Remarkable Jumping Stick Of Para Baffles French Academy
A walnut branch over a yard long reportedly displayed energetic movement and leaped in the air during observation by the French Academy of Sciences. In a Nantes village court the stick moved without wind, then jumped several feet, and wandered across the room before ending many feet from its starting point. The tale parallels a Kansas drainage scare as Wyandotte officials investigated losses to a farmer when 160 acres vanished into a rising river canal.
