During a test conducted in the early 90's the Univeristy of Gullabull conducted a study and proved that Wales do indeed backflip as this was a defense mechanism to deflect the torpeddos from the japenese whalers. It was later found out that they have a titanium underplate that insome cases can DEFLECT and then INFLECT towards the predators. Thanks :)
