I'm just looking for thoughts, this has been buggin me for about ten years, i mean really? By todays school house science rules ( what the Gov teaches us) , Mother Nature has been producing OU for a very long time, no?

If the fish can do it, why can't people?
this guy got OU on his hook http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahhOJWkgo1g
uh i don't get it
Thats my point, i dont get it I ther, It's really , really hard to find info on this, Tuna can reach speeds that would ruin school books. And so it is not publicized, to the point that the people making the claims have gone away, conspiracy theory? you bet. were they wrong? I'm just curious, in the first findings i read some time ago, it was said that "according to modern dat physics calculations , "this fish breaks all the rules", scientists could not and still can not explain this", and its hard to get info on it, hence the call out, it was previouslly "termed" somthing about 5 years ago, i forget the term, and i m lookn for it now, What I'm saying is hydrostatic laws based on thermo laws that are entangled with electrostatics laws which are based on string theory, etc,etc,etc, you get my point, Darwin . How does this fish do it? http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:Qedjj2D7sKkJ:news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/3683885.stm+tuna+speed+science&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=us
the schools of fish are reaching high speeds because of eddy currents formed along the longitudinal axis of the fish are created when they swish their tales - the sames vortexes are then used, already shaped, by the other tuna to further propel themselves. The idea is that the already created vortexes are what help benefit the speed of the fish - cavitation in the water.
It's the tuna out front that are using the most energy. Tuna in the rear are saving energy ..and tuna from the back move to the front as tuna from the middle take the front - thus tuna in the front eventually fall back.
The pre-existing vortexes formed by tuna tails are re-used by the other tuna. Imagine a smoke ring.
