So I took a look at the sticky in the Lounge...
I'd just like to clarify that the term Terminal Deceleration Syndrome (TDS) is commonly used for a wide range of medical findings—e.g., fractures, torn tissue, organ prolapse, rupture or tearing, etc.—which affects a person whose momentum in a particular direction was abruptly 'compromised'—e.g., jumps/falls from heights, impacts with other non-resilient stationary structures.
Y'know a lot of Star Wars characters have their momentum abruptly compromised and that's a real problem, both physically and mentally, and it could be treated with shock therapy, (Joy Behar).
