    If you travel at 80mph for 1 hour you travel 80 miles no matter what medium.

    How many times did they stop? Was it a constant 80mph?

    Jesus did you watch the video? The whole joke is the girl trying to figure out how far you'd travel in one hour at 80 miles PER hour. If you complicate it with stops, acceleration, etc. It's no longer a joke!?!

    If it takes two men an hour to dig a hole, how long does it take one man to dig half a hole?

    Indeed that is my point. People on here are making fun of a girl with poor math skills yet the guy poking fun didn't ask a logical question.

    Bingo. I'll add how long does i.t take a jumbo jet to travel in 800 mph at 400mph (the meterological conditions are not important)

    Yes, coz the funniest jokes are always logical.

    You've made your point Sheldon.

    But when I went to the shop to buy some for them they said they were out of stock. I must have gone to ten different shops.

    I just thinking bullying is wrong. Also intelligence has proven to be "plastic". We do not know if her current abilities are still the same. Also the big bang theory is Sh1te. I'm more of a bottom fan.

    An hour but you'd have to be at a constant 80mph which isn't possible unless it's a straight road with no traffic lights, pedestrian crossings or traffic

    She loves her boyfriend and does not want to just say "80 f*** mile DUH!" So she figures it is a trick question that she really knows the answer to but would rather be making out somewhere and if she answers really good, the making out will be great

    That sort of look is what I saw.

    If one duck sits on an egg for a week, how long does it take Paddy to complete call of duty with no eyes?

    Three months because Paddy is thick as a plank for playing CoD and not DayZ.

    How long does it take one patronizing dick to publically humiliate his wife, lose her respect and trust, damage his relationship, and reveal himself to be a total ****, while travelling at 80 mph?

    She might be thick, but she's probably a nice person anyway, unlike her OH.

    Have to agree with the above poster (Candie). As a guy who could laugh at the most unusual things, I didn't find the video that amusing. More of a 'I don't want to live on this planet anymore' sort of feeling, and that was down to the actions of the dude in the video. Right man, your missus is absolutely abysmal at maths and science and you've proven that, but you're the one doing anything and everything but concentrating on driving your mechanically propelled vehicle at 80mph.

    I won't lose sleep either way, but I hope it was staged or at least that this girl isn't going to rely on the guy for too much throughout her life. He effectively set you up to show the world you're an airhead, bet you can't wait to have his kids! I'm sure he got some awesome high-fives from Tyler and the rest of the crew when he showed it to them.

    Now, where are those happy slapping vids....:D

    Ah yes, taking the piss out of your wife and posting it online so the whole world can do the same.

    A real sign of true love if you ask me.

    Yeah he's in the wrong here alright but it's still pretty funny, even if she's just playing along.

    And as to the actual answer of the original question; (don't want to get all technical, but..:P) It would take one hour to travel 80 Miles at a speed of 80 MPH, provided that the car maintains an exact average speed of 80 MPH, and that the actual travelled distance is 80 Miles, not 80 Miles as the crow flies. So yes, one hour.

    She wasn't wholly incorrect when talking about wheel rotations.

    Depending on the diameter of the wheel+tyre the speedometer readings could be wrong.

    What's important is whether or not you have a lovely time when you're there or not.

    Cathy and the cucumbers seemed to have enjoyed themselves. :pac:

    You have to be joking?
    80mph for 80 miles means a constant speed of 80mph. No flat tyres, piss stops or even slowing at corners. 80 miles per hour

    Travelling at 80mph for 80 miles doesn't necessarily mean it will take you an hour to get from A-B though.

    They're on I-84 West, probably in Idaho, not the N1 during rush hour. It'll take them an hour to go 80 miles at 80 MPH. I was on the same bit of freeway last spring myself.

    She's adorable, though. ;)
