Does anyone know the name of the guy who dropped a bowling ball and a tennis ball of a high building and proven that gravity plays the same role on everything? really appreciate it...

Newton?

[Nex]

i am pretty sure it was not a tennis ball and a bowling ball in the first place..

Newton, Sir Isaac.

i thought he dropped a ball to display how the earth rotates?

[sacrelicious]

Galileo is said to have dropped two balls of different sizes and masses from the leaning tower of Pisa to show that gravity is constant. This, I think, is just a legend and not an actual fact.

What is your obsession with my forbidden closet of mystery?

Sacrelicious is right. It was Galileo.

First, he rolled two spheres of different weight down a super long ramp.

Then he went to the Leaning Tower of Pisa and dropped them.

Newton mostly proved gravity through calculus.

Q- Who's the guy who sat in the bath, watched the water rise and then supposedly ran down the road naked cause he finally figured out how volume worked?.

[Impaler]

Archimedes.

I don't know how you spell it, but the streaker you are looking for's name was

Ark-a-me-dees

Trust you to turn this thread in a perverted direction Mr Lukias. (And before you ask I'm pretty damn sure that there were NO bubbles or bodily gases involved)

[Jerry]

thank you Sacrelicious that's all I need... although I would like to say Archimedes is smart but he died stupidly... He got killed in a war while drawing a math diagram
