Sometimes it DOES take a Rocket Scientist!!

Scientists at Rolls Royce built a gun specifically to launch dead chickens at the
windshields of airliners and military jets all travelling at maximum velocity. The idea
is to simulate the frequent incidents of collisions with airborne fowl to test the
strength of the windshields.



American engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test it on the Windshields of
their new high speed trains. Arrangements were made, and a gun was sent to the American
engineers.



When the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken hurled out of the
barrel, crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens, blasted through
the control console, snapped the engineer's back-rest in two and embedded itself in the
back wall of the cabin like an arrow shot from a bow..



The horrified Yanks sent Rolls Royce the disastrous results of the experiment, along with
the designs of the windshield and begged the British scientists for suggestions.



You're going to love this......



Rolls Royce responded with a one-line memo:



"Defrost the chicken."
