Chris recently shared this cool POTSC nugget with me.

Bumble Bees are not supose to fly. In fact according to physics, science, and the laws of aerodynamics, it is impossible for them to become airborne.

Aerodynamic engineers have studied the yellow and black insect and have concluded that “theoretically” flight is impossible.

The bee’s puny little wings and its big fat body can only mean one thing…forever grounded.

Yet the bumble bee has overcome the “bad news” about its fate and has learned the art of flying!

So when the critic, naysayer, pessimist or your jerky friend points out why you can’t do something…BE THE BEE!

    Wikipedia says your research is off, but… I don't think Jonah really got swallowed by a whale and that story is still true in a dozen ways. Giggity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bumblebee

    yes and bees still fly(in spite of their issues) and the point still stands :) btw, youre so busted when Jesus finds out you dont believe the literal jonah story :)

    The engineers involved in determining that bumble bees shouldn’t be able to fly were using figures and equations as applied to fixed-wing aircraft.  However, the bumblebee’s wing is NOT fixed, it can flap and swivel. It would have been more accurate to use the aerodynamics that are applied to helicopters!
