Science implies that for something to exist it must either possess mass, energy, or a combination of both. It also tells us that light travels at (hud on...) 670,616,629.4 mph.

So my question is: where is the piece of mass, or quantum of energy that defines the speed of light. Or in simple terms where is that speed of light stored?

Because some animals have the required flexibility while others don't?

Severe blood loss? I guess it depends on the method and what the condemned man had to endure before he was nailed.

I think you answered your own question, it's not a quick death, thirst, starvation, exposure to the elements all add up I think. Maybe some blood loss if they sever veins etc in the wrist...

Why is it that every pub / restuarant / takeaway that's ever reviewed in the Evening Express is absolutely fantastic, great value for money and piles of delicious food?

(When in reality places like Soul and Revolution charge about a tenner for half a plate of food).

There was a theory that your body weight being suspended in that position would cause asphyxiation, and eventually the victim would be too exhausted to push their body up to breath anymore. But I'm pretty sure this was found to be bullshit, and it is pretty much due to the reasons already given.

There might be a market for an honest version of the Evening Express, but it would cost £2 a copy

Light is made of photons, which are particles (although they seem to think they are waves sometimes...) and hence mass.

About 12-14 years ago when I worked in a restaurant they got a call from a certain local paper asking them if they wanted to take out some not-all--that-cheap advertising slots.

The restaurant declined, and not long after that got a negative review in the same publication, despite being the only establishment in Aberdeen that was in The Good Food Guide at the time.
