Upon entering, I saw two sinks immediately inside the door, two urinals just to the right of the sinks, and two toilet stalls against the back wall. I got up from the table and made my way to the bathroom. It's amazing how grease can make its way through your intestines far faster than the food which spawned the grease to begin with, but I digress. After a minute or so it was clear that I was dealing with explosive diarrhea. At first I thought it was only gas, which could have been passed in batches right at the table without too much concern.
At the same time, the downward pressure was building. There was so much pressure on my diaphragm that I was having trouble breathing. By the time I had eaten four overwhelmed plates of food, I was in real trouble. I had not really been feeling well all day, what with a bit of gas and such. Plate after plate of macaroni and beef were consumed that evening, I tell you - in all, four heaping plates of the pseudo-Italian ambrosia were shoved into my belly. We went through the line and placed our orders for the all-you-can-eat hot bar then sat down as far away from the front of the restaurant as possible in order to keep the density of kids down a bit. It may seem that the events about to be told have little connection to those two circumstances, but all will be clear in a moment. Wednesday night is also kid's night at Ryan's, complete with Dizzy the Clown wandering from table to table entertaining the little *******s. It was a Wednesday night which means that macaroni and beef was on the hot bar, indeed the only night of the week that it is served. A couple of weeks ago we decided to cruise out to Ryan's Steakhouse for dinner. Thank you, science.Now, I know that there is a lot of fabrication on HROT and am aware that a small number of things are total BS, but I have a story to tell that is the absolute truth.įunniest damn thing that has ever happened to me. Watch the episode of Smarter Every Day above to find out how, and have your life changed forever.
Which sounds like it might be tricky, but it actually just involves one simple and easy-to-access tool - toilet paper. And as we've learnt, that void produces splashback.Īll you need to do to avoid this splash is simply alter the surface tension of the water. Which means that when something is dropped onto the surface of the water, this outer film pushes down, forming a void around the object. With open water, such as a toilet bowl, surface tension makes the water molecules at the surface 'stick' together, almost like a film. So how do you fix the problem? Well it really all comes down to the surface tension of water, which is calculated by force per unit length. You can see all these experiments performed in slow motion in the video above. And interestingly, small, round poops that drop straight down into the water actually produce the biggest voids, and accordingly, the biggest splashback. As Destin shows with his oddly realistic faecal models in the video above, if your poop hits the water at an angle, as most do, it can produce a water jet higher than the original drop height - which means that, yes, your bum is about to get wet.īut it's not so much the type of poop that influences the size of the splashback, it's the size of the cavity it forms in the water. It's that slapping back together that sends water shooting up out of the bowl, and depending on the size, shape, and angle of your poop, it can produce some pretty impressive jets. All that air has nowhere to go, and so the discontinuity in pressure causes the water to slap back together. As you've probably figured out if you've ever spent time dropping objects into water, the poop splash is caused when your poop displaces water, and forms a cavity of air in the fluid at the bottom of your toilet bowl.
