Shout-out to bats, who are apparently super good at recovering smoothly from impacts with other bats.
You good?
Yeah man, you?
Yeah
Cool, just fly casual, maybe nobody will notice
Fernando Alanso confirmed bat
As a roller derby skater, I can assure you that crashing into things isn't always so bad.
Same with insects like bumblebees and flies. You sit outside, you see a bug approach at high speed and land perfectly on a leaf. Wow pretty cool. Now with slow mo you see them crash into the leaf, do a summersault, stumble around and sit down. It just happens fast so you don't notice, but they crash almost every landing.
When you evolve smol and don't have to worry about mass in physics calculations.
Square cube law works both ways!
Ha. Same with starlings. Known for the great synchronised murmuration patterns. I've seen them collide. It's not a big issue though, because they don't crash down to ground. They've got wings and just fly back up into the .. murmur.
They don't just hit each other. A few years ago, I was riding my bike (as in bicycle, not motorbike). A bat hit me head-on. Right on the, err, gentleman's sausage.
I'm still waiting for super powers to appear.
If you were hoping for Batman super powers, I regret to inform you that he doesn't have any. However, if your billionaire parents were killed in front of you as a child, you may be in luck.
Typical self made billionaire
What do you want? Sonar Cock?
Same thing happened to me. Right at dusk, just riding along on my bike and outta nowhere a bat wrapped its wings around my head. It felt like getting lightly smacked by a warm, moist leather glove.
It's like the orcas and yachts thing, but less polite
Granted: you will now lead the insect based agroindustrial revolution and save the planet.
Super patience? It appears you have it already.
Heisenberg? What if the sound or light from the cameras makes it hard for them to sense other bats, or become confused? :)
I know you're saying that in jest, but I would assume that the bat scientists used quiet infrared cameras for their work.
I'm only half-joking. Who knows... maybe some ultra-sonic transistor whine went unnoticed by human ears, but was deafening to the echo-locators... or infra-red blinding because we are wrong somewhat about how their eyes work.
They crash into motorcyclists faces too 🤣 You think big ass June bugs are bad, try getting a mouthful of bat with a wonky echolocation system lmao.
Yet another reason to wear a helmet instead of a brain bucket.
Seriously, I didn't even like riding with the visor up, way less comfy in general.
And free rabies!
Bats are cool. That's all I got that's all I need. I love you all I amsorry and deeply apologize how wrong in am.
They have magooithonic gene
bonk
Oh, a wise guy, eh? Woop! Woop woop woop! Rrrraugh! Rrraugh! Nyuk nyuk nyuk.
