Default Dec 12 MythBusters: Airplane Hour OT

Nothing to do with down wind turns, but ever notice how a helium filled
balloon fixed inside a car leans toward the inside of a turn, or leans
backward when a car stops, or leans forward when it accelerates?


Yep, and I have another good one for you. Inside a big motor home, on a
cold night, if you get in, and get the engine powered heater going, the
front of the vehicle will get nice and warm, while way in the back is still
nearly as cold as it was before you fired it up.

If you stop suddenly, all of the cold air in the back will rush up to the
front, and you will be cold again, almost instantly!
