I think I know why this happens. It's probably the same reason why stickies do more damage if someone is standing directly on top of them then if they're directly above someone, they probably calculate damage based on some arbitrary "center of mass" concept which just so happens to be low on the player model.

Exactly, an explosion over the head area will affect a smaller volume of mass than an explosion over the leg,torso area. I didn't know it was calculated like this but it makes perfect sense.

Except the explosion over your head would instantly kill you and the one at your feet not.

I would like you to take a look at afganistan and tell me that an explosion at your feet wont turn you into pink mist unless you are one of the luckiest people around.

If we're talking realistically, being hit by one of those things directly anywhere would kill you. However this is a video game, and especially considering that this is Team Fortress 2, realism is laughable.

I really wish Valve would patch direct pipes and just make them do 100 damage, regardless of where they hit. Even if it isn't random damage, it sure as hell feels that way sometimes.
