K, watch the cutscene. The rock is in the air for 2 seconds, travels about 300 meters. That's actually about 150 meters per second, Guess how much I rounded down? I halfed it.

Wanna know how much the pillar weight ACTUALLY comes out to? More than 1000 tons.

because you made up a weight for the pillar with no facts to back it up

how large is large?

Fact 3. We know it's size AND composition, thus we know it's weight. Guess what? Nothing contradicts this.

you can't determine its exact weight from a bunch of pixels

you couldn't have used math, because there are no figures, unless you pulled a number out of your ass..

Alright, let's give you all a lesson in math.

To find the volume of a hexagonal prism, the shape of the pillar, we have to first find the area of a hexagon the same size as it's base. To do *that*, we need to know the length of it's side. Sooo, let's get that first!
(please log in to view the image)
Using this, we can determine that the length of a side is 10.16494845 ect.. (493/291*6) Now we use this to determine the area of the hexagonal base.

Anyone wanna try?

Hes trying to use pixels, physics and his own assumptions based on those to work out a gameplay mechanic then pass it all off as canon.....

wonderful lol...

The fact that his assumptions and limited calculations lead to the idea that Link and according to him TP link are godlike in strength which would break the whole games storyline and gameplay in general does not come into his "reasoning" (I am being sarcastic )

Yes, in the guide book. It also strongly resembles black granite, the heaviest type. but I mathed it as white granite, the lightest type.

quote:

Thousands of cubic feet in volume.

quote:

Which is why I rounded it's weight down to an INSANE extent. The figures I use are the *smallest possible*.

We can use objects in game as reference points. Also, note how much I round down, just to err on the safe side.
