Do you know that:
1. The Spanish national anthem has no words
2. Honey does not spoil. You could feasibly eat 3000 year old honey.
3. Dead people can get goose bumps
4. A small percentage of the static you see on
"dead" tv stations is left over radiation from the Big Bang. You're
seeing residual effects of the Universe's creation.
5. When we breathe through our nose, we always
inhale more air from one nostril than with the other one — and this
changes every 15 minutes.
6. If you were to remove all of the empty space
from the atoms that make up every human on earth, the entire world
population could fit into an apple.
7. There are more possible iterations of a game of chess than there are atoms in the known universe.
8. If you somehow found a way to extract all of the
gold from the bubbling core of our lovely little planet, you would be
able to cover all of the land in a layer of gold up to your knees
9. It would take 1,200,000 mosquitoes, each sucking once, to completely drain the average human of blood
10. Written language was invented independently by the Egyptians, Sumerians, Chinese, and Mayans.
11. To know when to mate, a male giraffe will
continuously headbutt the female in the bladder until she urinates. The
male then tastes the pee and that helps it determine whether the female
is ovulating.
12. It can take a photon 40,000 years to travel from
the core of the sun to the surface, but only 8 minutes to travel the
rest of the way to earth.
