Author Topic: would you rather : have no legs and be able to fly or be able to run VERY fast  (Read 1756 times)


If I could run flash speed, then run.

i mean, you could have no legs and fly around doing things for money until you can afford cool cyber legs

like if the issue is that you can't kick anyone while flying around guess what problem cyber legs solves? pretty much all of them

I mean not having legs is a pretty trivial manner. Could've just kept it super speed vs flight but whatever. It just seems not having legs is a menial setback.

I'd go with running speed if it's implied I have reflexes and the body to accommodate it.

the Flash runs at light speed relatively easily. If we're talking about running fast as the flash you'd have to be crazy to pick flight.

I'd choose flying in a heartbeat

Because flying > running in many situations, and what Bushido said.

i'd choose flying, because that can't be impaired in any way. like what happens if you trip and fall and twist your ankle when you're running really fast, what then? you're just a fool who can run really fast with one leg.
thunder storms may be an issue

i'd go with flight, because flight would be pretty fun

i guess one of the negatives of flying is: how fast can I fly? How much can I carry?

I live in a metropolitan area. Flying is a bad idea.

run very fast
i would rather have legs than be able to fly without them

fly, rob banks and buy robo legs

Do I have angel wings that sprout from my back, or bird wings where they're attached to my 'arms', or do I fly with no appparent propulsion (like telekineticly)?

I wouldn't want bird wings even if I had hands.
Angel wings would be fine but would make getting dressed awkward, as well as lounging on a sofa, or sleeping on a bed or being in a crowded/cramped place.
Telekineticly would be best provided I could hover.


Otherwise I definitely choose running especially if I can run 25m/s.
Being able to run a kilometre in 40 seconds would be nice, but hitting a wall or a person could kill me or someone else. We are talking about running 56mph here.


I assume you can fly as in hovering and moving around basically telepathically.

If you knew how to fly, you might get kidnapped by some government or group who wants to figure out why you can fly. Then again, if you ran too fast, that might happen as well.

I would probably just want to run really fast. You basically are guaranteed a dope olympic medal and fame and stuff. If you had really good reaction speed that'd be even better.

If you run super fast I'd imagine you can also limit yourself, doing this would allow you to become really good at parkour. I'd say super run.
