i just wanted to know because people are always using the phrase "yeah i'll do this, when pigs fly." so they always end up doing it so did a pig really fly or what?

No, pigs don't fly.
Apparently, the people that you know end up doing things that they don't intend to do. At some point you would think that they would learn to keep their mouths shut so they don't lose face. You and I both know better, right?

No pigs cannot fly. They are much too heavy since they don't have hollow bones like birds do. Also they are not shaped in such a way as to allow for flight. Note a birds aerodynamic body shape. Finally they don't have wings or anything that could function as a wing or propeller to create lift and propel them into and through the air.

not now persay. at the moment their is no way for pigs to fly. but through out evolution if they have enough predator prey reaction on the ground, in only a few million years or so pigs might develop wings and fly. (O and a few million years is a small amount through out the time of evolution and science, FYI)

Yeah well they say that because pigs will never really fly. So, I guess it means whatever they said they will do when pigs fly, will never get done.

No. As far as I know pigs do not fly. They would need wings and a slick coating of feathers (for wind resistance *I think*). Also, they would have to be extremely light in order to support themselves in the air. I hope this helps!

they fly when you make em but if a pig got bred supersmall and then got bred with a bird and the pig got wings and hollow bones and it only weighed 1 or 2 pounds it might fly

Is there a teeny tiny possibility that a pig really flies?

Yes, they can. The screeners at the airport are only looking for terrorist. Personalities that are undesirable are allowed on airplanes.
