Good thing no one risked boating before Archimedes invented bouyancy 🙏

I heard people used to just float around before Newton invented gravity.

But I'm not sure. I think that's just hot air.

That's brilliant

PS: English is not my first language so I had to confirm if "hot air" is an idiom

Boats float because of their shape, Archimedes is a bitch.

Boats float because an ideal boat floats, Archimedes and Aristotle are both bitches
