Alternative theory - maybe they don't fall. Maybe the platform rises away from them. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 26/11/2011 09:39:37 PM
Didn't Rand initially Skim as a rising stair? Maybe Skimming is upward motion, but no one knows because they don't have any visual reference points. Did we ever get a PoV from a passenger? IIRC, we only have the channeler who made the gateway "sensing" the motion. Maybe the people who saw the Aiel guy fall only thought so because they were rising and had no sense of motion, so they assumed he dropped.

I don't think it's an illusion - the Aiel & the gholam both went DOWN - 26/11/2011 09:33:40 PM 824 Views

Good idea, but unlikely. - 27/11/2011 02:20:24 AM 654 Views
Having to include that caveat shows you know your argument sucks - 27/11/2011 05:28:29 AM 954 Views
The effects of being in zero gravity are obvious. - 07/12/2011 01:17:05 AM 625 Views
