Title: How many Blue Tits would it take to pick up a Disco?
Post by: phil_r on November 23, 2006, 20:38:25: Blue Tits can carry 5% of their own body weight.
As their average weight is 11g, each can carry 0.55 g.
The Discovery weighs 2,730 kg.

It would take 4,963,637 (4963636.364, to be precise) Blue Tits to pick up one of them.

:lol:

Post by: V8MoneyPit on November 24, 2006, 16:36:51: If there are nearly 5 million tits, they only need a piece of cotton thread each and it should do the trick........ now to go and test the tensile strength of cotton thread and multiply by 5 million........

But I am not volunteering to tie them all to the Disco :shock:

Arggghhh! Now look what you've done to me :lol:

Does the disco really weigh that much??
My RR classic weighs 2350 with me (100kg) my g/f (70 kg) and a small trailer I use for scrap.
Or is the scrap man shafting me?

The MAX weight of a RRC is about 2510kg, the MAX of a Disco I know is higher and I think it's about 2,700kg from a previous discussion about trailers. Thing is that's a legal maximum, anyone who ignores it is a very silly person.
