French scientist Fred Monsonnec has carried out an experiment in his bathtub, in order to confirm the theorem of Kutta-Jukowski. (Never mind what the theorem is, this has no bearing on today's journal.)
So he made a short video about it (1:18) and posted it on youtube. Here it is, if you are interested:

Actually, even if you aren't interested, please do visit it.
Didn't work? Chances are you are living in Germany then.
Thank you GEMA for protecting the interests of the Isley Brothers 
Also thank you for supporting my scientific curiosity 
So I will rush out and buy a CD now eh, will I? Scratch it, I'm not even supposed to know whose music was used as a soundtrack. At least I do know what experiment was being carried out 
I will sleep well tonight, with the knowledge that the world is a safe and happy place.
The video was linked from Dr Goulu's post on why things can fly:

And the cabaret singer from the journal title is Sid der Liedermacher:
