Not for a bad reason, I mean, but like maybe the baby is on fire and you only have a second to punt him into a river?

Or maybe the time cops are about to rescue future Superhitler and you only have a second to punt him into a river?


There are a lot of ways this could go down, but basically you need to kick this baby. What kind of yardage could you expect, realistically?

Because it never leaves its bedroom, no one has ever seen this poster's real face.
babies are mostly liquid and I think their body would absorb a lot of the initial impact and prevent it from transferring kinetically. like how far could you punt a water balloon? after a certain amount of force it would just pop

For maximum distance of launching a baby surely the best technique would be winding up and hurling it like a discus.

Does it have to be a river, or can I punt the baby into a creek or a pond, for example?

I think I could kick a baby further with a run-up kick rather than the traditional standing drop-the-baby-and-punt style

It counts as long as 51% of the baby impacts the goal

Whenever I try to punt a football it goes straight up and then comes down onto my face so probably that

Other problems with punting with a baby it that it has a lot of weird angles. It will move kind of erratically. Also the head is really big compared to the rest of the body, so that will make it wobble, or worse the center of gravity will in the head and the rest of body will spin around.

I was thinking the same. Rather than punting it I would probably just heave it like a football.

The second OP's foot connects, the baby will latch on and just start chewing. Babies love ham and can open their jaws 120 degrees at least

It depends on the density of the baby. If it was swole and had a more firm consistency, probably decently far. If it was fat and soft, probably not far. Please give more information about the physical properties of this baby I am punting.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

We talking a controlled "laces out" situation or are we talking self defense?

If the latter, you want as much distance between you and the baby, so screaming "FIVE SECOND RULE" would be key to distracting and confuse observers while you break contact with your baby attacker.

About as far as I can punt a real football, probably.








Which is to say, negative one yards if the wind is favorable. And I'll probably pull something and dislocate something else and probably rupture my spleen.
