Remember science class? What about those huge textbooks that came along with the experience? It turns out that there are a lot of adults reminiscing about their school days, and they are bringing the books back out for a trip down memory lane.
However, a lot of what they’re finding is actually downright comical. Science book writers may not have much of a sense of humor when it comes to keeping the science accurate, but we do.
These are hilarious.

This belongs in a sci-fi movie. Who decides on the pictures for textbooks?
This diagram on pigeon wrapping is interesting. It oddly looks the same as wrapping a large sandwich.
#15 The pigeon-human hybrid
Who said science couldn’t include art? This is surrealism at its finest.
Of all the things they could have drawn flying into a wall, they chose a chicken. Science textbook artists are a unique breed.
Even science can’t answer this question. At least they admit their limitations.
#18 Gummy bears and loneliness
We can learn a lot from gummy bears. This one is teaching us about social anxiety, bullying, and peer group behavior.
The information is important to know. The picture, however, is hysterical.
Sure, they might be showing how vision with two eyes works. However, we clearly see lasers.

Fleming’s right-hand rule is important. However, this hand looks like it needs to be seen at a hospital.
Yes, this was found in a science book. Maybe this is how they posted ferret pictures before Instagram.

These two appear to be in a ring. We hope they brought their boxing gloves.
