Social Distancing: Demonstrated W/ Mousetraps
This video drives home the importance of social distancing.
It shows 500 mouse traps placed next to each other, and each one has a ping-pong ball
on the trigger. When one ping-pong ball is dropped onto a trap, it sets off a wave of bouncing
balls and snapping traps that are flying everywhere.
Then they do a second version where the traps are placed further away from each other,
and this time the ping-pong ball goes bouncing past without setting off a chain reaction.
Social distancing works. We are all #InThisTogetherOhio. https://t.co/jU4ZAkm3Py pic.twitter.com/uKJtfi4cuP
