      Got thrown out of a bowling alley once. A friend of mine did exactly that, he was in the junior cricket team for Middlesex County at the time, and for a bet, with the last ball for the group, decided to try his cricket bowling style. It didn’t even end up in the lane he was aiming for…

    I feel sorry for the maintenance folks at that alley. It’ll take *weeks* to get the dent out of the backplate.

    And the engineering nerd in me is trying to calculate the velocity the ball left her hand at to cover that distance without hitting the ground. Math is below, but that ball was moving at least 71.8 feet per second when it left her hand. That’s about 50 mph or 80 kph.

    Let’s see, about 40 feet line to end, g=32.2 fps^2, starting 5 feet off the ground with v(y)nought=0…0.56 seconds to hit the ground, so it was doing at least 71.8 feet per second.

      And it would hit with about 1.7 kJ. I hope the backstop is sturdy…

        Having been a bowling machine mechanic for a few years, I’d be more worried about the havoc that ball is going to wreak after bouncing out the back of the machine.

    I did that to one of those stupid pink bowling balls.
    Never touched I just chucked it.

      I’m guessing the little pink ones aren’t 16 lbs. 😉
