Link (TP) attempts Russell Edgington's feat

Now substitute Link in place of Russell. Link starts off at the same distance Russell does with Jason patrolling the porch area. How long does it take Link to run up to and disarm Jason. Even if Jason can see Link here he is not allowed to react but more or less do the same actions he did in the video I posted.

How long does it take Link ?

I'd say about five to eight seconds. Depending.

He has to run and physically disarm him. Quit trying to avoid the thread question out of personal bias.

He could still run and use the momentum of the hookshot's draw to increase his speed.

He is not allowed to use any gear to assist him. Russell used his speed and reflexes. That is all that Link is allowed to do here.

Should you not have mentioned that stipulation beforehand?

By saying attempting his feat means he has to run up and physically do it in the same manner. Why else would I say Jason cannot see him when he'd obviously notice Link due to how slow he is coming up on him.

So what is your answer ?

That looks around 30 ft?

An athlete can accelerate to 30 ft in 2 seconds.

Incidentally Russell took 0.7 seconds, aka 13m/s speed.

That is easily 50 feet and up three steps. If you feel that is 30 feet you need your eyes checked.

Too tired to argue this, lets make it 50 ft then.

Athlete would take 2 seconds to cover 15m

This would then give Russell a speed of 21m/s

Horses have topped 24.4 m/s

Link rides Epona to victory.

He's supposed to run, apparently.

I know, but the premise of this thread is so stupid I don't care. I can't recall TP Link running in any cutscenes and he doesn't have defined travel times I can recall, unlike OoT Link for example, who can cross Hyrule in under a minute or something IIRC against the running man, or cross Hyrule field in a night as a child.

TP Link's sprint speed is unknown, /probably/ super human but who cares. Quan seems to think this will help him in the Link v.s. Russell debate, the problem he's having is grasping that speed is completely irrelevant in a fight where you can't hurt your opponent.

Edit: If Link is allowed to roll or run backwards he stomps Russell's time, though.
