I've never heard of comedian Mark Malkoff before, but I'm willing to pay more attention to him after watching him shatter the stereotype of New Yorkers as being some of the most ornery, mean people in the nation. His experiment to disprove this notion was to have people strolling the streets carry him the entire length of Manhattan, roughly up Broadway--and he mostly did it. He reached 140th St. in the Hamilton Heights neighborhood before the big blizzard of mid-12/09 hit, a distance totaling 9.4 miles.
To those that say this disproves nothing, fuck 'em. This is the very best kind of science and I look forward to testing it out myself, except in my case I'll be carried by eunuch slaves in a palanquin.
