Albert Einstein once said: “The important thing is to not stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.” So what's to be done with questions that seem too weird to ask but still come to us at night while we're trying to fall asleep?

And a person wouldn't be able just to play any sport we want. Having bulky elephant feet guarantees failure in the long jump – elephants can’t jump at all!
