Time distortion

[tikay]

Yes but im afraid we on here arent who i was talking about. I watched a Dicovery Science programme not long ago trying to use the latest technology to find which was the "best" style of martial art. They tested rection times and they had the reigning world tae-kwondo champion on there and it the test was the one where the light comes on and you have to hit it as soon as it lights up. This guy did the whole process in less than 170th of a second. Faster almost than me or anybody on here would even see the light come on. The kung fu champion came second with around 200th of a second and the karate champion in about 230th of a second. Now these times are about as fast as a human can have. So yes IMO reaction time can be developed to the very highest and fastest a human can possibly achieve.

Am I missing something here. Surely "230th of a second" is faster than "170th" of a second?  Now that would be time-distortion! Or do you mean 0.017, as opposed to 0.023?

Yes, it's milliseconds.

Why not have a go yourself and measure yours - http://www.humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime/index.php

My average over ten goes was 216ms.

204, 207, 209, 208, & 1minute, 17 seconds. (The 'phone rung).

169.7 after 10 goes.

That puts me at No.7 on the recent scores and No. 103 on all time ranking.



Must be down to luck

I bet the reason you were so quick was because you were using your 'checking' finger to press the mouse button.

Rumbled. My "Pass" finger is even quicker.

I tried the "be more aggressive early" trick yesterday in Cardiff. 17 minutes I lasted. Not bad. I think the aggression setting needs a bit of fine tuning.
