Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for May 27, 2014
Transcript:
Arlo: When a cat drinks, it curls its tongue back and touches the surface. Arlo: As the tongue retracts, surface tension creates a column of liquid. Arlo: At the precise moment the column begins to collapse, the cat 'bites' it off. This happens four times per second! GULP. Arlo: No, I didn't -- engineers at M.I.T. figured it out!
And someone got grant money to do that study!
