Wonder if it was truly ethical to hocus them that way (and anyhow, that could have been three champs abreast). There’s the old saw about the bumblebee that never knew it shouldn’t fly, and so it did.

cf. Flight of the Bumblebee :

Whatever its origins, the story has had remarkable staying power, and the myth persists that science says a bumblebee can't fly. Indeed, this myth has taken on a new life of its own as a piece of "urban folklore" on the Internet.
