Mathematical Disprooofs

Over the past few hundred years irrefutable mathematical proofs that something will not work have been ten a penny. For instance it was proven that since the contact between a circle and a tangent was infinitely small there could be no friction and so locomotives could not work. Steam driven ships could not cr0ss the Atlantic. Lord Kelvin mathematically proved that mechanical flight was impossible and that the sun would burn out in a million years. It was proved that the bumblebee could not fly. Descartes proved mathematically to Empress Catherine that there was no God.

I suggest that an experiment be conducted, and then it can be shown mathematically that this method does work.
