The strength of an ant is nothing more than a myth

Usually when you hear the question: who is the most powerful on earth? Children, meet the elephant. As it is actually incredibly big and strong. Adults, taught by experience, in this case the ant. Indeed, the elephant, though he can lift and carry large trees, but the weight of this tree is only 5% of its own weight. Ant, if you compare in severity raises a lot more elevated and more weight to its own weight of an ant somewhere in the 40 times. In other words, if ant increase to the size of the elephant, the ant, the elephant will be able to lift 40 elephants, which is quite an achievement.





But adults uncle and aunt forget the proverb: "the mouth of Babes the truth." After all, you cannot just go and increase ant, or an elephant reduced to the size of an ant.





If the ant will be increased to the size of an elephant, he would be crushed, simply crushed by its own weight. The strength of a muscle and durability of a thin chitinous tubes-feet is not enough to hold even your body, not to mention weight lifting.
