Unbelievable [SPOILERS]

That's all true, but if you think about it--the drop would of 99% killed Cid.
If you look at the height of his fall, plus the impact from the bomb; regardless of the fact of the distance. But it was actually still quite near to him.

I can believe the story of Yang staying alive, because of his sheer resilience--but you must be kind of foolish and gullible to believe Cid didn't die. It is Final Fantasy after all, so anything can happen...

Cid: Cid threw the bomb above him. Since he put some distance between himself and the bomb, he didn't suffer from the explosion (guess the perspective was a little off there). However, it was a long drop, so he suffered quite a bit of damage. I wouldn't be surprised if he broke some bones. You'll notice that Cid takes a long time to recover. When he makes airship modifications, he needs the nurses to help him walk around. I think this kind of illustrates my point.

Your lack of Cid's beard in your explanation saddens me.

You should read "FFIV: Ah, the Power of Cheese". It explains everything. (WARNING: May contain spoilers)

Both of them wanted to have some part in the great deeds at the end of the game.

YES!

did anyone else find it strange that tellah died form useing a spell he was too weak to use but everyone else survives form massive explosions?

**Bunny** · 04-12-2007, 12:29 PM

Tellah had a crappy beard.

Exactly.

The state of a male characters beard determines their awesomeness in FFIV. Beard growing is different in that world; if you are awesome, you find it easy to grow a beard, it has nothing to do with genetics.

Cecil - Is the main character, and is therefore not allowed to have a beard, which exempts him from this rule. Seriously, find me one main in an RPG with a beard.

Cid - Has a brilliant beard, and is awesome.

Edge - Has no beard. Is ashamed of this, and wears ninja mask to disguise the fact. But we aren't fooled, Edge. We know you are not awesome enough.

Edward - Has no beard, and writes emo songs to lament this fact.

FuSoYa - Has an awesome beard, and is awesome to teh max.

Kain - Could have a beard if he wanted to, but it would fly up into his face when he peformed jump and obscure his vision, leading to an early, tragic and comical death.

Tellah - Has a sucky beard, which is nearly as bad as no beard.

Palom - He is FIVE.

Yang - Has a moustache. He isn't overly bright and got the rule wrong.

But seriously, what darksword 12 said seems pretty good.

YAY BEARD

But if we stopped being comical for a moment, we would know that Yang, and Cid should be dead in their graves.
