So technically, you could sink the whole US Navy fleet provided you have enough seagulls? This is dangerous knowledge if it falls in terrorists ears! :P

A Nimitz-class Carrier is 74 meters tall from keel to mast. 11.3 meters are already submerged under average load, leaving 62.7 meters of the ship remaining above sea level, equal to 62.7 billion nanometers. Obviously, this means that you would need 62.7 billion seagulls to completely submerge a carrier.
Show me a camel-jockey who can gather 62.7 billion seagulls and train them all to land in one massive several-mile-high pile on a boat, and I'll send a memo to President Barry.

@TheNilvarg Ok, it took me two years but i finally did it

I'd definately would like to see that on tv xD
''A mysterious tower of seaguls appeared in the atlantic ocean, scientists and phillosophers have tried to figure out the cause behind this strange phenomenon, but no conclusive evidence has been discovered.''

@TheNilvarg Why not just bomb the shit out of it instead seems more effective/fun.

Wow. My hair is 36 nanometers longer since the beginning of this video. I need a hair cut.
-
@intigfx Yes but you would need 1 billion seagulls to sink the ship 1 meter.. Not really practical.

What if i train the seagulls to be obese?

This comment has received too many negative votes show
a nanometer in 10^-9 meters. That's one billionth, not one millionth. He misspeaks in the film.

Ledflyd... I think maybe you misheard rather than him mis-speaking! He says a nanometer is "one millionth of a millimetre", not one millionth of a meter!
