How Cats Always Land on Feet

Scientists just discovered why cats always land on their feet and the answer is wilder than you

think. Turns out their inner ear has a built in gyroscope that activates mid

fall. They literally twist their spine 180 degrees in under a second.

But here's the crazy part. A cat named Whiskers survived a fall from a 32 story

building and walked away with just a chipped tooth. Vets call it high rise syndrome.

The higher they fall the more time they have to position themselves. Their bodies are

basically organic parachutes. Nature is absolutely insane.
