cats are often known for always landing on their feet, and being really good at climbing. but did you know that you could throw a cat out of a plane and it would survive? while no, there aren't really messed up and emotionally dead researchers somewhere out there throwing cats out of planes, studies have shown that cats can survive a terminal velocity fall, AKA a fall out of a plane... or even a satalite. the cat is able to do this by opening up it's skin flap things in order to glide like a flying squirell. or like this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttz5oPpF1Js

this is, in my opinion, fairly awesome. If I could do this i would do it ALOT. infact as soon as i am old enough to do that I WILL. anyway... i dont really see this impacting most of society except people who live in high rise apartments looking for pets.
