Well.....

Stood by the road and some one slightly pushed me and i stepped forward...

A car ran completely over my foot and left huge print accross my shoe...

Took a while for my brain to register what happened and then it hurt like nutts

BUT its fine, no broken bones, no damage.... Not a mark... How the hell did that not crush my foot?

Should be thankful really.

Approx weight of a car? 1,200 kg
Spread across 4 wheels = 300Kg per wheel
Assume also there is some give and redistribution due to the suspension and air in the tyre so maybe 250Kg if the full width of the tyre went across your foot, more likely it was just part of it (Average tyre is going to be say 140mm wide or more) so say 100kg actual weight, rolled rather than dropped. Yeah, it's going to hurt, but no worse than a fat guy standing on your toe.

a) You've got titanium feet?
b) The car was made of marshmallow
c) You're hard as nails

Or maybe what Olly said

Try it with a steam roller, see what happens

Was it brum, that little tinker can only weigh a couple of hunderd k's, you big girl

Had it done to me. My motorbike cut out in traffic. Put my foot down and a Clio ran over it! Chased the b'stard down booted his door. Funnily, kicking his car hurt more than him running over my foot. Brand new pair of suede desert boots that were only a few hours old ruined by a tyre mark (it was the mid-90's, they were fashionable, honest!)

I have always wondered what would happen if a car ran over my foot. Now I dont have to try it to find out

RichS

Me too.
Thanks for doing the research for us

At least the research and development costs weren't high. Not often you hear that

Occupational hazard of being a courier is cars running over feet. The thing to remember to not do is turn round and shout at the driver as that tends to pull your knee out

Go on then ya big ******

Interesting to hear.

I once tried something similar and tied a young filly to a trainline in a black and white western style setting. I donned a long flowing black cape, large black top hat and cane. Even had suspensive fast piano music in the background as well as the steamtrain drew closer and closer. Fantastic experiment.

Sadly some tool on horseback came in and released her; there was some gunplay and the camera got dropped. Sorry.
