  Researcher: “Well, you see, when hippos run very fast, there are moments when their four limbs are in the air, it’s as if-”

  Journalist: “HIPPOPOTAMOS CAN FLY!!! THE FUCKING HIPPOS FLY!!! A HIPPO JUST HIT THE PENTAGON!”

  One thing I learned from Kerbal space program is that anything flies with enough boosters

• Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  Is it even considered running if that doesn’t happen?

    Why would it not be?

  I am very certain that most animals can get airborne, even for prolonged periods of time,when reaching high enough speed. The trick lies in accelerating them to sufficient speed. Landing and deceleration can also pose a problem.

  • P00ptart@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I mean, if you’re just yeeting animals off a cliff, then they can all “fly”.

    source

    • lenuup@reddthat.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      The OP said “get airborne”. Controlled flight was not part of the discussion.

  Yeah they can fly when they poop and propeller-spin their tails.

  Fun fact: if a hippo runs fast enough they can travel trough time

  horsesandus.com/the-4-basic-horse-gaits-explained…

  Neat breakdown of walk vs trot vs canter vs gallop, for horses.

  …org.in/…/hippos-dont-fly-but-the-massive-animals…

  Non-nonsensical headline and brief summary of hipoos gaits: evidently they have been observed reaching a trot, which does include moments where two feet are coming up, and two down, thus for that brief moment, the hippo is ‘suspended’ or… “”“airborne”“”.

    When I woke up this morning, I didn’t anticipate I’d be spending 15 minutes reading about how horses walk, but it was well worth that time!

    It’s a screenshot of Tumblr tags, very common on tumblr to hide whole essays in tags

      Sure, but that doesn’t excuse or exclude it from being frustrating, annoying, and just generally unpleasant.

• gens@programming.dev ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  Ahctually it’s not running unless all feet are off the ground at some point.

  • lennivelkant@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Only for bipedals. Quadrupedal animals can well keep a leg on the ground at all times even when moving at speed. To borrow from another comment here: Would you call a stampeding elephant “walking”?
