In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings how many times to carry these through the air...

According to Monty Python's In Search of the Holy Grail, there is a difference....

he he how about lets play the shell game and see whats under the coconuts!!! goooddd oneee!!!!

Uhmmmmm, lets figure this out...

A European swallow must beat its wings 43 times per second to maintain air speed velocity but this 5 ounce bird can't possibly carry a one pound coconut.  So unless there are multiple swallows carrying these say, under their dorsal guiding feathers, the answer is unclear.  

Alanna, I hope you are offering a special prize to those of us who made a valiant effort!!!

Just the answer I was hoping for!  

You see, this is how we weed out the cool kids

Monty Python might be nerdy and outdated humor but I love it all the same!

"I don't know."  and then be propelled into a chasm.

I love Monty Python, always have and always will.

Good humor is never dated.

.......no, green!  A-H-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h

You are correct, Mr. Fisher, it's never dated.

When today's teenager is compelled to fall off the couch in hysterics, you know it's timeless.
