Please do as ...uhhh...my experiment as described was more like those physics experiments - mostly mental, don't cha know - and so I would like to see if my speculation would hold up. Sorry, but couldn't resist, and spoofing a lab report is something learned long ago.

Now when the experiment was carried out on Brainiac, they actually had a small swimming pool filled with custard, and that's no mere trifle.

Flipped by that show a few times, but wasn't sure if it were serious or not. Not a big fan of 'Fear Factor' type shows, and so never sat down to actually watch it. Was hoping that there would be a "Mythbusters: Middle Earth" show in the works so that the stars, Alatar and Pallando, could examine such ME myths like Balrog wings and elven snow angels ("Hey Pallando, what do we have in store tonight?" "We're traveling all the way to the Helcaraxë to see IF elves CAN make snow angels. Plus, we're going to see how much sunlight it takes to tan an Olog-hai...")

To attempt this experiment on a small scale with plastic figurines might mean a change in the substance being used. I would suggest the head on a pint of Guinness as a suitable alternative for plastic figures.

That would be all I need. Would you like to hear me explaining to Ms. alatar just WHY I'm floating one of the children's toys on top of my beer?
