I would suggest take a small pig and throw it from the top of the building. make sure the building is tall enough for your experiment. if the pig lands on its feet and can still walk..chances are it can fly. Otherwise you can send it Fed-X and in a sense say it flew...

Flying is simply falling but missing the ground. Satellites are constantly falling however the place they are supposed to land is contantly moving and as such, it takes them a long time to land. If you make the pig a satellite, it technically would be flying. Lol.

You know, they probably can. They just don't like to do it when all sorts of weird people are watching them. we should get together and put a bunch of pigs in a large white room with hidden video cameras, and i bet eventually they would think we weren't watching and they'd start flying.

basically interior the Muppet tutor. LOL Pigs are too heavy to fly. basically a flghtless chook can get huge and heavy. consequently it relatively is lunacy to point that some dinosaurs, that are huge and heavy animals, more advantageous flight from the floor up.

Buy one a plane ticket, and then tell him to call you when he arrives at his destination.

Only when dropped or propelled, and only then for short spans of time...
