[@exessex3522]

Agree. [I did wonder though why he/she writes 'broadcasted' (sounds wrong) and not 'broadcast'' (sounds right)? Wiktionary: "The past of broadcast is either broadcast or broadcasted. Both are in use, but broadcast is much more common. Google Books search gives 326,000 results for "was broadcast", vs. 12,900 for "was broadcasted" = 25 to 1 in favour of 'broadcast'.]

[@deepzepp4176]

How many times have they trotted out most of these jokes. Hislop in the hat. Hislop knows something about pop culture, cue Mertons unfunny “shocked reaction”. Host and panelist’s “spontaneously” plugging their books. Same old Prescott gags. And Mertons tiresome “is it a dolphin in a bath tub?” type gags.

The standfirst for the BBC online story about penguins and seals says: "Fur seals have been caught engaging in an extreme form of sexual behaviour. Specifically, trying to have sex with penguins" I like the word "caught". Like they were teenagers in the back of a fogged up car at Inspiration Point.

[@op8288]

41:33 I should point out that Paul is wrong here. The chop isn't going fast enough to burn up on reentry, in the same way that Felix Baumgartner didn't burn up either. When an object goes through the air quickly, the object pushes the air out of the way. If the air can't move fast enough, it builds up in front of the object. At this point, new air coming in flows around this pocket of built up air, trapping it in place. This is called ram pressure. Flat surfaces have very large pockets, and if the object is pointy enough, like the nose of Concorde, then no air builds up at all. When air builds up, there's more matter in a smaller space than before, the air bumps into itself, turning speed/momentum into heat. This is the cause of the heating: extreme heat caused by extreme pressure caused by extreme speeds. About mach 2, which is 2500 km/h at sea level. Baumgartner and the chop are only going at around 1000km/h, probably less for the chop. As the atmosphere thickens closer to the ground, this speed will reduce to half before the parachute opens. So no, the chop wouldn't burn up in atmosphere. Sorry Paul. Ps: xkcd did the same calculation on his website's what if section

[@chubsfly]

No James baker yet

[@DuchessCecelia72]

The lamb chop went up in a balloon, it didn’t go through the atmosphere so it wouldn’t have burned up at all, it would just of fallen back to earth but would probably have been found and eaten by a fox!
