Gecko nation

Science experiment, level 1
Recommendation level:
for self - not very much
for your enemies - prioritaire

This experiment is to test the gecko nuclear feet theory.

Crop hair very short. Make sure face is unshaven for couple of hours. Stubbly.
Locate glass panel at end of long corridor.
Change into trainers.
Propel self (or unwitting victim).
Note whether head sticks to glass. Lack of rebound may also be counted as noteworthy van der Waals force.
If head does not stick, try shaving head closer and repeat.

Disclaimer : A gecko has very dense hair growth on its toes. If you find that you don’t stick, you may need to grow more hairs. Also, check that the glass is strong.
