Did you know that if you took every elephant on earth and stacked them up to the moon, they would all pretty much die?
Did you know that a blue whales carotid artery is so large that a small child could swim through them, but neither the whale nor the child would enjoy that.

Did you know that if you took a blue whale and laid it lengthwise across a basketball court, the game would be canceled?
Fun fact. If you took every dodgy, corrupt politician and lined them up end-to-end in space… you should probably just leave them there.
If every human held hands around the equator, it would make a very long line.
If 8 billion people hold hands and every person would take up 1.3m, the line would go around the equator 250 times. About 6 billion would drown.
Solving climate change.
Only if all the billionaires and 1% top polluters are the ones who die
I wish.
True. Still: how much would the sea level rise?
Less than the icecaps melting.
No, a line is when there are people waiting in front of you, not when they’re beside you holding your hand.
Not if the chain were pulled taut enough.
But if you’re a link in a ring chain, isn’t pulling just tightening it ?
Well, now both seem right. Can we get a physicist consultation? If you pull a rope bridge from both sides, it raises it. But if low enough, that puts you in the water…?
There is a length at which the weight of the rope itself exceeds the force exerted to tighten the rope and not break it. So basically you can have a tight shirter rope, longer saggy rope, or you have 2 ropes.
In that case people would be dismembered, and then drown.
Would they though? Surely the people on land could hold the weight.
Maybe not across the Pacific, Atlantic maybe. Just fashion a human suspension bridge.
“I’d like to teach the world to swim,
Oh shit, was that a shark?”The Coke commercial was the first thing that came to mind even after all these years. I never knew as a kid I was watching a mass murder/suicide.
What? Did I miss something?
teach the world to swim
Just look at this picture, all the water around the world. It is swimming already, isn’t it?
