        When I notice the person behind me catching up, I move to the side so they can pass

        I do it without realizing it. I’m clumsy, awkward, and I really am unaware of my surroundings.

      The light you see would be blue shifted because of the speed you’re going and become gamma rays for you. Radio waves would shift to visible light. So you would see radio.

      If you would move that fast on the ground, you’d slam into air molecules at light speed, causing a huge shockwave like a continuous Hiroshima nuke going of. That would make you sad.

    –rant start–

    I hate it I hate it such a shitty implication. This headline implies that walking fast makes you sad, but I’m willing to bet a lot that the study didn’t actually find such a causal connection.

    My guess is that the causal link is stress here. Stressed people walk faster and are also sad.

    So make the headline say “scientists say stressed people walk fast” or something because someone will try walking slowly in hopes of that bringing happiness

    –rant end–

    • bryophile@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I agree with your rant, this kind of title is annoying.

      I do however also think that doing slow mindful walks will help against stress, so the implication that slow walking brings happiness is not a bad implication. Stressed out fast walking people really should try it. There’s no reason to be in a hurry all of the time.

      But the headline doesn’t imply a causal connection, it’s your own bias that does

      I read it and immediately assumed it’s because stressed people walk faster

        The tagline is still making a massive leap of logic to a clickbaity conclusion.

      I didn’t even think about taking the title seriously but now that you say it, it does sound ridiculous. I wonder if it’s bait for people to come in explain causation (serious) to drum up engagement, or if it’s actually just dumb.

    It used to be that when my girlfriend and I were walking, she would always be rushing me by walking much faster. After starting my current job, I’ve become the fast walker, always having to slow down for her.

    Uhhh I’m not sure I like the implication of this is

        Southern US. Race doesn’t matter. White, black, brown or whatever. The walk is the same. Not many 200kg women in Africa.

    Honestly I’ve been very conscious of this lately as a fast walker and it turns out even when I’m in the best mood it’s just fucking painful to walk slow. I feel the same way driving slow in a car with a turbo — the car wants to move fast.

    This can’t be true although I only have anecdotal evidence to back up my claim.

    It’s me. I’m unhappy and a very slow walker.

    source
    • avg@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Correlation does not imply causation, in this case it doesn’t mean that sad people walk fast. A few years ago there was a similar study that said that people that walked faster were healthier or something, the reality was that younger people walk faster, they also happen to be healthier than older people.

      In this case, it’s entirely possible that younger people are fucking depressed due to the state of everything.
