Challenging the Wind: Can We Go Faster?

The video explores whether it's possible to travel faster than the wind using a sail-powered vehicle. Initial experiments with a caddy and fan show limited success. The team then consults an aerodynamics expert and conducts tests in a wind tunnel. By adjusting the sail's position, they achieve speeds faster than the wind. The video concludes with the idea of using a rigid sail for more precise control.
