What about the pig?

If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it.)

If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more like it!)

The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet. (O.M.G.!)

A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes. (In my next life, I want to be a pig.)

A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death. (Creepy. I'm still not over the pig though.)

Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour [disclaimer deleted]

The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off.

(Honey, I'm home...(oh, right, forgot 'bout that))

The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping the length of a football field. (30 minutes..lucky pig! Can you imagine?)

The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds. (What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond? And how can something that tastes so well taste so badly?)

Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (I still want to be a pig in my next life...you understand, "quality over quantity")

Butterflies taste with their feet. (Something I always wanted to know.) Just what do flies taste with when they're landing on dead decayed flesh?

The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue.(Hmmmmmm......)

Right-handed people live, on average , nine years longer than left-handed people. (If you're ambidextrous, do you split the difference?)

Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump. (Okay, so that would be a good thing)

A cat's urine glows under a black light. (I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)

An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain. (I know some people that're like that.)

Starfish have no brains (I know some people that're like that too.)

Polar bears are left-handed. (If they switch, they'll live a lot longer, eh?)

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.

[raygun]

So, what about the pig?

[Ditter]

I guess a veterinarian is the one who figured out that cat’s urine glowed under a back light. A black light is what they use to see if an animal has ringworm because it glows too.

The average park bear will consume 300 styrofoam coolers in its lifetime.

I wonder how much wasted tax-payers money was used to find all this out.

You know this stuff HAD to be government grant subsidized.

One TF dragster's 500-inch Hemi makes more horsepower than the first 8 rows at the Daytona 500.

Under full throttle, a dragster engine consumes 1 1/2 gallons of nitro per second, the same rate of fuel consumption as a fully loaded 747 but with 4 times the energy volume.

A stock hemi will not produce enough power to drive the dragster's supercharger.

Even with nearly 3000 CFM of air being rammed in by the supercharger on overdrive, the fuel mixture is compressed into nearly-solid form before ignition. Cylinders run on the verge of hydraulic lock.

Dual magnetos apply 44 amps to each spark plug. This is the output of an arc welder in each cylinder.

At stoichiometric (exact) 1.7:1 air/fuel mixture (for nitro), the flame front of nitromethane measures 7050 degrees F.

Nitromethane burns yellow. The spectacular white flame seen above the stacks at night is raw burning hydrogen, dissociated from atmospheric water vapor by the searing exhaust gases.

Spark plug electrodes are totally consumed during a pass. After ½ way, the engine is dieseling from compression - plus the glow of exhaust valves at 1400 degrees F. The engine can only be shut down by cutting the fuel flow.

If spark momentarily fails early in the run, unburned nitro builds up in those cylinders and then explodes with a force that can blow cylinder heads off the block in pieces or split the block in half.

To exceed 300 mph in 4.5 seconds dragsters must accelerate at an average of over 4G's. But in reaching 200 mph well before 1/2 track, launch acceleration is closer to 8G's.

If all the equipment is paid off, the crew worked for free, and for once NOTHING BLOWS UP, each run costs $1000.00 per second.

Dragsters reach over 300 miles per hour before you have completed reading this sentence.

Top Fuel Engines turn ONLY 540 revolutions from light to light!

The redline is actually quite high at 9500rpm

The current TF dragster elapsed time record is 4.477 seconds for the quarter mile (06/02/01 Kenny Bernstein)

Putting all of this in perspective:

You are driving an average Lingenfelter powered "twin-turbo" Corvette. Over a mile up the road, a Top Fuel dragster is staged and ready to launch down a quarter mile strip as you pass. You have the advantage of a flying start, but you still run the 'Vette hard up through the gears and blast across the
starting line and past the dragster at an honest 200 mph. At this moment, the dragster launches and starts after you. You keep your foot hard down, but you hear an incredibly brutal whine that sears your eardrums and within seconds the dragster catches and passes you. He beats you to the finish line, a
quarter mile away from where you passed him. That, folks, is acceleration.

Think about it, from a standing start, this phenomenal machine has spotted you 200mph and not only caught, but nearly blasted you off the road when he passed you within a mere 1320 feet.

Now....., tell me about the time you spun the wheels and laid rubber on dry concrete.

I sure am not worried about the pig, I am worried about the person who timed the pig orgasm.

[Slump Tester]

lmao!

You have a point!

[fieldmarshaldj]

I was trying to figure out how they knew the pig was finished. I mean, did he roll over and oink, “Do you have a cigarette ?”

[fieldmarshaldj]

Of course, if piggie got to hit this, I say, "Oink, oink !"

[dforest]

I was trying to figure out how they knew the pig was finished. I mean, did he roll over and oink, “Do you have a cigarette ?”

ROTFLMAO! Maybe he asked for a stack of pancakes with lots of syrup!

[fieldmarshaldj]

Of course, for female piggies, it ain't no picnic, either, since they'd have their choice of this...

Or this...

Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump. (Okay, so that would be a good thing)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I thought it was white men that couldnt jump.

[ridesthemiles]

Having been raised on a midwest farm to the age of 19, we raised pigs.
NEVER saw a boar work with a sow anywhere near the time frame described in the story...

Wishful thinking???

[fieldmarshaldj]

Maybe the boar was a premature ejaculator ?

[Chickensoup]

THAT is fast.

[dforest]

LOL! Those pictures could be used in High Schools all over America to make a good case for celibacy!

Their are worse things than being alone!

[JoeSixPack1]

And 4 air bubbles the size a gnats butt in the hydraulic brake system allow each vehicle to run through the hay bales, over the tires and into the wall thus preventing further diagnosis.

[Past Your Eyes]

That last one ain’t right. Bonobo chimps do it all the time.
