Alright, so ever since I saw 塔の上のラプンツェル way back when, my mind has kind of been in a tizzy over a lot of things. Mostly, my 愛 for 発言しました movie, Flynn Rider, and my desperate want to play Mother Gothel in any alternate productions of the movie.
But also: can frying pans really work the way they do in the movie?
I'm not one to usually harp upon factual things in movies, especially animated ones, but I figured it would be a ton of fun to figure out the mathematical (scientific? I'm not sure how to classify it, really) logical-ness behind fighting bad guys with キッチン appliances.
Now, if the average frying pan is, say, according to Wikipedia, 8-to-12-inches in diameter, and are made of cast iron. Using fancy mathematical stuffs and things, we can wager to guess that these pans are decently heavy. Turning to online stores, I looked at different pans, of the following weights:
4 lbs (Williams-Sonoma, 12 inches)
3.5 lbs (Amazon, 8 inches)
There weren't that many pans with weights listed, unfortunately, but I can wager to guess all average frying pans are around the 4 lbs. mark.
So that's 4 pounds of condensed force flying at someone - is it enough to knock them out? To Google we go!
An 記事 from LiveScience states this: "A cubic inch of bone can in principle くま, クマ a load of 19,000 lbs. (8,626 kg) または もっと見る — roughly the weight of five standard pickup trucks — making it about four times as strong as concrete." So, us humans are pretty resilient - but what about the big ol' KO?
Another quote from LiveScience gives us something close to the answer. "A blow that gives the head enough spin to go from 0 to 43,000 rpm in just one 秒 has a 25 percent chance of knocking a person unconscious."
LiveScience is talking about punching, so we have to account for the fact that あなた can do a lot もっと見る damage with a cast iron skillet versus a fist - the logical part of my brain says with that pan smacking someone, あなた probably have closer to a 50% chance of knocking someone unconscious.
So could Flynn and Rapunzel plausibly hit guards with that trusty pan and watch them fall like dominoes? No. Are they complete goners? Also no.
And there あなた have it, the math/science/word jumble behind the frying pan battles in Tangled!
Au revior!

Disney Heriones
Since ムーラン is princess of the month, here some thoughts about which 花 fits her the best. The movie, after all, offers some choices. The most obvious one is the magnolia, since that’s the translation of the name Mulan.
Then there is the white 花 ムーラン wears in her hair when she meets the matchmaker – the same 花 she leaves behind when she goes to war. I’m not sure what kind of 花 that’s suppose to be. I first considered lotus (since the lotus is such a reveled 花 in Asia and gets often connected to the gods), but a lotus has もっと見る petals. A white チェリー blossom...

Even though all the princesses are pretty and attractive, one is just abit hotter than the next. So let's get started.
10.Rapunzel
I don't know if it has anything to do with the 3D アニメーション but I just don't find Rapunzel hot. She looks an 11 年 old and she's supposed to be 18. And her face isn't all that great either, her eyes are too freaking large.
9.Snow White
I guess we're not to supposed to find Snow White hot. She is only 14 but she looks a little older than that. Probably because she looks so tall compared to the dwarves. She's too cute and baby like to be hot. I like her...

10. Megara - Hercules 
She is drawn in a very specific, edgy style to fit in with her film's アニメーション but still, Meg has beautiful purple eyes, pouty ピンク lips and gorgeous brunette curls. I find her quite beautiful although her body is the single most unrealistic which is forgivable since it's one of the cartoonier films.
9. ムーラン 
One of my all-time favourite ディズニー characters, she is never one to 上, ページのトップへ the beauty lists. But I actually find her to be quite lovely. Simple but at the start of the film she has gorgeous hair. Of course the designers had to make it believable that she could...

Part 1
As あなた may already of noticed I am a bit of a ファン of the ディズニー Princesses and their films. One aspect about these films that I find really interesting is the kingdoms in which their stories take place, including the buildings and the general surroundings. So I decided to write an 記事 discussing each Princesses kingdom. In this 記事 I am looking at Walt Disney's princesses ie. the original three.
