Actually, in Freedom Units it's 2,040,000 blue whales per hour
Nope. You're off by a power of 10 because 30 meters is 0.03 km.
So it's 2,040,000 blue whales per hour. ;)
But in terms of miles an hour? About 38,000. Or, as the crow flies, LA to New York in 3 minutes and 51 seconds. That's less time than it takes to listen to the hit Madonna song "4 Minutes."
Whoops, good catch. I definitely thought .03 and then just screwed it up anyway
Unless we're talking the radio edit, of course. Otherwise, four minutes is also less time than 4 Minutes.
I really feel like freedom units should be hotdogs per second.
It's cheating to use footlongs, btw.
Hotdogs aren't standardized though. But I guess we could agree to use Kirkland Signature hotdogs, you know, the ones Costco sells for $1.50 + soda at the food court.
How many bald eagles, though?
Depends on your deep frying equipment.
I hear the secret sauce on Big Macs actually contains some bald eagle (allegedly)
