You can dump a whole bunch in at once...

If you try to fail and succeed, which have you done?

I would say you succeeded.

There are 2 different tasks at stake.
1. the task you want to fail at
2. the task of failing task 1.

So you succeeded on task 2.

Au contraire Jonmo

Fish don't drown, they live in water....duh.

Fish do drown.....once a fish stops moving forward, the water flow stops and it can't get the oxygen out of the water....it drowns.

I think that would be suffocation, not drowning.

I am guessing:


=POWER(12,4)

Did I win?

How many golf balls could fit inside a commercial airplane?

In case you guess too low, I'll say:
=Power(12,4) + 1

 

[Scott Huish]

Nope, the right answer has already been guessed. 1, after that it is not empty. Even if you dumped in a whole bunch at once, after the very first one hit, it still would not be empty anymore.
