Wrong way water fountain. This actually is brilliant
At this year’s Chelsea Garden Show, inventor James Dyson presented his MC Escher based ‘Wrong Garden’ water fountain. This is a great illusion and an even smarter creation.

The water actually is not going upwards, but the smart creation pump the water up towards the top of the ramp, where then it it split in two ways: one falls down the ‘waterfall’ and the rest slides down the ramp, with added air bubbles to make it look more real.

In fact, there’s even an easy “rule of thumb,” Wallen says: Clitoris-vagina distances less than 2.5 cm — that’s roughly from the tip of your thumb to your first knuckle — tend to yield reliable orgasms during sex. More than a thumb’s length? Regular intercourse alone typically might not do the trick.
This confirms previous research in the 1920s by Princess Marie Bonaparte. So guys, you now have a counter question for when women ask you for your size.

This video was produced without any funding from any outside sources. It was put together with donated creative time from a group with a desire to further public cognition of science.
Science has many amazing stories to tell, this is the first. The Big Bang Briefly.
