagram.

Fixed, I had to read it three times to figure out what you said.

They do make them that big.

In my experience, fat people get more bounces. A guy on one of the local teams is huge, can move fast, and the only real way to eliminate him is in the gun, mask, or pack. We just can't get them to break anywhere else on him.

Even with a bigger size that belly is gonna stick out. Think of it this way if the belly is stickin out alot all of the extra fabric doesnt have anywhere to hang. and even around the belly there isnt much room for the shirt to sway. Like on a skinny person.

If you're using the right paint the fat will just engulf the ball... and then break it.

Just think of it this way. A fat person is just like being shot in the butt..... except all over. So, a fat person get breaks.....:dodgy:

i have a 6 pack and i still get bounces off it...it matters more about the layers then it does the body imo...with my baggy hoodie on i can get just as many bounces as an overweight person.

Are you saying the fat person would rather than get hit than the paintball, but eat it? :dodgy:

[BunkerBuddy_666]

:laugh: Although it would've been more funny, if it was proper english. ;)

[Jeezer]

I give you fi dalla to shh.

[3PT]

Yes, yes we do. Both like eating paint and getting bounces. Although I'm not morbidly obese, i do get a lot of bounces. Its fun cause he shoots me in the side once then i turn and shoot him 13 times..... in one second!

[wordf0o]

So its agreed upon? Fat people get the most amount of bounces, but more so love to eat paintballs.

Its all we got going for us!

[DarkeWolf]

fat is a soft, spongy, gelatinous substance. yes, its easier to get bounces off of.
my team captain is a very large man. and there's about a 35% chance its gonna bounce if it hits his torso. (Very rough estimate.)
I'm starting to grow a spare tire myself, and I took one in the gut, and in the chest. chest shot broke, the gut shot didnt.
