Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 31, 2014

Now that is has been 101 (102; give or take) years, do German military personnel still not dance tango in uniform?

They could use that wheel to power their computers,lights, calculators and other office equipment!

Does that mean that if they wanted to dance the tango, they had to take off all their clothes?

That hamster wheel is a great way to decrease morale by 1000%!

Speaking of generating power, we know of Horsepower but what about manpower? Think how many people we could put to work and reduce the fat off of if we built giant hamster and Samson wheels attached to a giant flywheel alternator. We could build smaller ones to install at spas and gyms to keep them in business and off the grid. This will never happen because the people are mostly opposed to ideas that can only serve to unite them. A war can unite them quickly as demonstrated in our past, when we had the guts to declare war and did not fight on enemy basis or silly rules of engagement!

Perfect for precision activities, needle threading, microsurgery and the like…..

Standing decks with low speed treadmills or other exercise machines have been around for years now. The intention is to fight against “sitting disease.” So, what advantage does the wheel design offer of one with a treadmill?

Don’t know what they mean by “productivity”. The only increase in that would be due to increased health and longevity. It’s well known that long periods of sitting without exercise is bad for your health in many ways.

Incidentally you can buy a combination desk/treadmill if you want to stay healthy at work. If you can’t afford that, at least get up and walk around a few minutes every half hour.

Seems like if everyone had a hamster wheel in the office1)..It wouldn’t fit in the cubicle2)..There would be a helluva racket going on..
