wiffyboy:

why are they the only ones (That we've seen) that were knocked back  
when the
curse struck them?

doug: grasping…

Hmmmm, wasn't the fox airborne? leaping? or was it in the grass?  
Weren't the family in chairs? Would the chairs have been enough  
support to negate any additional or changed momentum? If the fox was  
*in* the grass, perhaps an altered momentum wasn't *seen*, or if it  
was jumping, perhaps the added momentum was in the direction of  
motion? Wouldn't a wild animal presumably flee away from a threat?

I have no answers either as to Bryce and Diggory.... It might indeed  
hinge on being *seen*


Why are Humans the only primates with chins and nuclear weapons?
