I'm giving you a piggy back ride and misstep, sending use both over a cliff. Do we both die or does my pudgy body break our short fall OR does the initial strip before the plunge initiate you falling off my shoulders/back and thuse leaving you on your butt but still on top of the cliff?

Obviously sitting down should make the one being carried drop off aswell.

What happens to the cart when owner dies?

Can carts be taken by others?

Well i'll give you 20 out of 10 for creative  ;D

About the only application i can see for piggybacking is for injured or charaters in coma.
As for fall damage whethere you fall, jump or are dragged off a cliff your gonna get real messed up if not dead. no amount of " but he hit the ground first is gonna help ".
Lastly how would for argument sake a 4ft Dwarf give a 7ft Kran a piggyback even if he/she was strong enough.

Ok thats enough of me killing the idea so how about i breath a little life into it.......
Working on your basic idea of weight if you add in the effect of a counter lever which i'm sure you all know allows for a person to lift  multiply times their normal strenght would allow, how about hand pulled carts.

Bah just an idea that i'm sure has come up ( to be honest haven't checked other threads yet  :-\)
