Did you know that according to the theory of aerodynamics, and as may well be demonstrated by means of a wind tunnel, the bumble bee shouldn't be able to fly? Because of its size, weight and shape in relation to its total wingspan, flight should be impossible.
However, the bumble bee, being unaware of these scientific facts but possessing considerable determination, does fly. And makes a little honey, too.
(Read somewhere a long time ago and taken now from the windmills of my mind, or memory.)
