This thread is the first in a series (well, okay, maybe not if it gets LOCKjaw) of nonsensical polls about questions with no answer. Some of you may remember the Immovable Object/Unstoppable Force thread from the last board, so it's kinda like that. Have fun wracking your brains, everybody. _________________ Rycel's Death Count on this board: 7

Of course it would make a sound. Haven't you ever heard a tree fall before? _________________ "I hope you haven't become too attached to your head, because in about two seconds it will be festively decorating that back wall."

All right, FAK could explain this better, but I'll try my best.
The tree will definately make a sound if it's observed (by a person, or creature--it doesn't matter, to whatever observes it, it makes a sound). However, to what- or whoever can't observe it, the tree must be classified as both falling, and not falling, thus making the sound and not at the same time.

Leave it to Krogoth or Bono to come up with a COMPLETELY logical reason why a tree does NOT follow the laws of physics and make a sound when falling.
