MIT Students Are Crazy

[Vegas_Bug]

Fun fact, Google Earth has a measure feature to measure the distance of locations, and there is an option to measure in smoots

[narutocakes]

I love how they were all like 'ah S.I. units are so overated lets use our friend ' 😭✋

[Fidnnfu]

No one:
The American measuring system: ah yes, this bridge is 318 smoots long and three washing machines wide

[youtuberaccoon]

I can just imagine the conversation they had trying to convince him to lay on the bridge 1000+ times

[magnusgvrp]

Rip Smoot, He gave up his life to measure a bridge. Reply with an F to pay respect.

Other unis

The pledge will be to tp the dean's office
the pledge will be to drink a full keg in less than a day.
The pledge will be to hook up with someone before the day ends.


Mit:
Measure a bridge.... but ummmm with you as the unit.

[tarunpratap]

They could've measured it with a tape and divide the total with Oliver's height.
Still a great achievement lol
Maybe this is what feels to have friends.

[justcyan]

Oliver R. Smoot is 1.73 meters (5 foot 7 inches) and the bridge is 364.4 smoots

[picturebreakdown]

“They measured it in smoots which was the height of Oliver Smoot”

I lost it 💀


If you’re interested, I do MARVEL and Star Wars Breakdowns (if you’re not interested, just ignore this and have a great day:)

"Anything but the metric system"

[mayofthedead]

I was at MIT a few weeks ago and I kept seeing “Smoots” as I was walking across the bridge, wondering, “What on Earth is this?” Now I know.

I just went on a field trip today to a local university and learned a whole bunch of stuff, its SDSU in imperial valley if anyone is wondering

[rashmipaliwal]

So Americans can even use a person but they can't use metric system

[lilyylilliann]

I heard this story, it’s crazy how people actually used it

[itzsahith]

You're crazy
