They should throw a couple of live penguins in just to see what happens. The video it so you can carry around on a portable device, ready to show to any smart-arses.

That was kind of the point. The variations on twat answers are either:
a) The poles thing (although a lot of penguins live places like south america, the galapagos)
b) "Because they can't get the wrappers off". This is supposed to be amusing because Penguin was/is the name of an individually wrapper chocolate biscuit thing sold in the UK.

To turn round and say, "Actually, they do" and show them video of a polar bear eating a penguin would be more amusing.

Or, if it turns out that there is some undiscovered reason why they don't then the footage should reveal it.

Polar bears hate eating things that fly.
