Why do they call them "man-holes"? I mean they aren't shaped like men. 7.7

Re: Why are man-hole covers round?
thye are called man-holes because MEN (man kind) go into the holes into the sewer to fix things,
and they are round I'm guessing because it's easier for a human body to fit in a round hole as apposed to a square or triangle.

Re: Why are man-hole covers round?
And I will restate my answer, it's easier for a human body to fit into a circle.
It all has to do with the human anatomy, I think.
If you look at a person from and arial veiw, they look more circular.
It also could be why when people a fat, they are called round,and are round. Not any other shape.
And then if you choose to ask me why people are round,
well that depends on your beliefes.

Re: Why are man-hole covers round?
Some guys on the bus had this question at one time.
Their answer was that it was so the Ninja turtles could throw them :
It probably has more to do with the stability of the shape, though. A square has corners, and corners are a weak point.

Re: Why are man-hole covers round?
or if they somehow fly up a circle is less likely to puncture someone than a triangle or square

while cars try not to drive into the open manholes

Re: Why are man-hole covers round?
Mhm let's see. One of the reasons is that you can fit tools across a round hole easier then a square one. The other reason may because it doesn't matter AT ALL.

Re: Why are man-hole covers round?
The thing about tools is the actual reason. A guy who worked in one told me one time because he said someone is going to ask you this and it's such a stupid question but here's the answer.
