If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it!)
If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.(Now that's more like it!)
The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet (now there's something to visualize)
Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.
On average people fear spiders more than they do death.
The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. (Hmmmmm.....)
You can't kill yourself by holding your breath.
Americans on the average eat 18 acres of pizza everyday. (yuck!)
Every time you lick a stamp, you're consuming 1/10 of a calorie. (now there's a diet)
You are more likely to be killed by a champagne cork than by a poisonous spider.(and people fear spider!)
Righthanded people live, on average, nine years longer than lefthanded people do. (If you're ambidextrous do you split the difference?)
In ancient Egypt, Priests plucked every hair from their bodies, including their eyebrows and eyelashes.
A crocodile cannot stick its tongue out.
The ant can lift 50 times its own weight, can pull 30 times its own weight and always falls over on its right side when intoxicated. (From drinking little bottles of...?) (Did the gov't pay for this research??)
Polar bears are left handed.
The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds. That makes the catfish #1 for the animal having the most taste buds.
The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping the length of a football field.
A cockroach will live nine days without it's head,
before it starves to death. (Creepy!)
Some lions mate over 50 times a day. Butterflies taste with their feet. (Oh, geez!)
Elephants are the only animals that can't jump. (understandable)
A cat's urine glows under a blacklight.
An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain.
Starfish don't have brains.
Cheers!
