there is that lynx (some other name) in africa that jumps like 8-10 feet and catches birds...I don't know the name but saw one once at Disney...I have no clue if it can defy gravity and changes its path in the air
Yeah - has to be some sort of creature with wings or wing like things. I don't see another way to do it mid -air as your momentum will carry you forward unless you can create drag to change course with wings or something. I am sticking with bats.
Nope
Well I am certainly curious as to which animal can defy Newton's First Law of Motion.
You know I almost guessed that. They must be able to from some kind of wing with parts of their body.
I still find it hard to believe that they can actually change direction without exerting some type of force
4. Cheetahs use their tails as a type of “rudder” while they are running. It helps them steer into the direction they want to go, much like a rudder does for a boat.
16. While sprinting, a cheetah can change direction in midair.

dang that is nutty.
OK, here's one I gleaned from a documentary last night: until the '80s and '90s and the arrival of Madonna, Celine Deion, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Shania Twain and the like, this artist held the record for best selling album by a solo female artist of all time. Extra credit for naming the album.
I really like James Taylor so I am going to guess Carole King (I think she was solo)...as for album titles I have zero clue...I also wondered about Diana Ross (but I guess she had the supremes)...I know Stevie Nicks went solo at some point but not sure how sucessful she was outside Fleetwood Mac
My first guess would be Aretha Franklin - I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You (album that had Respect on it)
However it sounds like it might have been a surprise, so it's probably not her.

What country won the very first FIFA World Cup in 1930?
Would never have come up with that.Wow, first guess nails it! Well done!
What was the name of the documentary? I'm always looking for a good music doc.
