It would feel much heavier if you tied the rope to your penis and tried to pull the bucket out of the well, of that much I am certain.

Having tried that, I can tell you only one pull up is possible at a time.

I saw something like this earlier this week. A woman was trying to figure out how long it would take you to go 80 miles traveling at 80 mph.

My great-grandfather was an actual Baldknobber. I'm also pretty sure thar someone way back was in the KKK but nobody can/will confirm that.

anyway, I'm pretty sure the bucket would feel heavier even though it's weight doesn't change.

However he was lifting it, if he's done it for years, he developed those muscles so it probably "felt" like a 10lbs bucket.

The rest of the assholes in this thread should STFU and get out of my well.
