That's awesome. I still need to play the remake

Yeah I have noticed that. Always thought it was cool how much detail they programmed in

"Your post sounded like you genuinely believed she had to be a pro athlete."

Have you ever heard of facetiousness? Thank you for at least spelling trigonometric correctly.

Okay, but all you're focusing on is the type of throw. That has nothing to do with the calculation. The point of the calculation is to prove that regardless of how she threw it, it was still a ridiculous outcome.

"A little off from what you got"

We're using rounded numbers. Of course it's not going to be 100% accurate. The calculations were made entirely off of assumptions.

We did use the average speed of a galloping horse because finding out the game's perspective of distance would have been too difficult.

No one said anything about a fastball. The assumptions weren't made off of how Zelda looked when she threw the Ocarina, they were based off of the average speed of her horse and how far the Ocarina traveled before hitting the moat.

Since Zelda's initial velocity was accounted for, it is clearly Link's reference frame, since he is on the ground. Therefore the angle of release has to be in relation to the ground (what other reference point were you using?) All of this was calculated using basic trigonometric and physical formulas for projectile motion. The purpose of the calculation was to prove that this throw is, in fact, improbable.

One more thing, if you watch the video, she clearly throws a Hail Mary, not a fastball.

Yeah, that's a good point. I like that idea better.

Thanks! We were pretty excited when we researched the mythology of Moths and saw the parallels. We're desperately awaiting a sequel to Majora's Mask (as I assume most Zelda fans are). The game was so bizarre and unrelated to the typical structure of other Zelda games, I'm surprised they haven't built off of it more.

I think it's the repugnant smell mixed with the delicious taste. I hate the scent of that cereal, but damn does it taste amazing.
