You are shrunk to the height of a nickel and your mass is proportionally reduced so as to maintain your original density. You are then thrown into an empty glass blender. The blades will start moving in 60 seconds. What do you do?

I’d immediately die, long before any blades started moving. Reduction of mass requires that atoms be removed. Cells can’t function if you randomly remove 99% (+/-) of the atoms from them.
1. Use the measurement marks to climb out
2. Try to unscrew the glass
3. Risk riding out the air current
since i am of the height of a nickel probably blades won’t touch me.so there is 100% of my survival provided,
1)i don’t come into blades due to the air pressure of blades
2) blades are stopped immediately, and i am taken out
3) i can regain my original structure
I’ll climb quickly to the center of glass. The centropital force won’t be felt since i’m in the middle, and the blades will fly around me. Hopefully I won’t get too sick
When you’re shrunk, your volume is reduced cubicly, and so is your mass, as the density is constant. Your muscle strenght, though, is reduced to the square as it’s proportional to the cross section area of your muscle fibers. Thus, you’d be able to jump right off the blender before it’s turned on. With such strong legs, lending won’t be a problem either.
That’s why the smaller the animal the higher they can jump, in proportion to their size.
If I was reduced to the size of a nickel I would lie down horizontally and watch the blades spin over head.
or
I would take of my shirt and my pant tie a knot, sit under the blade and tie myself with the rod holding the blades.
