Or at least the condiments sticky enough to stop a speeding caravan. And glue. I still think that's funny.

Climbing the waterfall of the ss with what equipment they had is also a bit out there..

I want to try the fork-assisted frozen waterfall climb someday, maybe on my first date with a cute VFD neophyte cartographer. Perhaps it can be done; it would be just a bit harder than a steep rock-climb, which, unfortunately, I've never done.

Plus I love snowy environments so that's a plus.

Theres about a .0001% chance that a baby could do that in real life.

It would be impossible, at least with current technology. You'd run out of food and water.

Another impossible thing: The eagles carrying people off. Assuming those were bald eagles, which they look like in the illustrations, they couldn't carry off humans.

If there were enough... I want a sshamh. If we were able to invent a way of growing our own food while in the air in some device, and a renewable fuel, it would be possible... Well, at least it would be able to stay up for a few months.

There are ways of "recycling" used water for drinking, methods used on spacecraft, but I'd rather not think about those. You could grow food in the air, but you'd need a seriously large craft, like a space station. It would be cool if Hector had built one of those.
