While I, too, have heard that it is impossible for a single person to tip a cow, the creator of that webpage left off something important:

If you can budge the cow and get it to sway a little bit, you can push harder and harder every time the sway is starting to go away from you, similar to sitting on a swing and starting from there. I'm thinking it might be possible to tip a cow this way, although I'm not sure.

@badandy - sure... You could try that, but I can just about guarantee you that cow's going to wake up before you get enough sways in.

LOL That's a lil more aggressive than "tipping", sounds a lil more like vehicular homicide! :p

Not to threadjack, but I love that movie! my local Fry's (http://www.outpost.com) has this on their HDTV and Sony Blu-Ray DVD player on constant repeat. I go there sometimes on lunch and get sucked into the whole bloody movie.

"I'm happier than a tornado in a trailer park!" Classic.

BL.

Ah.. not tipping as in "giving a tip"...

But eh... maybe something for the team of Mythbusters?

Definitely a summer activity, me thinks – I wouldn't fancy lurking in a field with a cow in the middle of a cold winter night. It would be Friesian.

ooo dear

Cow tipping is great fun ....hypnotizing chickens is even better :D

[The Past]

Oddly, I read the heading and thought this was about tipping cows, as in, say, Indians worship the cow and offer tips.

I grew up in the country and I've got to agree with PlaceofDis...Never made any sense to me. Seems pretty mean, all in all.

[Abstract]

So the cows can't get back up after you tip them over, right? I'm not a hillbilly, so I'm pretty ignorant on such matters. ;)

[Sdashiki]

Ive never seen a cow tipping, nor have I participated in one. Even with the millions in my state...

Anyway, to my understanding, if you physically shove over a large bovine from standing to its side...would not all their rib bones break from the impact?

IMO its a cruel idea to even think of.

At least use that stun bolt thing first and then eat the cow afterwards!

It doesn't matter what you've heard, Cow tipping is a myth, Cows don't sleep standing. Yea I googled it. I checked youtube also, no videos. If cow tipping was true, there'd be at least 1 video on youtube. Case closed, I always thought cow tipping was true. :rolleyes:
