I mean.... I do I really need to repeat that Sumo wrestlers while fat are actually ridiculously flexible, and most of that fat is subcutaneous which is the better fat to have?

That's a good reminder. I think physocs will still be defied, though.

One of the most famous parts of Swan Lake is the 32 fouettes. A sumo wrestler weighs about three ballerinas, just for easy math from a web search for averages (300 lbs vs 85-130 lbs). Iirc that translates directly to three times as much friction and three times as much inertia to get up to speed. These could be compensated by a near-frictionless floor, but the whole thing would have to go a lot slower, which doesn't really feel like a flawless performance anymore considering the music.

going to be hard, considering he's been dead for nearly 20 years. But I guess since it is a dream, anything can happen. Including me and Gary Busey fighting off Nordic Vikings in the year 3021.

It's a dream. Wilford Brimley and William Howard Taft will be sumotori.
