  You have a bubble
I must, therefore, burst it. I assume, that like all rational people, you believe that you cannot apply the principles of household applicances on living things. Put a cat in a refridgerator or a washing machine, and at best, you have an EXTREMELY pissed off ball of fang and claw ready to de-glove your face. (At worst, you have a useful thing.) Following this logic, one would assume that the vacuum cleaner works best on inanimate, non-living objects, as those tend to react less to the sheer shock value of being pulled through a giant tube into a storage bin.

You are wrong.

There is a machine, currently in use, that uses wire brushes to literally vacuum up chickens and... let's say displace, them into cages. You can even see it in action here.

Thank you, Bright Coop, you have given me new nightmare fodder for months to come. After all, if it works for chickens, why couldn't it work for people?
