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.

[-] MIDItheKID@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Did you know that if you took a blue whale and laid it lengthwise across a basketball court, the game would be canceled?

[-] suigenerix@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] vovo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I wish.

[-] vovo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

True. Still: how much would the sea level rise?

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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.

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Not if the chain were pulled taut enough.

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

But if you're a link in a ring chain, isn't pulling just tightening it ?

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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...?

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] rsuri@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

In that case people would be dismembered, and then drown.

“I’d like to teach the world to swim,
Oh shit, was that a shark?”

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 5 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] CheeryLBottom@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

What? Did I miss something?

[-] NeoNachtwaechter@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

teach the world to swim

Just look at this picture, all the water around the world. It is swimming already, isn't it?

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

True, Captain Obvious
