What if you were hit by a kamehameha

A cool You Tube video looking at what would happen if you were hit my a Kamehameha, from a physics angle, similar to the 'What if Superman punched you' video.

Wow physics way to show how lucky the DBZ universe works the way it does...and how lucky we are not to have the Kamehameha technique and its variations.

Cool video. But I have no idea how he came to the conclusion that SSJ4 Gogeta had BP of 25,000,000,000. I'm not OCD about Battle Power's but even I know that's really wrong.

Yeah he's wrong on that one. Perhaps he multiplied the 2 billion whatever fo Gogeta in V-Jump by a made up SSJ4 Multiplier to get that number.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Honestly, I don't think it matters what his supposed power level is. What matters is that x100 Big Bang Kamehameha would completely obliterate the Solar System and then some, though I can't help but wonder what would happen to the one who fired the blast?

I'd rather be hit by a genki dama. Then I can at least hope that I'm pure of heart.

"Your body would become as hot as the sun for a few nanoseconds, before your atoms fly apart"

In the "physics" of DB, Kamehamehas aren't actually that hot, are they? They don't even significantly increase in brightness based on powerlevel; a Taiyoken, for example, is always brighter. Mr.Satan never got flash burns from seeing ki blasts.

Rather than trying to conform DB to real life physics, it probably makes more sense to just find consistent internal rules, because series incidentally establish their own "physics" purely through world building.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

The whole point of the video is to talk a bit about what would happen if they were real, not what would happen to an average person from the DB universe inside the DB universe.

But my point is that DB physics don't work that way, and the kamehameha doesn't act like that, so if you were to pull it into the real world, it would NOT be burning people so much. The video is really about what would happen if you were hit by something that could destroy the moon or a supernova. The DB stuff is just to appeal to fans. More realistic series could be analyzed in this way, but not DB, unless you ignore tons of stuff. It's too cartoonish.

So, no fun allowed. :lol:

It doesn't work line that because its not real. But if it was real, aka the whole point of the video, it would work more or less like the video describes.

what about the huge crater that genki dama makes? assuming that the ground would also be pure of heart doesn't stop it from being completely obliterated. being pure of heart only would ease the blow or prevents genki dama from taking its full advantage of the evil heart. but it doesn't necessary make someone invisible from being completely hurt by genki dama.

Of course he makes fun of Yamcha...

Anyway, to think when we were little that we had always wanted to do a Kamehameha wave... Only to find out that it'd launch us backward into the solar system if we were to try it, with a Big Bang Kamehameha being able to destroy our solar system and more with just one use.

Well Gohan was able to deflect it because he was pure of heart. Maybe someone else could do the same.
