Can you fly by hanging onto balloons? And how many balloons do you need to take off? Galileo reporter Jan tried it out - and it took a total of 210 balloons to lift him off the ground. Experiment successful! The Galileo reporters tirelessly travel around the world, uncovering treasures of knowledge and investigating myths - often through experiments. This book showcases a variety of experiments from nearly 20 years of Galileo. Some are everyday situations that take a surprising turn, while others are absurd stories that have never been considered before, along with fun attempts to answer questions that have always been asked: - What crazy ideas can pull a tablecloth from under a set table? - Can 150 toy trains pull a large train over 10 meters? - What happens to the body and psyche?.
