Scientists at Rolls Royce built a gun specifically to launch dead chickens at the windshields of airliners and military jets all travelling at maximum velocity. The idea is to simulate the frequent incidents of collisions with airborne fowl to test the strength of the windshields.
American engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test it on the windshields of their new high speed trains. Arrangements were made, and a gun was sent to the American engineers.
When the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken hurled out of the barrel, crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens, blasted through the control console, snapped the engineer's back-rest in two and embedded itself in the back wall of the cabin like an arrow shot from a bow.
The horrified Americans sent Rolls Royce the disastrous results of the experiment, along with the designs of the windshield and begged the British scientists for suggestions.
Rolls Royce responded with a one-line memo:
"Defrost the chicken."
fomclmfao! All I have to say to that is, good reason to take a cab, grin. Nice one Steve mate.
That was real? ROFLMAO. When did we get high speed trains? grin
bout the same time you got high speed chicken, apparently.
I saw this on Myth Busters on The Discovery Channel. They performed the same experiment, but using defrosted and frozen chichens. I think the frozen chickens were faster and did more damage, but don't quote me on it.
Hahahahahahaha. lmfao! excellent post. *smile*
