Hey guys,

I don't know if you remember me or not, but I made a thread within the last few days(I think) about scientifically throwing a brick through a window. I got some good responses.
Now I want to know, scientifically, under what circumstances you could throw a brick at a glass window and it wouldn't even break.
I did terrible in high school physics, so maybe some physics majors could help me with this. My guess is that if you are beneath a window and you throw a brick upwards in a parabolic arc towards the window, and the brick has more vertical velocity than horizontal velocity, when the brick reaches the peak of it's arc, it has zero vertical velocity and very little horizontal so the window doesn't even break.

Pic related. Keep in mind despite the poor drawing, the brick is supposed to have more vertical velocity than horizontal velocity. Maybe a better way to say that is that it has more of a vertical displacement than a horizontal displacement.
