      I just rewatched the scene on YT, and he’s actually just a bit too late, and her head slams into the ground with full force.

        I was thinking of the comic, but I guess it makes sense tocdo it that way in a movie meant for kids. A neck snapping might be a bit grim

            I don’t experience it myself, so I couldn’t say why it is the case, but I’ve known people who felt more freaked out or unsettled by things like death via necks snapping. If I were to try and guess, maybe it is easier to process direct impact causing lethal trauma than something that seems less… sonething? Idk. Maybe someone who has experienced this can explain.

        If we are talking emma stone, she is specifically shown hitting her head during the whiplash which is what kills her

          I was referring to the original version in the comic. I haven’t followed all the revisions and alternate universes to know the variations.

        There is. You just need to spread out the deceleration from a few centimeters to a few meters in the falling direction, and make sure the force is being applied all over their body, not just a few spots (think bouncy castle vs rebar).
