One thing that surprised me was when a lot of us tried the tug of war with the pulley system. It surprised me that even though there were 6 of us against 1 that we weren't able to win. Even though the pulley was rigged for the one side to have 5 times the strength I thought that 6 would be able to overcome that but it didn't.

We had started off with like 4 people pulling against the 1. At that point I thought it would be a toss up as to who was going to win. Obviously, it wasn't, William won very easily. Then we added 2 more people and I thought we would for sure get it, but William still won pretty easily. I feel like this would be a great demonstration in a science classroom.
I thought that was a very fun demonstration. Especially since some of us went to the Maritime Museum and we’re looking at some of the old pulley designs that they used on the old ships. This just shows how useful they are.
