Interesting Facts

I know most of these already but I thought it's fun to put them here.

1. It is impossible to lick your elbow.

2. A crocodile can't stick its tongue out.

3. A shrimp's heart is in its head.

4. In a study of 200,000 ostriches over a period of 80 years, no one reported a single case where an ostrich buried its head in the sand.

5. It is physically impossible for pigs to look up into the sky.

6. A pregnant goldfish is called a twit.

7. More than 50% of the people in the world have never made or received a telephone call. (I'm one of the few lucky ones. Yay!)

8. Horses can't vomit. (I wanna be a horse. Then I can drink all I want and won't get sick.)

9. Sixth sick sheik's sixth sheep's sick is said to be the toughest tongue twister in the English language. ( Bleagh. Say what? I don't like tongue twister...)

10. If you sneeze too hard, you can fracture a rib. If you try to suppress a sneeze, you can rupture a blood vessel in your head or neck and die. If you keep your eyes open by force, they can pop out. (I know this a few years back and whenever I sneeze, I try not to sneeze too hard and try not to surpress them at the same time. Get paranoid sometimes...)

11. Rats multiply so quickly that in 18 months, two rats could have over a million descendants.

12. Wearing headphones for just an hour will increase the bacteria in your ear by 700 times.

13. If the government has no knowledge of aliens, then why does Title 14, Section 1211 of the Code of Federal regulations, implemented on July 16, 1969, make it illegal for U.S. citizens to have any contact with extraterrestrials or their vehicles? (Aliens do not exist!! I don't believe in them. Damn people are delusional...)

14. In every episode of Seinfeld there is a Superman somewhere.

15. A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why. (Serious? Now this I don't know. I'm so gonna buy me a duck and lock it in a room)

16. 23% of all photocopier faults worldwide are caused by people sitting on them and photocopying their butts.

17. Most lipstick contains fish scales. (Aman doesn't know this... Haha)

18. Like fingerprints, everyone's tongue print is different. (Oh, really? Syiq, can I check your tongue to see if this is true? Haha.)

19. Over 75% of people who read this will try to lick their elbow. (Damnit! Why do I have to check every single time?)
