Hmmm… This brings up an interesting question for the physics nerds out there.
The desired termination of the CEO is the sudden stop at the end of the flight.
When using a catapult or trebuchet, excessive force exerted during launch would terminate the CEO immediately. This would deprive the CEO of his last luxury flight. .
What the the maximum distance a catapult or trebuchet can throw the CEO while achieving this result? Assume the CEO weighs 100kg’s and is 165cm tall.
Quick search and napkin math mixed with some LLM says that at least 100m should be fine. Launch would be a bit uncomfortable at around 3g, but nothing a normal body couldn’t manage. Not that long of a flight, but a flight anyways.
