Because apparently, his stunt is impossible to pull off!

We have previously learned that when it comes to mistakes, the internet can be pretty savage in pointing it out. Whether it’s a movie poster mistake, a headline mishap, or a photoshop fail — people are bound to notice and make fun of it.

So when actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson tweeted the new poster for his upcoming movie, people were quick to notice that something’s really off with it.

We’re all willing to sacrifice it all when it comes to protecting our families.
Here’s the first look at our original concept film, #SKYSCRAPER.

People questioned whether The Rock can actually pull off this stunt. Though he has proven himself capable of doing many things that most humans can’t — as seen in most of his film, at least — people on Twitter decided to prove the impossibility of such a jump using science.

Twitter user @jpsmythe drew some parabolas to show that regardless of the way The Rock jumps from the ledge, he’ll end up falling to his death.

Another one decided to factor in The Rock’s height to calculate how fast he should travel in order to get to the other side safely.

So I did some science.

Assuming that there is no "jump-off" (which seems to be optimal here)

We can determine that the Rock would need to leave the platform at 12.7 meters per second (appr. 28.4 mph)

For comparison, Usain Bolt's fastest recorded speed is 27.4 mph. pic.twitter.com/GruWcbtEAN

It turns out, he needs to be the fastest man who can make the tallest jump to pull it off!

So what I’m saying is that yes he could 100% add fastest man and longest jumpman to his record.

And someone even did some serious math to prove the point! Crazy, right?

While others decided to just poke fun of the whole thing:
