Scientists Discover Fourth Law of Motion: Everything Falls Up on Tuesdays!
In a mind-boggling turn of events that threatens to turn our understanding of physics on its head, scientists have announced the discovery of a previously unknown ‘Fourth Law of Motion’. But that’s not all! As the groundbreaking revelation suggests, everything falls up, not down – but only on Tuesdays!
Remember the golden rule we learnt in school – what goes up must come down? Well, you can toss that out of the window, and if you do it on a Tuesday, it might not come back down!
Crack teams of scientists from around the globe were involved in this astonishing discovery, detonating common logic and sending shockwaves through the scientific community. One Blackboard Mastermind, Professor Ludwig Von-Heisenfluff, gave us a quick rundown of the rules of motion for those of us who were busy doodling in physics class. “First is inertia, things keep doing what they’re doing unless something makes them do otherwise. Second is force, push or pull equals rapidity of motion. Third’s action and reaction, everything’s got an equal and opposite response,” he explained.
The professor, who previously believed only in the original Three Laws and started his scientific journey with Newton’s Apple Confession, said. “Things have only fallen down because we thought we knew they should. We’d always overlooked Tuesdays, and now we know why.”
Just how did scientists stumble upon this bedazzling concept, you ask? Well, it all started with a rogue pancake. Professor I.M. Flippin was flipping pancakes for his breakfast one fateful Tuesday when he observed an anomaly. Ignoring the decades-old tradition, his pancake didn’t fall flat on his face. Instead, it levitated, then began to ascend!
“First, I thought it was an illusion, a mere trick of the morning light. But when my coffee followed suit, I knew something defied the laws of physics,” recalled Professor Flippin. “My hypothesis was fortified the next Tuesday when my yellow rubber-duck bobbed upside down in the bathtub! I knew I was onto something gigantic.”
That started a roller-coaster of intensive research and tons of upside-down Tuesdays. Finally, after countless Tuesdays and tons of floating objects later, the verdict arrived in all its splendid glory. Every law has an exception, and the laws of physics, it seems, are no different. “The universe has a peculiar sense of humor. It respects no day but Tuesday for a game of reverse gravity!” quipped Professor Von-Heisenfluff.
This unprecedented Law of Upward Falling has not been without its skeptics in the world of science. Critics argue the evidence is flimsy and unreliable. There’s a Tuesday Truther movement growing, out to debunk the Upward Falling theory. Yet every Tuesday, new reports of floating coffee mugs and soaring toast are pouring in from across the globe.
But perhaps, just perhaps, you should test it for yourself! So, next Tuesday, why not take a leap of faith and see if you float? If it’s true, one thing’s for certain – our concepts of reality are about to be turned upside-down, or should we say, upside-up.
As Professor Von-Heisenfluff added with a twinkling gaze, “Physics, as we knew it, has just made way for Phizz-ics! And remember folks, you heard it here first in the Secret Informer!”
