Apricot manner

Watching Trivia no Izumi tonight, I saw this rather entertaining optical illusion, assuming your browser chooses a suitable Japanese font:

Or going uphill:

In further trivia news, by harnessing the power of 200 standard fire extinquishers, you can generate enough upthrust to lift a man a whole two centimetres.

      “In further trivia news, by harnessing the power of 200 standard fire extinquishers, you can generate enough upthrust to lift a man a whole two centimetres.”

      Will it also lift the weight of the 200 fire extinguishers?

      They had the fire extinquishers stationary trying to blow a platform up into the air - apparently (it was all explained in the show) the thrist from an extinquisher is less than the — umm, inertia (?) of the device so you can keep control when using it.
