The Most Painful Plant in the World

This week Rachel kicks of the show talking about the bizarre theoretical phenomenon of Spaghettification, the process of your body being stretched out into a line of sub-atomic particles inside a black hole.

Victoria then takes us to the ocean where we learn about how the ear-wax plugs of whales can teach us about their life-histories.

Kirk then wraps it all up by telling us about the horrific experience of bing stung by the most painful plant in the world, the Gympie-Gympie.

I think I first heard spaghettification from the big bang theory a long time ago. Now that you've said it again, I cannot get the word outta my head 😂
