No. The speed of sound is 331.4 m/s and Fry said that the plant spurts at 345 m/s or so. In that case, the tree is quite a bit faster than the speed of sound.
Theres faster in biology, theres a jellyfish whose stingers go much faster than the speed of sound, they have to because there so small and have such a tiny mass.
I had a ferret... it used to bite my finger and lead me to places like the cupboard so it could get in, a bit like Alan's dog did because of the frog. It never hurt though, it just held on hard enough so you HAD to follow it =) Oh and the whole running inside your clothing thing IS true let me tell you. They love pockets and sleeves. Cool animals, but they smell horrible.
Not only do they smell horrible, they are simply cute, tiny, fuzzy bastards! A friend of mine has two; you can't go barefooted around them, they'll try to bite your toes off. You can't pick them up, they'll attempt to skin you with their claws, you can't have them on your lap, they'll jump into your face to bite your eyes out! They do indeed greet you when you get home: teeth and claws at the ready and probably just having taken a huge dump in your slippers.
My friend's ferret always tries to bite my ankles, every time I'm at their house and he's running about the floor unattended. If it weren't for that I'd agree that they're nice pets.
I've heard that before too...actually probably from QI. No moles though. I have a dog though and she's never bothered to test me for cancer. My friend has a cat as well and all it's done is chew up the cords to my headphones.
Needless to say I don't visit that particular friend very often anymore...
the thing i hate about them is killing them by accident.
they're so soft and squishy..they don't stand a chance,the poor sods.
the small path-thing to my house has a hedge next to it,and when it's night and damp i can't see the floor,or the snails/slugs and i hate standing on them. mainly 'cause i feel a bit sorry for them. it's like using a piece of damp paper to defend yourself against a bullet.

really steven? you give a two option question and penalize them for either answer that is the most ridiculous unfair question i've seen in Qi so far

@idiatico It is unfair, but you should keep in mind this is a comedy show, not a quiz show.

What about animals who create sonic booms? The manikin bird beats its wings in such a way, and there are crabs who do as well. Is that not faster?

They truly are shit pets.

@leckerwurstbrot Mine didn't do that. Clearly your friend was sexually abusing them hence the violent mood swings and anti-social behaviour.

you dont have a mole on your ankle, do you?
i heard of dogs(and cats) trying to do the same and it could be cancerous.
i dont mean to freak you out :o
if it does it to other people, cool. but if your the only one, no harm in checking it out.

But why, they are completely harmless. That is unless your a plant or a gardener, then they might be your worst enemy.
