How the fuck did she even die then? She was unconscious she she couln't even die from shock. Death seems forced as hell just to have MJ introduced.
"she was dead before your webbing reached her"
She hit terminal velocity and then his web hit. She was going too fast and, at human durability, her neck couldn't take the sudden strain of that fast a deceleration and broke.
>How the fuck did she even die then?
But Goblin says that she died before the web hit. Pretty inconsistent.
Post the letter explaining that it was Spider-Man's fault
Read the page, Norman doesn't know shit. Its not that she was dead on the bridge before falling, Norman just assumed that the fall regardless of conditions would kill her because ???. It was a cop out way of making it not seem like Peter killed her so he wouldn't go through that moral crisis, and in fact that was not the intended moral crisis that he went through at that time. The moral crisis he went through in the original story was "I failed to save her, Normal killed her".
The reason why it later on took more of the impact of Peter killing her, is because there was a very noticable SNAP sound effect panel when he caught her, implying that he broke her spine when he tried to web her from the foot, because the sudden sharp impact in that moment would cause all the pressure to hit her neck in an instant.
That one SNAP sound effect is what forever ruined Peter, because it confirms what really happened.
He said she was dead before the webbing touched her, not that she died. He's pretty much telling Spidey that she was a goner pretty much the minute he tossed her off the bridge.
Certainly you can believe physics lessons from comic book super villains
What I've read was that back in the 70s or whatever, it was a common belief that just falling from that high would kill you, not even the part where you hit the ground. At least, that's the explanation I've read.
If people ever believed that, it would have been disproved by the time the parachute was invented, people weren't just dying in mid-air because of the fall.
I mean, it would probably make a snapping noise whether she was alive or not.
user, it's still widely believed that people in the 17th century thought the world was flat, even though there are volumes of evidence that shows we've known the earth was round since ancient greece.
Common misconceptions happen regardless of facts or evidence.
Wait your argument for people believing something obviously stupid and already disproven scientifically at the time is that some people believe that people in the past believed something idiotic and disproven scientifically at the time?
...yes?
Uh... that's bullshit. The fucking parachute is over 200 years old.
>introduced
Read comics.
You've read wrong then. The United States had wide knowledge of parachutes and paratroopers.
>believing anything a murdering lunatic who dresses as a fucking Goblin says
I mean, really user?
Dont underestimate the idoiocy of man
I like it. It makes the whole thing even more tragic.
Gwen died in '73 to introduce a character that debuted in '66?
That's the good part, its like some sorta greek tragedy or something.
And cat's land on their feet so its okay to throw them out windows.
