Cow Tipping

Post by spiffyguido »

Being the budding engineer that I am, and having recently studied statics, I found this to be slightly amusing:

For those of us that that grew up on or near a farm, like myself, we know how impossible it is to tip a cow, but it's still fun to learn the statics behind it.

I'd be willing to bet it would be easier to tip some cars. A 'Smart ForTwo', for example probably weighs about the same amount, and a ForTwo's 'stability management system' isn't as advanced as a cows.
