I have a video of AMERICA'S CUP boats that show their speed up close.
My friend Mark, the Captain of Rum Runner II said they missed the boat's bow & stern by 2 feet. (Less than a meter.)

Cosidering your a man and your mom isn't holding you back from creating a YouTube account, you can just...
Create an account, upload your vids "the rest I'm not sure about but I'm spitballing cuz u have no replies"
Add URL tags. Then multiply times four, square the answer, subtract ten, multiply this times 10 to the eight power in scientific notation, then take the reciprocal of and the additive inverse, and there you go!

Lol

So today was my first day of school and my accelerated geometry teacher taught us somethin really cool. So you take a 3 digit number without same first and last number (exp 201) you flip it. (102) than subtract the smaller one from the bigger one.(201- 102: 099) if you get 99 you put a 0 in front. Then you flip that one (990) and add them (990 + 099= 1089) everytime no matter what number if you do it right you will get 1089. Go ahead try it.

What if it doesn't equal 99?

Then don't add a zero. That was a example. That's why I said if.

The problem is now that you just said that. Putting zero in front of a number changes nothing.

When you flip it is does you need a 3 didget number if you subtract and get 99 you put a zero and then flip it and get 990

Exactly what I was going to say. Just make a Youtube account. You can't upload videos to the Dogfight website server.

Hamers, go post this in your own thread -- don't spam up someone else's.

That was exactly what you were going to say? Really?
I'm quite sure you thought it was 10 to the seventh power.

Thanks for the help everyone. Not enough memory in my phone to add another application.
I sent it to Frank. Maybe he can post on MOM thread for me.

Paul, sorry to hijack the thread with an additional off-topic post.
Hamers, I worked up the proof to your teacher's trick. Cool one. Hopefully the attachment works - I don't know how to embed an image in the post.

No problem. I think it's all figured out now.

In the magic biz we call that number stuff the magic of nines. Fun to play with.
