      Its danish for "PLay WEll" aka Danish "LEg GOdt" = LE-GO.
      And when it comes to LEGO technique its classed as 'illegal' if it puts stress on the elements used; these are avoided by LEGO designers as over time, they would cause the pieces to break or deform if its intended as a sale construction-
      example LEGO designer would not make a abc carbuild design motodriven kit that is centered aroundfx 100.000 rpm as the tires would simply fly oof with such forces. when its intended to be sold as construction kit, it need to be safe for the masses and be usefull as intended, but as always you can go berserk with your lego and build whatever your mind can imagine and repurpose your bricks.. that is the whole incentive with LEGO.. that you can repurpose your bricks and even suit it up with individuel things, that aint intended for a stand alone kit..
      Its doesnt take a Phd to conclude that LEGO designers & backland are just as big a fan of this channel as everybody else, and likely bigger as its their passion -
      its f'ocking gobsmacking to see the construction channelholder delivers and the way he modify things to suit the purpose. (extremely fascinating)

      This is also why most space stations in SF are wheels or giant tubes.
      Because they would be very big even relative slow rotation would stick you to the rim and simulate gravity.
      Spin faster and you get more g.
