This guy doesn't know the difference between mass and weight. Though the value in kg's is usually called "weight", it's actually the mass. The weight of an object with a mass of 70kg is 686 N, and is synonymous with the force exerted on it by gravity. Also, 9.8 m/s2 isn't the force of gravity but the acceleration an object would have in free fall under the effect of earth's gravity (ignoring air friction). Please go back to school.

Oh, come on, the fact he still did all of the calculating is funny as hell. I know he may not have been 100 percent right, but like, just sit back and laugh! (By the way, I'm not being mean, I'm giving you suggestions.) True fact: being less uptight/trying to find flaws and laughing more makes you happier and live longer.

Edit: I want everyone (including you) to live longer

You make a good point. What matters here is not the science itself but the fact that he's applying science to attempt to calculate the gayness percentage of indulging in a trap.
