My fave part about What If? is that it gets such a simple question - what height would humans be if they kept growing through their whole development period - and two paragraphs it's using part of the Death Star as a comparison.

@mastertdi Any points for the whole "your heart would explode" thing?

@ceruleanspark "Actual humans wouldn't be able to grow to such heights. Thanks to the square-cube law, our bones would be too thin to support our weight and our hearts would be unable to pump blood around our bodies. Even breathing would be difficult; we might be able to position ourselves to keep our airways opened, but to breathe in a lungful of air would require very high airflow rates; we'd experience tornado winds all the way down our airways."

@mastertdi that'd be pretty cool. Tornado winds in your airways sounds like fun

@ceruleanspark Isn't that one of those books by that guy that hates gay people
Tuesday, 31-Dec-13 18:08:58 UTC from web-
@mastertdi Yes, but that doesn't have any bearing on the content of the books themselves

@ceruleanspark Yeah I wasn't saying it was, I just thought I recognised the name
