If I shine a flashlight into a handheld mirror, obviously the light bouncing off the mirror is moving at the speed of light. Now if I give the mirror a quick snap of the wrist, I've just increased its speed beyond that of light to Light + the Speed of Wrist Snap. And I didn't achieve infinite mass or anything. Conclusion: faster than light travel is possible.

Are you trying to push light with your mirror? Because that's called blue-shifting.

snapping the wrist what way?
if you are trying to impart the force onto the light which you can't do then you are an idiot.
No, the information has changed, not the path of photons
Wow OP, great discovery, I'm sure this will really turn some heads when you publish it!
Someone wanna explain why this doesn't work?
>>7638340
Because it doesn't. The speed of light is constant

light doesn't bounce off of mirrors. It is absorbed and reemitted.

You could've saved yourself a whole lot of time with your "wrist flicking" and described it as riding a bicycle with a flashlight.
Bike speed + light speed = FTL!!!!
