Pace Bend park is one of our favorite places!!!

This jump is called Pale Face, and it basically is just outside of Austin, TX. The water level in Lake Travis can fluctuate 40' between rainy and drought conditions. I have measured this jump at 60' in the past. But today it was 50.

  • @ MrBrandonod: At least that makes perfect sense.....

  • Holy smokes! That is epic!!

  • that is not 50 feet

  • @ihavetopoop2000

    Why all the haters? I measured the cliff with a rope and tape measure when we were out there. It was pretty much exactly 50 on that day. lol.

  • where is this location - directions

  • @HoustonsOriginal @The cliff is in Pace Bend Park, a Travis County park, southwest of Austin, TX. The cliff faces East and is about in the middle of the park.

    Good luck finding it!

  • actually, the time it takes him to hit the ground will not be affected by the outwards velocity, because the horizontal component of motion in a single plane when referring to the acceleration due to gravity in the vertical has no effect whatsoever on the vertical displacement, it will however change the total displacement from point A to point B, but this will just give the resultant displacement which is the distance from where he jumps to the he hits the water.

  • @ihavetopoop2000 Well, I measured it, so I am pretty sure that it is. This cliff varies with the water level. I once measured the jump at 43 feet. A different time I measured it at 65 feet. On this day it really was pretty much exactly 50 feet.

    Thanks for commenting.

  • @haneyenah Kazoontite

  • @kevphillips02 agree. Feels like 10 m at most

  • More like 25-35 feet at most. No way is that 50 foot

  • you were only in the air for about 1.5 seconds. That's about thirty feet. But nice try.

  • @mattraburnskate basic physics matey

  • @haneyenah you made me feel really stupid. thanks a lot.
