I'm Sure This Happens To All The Heroes!

Jay Garrick is running up a building to catch escaping thief Rag Doll...




Cue the soft jazz and dim the lights!!

Oh, admit it--on planets with super-heroes, this is how most...ahem...adult...movies start, right? It's the Earth-2 equivalent of "hot pizza delivery man," right?

OK, I'm sorry.

From Flash #229 (1974)

I'm not a Flash fan, so maybe there's something I'm missing here, but...

If a falling rubber ball hitting him when he's super-speeding towards it could kill him -- obviously that's because of his velocity rather than the ball's -- doesn't that imply that the first time he trips and runs into something at superspeed he will die horribly?
