The Horror-Ride

You sit in a car, driving with constant speed. Left of you there's a hill side, on your right is a fire truck driving alongside. Right in front of you there's a pig galoping, larger than your car and a few metres behind you, just above ground level, there's a helicopter chasing you.

What do you do to safely escape this situation?
Stand up.

We can't explain the universe, just describe it; and we don't know whether our theories are true, we just know they're not wrong. >Harald Lesch

Jumping out of the car could be potentially dangerous.

And no, fatal. It's a special helicopter with very short rotor blades.
Also its not a wall to your left, but a steep slope, more like a cliff. Sorry if I used the wrong word.

Regarding Nude's puzzle.

Going straight will get you owned by the pig.
Going left will get you uphill slightly, but probably not enough to escape the blades of the chopper. This really depends on the steepness of the hill.
Slowing down will get you chopped up by the blades.

Going right into the firetruck however... drive head on into the side of the firetruck near the rear wheels. Do this as "normally" (as in perpendicular to the side of the truck) as you can. And based on physics If you do this carefully and correctly, you will rotate the body of the truck towards in a counter clockwise direction, thus having the firetruck either: run into the hill, get smashed by the pig, or get chopped up by the blades. In turn you may lose control of your car and swerve off to the road somewhere on the right, but it's better than the other three consequences.

Uhm lol... I think I still haven't made myself clear. My dictionary offers another word for it: Descent.
Meaning on your left it goes DOWNwards.

Okay MA, nice try but none of these can be considered safe.

I think you guys take it too literally. It's a trick question.

Answers:
1)You dont
2) u speed up and honk the horn and the pig just moves over or something. idk something along the lines of honking the horn.
3) u speed up so much you hit the pig who is so fat and huge will soften the crash, the helicopter can pass over you but not the pig so it flies up. Who gives a shit about the fire truck, it just keeps going straight.

Devo, you're always answering the riddles you already know... its no fair.
It seems these american guys never heard of that one (It's pretty common in germany).
Could have been a lot of fun until they get it.

Thx for being lame once again...

Btw. the correct solution would have been:

You honk a lot, yell at the pig and wink to the firetruck driver. When they all stop you step out of the carousel.

A better answer would be: you wake up.

... I've never seen a helicopter on a carousel before. Dx

Well, Europe and North America have different tastes. Canada is a mix of both. :|

Symmetry -- Man I wish we had this tech back in the day when people played ums lmao

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.
[2026-7-16. : 6:26 am]
NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.

Symmetry shouted: Ohhh imagine a SC map that could delete itself
not the map, the editor

Symmetry -- I vaguely remember Voy doing some ACE back in the day, but I had no idea EUDs could do that kind of shit. I am very much catching up on the technology

Symmetry shouted: NudeRaider Is EUD editor capable of writing shit onto the player's harddrive? That seems like it would be dangerous
yeah an editor that isn't allowed to write files sounds rather pointless, so I'd assume it can. Like most other programs too btw. and yes, obviously that's dangerous, but also kinda necessary. MS introduced that virtualization for exactly that reason.

Ultraviolet -- I don't think so. I think they shut that shit down after 1.16, maybe even earlier

NudeRaider shouted: Symmetry I can't tell if it's relevant. You provided literally no context so I was providing an equally generic answer.
