Can an object travel faster than than the downward breeze without help? I say yes, mostly because I dislike people who insist things are impossible.

I’d really like to believe that this is possible, but am deeply skeptical. The treadmill proof offered in this video is kind of clever, but I’m waiting to see this one in person before I’m convinced.
What bothers me is the people that are saying it can’t be done are not picking apart the science, they’re calling them cheaters. Do the experiment and see what results you get before tearing apart someone else’s experiment (not you Twee, the guys responding to and on the video). Science is about repeatable experiments, but that’s not going to work unless you actually perform an experiment.
