There’s two different types of fall safety, fall prevention and fall arrest. Fall prevention stops you before you fall; fall arrests stop your fall after it happens. The reason why you have a certain amount of slack is because the slack helps absorb the energy; a solid lanyard that doesn’t deploy would distribute the energy throughout your body instead of through the lanyard, which is more damaging.

The type of damage you’re thinking of would be for a fall against a flat surface, you’d want to hit the ground sooner rather than later. But energy transfer through a lanyard benefits more from having room to deploy, and can help prevent your body from going into shock.

Edit: whoops, said fall arrest twice

Maybe I’m just ignorant, but this title feels like someone said “EA are making a chess-style Basketball game inspired by Football”

On a little vacay in Istanbul. This cat came to hang out at a restaurant down the street. He pawed my thigh, I thought he was gonna jump on me to ask me for pets and food, but I had no food left. I told him “sorry buddy I’m outta food.” Turns out he knew & was just pawing my thigh to move it so he could leave and find his next target.

I’ve seen people give full meals to this cat, he’s well fed.
