Tell them it's the express line to Mars, but that the government doesn't want them to ride it without a safety inspection being done on it to make sure it adheres to regulations. Watch how fast they volunteer to get splattered like this dumb dead fuck.

"how far can a trebuchet throw A BILLIONAIRE THAT WEIGHS 170 POUNDS ON AVERAGE.

We can find out
CheeseCoffeeChests
Who cares? Launch em
lackinglife
Simply gather them all and tell them whoever goes the furthest keeps their money and watch them do the setup themselves
KinetoPlay
Hell, tell them whoever goes the furthest gets everyone else's money. It's not like it'll matter at that point, and it'll make those greedy bastards drool.

Wouldn't it be funny if... memes like this got people Googling all kinds of queries regarding billionaires?
"How many billionaires can you stuff inside a Titan sub?" "What's the best way to starve a billionaire?" "If you dox a billionaire, is it considered a crime?" "What billionaires are the least philanthropic?" "What billionaires have paid the least taxes for their bracket?" "If you drop a billionaire in the ocean, will they float?" 😏😉🤪
kimwimgoddess
Why do you think I instantly googled this?
squillis
"You're all fireeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeDD-"
skyfishgur
what do you call 5 billionaires in a trebuchet? ... a good start.

more fun and less mess than a guillotine.
Asifyourereadingthisanyway
Likely around 300m/ ~1000ft. More quality research is needed to confirm.
Canigetbannedagain2
That's just the first step, the landing is in a minefield, tune into next week's adventures for part two.

zebraImaginationDog
Not far enough
duffman3335
No, I'd say, far enough.
circlebreaker
To be fair, it's not so much how far they go, but how hard they hit when they land. Even 100 ft. with a peak height of 150 ft. would do just fine... gravity's a cruel Mistress on the way back down.
choppedliveraldente
You don't know that. Its all a guess until you gather data.
Mithi
Why would you say that? The question is asked to know how far the distance between two trebuchets has to be so we can slingshot the ... test dummies ... back and forth.
ironymus
well it's not the flight that is thrilling. It's the landing
OmnibusLatinName
With good material science, I think we can make stable orbit.
BeardicPerformance
It’ll carry them through their whole life. How much further do you want?
Jamesstin
We should make reverse guillotines by anchoring the billionaires with their feet in concrete then setting up a trebuchet next to them that has its swingarm attached by rope around their neck. So you just launch the trebuchet and POP goes the weasel!
Darkspire
We can really get creative
CooCooCaChew
But still worth running the experiments
imgurianitarian
For science.
Elonth
I think we can collect the most valuable data if we start at the top of the wealth list and work our way down.
lonelyrangerofthedreams
Better use a space rocket to be sure is not remains on the planet.
Cleaner for the environment.
toshach33
Just to the other side of the tracks.
eion85
Pumpkin Chunkin is just good practice for launching other orange things as far as we can.
ItAintAllitsCrackedUpToBe
Don't need distance, just speed + something solid to initiate sudden deceleration will do
eion85
Well, the distance is about competition. After all, we want to see who can toss theirs the furthest.
ItAintAllitsCrackedUpToBe
Ok, I'll give you that. As long as there's something exceedingly pain inducing at the landing area
ShearingBlizzard
It can launch them all the way to the crash site!
mikeatike
Dont trust google with this. We must test it.
Antrobus55
Or Mars. Don't much care if he or she is alive when they get there, either.
Harm
It would only move the problem (by about 300m I'd say).
imreallytrying
What happens if the billionaires legs are tied/anchored to the ground and arms anchored to the bolder when its launched?
Felcomic
You would have to put them in some kind of a container first as they would just spray all over the place at launch, because of what they are made of.
nomadengineer
Gonna depend on how big the trebuchet is and how fat the billionaire is. Experiments are required.
Skuggen
Well it's hard to say, because they come in a wide range of sizes.
elucca
Sounds like we need enough experiments for a good sample size.
ironymus
A trebuchet doesn't care about that.
cabalin
Doesn’t hare to be far, just directly against a wall
sevenfingerman
This post is satire, but with enough us, it doesn’t have to be. Start googling.

Got it by "how far can a tr"
StillScreamingIntoTheVoid
I only had to reach the t in trebuchet before it auto completed. I needed that. Gonna go do that a couple more times.
FrancsTireur
The average american male weighs 199.8 Lbs or 90.6 KG, Billionaires tend to be on the fat side so call it 250 lbs so 113.3 KG.
That puts the average billionaire just slightly north of the average weight propelled accurately by a standard medieval trebutchet, their loads typically being between 50 and 150 KG.
At that weight you could accurately throw a billionaire 300 ish meters directly into a fortress wall or battlement.
Certain trebutchets built larger, usually for particularly 1/
FrancsTireur
Significant sieges like the Warwolf for the siege of Sterling castle or God's own sling and Bad neighbour for the siege of Acre, could hurl anywhere from 300kg to 900kg, allowing you an average of 4.8 billionaires per volley. 2
FrancsTireur
Just so we're clear, if you dont technically care for the accuracy of your billionaires, you could aim out to about 500 meters.
Filanwizard
Into the cooling towers of their data centers.
Ch4osAngel6
Up to 300 yards for 200 pounds so since he is declared at 243 , 300 yards seems average .
Toqom
We talking trump or musk?
Ch4osAngel6
The measurement are for Trump .

That's not a question Google can answer. It's a question that requires actual science. Actual experiments. Or at least the Mythbusters.

It does try to answer it tho ... and as much as I hate Google tacking it's AI to the top of every search... This time it made me laugh.

We won't know the exact numbers until we try people, let's do it for science, let's do it for our future!
IfOnlyICouldUseMyPowersForGood
We need to generate some empirical evidence!
