Drum, did you know that an ant can push an object something like 500 times it's body weight for really long distances? Oh, and sorry we turned your post into a behavioural debate. :)


I hereby propose never to use the word Horsepower anymore. Instead one shall refer to Ants as in Antpower (ignoring the fact that an ant only weighs a gram or so ;D) All in favor raise your hands

For those of you who think i've lost it. You are correct!!

Now if you'll excuse me I'm off to find an ant to weigh.! ;D

Soui, wow can't you imagine the car ads?

The new Infiniti puts our 52,922 Antpower, an incredible difference over the nearest competition!

I think I remember a guy pulling a heavy with some kind of harness (either a believe-it-or-not or similar show...maybe a world records show...might even be the same one mentioned earlier...)

Also, I remember a guy on a show eating a plane (some small-prop GA aircraft).  He had eaten a truck as well.

eating a plane? what was it made of?? I can just see it: "searching for that low maintenance, fuel efficient, inexpensive, light GA aircraft...Why not give the Piper Cake a try. It even doubles as an emergency rations supply"

Depends what kind of car it is.....
An ant weighs 0.1 grams
The engine would weigh 52922x0.1=52.9 kg (not bad)
The ants can carry a total of 2649,1 kg ( 52922x(0,1x50))

In Hp Nice sportscars have a hp/kg of 2/1 so it would mean that if a sportscar weighs 1500 kg  it would have a ratio of in hp 1,7hp/kg which is really good ;D ;D

Am it aking this too far? :P ;)

Don't know if im right on all the calculations it was kinda late ;D

Interesting!

My truck is 44tonnes, 420hp, I can't work out the maths, but , with trucks, it isn't the power figure its sheer torque that pulls such weights, not to mention gearing !!!!
