There is no evidence, aside from mostly unreliable eyewitness reports, that any cows have ever been tipped in this manner. In addition, there are a number of problems with typical accounts of cow tipping. Unlike horses, cows do not 'lock their legs' when they sleep. Cows lie down while sleeping [1]. Most of their sleep is very light and easily disturbed — typical of herd prey animals; they take only short naps at regular intervals throughout a 24 hour period, which means that at any given time, some members of the herd are aware and alert. ...

A Confederacy of Dunces is a novel written by John Kennedy Toole, but not published during his lifetime. (Toole committed suicide in 1969 -- perhaps partially as a result of his professional failure as a nascent novelist. Simon & Schuster rejected a finished draft of "Dunces" in 1964). Through the efforts of the writer Walker Percy (who also contributed a revealing Foreword) and Toole's mother, the book was published in 1980; it quickl ...

Cow tipping is a pastime allegedly common in rural areas, in which participants sneak up on an upright sleeping cow and then push it over for amusement. Some variants of this urban legend state that the cow is then unable to get up. The appeal of this myth derives from the belief that cows are slow-witted and top-heavy, and the corollary assumption that relatively little force would need to be applied to the top of such apparently precarious ruminants to tip them over. Cow tipping - Evidence that cow tipping is an ...
