Strong Ants: Difference between revisions

Ants are able to carry several times their own body weight. In fiction, especially in cartoons, this is exaggerated for fun, making them able to carry a whole pie/banana/chicken/watermelon/whatever. Often, they'll steal some picknickers' food. This sometimes applies to [[Attack of the 50 Foot Whatever|giant ants]], in blatant defiance of the [[Square -Cube Law]]. That itself is responsible for the fact that normal-sized ants have such good lifting abilities.

Essentially, [[Hollywood Science|Hollywood Logic]] goes, "If normal ants can carry big loads despite their small size, huge ants can carry ''enormous'' loads!", whereas [[Real Life]] Logic goes, "Ants can carry ''relatively'' big loads ''[[Square -Cube Law|because of]]'' their small size."
