Episode Description

In this Squiz Kids Science Short, Christie untangles one of science’s most popular claims — and asks whether something as delicate as a cobweb could ever build something as big as the Eiffel Tower. Along the way, we explore tensile strength, stretchiness, and why spiders make brilliant silk… but terrible factory workers.
