Episode 68 Monty Python and the Holy Grail
YOU JUST GOTTA WATCH IT. . . . . . .
"The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plover may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land? Are you suggesting coconuts migrate? Not at all. They could be carried. What? A swallow carrying a coconut? It could grip it by the husk! 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 one pound coconut. Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here?
Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right? Please! Am I right? I'm not interested! It could be carried by an African swallow! Oh, yeah, an African swallow maybe, but not a European swallow. That's my point. Oh, yeah, I agree with that. Will you ask your master if he wants to join my court at Camelot?! But then of course a-- African swallows are non-migratory. Oh, yeah... So, they couldn't bring a coconut back anyway...
[clop clop clop] Wait a minute! Supposing two swallows carried it together? No, they'd have to have it on a line. Well, simple! They'd just use a strand of creeper! What, held under the dorsal guiding feathers? Well, why not?"
