Fun Friday: Interesting Site About Physics (Strangely Enough!)

It's been a long day, but I still wanted to do a Fun Friday post. Today I wanted to mention a website that my brother recommended to me called "What if?" Its motto is "Answering your hypothetical questions with physics, every Tuesday."

Now, I'm not a fan of Physics normally, I must admit, but this site talks about it in an accessible, interesting, and funny way. This week's post asks, "What would happen if everyone on earth stood as close to each other as they could and jumped, everyone landing on the ground at the same instant?"

If you can even get your mind around the question, it's pretty funny, but the answer is even funnier. If you're interested, check it out. And either way, have a great weekend!
