These little dudes can move 1.3 feet per second which is absolutely insane
Conversion from freedom units π¦ πΊπ²π¦ πΊπ²π¦ to metric ππ please
40cm/s or 1.4km/h
396mm/s.
Which is like 396/1000 of a meter!
Roughly 31 degrees centimeters
No
2 5$ Footlongs a second
Wait what? $5 footlongs are only like 6.5 inches long? Not that there's anything wrong with that length. It's above average really.
Gonna take a long time to move all their feet
Yeah the trick is you gotta decide which order youβre going with first
Weirdly enough there are studies about how millipedes and centipedes move their feet.
