The Pusher goes from terrifying to pathetic if you look up an image of a drained British narrowboat canal and realise just how pathetically shallow and easy to stand up in they are.

UK canals aren't known for strong currents and almost always are 4 feet deep in the middle, or less. Literally knee-deep near the sides.

There's literally nothing stopping the Pusher's victims from simply standing up in shallow water and waiting until he walks away.

He can't follow them in the water? What is he a vampire? If this is a Masquerade violation, the Camarilla will handle him eventually. Trust in the Prince. Trust in the Plan.

You can drown in a small puddle. I would even argue, that being pushed into shallow water is more dangerous than being pushed into deep water
>>
>>954146201

And what are the odds someone who is pushed in would hit their head on the edge, when theyre actively being pushed away from it?
>>
>you can stand up
It's all mud. It's squelchy sludge you'll sink in and unless you have a rope you're not getting out
>>
>>954148498
They're not talking about hitting their head on the ledge. In shallow water you're very likely to hit your head on the bottom of the canal and drown that way. In fact I've seen several videos in rekt threads of just that happening.

Pick one.
>>
>>954154759
You think there's no rocks or concrete down there? And even in mud you can break your neck if you land head first at the wrong angle
>>
Did you know that the UK started to build the shipping canal network during the industrial revolution, because the railway hadn't been invented yet, and the road network was primitive, but they needed some way of transporting heavy goods across the country?
>>
>>954154903
You can see that there are not...allowing navigational obstructions in the canal would be counterproductive as well, and nobody is going to have the sort of momentum it would take to snap their neck in the mud from a shove and then sinking through 4 feet of water.
>>
>>954156192
Boats are the most cost effective method of transport. It makes sense.

>>954146067
he tackles them into the water then holds them under until they stop moving
>>
>>954156192
Yes.

What the fuck else did you think they were for?

They were also private land and you weren't allowed walk on the towpaths until the 1960s
>>
>>954146067
Oh. you're back again.

Still fixated on this whole "you cant drown in a canal" nonsense ?
>>
>>954158515
Well that's not a pusher at all then, that's a forward tackle.
>>
>>954160680

Nobody's saying you can't drown in a canal. If you're unconscious, you could drown in a puddle.

But a conscious person being pushed into knee deep water at best and chest deep water at worst and simply refusing to stand up and letting themselves drown is absurdity.
>>
Yeah, it's a northerner thing anyway so who gives a shit if there is a guy drowning people in the canal?
>>
>>954146067
long as e's goh 'is Canal Pushin' Loicense paid up, 'e can go on, simple as

>>954160803
it's you who called him a "pusher" without knowing anything and not having given a single thought about the tactical situation
moron
>>
>>954156706
A lot of people drowned exactly in that way, so I dont know what you are on about
>>
>>954146067
Most of the victims were really drunk
>>
>>954160590
>What the fuck else did you think they were for?

Why the knee-jerk aggression? I did not think the fuck they were for anything else. I was simply sharing an interesting piece of information on the subject of the discussion. Not everyone in the world knows about the history of the early industrial revolution, so it might be news to some readers.

Just because we're anonymous to each other doesn't mean we have to be uncivil at the slightest provocation, perceived or real.

Please be sure to advise me to kill myself, and/or send some threadbare meme my way. I bid you good day, sir.

Politeness is very rude on b. Why are you such a fucking rude nigger?
>>
>>954166775
So, by that standard, being rude, which you are, is actually polite, which, according to you, is actually rude. So why are you being rude to me?
>>
>>954146201
that true, to drown you need less than 10 cm of water.
