Maximum Exertion

Ants can carry up to 50x their bodyweight. The Dragon Boss is figuring out what that multiple is for him.

He's in Maximum Exertion phase, as Abigail's mom calls it, where he's trying to pick up the largest thing he can just to see if he can. So far, that's included pewter serving dishes, full water bottles and a very small bicycle.

It's even prompted Baleen and me to weigh the water bottle (4 pounds) and then try carrying something 20% our weight with just two fingers. No video of that, I'm afriad, but it did include video of Baleen making sounds oddly similar to TDB's.
