In this week's show we answer three questions from Leo, Dragon and Cecily with help from special guest experts Professor Schmitt and Doug Millard from the Science Museum in London. Professor Schmitt is a world expert on skateboards and has been making them for decades - he gives us the low down on how they were invented. Doug Millard looks after the airplane collection at the Science Museum in London and chats hoverboards. We find out why crabs walk sideways, as well as what the biggest crabs on land and sea are – there’s one that is as wide as a giraffe is tall!We delve into the history of skateboards and talk about the man who crossed the Channel on a hoverboard. Social media:Instagram: @everythingunderthesunpodTwitter: @everythingutsFacebook: @everythingunderthesunbyMollyOldfieldWebsite: www.everythingunderthesun.co.ukFind out how to submit an answer on our website.Molly Oldfield studied History at Oxford before becoming a QI elf, writing and researching questions for the BBC quiz show for twelve years.
