    RE: A canary

    If the airflow blows a canary off his perch, then the velocity of that air can be measured as to how far he falls.

    But if he is dead when he reaches the floor, theres gas in the air flow, by that time the person measuring the velocity of air will be in overcome. na yu know. :D :D :D

    fluid velocity

    just not very viscous fluids like air for instance.

    Pressure would be measured by a barometer
