I heard this.
This is going on TikTok right now.
You've probably heard this before.
But when I heard it, I was just like blown away.
And I'm probably going to get the numbers wrong.
Okay.
But...
There was an experiment where they took like 100 mice.
Have you heard this?
And they would put the mice in a glass of water, and it would swim and try and stay up.
Like doggy paddling and treading water.
Treading water, right.
So they're treading water.
On average, I think the average that the mice would tread water was like 30 minutes, and then they'd drown.
So then they took 100 mice, probably not 100, probably 50, but whatever, there's a lot.
It's an experiment, they're mice, they're cheap.
So just before, and they knew from doing the 100, they now know that almost on average, almost all these things fucking drowned at 30 minutes.
So just as they were about to drown, they would take them out of the water.
Okay.
Let them recuperate.
