The Perfect Piss Angle (PPA) on the American Standard Urinal.

So, one thing I am very fond of is the urinal. What a genius invention. It saves water, provides an ergonomic situation for urinating, not to mention I can now read going number one. However, there is one major drawback, and in an effort to combat this nationwide no, worldwide epidemic that is Urinal Splashback I am publishing my findings here.
Urinal Splashback can be defined as the phenomenon created by close range, high velocity urine against porcelain. I have determined after extensive testing the perfect piss angle for the American Standard Trimbrook⢠.85 – 1.0 GPF Urinal – Siphon Jet, pictured at left. Initial conditions include lining up one’s junk to the dead center of the urinal, both horizontally and vertically. Aim 30 degrees down and 30 degrees to the left wall to minimize all splashback. I have yet to be hit by a stray droplet when holding this azimuth. This posting will begin the empirical process and future study of urinal splashback. Please post your findings as a comment. I may even submit it to Myth Busters for consideration. Together we can create a future where pants and hands stay clean and urine stays where it should… In the urinal.



I have found that if I stand about 3 feet from the urinal and arc the golden stream. However, this procedure is dangerous if you have sandals on as any shaking can put droplets on the feet.
I can’t believe you wrote about this. But since you did…perhaps you should refer to another fantastic invention called the iCart. It’s a toilet roll holder that has speakers designed into it along with a iPOD dock, please observe:
