Description

When Gollum snatches the One Ring from Frodo (along with a finger to boot), he unfortunately plummets to the liquid rock below. Before his ultimate demise, Gollum hoists the One Ring overhead while he bobs briefly in the lava. But what is bobbing? And how do things float? Will explains to us Archimedes' Principle and we discuss where it is found in the real world through the lens of one of the the greatest novel/movie trilogies!Topics:Will's Birthday!Not doxxing our friendsSad lunches and garbage pail sushiNicole's Stew!Return of the King, babyCar-balloon physics experimentsBoats and SCUBAThe Electric Boy Launcher
