No one's going to point out the absurd starting assumption KE=mcT??

Why is that absurd?

You need a perfect transfer of the kinetic energy to the chicken for that to hold, not a slap

i love fully inelastic chicken

Yeah that's the part that erks me the most. Ain't no way that chicken is staying together.

And no heat losses from slapping the chicken either

And they're not accounting for any amount of cooling between slaps. What's the ambient temp? What's the rate of slap?
