Is the embrochure tighter then bassoon?

I read on the Fox website it is, but isn't that impossible?

not tighter, smaller.

<Added>

Tighter = pressure, smaller = size
opening is smaller but just as loose (sometimes more)

wait, the size of your embouchure has a lot to do with pressure though. smaller size= more pressure.
Pressure= Force/Area

interesting how physics can be applied to oboe playing

Some are tighter, some aren't.

Some are tighter, some aren't.

Also, when you play lower notes, your embouchure is tighter than higher notes. And the bassoon mostly plays lower notes than the oboe. So, yes, it would have a slightly looser embouchure. However, when I say tighter or looser, I'm talking about fractions of a millimeter. There's about a nanometer of difference between the tightness of your embouchure for middle C and bass clef C on bassoon, and yet that nanometer brings it up or down an octave. A little excercise to prove this point further: on bassoon finger lowest B flat. Then, experiment with your embouchure. Looser produces multiphones. Tighter goes up the register. On oboe, your embouchure should always be tight. On highest G, you're almost biting your reed.

And on Ultra high C, you are dead

You can make ultra high C? I can only manage a very out of tune B flat.
