For arguments' sake, the whole human.
- loco5niner 10y agoThis kills the human (joking... I don't really know)
- timdierks 10y agoLet's say an human with height 170cm and hip width of 85cm (these are between the averages men & women) gives a rectangular area of about 1.4 m^2; the head and legs aren't as wide as the hips, but this doesn't include the arms, so let's take it as a guess of the weight-bearing area for a prone or supine human. This area times 5 psi is more than 5,000 kg (more than 11,000 lbs). So yes, I think it would kill someone.
