Snails slide on that layer of slime they produce for their pseudo foot they glide on. Like gagging a maggot. What could that be? For maggots it is nice fresh living flesh that gags them. For snails? They can glide over a sharp razor and not be cut. So Horace needs to keep testing to see the mechanism that caused the flip.
