Oh, the new boss is going to be here soon. I hope nothing goes wrong. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:06 | |
You better watch out, Colin. I heard she's got big plans for this place. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:11 | |
Hi, lads. Is the new boss here yet? | 0:00:11 | 0:00:13 | |
I want to show her my magic jumping beans. Look at them. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
-JUMPING BEANS: -Whee, whee, whee! | 0:00:17 | 0:00:18 | |
-SHE GASPS -I think she's coming! -Argh! | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
ALL: Ow! | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
Yes? Ms Hucklebuck, here. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
No, just arriving now. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
It seems to be some sort of TV studio. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
BELL RINGS | 0:00:38 | 0:00:39 | |
Positions, please, everyone. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
I don't have a clue, either. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
This is Brain Freeze! | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
With Dr Knowles, | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
Professor McCork, | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
Colin the floor manager | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
and Ms Hucklebuck. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
Stand by! | 0:00:56 | 0:00:58 | |
Come on, everybody. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
-BOTH: -It's time for... | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
Today, we're asking, which animal can jump the farthest? | 0:01:07 | 0:01:11 | |
The animal kingdom is full of some incredible jumpers. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:15 | |
Tell me, which one can hop the highest, huh? | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
Amongst mammals, the klipspringer can jump the highest | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
relative to its own body size. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
This small African antelope is able to jump ten times its own height. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
The mammal that can jump the farthest relative to its own | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
body size is the kangaroo rat. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:32 | |
It's able to jump 45 times its own length. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:36 | |
That's amazing. 45 times? | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
I wonder how high I can jump? | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
Up! Up! Up! | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
No, I don't think there's much going on here, actually. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:46 | |
I can't seem to see anything happening. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
Oh, how unprofessional! | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
I think it's time for a break. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
And we're clear! | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
This is the brilliant Doctor Knowles, | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
our head of research and development. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
-Pleased to meet you, Ms Hucklebuck. -Hello, yes. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
Oh, yes, and this is Professor McCork. He's a scientist, too. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:10 | |
Sort of. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
How's it going, boss? Do you want a magic bean? | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
-JUMPING BEANS: -Whee, whee, whee! -Oh, jumping beans! | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
-Whee! -Hey, come back here, you. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
BELL RINGS | 0:02:19 | 0:02:20 | |
Oh, crumpets! Positions! | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
So, tell us, Dr Knowles, which animal can jump the farthest? | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
Jumping spiders can jump | 0:02:32 | 0:02:33 | |
100 times their own body length, | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
tree frogs can jump 150 times their own body length | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
and fleas can jump 220 times their own body length. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:44 | |
Wow! Nothing could beat that. Could it, Dr Knowles? Nothing! | 0:02:44 | 0:02:49 | |
Well, actually, there is one creature - | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
a tiny crustacean called a copepod | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
can accelerate to a speed of 500 body lengths per second | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
when it's performing an escape jump. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
That's the equivalent of a human underwater propelling themselves | 0:03:01 | 0:03:05 | |
over 800 metres in one second. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
Un-be-lievable. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
So now you know, folks - | 0:03:12 | 0:03:13 | |
the tiny copepod is by far nature's best jumper. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:17 | |
See you next time! | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
-JUMPING BEANS: -Whee, whee, whee! | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
Oh, McCork! You've done it again. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
Yeah, sorry about that, Colin. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
Still, though, they brighten the place up a lot, don't you think? | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
Oh, this is not a good start on Ms Hucklebuck's first day. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:37 | |
Chin up, Colin. Who knows, maybe she likes jumping beans? | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo, shoo, shoo. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
No, no-no. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
Shoo! Shoo, shoo! | 0:03:45 | 0:03:47 | |
Oh, crumpets! | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 |
