  Good thing no one risked boating before Archimedes invented buoyancy 🙏

    I heard people used to just float around before Newton invented gravity.

    But I’m not sure. I think that’s just hot air.

      That’s brilliant

      PS: English is not my first language so I had to confirm if “hot air” is an idiom

    I’d imagine people moved around using giant levers, his guess what?

    As a non-native, this is one of the words that make me cry.

    Let me try…buoyancy?

    Oh damn, I generally consider myself fairly decent at spelling but I’ve probably spelled buoyancy wrong every time I’ve written it.

    You know, those two times. I can’t say I’m often discussing buoyancy.

      Buoyancy. As in a buoy.
