    Can a swallow carry a coconut?

    No it can't

    But Even if it could-where would it get a Coconut- In Mercia?

    Took me a minute.

    OK did you get my reference?


    A coconut is 23 times heavier than a swallow and swallows can hardly carry berries in flight.

    Swallows have very small claws which make perching difficult and so can't get a grip on a coconut.

    A Swallow cannot carry a coconut.

    or

    It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple
    question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a 1 pound
    coconut.

    Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here?

    FINE!

    Listen, in order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow
    needs to beat its wings 43 times every second, right?

    I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal
    food trough whopper! I fart in your general direction! You mother
    was a hamster and your father smelt of eldeberries.
