Edward describes his body as being capable of 'so much violence.' Edward's strength is thousands of times that of an average human male. Did Stephanie fail to narrate the the enormous force of his ejaculate?
This post attempts to calculate Edward's raw power:
>“The lowest branch of the ancient spruce beside me was in easy reach. I ripped the limb from the body without any effort at all. The wood shrieked and protested, the bark and splinters exploded from the site of the injury. I weighed the bough for a moment in my hand. Roughly 863 pounds. Not enough to win in a fight with the hemlock across the clearing to my right, but enough to do some damage. I flicked the branch at the hemlock tree, aiming for a knot about 30 feet from the ground. My projectile hit dead center, the thickest end of the bough smashing with a booming crunch, and disintegrating into shards of shattered wood that rained down on the ferns below with a faint hissing. A fissure split in the center of the knot, and snaked its way a few feet in either direction. The hemlock tree trembled once, the shock radiating through the roots and into the ground… so little effort on my part. I’d not needed to use more than a tiny fraction of my available strength, and still, so much violence, so much harm.”
A normal human can meaningfully throw an object 100 ft if it weighs 3lb or less. Edward throws a 863 lb branch he "ripped without any effort" around with "so little effort." If this translates to 5-10% of his total strength, we can roughly put his power at 3000x-6000x a normal human based on his first hand account. We can just settle on 3000x strength for this one but other accounts are much higher.
This 1948 study by Alfred Kinsey titled, "Sexual Behavior in the Human Male" averages out the ejaculation distance of 300 participants. One outlier hits 8 ft while the average male hits just barely out from where they're standing. This means though that given enough power and the right pressure, a human penis can 'fire' a load an impressive distance.
The structure of Edward's penis does not scale with his power. Meaning he is 'firing' his semen through the same size of hose as a human male but with 3000x the power behind it.
A projectile fired at 45 degrees would require an exit velocity calculated below:
Human ejaculate velocity for 8ft distance: v = sqrt(d x g) = sqrt(2.4 m x 9.8 m/s^2) = 4.8 m/s = 11 mph.
If we scale that velocity with pressure using Bernoulli's Principle which states that velocity is directly proportional to the square root of pressure.
Vampire ejaculate velocity calculated from the pressure inside the penis scaled from human ejaculation velocity and vampire tree limb vandal activities: P = force/area = v * sqrt(3000) = 602 mph.
If we use other estimates for their power levels such as the cement truck being stopped by one arm, we can move this number to massive levels. Just saying we're low, we could say its 6000 times which puts Edward's load velocity up to 852 mph.

Vampire ejaculation distance in a vacuum:
If we use the outlier here we could claim the distance would reach 4.5 miles but that's just multiplying 8ft by 3000 which isn't accurate since Edward wouldn't ejaculate in a vacuum.
Vampire ejaculate atomization calculations accounting for air resistance.
The Weber number is the ratio of disruptive aerodynamic force to the surface tension holding a droplet together.
ρ_air * x^2 * d / σ
(1.2 × 90,000 × 0.003) / 0.05 = 6,500 We
Atomizing nozzle for industrial spray applications or for demonstrating semen atomization
When a Weber number is above 100, the breakup level well beyond 'atomization.' Edward's penis wouldn't fire out a stream, it would spray a room with a mist atomized cum particles that would exit his penis in a cone. He could hit a long distance relative to a human male, even with air resistance. It would be like an extremely high pressure paint gun spraying out.
The true danger Bella faced was not bruising, it was machine shop grade water jet pressure inside at the end of that penis.
Bella needs serious safety training to learn how to handle vampire ejaculations.
Dangers to the human body
The question of danger comes down to the amount of kinetic energy released by Edward, the most dangerous point being the immediate nozzle of the high pressure hose.
We can roughly estimate his strength at time of climax by guessing his strength ratio to a human male:
3000× strength269 m/s½ × 0.004 × 269² ≈ 145 J
6000× strength380 m/s½ × 0.004 × 380² ≈ 289 J
10,000× (cement-truck)480 m/s½ × 0.004 × 480² ≈ 461 J

Safety recommendations for Bella: create distance when working with high pressure hoses under water.
We're talking about the same energy outputs as a gun. Here is a good table for reference:
From Wikipedia we get a table with energy output in foot-pounds:
For example a .22 short round has 87 foot pounds of force. COnverting that to joules we get:
1ft/cdotplb = 1.3558J
Using that we can create this Charlie Swan approved table:
| Cartridge | ME (ft·lb, from Wikipedia) | × 1.3558 = | ME (joules) |
|---|---|---|---|
| .22 Short | 87 | 87 × 1.3558 | 118 J |
| .22 Long Rifle | 137 | 137 × 1.3558 | 186 J |
| .380 ACP | 200 | 200 × 1.3558 | 271 J |
| 9×19mm Parabellum | 342 | 342 × 1.3558 | 464 J |
Final verdict? Bella is handling a weapon that is potentially capable of delivering the same muzzle energy as a .22 Long Rifle all the way up to a 9 x 19mm Parabellum.
Final thoughts
Remember to keep your wits about you when handling a cylinder capable of exerting dangerous amounts of force. Point it away from people and animals you care about. Keep at least a 2 meter distance when in front of it. Always keep both eyes on it when its in the room with you.
