Humans Can't Walk or Swim Straight

Just saw this news story: www.newser.com/.../humans-cant-walk-straight-scientists.html It's so true. Some mornings I try swimming with my eyes closed, and I can't go more than three strokes without hitting the lane line. But according to the article, no one knows why this is the case. And makes me all the more impressed with blind people who get around just fine.

  • I got really nervous for him at that turn, this drill is not worth breaking a foot. Also, I'm going to go ahead and question if he could really see nothing at all in those goggles. Even if some light shines through, that could give him a visual point of reference. But I did find his search for the block quite comical. But I'm still really impressed, and would like to see if he could do something like that in open water, or even long course.
