Hm, ok. Anyone who's watched the show before will know how all four tires on that Citroën blew out. This is from Season 2, Ep. 1, "Tintin and the Shooting Star". During a dream sequence, the heat from a VERY nearby star causes all sorts of problems during the dream: Pavement (Tintin called it tar) melting, animals panicking, even blowing out tires on cars. Ahem, hint hint nudge nudge. Why this was happening was what Tintin said: "The heat is blowing out the tires!" Why? Because temperature and atmosphere matter in a tire. When it gets hot, as in the case of his dream, the heat from the star heated up the air in the tire dramatically. That, mixed with the melting pavement, gave all the ingredients for a perfect blowout. Four, to be exact. ...but I think a lot of people already knew that. Just typing for kicks. ;P |
