    I actually said ‘they did the monster maths’, lol

    Pedantry aside, they did indeed do the maths, though :)

    Most things don’t scale linearly with size.

      Given how the snail moves I feel like it’s an accurate assumption since each pull is x% longer

        I think friction and mass will affect those pulls non-linearly, probably to the point of the snail not able to even move. See, now you’ve made me go and ruin the whole cartoon premise!

          Your correct I didn’t really think of mass and friction, good catch

          Now assume ideal snail

      I think metric is not your native system.

      45 km/h is very very fast, like world record fast.

      A jog is more like 12 km/h
