perfectly timed for me to listen to it without the visual, forget everything because I have no memory, and then watch the boys say it to me again <3

I had lucky charms as a snack yesterday but it was the limited edition Lucky Charms mixed with Cinnamon Toast Crunch …so far my GIgract is holding strong

Hilarious as ever … and I think Henry still hits the ground first since he reaches terminal velocity quicker he’s been ‘going faster’ for longer and is therefore always closer to the ground right?

The plug might add some cushion for Henry on the long flights.

Acceleration due to gravity is equal for every falling object, so they'd both begin falling at the same rate. As velocity increased, air resistance would begin to slow down their acceleration until the force of that air pushing up matched the force of gravity pulling down. Force = Mass * Acceleration, so to counteract the acceleration of a heavier object you will require more force. To get more force from air resistance requires more velocity. Assuming the boys are both diving down head first and have roughly equal drag coefficients, the heavier Ben will be able to continue accelerating longer before the force of air resistance matches the force of gravity. So Henry is correct that he would reach terminal velocity first, but only because his terminal velocity is going to be lower than Ben's. (Though, since Ben is larger, it gets more complicated if they're splayed out trying to maximize their surface area and intentionally slow their fall) Edit: Forgot to comment on small animals part that started this conversation. Yes, some small animals can achieve a non -fatal terminal velocity, but even the smallest breeds of dogs are not among them. We're usually talking mouse-sized here. Cats are borderline and can often survive ridiculous falls, but usually not without injury and definitely not from skydiving height.

One of the most amazing experiments done on the moon showed that a hammer and a feather dropped at the exact same time hit the ground at the exact same time because of the lack of air resistance in the vacuum of the moon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7tEA8Vtc0o

If you throw a daffodil and a dandelion off the world trade center will they reach their terminal velocities before a terrorist is able to disable the autopilot?

Henry is reaching terminal velocity first because he’s the fastest man within 10 feet

I fell asleep listening and woke up to the conversation about the butt plug. I can't say I was confused but I was definitely aroused!

There are so many drinks on that table

I saw a real dandelion yesterday (99% sure). Hadn’t thought twice about them in a while and I gasped thinking “I must take a pic for Ben & Henry” so I did, but I decided not to send it because you guys have been through enough already. 💛🌼

2022-12-30 16:49:43 I am a gardener (professionally and personally) I come face to face with dandelions and daffodils 10x more than the average Joe & now they will always make me think of this whole thing. Thank you guys so much for that.

Also one time like six years ago, on Page 7, Holden had to come up with a name on the spot and he chose “Joe Shoe”. It was the worst but made me laugh so hard that I still think about it every few months.
