Topic Wiki

If your video is not embedding, see if your link starts with "http:" - if it does, change it to "https:" and it will work.

If a video isn't embedded you should assume it may be inappropriate for some people.

How do I embed a Youtube video?
Simply post the YouTube URL.
Alternately (actually, this may no longer work):
Click the "youtube" button on the second row on the furthermost left side.
You will now have the words: [youtube][/youtube] in your editor.
Now, copy and paste the youtube video id (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0&x=y) in between the middle brackets in order for it to look like this:
    [youtube]oHg5SJYRHA0[/youtube]
and leave out this part of the link: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="

Or you can paste the YouTube link, highlight it, and then click on the "YouTube" button. This will encase the link in the youtube tags,
Now just click "post" and you're done!


How can I search if a video has been posted here before?
This is not foolproof, but it's a good start.
Search for the youtube ID (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

FTFY (you had a 'start at' to start in middle of the video).
Or you can just embed it.

I watched the full episode and they explain it better. The forward thrust for a plane to take off comes from the engine, not from the wheels. The wheels just spin because they are in contact with the ground. If the ground is moving backwards, the wheels will just spin twice as fast without effecting the forward thrust from the engine.
This whole myth makes no sense.
Why is there even a hava amina that it would work?

Sorry :)
Why would anyone even think that putting the plane on a conveyor belt would prevent it from taking off?

Because they have a basic misunderstanding of how planes work?

Right, but once they get told that the "drive" is coming from the propeller, not the wheels, that should be the end of the discussion.
