A fish, a falcon, a cheetah, a snake, and an octopus all have the same problem - get from here to there.

They solve it in completely different ways.

And none of them use wheels.

In this video we break down how animals move on land, through water, and through the air - the science behind legs, fins, wings, jet propulsion, and a few movement tricks that don't fit any category.

What you'll learn:

- How legs, body waves, and snail slime all move animals on land

- How fish vs dolphins vs octopuses move through water differently

- Why wings create lift and how different birds fly in completely different ways

- How gibbons swing and why faster kangaroos use less energy

- The fastest animal alive and spiders that fly on silk
