    1. Maybe 2,300 ft? If the gif is approximately real time in duration, and I count about 12 secs, that would be a rough estimate.
      d = 1/2 g * t^2
      g being 32.2 ft/s^2

  3. Where is it?

    That's a road, not a path.

  5. That was probably a planned road closure to dislodge a dangerous loose rock.

  8. Sometimes I'd like to know more about the background and outcome of these short videos... this is one of those times.

    1. I bet that it would make for one hell of a good lawsuit!

  10. If you zoom in closely, you can see that the rock just missed the road runner…again.

  11. Dislodging large rocks so they won't come loose on their own and kill or injure someone on the road below seems like every little boy's dream. Especially when the rock falls that far and makes a splash when it lands.

  12. Well someone had to do it, or close the road until gravity took care of it. Eliminating the precarious sitch. Preventive maintenance.
