BIZARRE
FACTS
ü
If you yelled for eight
years, seven months and six days, you would have produced enough sound energy to
heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it!)
ü
If you pass air
consistently for six years and nine months, enough gas is produced to create the
energy of an atomic bomb. (That one's easy to understand, isn't it?)
ü
The human heart creates
enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 9.5 m. (And you
thought those Monty Python guys didn't do any fact checking!)
ü
A pig's orgasm lasts for
30 minutes. (In my next life I want to be a pig!)
ü
Banging your head against
a wall uses 150 calories an hour. (Still not over that pig thing!)

the only species that have sex for pleasure. (What about pigs?)
ü

spiders more than they do death.
ü
The strongest muscle in
the body is the tongue. (Hmmm...)
ü

holding your breath.
ü
Americans on the average
eat 18 ha of pizza every day. (It shows.)
ü

killed by a champagne cork than poisonous spider. (Moral: Mways be willing to
pay good champagne. Cheap champagne is not worth it.)
ü
Right-handed people live,
on average, nine years longer than left-handed people do. (So those teachers
that used to whack your left hand with a ruler and make you write with your
right hand were actually trying to do you a favour; the miserable misguided,
fascist, sadistic bastards.)

real leg leg crosser)

ü
The ant can lift 50 times
its own weight, can pull 30 times it's own weight and always falls over on its
right side when intoxicated (How did they know that?)
ü

left-handed (This means they live, on average, nine years less)
ü
The catfish has over
27,000 taste buds. (Are our palates just not sophisticated enough to appreciate
the complex taste of pond scum?)

times its body length. It's the equivalent of a human jumping the length of a
football field.
ü
A cockroach
will live nine days without its head, before it starves to death. (Creepy!)

ü

garbage-eating, lucky pigs.'
