Today, we are testing ourselves in the wind tunnel.

Why don't we start testing some elements?

Gav: That is the stupidest thing  I've ever recorded

It really was. It was what? 80 miles an hour?

Like, it was fascinating to see how the air

was moving around you, but it also just looked wicked.

- from a 90's music video.  - ( Dan laughs )

on a skateboard might be the most bizarre thing we've ever shot.

You know, that will be one of the most fun things I've done this year

with your smug face, with that flapping in the wind.

so we talked to a bloke who works there called Kevin.

Hey, so you're one of the aerodynamicists at Mira, right? Have I got that right?

- That's right. - Yeah. That's a cool   job title.

is to essentially characterize how vehicles behave

in terms of drag, lift, front lift, rear lift.

So what are some of the fastest speeds of wind you've seen in this tunnel?

Um, so we can-- we usually operate up to about 80 miles an hour.

And that's like equivalent to like a hurricane or something?

- Yeah, a light hurricane. - A light hurricane?

- A breezy hurricane. - They can go quite strong.

and fly along the floor  with a skateboard.

about everything and that basically makes my day job

so to have something interesting happen for once

And I bet in the-- what? 70, 60 year history of this place...

Gav: ...It probably not had been  done before that.

You may have very well set a record there.

It's quite an honor that you lasted in it, to be honest.

Thanks very much, Kevin, for letting us mess around in here.

Thanks a lot. That was really so much fun.

- That was a lot of fun. - Glad you had fun.

It's amazing how many of the things we filmed

is so heavily influenced by aerodynamics.

I remember I used to ride my bike to school,

I was, like, ten minutes late for school,

and the teacher was like, why are you late?

Let's-- ( stammers ) Let's leave that, all right?

we've brought on someone who is clearly never late for school,

- Thanks for coming. - Thank for having me.
