Was this a common myth or something? There’s got to be a reason to test it
The paper’s introduction actually does explain it:
There’s also the story of Danish explorer Peter Freuchen, who claims to have used his own frozen shit to make a chisel to dig himself out of some ice. The paper takes the time to say that it is strictly about knives, though, not chisels
No way, explorers lying about their experiences? :O
The “well known account” part sort of makes it clear it didn’t happen to the explorer.
From the ancient origins link above:
So he claimed he did it himself as well as saying he knew how to do it because of the “well known account”. But also, anthropologists made shit up about the cultures they studied all the time, which is what I was actually referring to.
Did they experiment with composition of the poop? I expect it matters what you ate. I can see it not working if they were on a high fibre diet. They should try again after eating some sharp cheddar.
Sorry, I had to.
Looks at dog “now wear a shirt made from your buddy,and pull my sled made from your other buddy…” “We’re off!”
Does this mean it’s still possible that a poop machete or poop katana is viable?
At least for one swing I don’t see why not. I imagine your diet and coldness matters. Maybe more fiber makes it not be soo brittle?
Some dude at the bar would not shut up about it and the scientist is not one to let some motherfucker just stand around being wrong.
