Monkey Spunk

Woo! My favourite cartoon of all time is now on the net.

Mickey's Monkey Spunk Moped is one of the funniest things ever written. It's fantastic.

Safety Innovation

I have been considering the ability of chickens to slow their descent by flapping their wings in the context of personal safety when leaping from buildings or aircraft.

It occurs to me that a suit onto which many chickens have been tied / stapled / glued could be worn when leaping from a rooftop. The chickens would flap their wings, allowing the user to land safely on the ground below.

My main issue is that I am uncertain as to the load-bearing capacity of the laden chicken when dropping from altitude, and hence the correct number of chickens to attach to the suit for a given weight of person.

I need to do some experiments. I propose tying bricks to chickens and chucking them off of a tower block. This would be both fun, and genuine science with the goal of saving human life.

I unfortunately do not have access to any chickens.

If you would like to invest in my project, or would like to donate chickens for me to throw off of tower blocks with bricks tied to them, please email either cash or chickens to hereisalargesumofhardcashorsomechickenssoyoucanchuckthemoffofatowerblockwithbrickstiedtothem@rathergood.com

Grinfish has developed another amazing crab game. Crab Blasta V1.0 rocks. It's cool.
