I saw that. The reason it lands butter side down is because the angular velocity is not enough for it to make it all the way around when it falls off the table/plate/mong. when you release it from a neutral position it's pretty even.Grimmie wrote:Mythbusters disproved that theory!
It lands butterside down when brushed off a table, but when put in a perfectly vertical freefall from any height, it's a 50/50 chance! Ha!
