Default Um ... Gravity?

When Super Buu blasts Gotenks in the face and sends him flying so hard and fast into Kami's Lookout that it breaks into peices, why why WHY does nothing actually fall? I mean there is clearly gravity up there. I mean, ppl do walk up there, they don't just fly. I just noticed it and it's really bothering me. Also just thought of this: Goku says that only 2 ppl at a time are allowed in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. How can Super Buu, Picolo and Gotenks all fit in there?

The fact that it was originally just floating there to begin with (it wasn't until Gokuu used his Nyoibo in Dragonball that the lookout was attached to Karin's tower) suggests that there are magical properties to the lookout to negate the effects of gravity on it, so logically its pieces would have this property as well.

The Room of Spirit and Time was designed to only be able to accomodate two people (furniture, etc), but it is easily capable of having more people within it.

Goku never says only two people can go into the Time Chamber.

He says that it is set up for two people. Meaning two beds, enough food for two people, etc. Like having a "double" hotel room: it's made for two, but you can pile in as many people as you want.

We always only see two Z fighters in The Room of Spirit and Time [Hyperbolic Time Chamber] at the same time, Bejita and Torankusu, Kakarotto and Soh Gohan etc.

Default Re: Um ... Gravity?

Don't sweat the gravity issue; Dragonball routinely desecrates the natural laws of the unniverse, albeit in an amusing fashion.

Goku likely just told Vegeta that so that he could get Trunks and him in there together. Trunks had just complained to Goku that Vegeta would go ballistic whenever he went near him (on the cliff), and after Goku told Vegeta that the room could only hold two he asked if he was lying. Goku responded with a nervous chuckle and no terribly convincing "C'mon, would I lie to you?" or something similar

GOKU IS JUST FULL OF CRAP!
