Pound for pound, this makes it one of the strongest animals on the planet. For reference, if a 90 kg (200 lb) male human could do the same, he would be able to lift 76,500 kg or 170,000 lbs. (QF: 721) 2. Cats are the only known animal, including humans, that prefer to be given things freely, rather than needing to do some task to get them. Don’t believe us? Google Contrafreeloading if you’re interested in learning more.) (QF: 445) 3. Wombat poop is cubic. (QF: 455) 4. Hippopotamus kill more people in Africa than any other large animal, including more than lions, crocodiles, and elephants. (QF 497) 5. Wild American bison, often incorrectly called buffalo, are one of the most dangerous animals to encounter in the United States. In Yellowstone National Park alone, nearly five times as many people are killed by bison than by bears every year. The bison can reach speeds of up to 35 miles per hour and are surprisingly nimble, making them difficult to avoid if they attack, which they do with little provocation. 6. The testes of the Right whale are the largest of any animal, each weighing around 500 kg (1,100 lb). 7. Animals such as dogs, rabbits, rodents, gorillas, etc. often eat their poop to maintain proper health. For animals like rabbits, who eat a lot of plants, their poop contains quite a bit of undigested plant matter; so eating their poop is a nice easy way to get more out of the food they have available. For other animals, like dogs, their poop can also be very vitamin rich with the bacteria in their intestines producing essential vitamins they wouldn’t get otherwise. Dogs particularly like cat poop because it is very high in protein. 8. Mouse urine glows under florescent light. Further, despite thei

For reference, the largest nuclear explosion ever detonated (the Tsar Bomba by the Soviet Union) produced 50 megatons of TNT worth of energy. So assuming the Earth wouldn’t be obliterated in the process, it would take about 12,657,000,000,000,000 of those nuclear bombs detonated at the correct location to stop the Earth in its tracks. 2. In 2011, astronomers discovered an enormous 12 billion year old water reservoir floating in space estimated to be about the volume of 140 trillion Earth oceans! This further confirmed the theory that water has been present in the universe for much of its existence, with our universe about 13.8 billion years old. (QF 723) 3. Russian cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev has spent more time in space than any other human in history. How long? 803 days, 9 hours and 39 minutes. That is approximately 2.2 years, over the span of six spaceflights. (QF 775) 4. You are simultaneously hurtling around the sun at 66,600 mph while sitting on a rock that is spinning at 1,070 mph. On top of that, our whole solar system is rocketing through space around the center of the Milky Way at around 559,234 mph. On top of that, our galaxy is hurtling through space at around 671,080 mph, with respect to our local group of galaxies. On top of that, for all we know, our entire Universe is hurtling through some unknown medium at some other ridiculous speed. 5. It takes approximately 225 million Earth years for our solar system to make one trip around the Milky Way. Our solar system has made this trip approximately 20.4 times since it formed about 4.6 billion Earth years ago. 6. In 5 to 6 billion years, the Sun will be around the peak of its Red Giant phase, and according to many of the latest models, even with the Sun losing quite a bit of mass during this process, thus making the Earth’s orbit farther out

→Subscribe for new videos every d→’s intelligence The first part of the word comes from the Latin “sapiens”, meaning “wise”. (QF 640) 2. A contronym is a word that can be its own opposite for example, “left” can mean to “depart” and “remain”. (QF 430) 3. You may have heard that “swag” comes from a 1960s acronym for “Secretly We Are Gay”. In fact, the noun, “swag”, dates back at least to the 14th century meaning “bulky bag”. It then morphed into meaning a “blustering fellow” by the late 16th century and by the late 18th century had come to mean “ornamental festoon” (festoon meaning some sort of adornment like flowers or ribbons and other decorations). (QF 664) 4. “Are you as bored as I am?” read backwards is the same sentiment, just one is introspective. (QF 624) 5. You may have heard that the longest English word in which all the letters are in alphabetical order with no letter repeated is “almost.” Well, almost. The actual winner is Aegilops, the name of a genus of flowering plants in the grass family, Poaceae. Aegilops comes from the Greek aegilos and in free translation means “an herb liked by goats.” (QF 716) 6. The name “taxi” is shortened from “taxicab”. So where did “taxicab” come from? It is derived from the two words: “taximeter” and “cabriolet”. The taximeter was invented in 1891 and is used to record distances and calculate the fare. Cabriolet refers to a horse drawn carriage where the driver stands in the back of the carriage. The name “taximeter” itself is derived from the Mid-Latin “taxa”, meaning “tax or charge”. The first documented use of the word “taxicab” was in March of 1907 in London. Another phrase that derived from taximeter was a “taxi dancer”, which was a woman who sold her services at dance halls. 7. “Hippopotamus” comes from the Greek “Hippo” meaning “horse” and “potamos”, meaning “river”, hence “river horse”. (QF 627) 8. Synesthesia (meaning literally “together sensation”) is a condition where when one sensory pa

→Subscribe for new videos every day! http://bit.ly/todayifoundoutsub→“Coca-Cola was green” myth started around the same time Coca-Cola was commonly sold in green bottles. (QF 681) 2. Myth: Bulls are enraged by the color red. In fact, bulls are red-green colorblind. As illustrated by MythBusters, whether the cape used in bullfighting is red or any other color, the bull doesn’t react differently. What gets them to charge aggressively, outside of embedding things like banderillas (barbed “little flags”) in their necks, is actually the movement of the cape, not the color. The myth that the color red enrages bulls likely stems from matadors traditionally using red capes going all the way back to the 18th century in Spain. (QF 720) 3. Myth: Women Don’t Have Adam’s Apples. In fact, Adam’s Apples on women aren’t that terribly uncommon if you were to look close enough to most women’s throats, though “man sized” Adam’s Apples are somewhat rare in these cases. The “Adam’s Apple” is really just an enlarged larnyx which becomes big enough to be visible in your neck. For those of you who don’t know, the larnyx’s primary purpose is as a voice box. It also has an alternative purpose in aiding in the process of closing off the airways in your throat when you swallow. This is why it generally seems to disappear when you swallow, as it is being pulled upward to aid in this process. Around puberty, both men and women’s voice boxes get bigger. This in turn makes their voices deeper, with men’s larynges growing more than women’s and thus making for a deeper voice, typically. 4. Myth: TNT and Dynamite are the same thing. In fact, TNT and dynamite are not the same thing at all, contrary to what the Road Runner and Wiley coyote would have you believe. Dynamite doesn’t actually contain TNT, but rather is comprised of an absorbent mixture soaked in nitroglycerin, which is extremely sensitive to shock, unlike TNT; this is then wrapped in paper and voila, dynamite.

He was having trouble staying focused as his own boss, so thought this would be an easy and cheap solution. It turns out, it worked. His procrastination time while working dropped from 62% to 2% thanks to his slapping employee. This man is a genius. (QF 602) 2. In 2005, a 22 year old man by the name of Ronald MacDonald robbed a Wendy’s fast-food restaurant (stealing the money in the store’s safe) where he worked at the time. (QF 591) 3. From puberty to death, the average male will produce enough sperm cells to theoretically re-populate the entire planet Earth about 405 times at the present population level of just over 7 billion people, producing about 1,500 sperm cells per second. The average woman, on the other hand, will only produce about 450 mature eggs suitable for fertilization in her lifetime. (QF 662) 4. In 1670 in France, Louis XIV decreed that if you committed suicide, your body would be dragged through the streets face down and then placed in a garbage heap. Any property you may have owned, also would be forfeit. (QF 593) 5. “Odd” and “Even” are popular names for male children in Norway, but they have nothing to do with mathematics. The name “Odd”, in this instance, is after the Old Norse word “Oddr”, a word for the “sharp end” of some object or “edge of a blade”. “Even”, in this case, is from the Norse “Eivindr”, which in turn comes from the Old Norse “auja-“ and “-winduR”, meaning “gift” or “winner”. (QF 595) 6. Buzz Aldrin was the first person to pee while on the surface of the Moon. Take THAT Neil Armstrong. (QF 605) 7.

I could hit the target smack in the center further away than anyone could believe. Not just that, even though I was tiny and not even much of an athlete, I was incredibly accurate throwing hand grenades too. Even today I can load a Sten automatic rifle in a single minute, blindfolded.” (QF 696) 2. While many people fear flying, nobody seems to fear sleeping in a bed. Yet in 2013, according to The Aviation Safety Network, only 265 people around the world who traveled via a commercial airplane holding 14 or more passengers lost their lives because of a plane crash (out of about 31 million flights), while in the United States alone, according to the Center for Disease Control, falling out of bed accounts for about 450 deaths, 400,000 hospital admissions, and 1.8 million emergency room visits each year. (QF 695) 3. While most people connect historical African slave trade almost exclusively with the United States, the truth is that the U.S. was third in this sad statistic, importing about 400,000 slaves. Jamaica rang in at over a million and nearly 5 million went to Brazil. (QF 690) 4. While you know Roald Dahl for his best-selling children’s books such as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda, and James & the Giant Peach, you may not know that he also wrote one of the most famous Bond films, You Only Live Twice (1967). (QF 688) 5. The largest employer in the world is the United States Department of Defense with a little over 3.2 million employees. Next up is the People’s Republic of China with 2.3 million employees, then Walmart with 2.1 million… (QF 680) 6.

During mating, the force of the honeybee male’s ejaculation is so strong, the resulting process, including the rupture of the drone’s penis, is sometimes audible making a “pop” noise. The price of the drone’s 1 to 5 second sexual escapade is his life, as his reproductive bits are ripped from his body after climax… what a buzz kill. (QF 610) 3. It wouldn’t be until 15 years after basketball was invented before someone got the bright idea of putting a hole in the bottom of the basket to allow the ball to pass through so it wouldn’t have to be manually retrieved every time someone made a shot. (QF 576) 4. Stanfordrejects.com redirects to Berkeley.edu… (QF 638) 5. Since February of 2012, Rialto, California has required all police officers to wear a camera to monitor all interactions with the public. After this practice was instituted, the number of complaints to the department dropped by 88%. Further, the number of instances of the police using “force” on people dropped 60%. As the chief of police there said, “When you put a camera on a police officer, they tend to behave a little better, follow the rules a little better…” One imagines that knowing that footage is available also cuts down on made up complaints. (QF 639) 6. In the original The Little Mermaid story, the Little Mermaid endures excruciating pain “like walking on sharp swords” as a price for getting legs. Also, the Prince falls in love with someone else and marries them instead. The Little Mermaid is given the chance to become a mermaid again, if she kills the prince and drips is blood on her feet, but she chooses not to and throws her body into the sea where it disintegrates and she turns into a “daughter of the air” spirit. (QF 633) 7.

When the rules for the sport were first being defined, it was named “Association Football” to distinguish it from the other forms of football commonly played. Within a year of its inception, this got slurred down to “Assoccer,” after the common practice of adding “-er” to nicknames at the time in Britain. Very shortly after this, “Assoccer” became “Soccer,” which remained a semi-popular nickname for the sport in Britain until about a half century ago, along with just “Football.” The game initially spread throughout the world primarily known as “Football.” However, in countries where other forms of football (games played on foot rather than on horseback) already were dominate, the nickname “Soccer” was, and in some cases still is, the preferred name for this reason. (QF 761) 2. According to a recent Wall Street Journal study, the average NFL game features only 10 minutes and 43 seconds of action. The rest of the time is spent with commercials, replays and commentary.

The Most Peeps ever eaten by one person in a half an hour is 102, done by Dennis Gross in 2003. It should be noted that in official “Peep-offs” (Peep eating competitions), in order to keep from being disqualified, you must eat your vomit if you throw up the Peeps at any time during the competition. People have done this. 3. The record for the most wooden toilet seats broken by a human head in 60 seconds is 46, done by Kevin Shelley in 2007. 4. President Martin Van Buren was technically the first “American” President in that he was the first to be born an America citizen, as opposed to being born English or the like. He also is the first U.S. President not to be of English or Irish ancestry. His ancestors were Dutch. 5. Joey Chestnut of Stockton, California once won $1,500 by eating 8.8 pounds of fried asparagus in just 10 minutes. 6. The world record for the most rotations in 60 seconds while suspended in the air holding a power drill is 148, achieved by The-Huy Giang in 2008. 7. The most weight ever lifted by a human tongue- by sticking a metal hook through a hole in the tongue to hook to the weights- is 27 pounds and 8.96 oz (12.5 kg), performed by Thomas Blackthorn in 2008. 8. At the Vidalia Onion Festival, a man named Russ Wagner once won $100 by eating 10 whole raw onions. 9. The record for the most spoons balanced on a human face is 17, done by Aaron Caissie of Canada. 10. The most concrete blocks broken while holding an unbroken raw egg in the hand that broke the blocks is 24, accomplished by Joe Alexander of Germany. 11. The U.S. state with the most lawyers per capita is Washington D.C., which boasts about 277 lawyers for every 10,000 residents. This is nearly 14 times more lawyers per 10,000 than any other state in the United States (New York being the runner up). The lowest lawyer rate per c

For reference, the top scorer in the history of the World Cup, Brazilian Ronaldo, scored a total of 15 times participating in four different World Cups. 3) The Earliest Known Soccer Sport was in 1004 B.C. Japan. There are also many references to similar sports in 50 B.C. China, even being played between teams from China and Japan.

He even had a hit single back in the 1960s with the song “MacArthur Park,” which managed to reach number four on the UK charts and number two on the Billboard Hot 100. 2) J.K. Rowling slightly based 11-year-old Hermione on herself at the same age. She even made Hermione’s patronus her favorite animal, an otter. The otter wasn’t just a good choice because of Rowling’s preference, but also because the otter is a member of the weasel family. Further, Ron’s patronus is a Jack Russel Terrier, which were bred to help in hunting fox’s, groundhogs, badgers, and other animals that live in underground dens, including river otters. 3) The actor who played Professor Flitwick, Warwick Davis, also played Griphook. Outside of Harry Potter, he’s perhaps best known for starring in the phenomenal movie Willow, as well as playing Wicket the Ewok in Return of the Jedi. In The Phantom Menace, in scenes where Yoda was walking around, Warwick Davis also played Yoda. 4) The late Michael Jackson once approached J.K. Rowling about the possibility of doing a Musical Version of Harry Potter. J.K. Rowling said no to the idea. 5) The actress who played Moaning Myrtle, Shirley Henderson, was 37 years old at the time Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was filmed, the oldest actress to portray a Hogwarts student. She was previously best known for her role as Gail in Trainspotting, and Jude in Bridget Jones’s Diary. 6) Daniel Radcliffe’s stunt double through the first six Harry Potter films, David Holmes, was paralyzed from the waist down during the sixth film while practicing a flying scene that included an explosion. 7) So many people were Mispronouncing Hermione’s Name that J.K. Rowling had the character sound it out for Viktor Krum in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. 8) M.O. McGonagall is listed on one of the Quidditch trophies in Harry Potter and t

The entire movie only took six weeks to shoot, however, that one shower scene took just over 1 week to complete. So what does one week worth of work, and 90 shots from 70 camera angles get you? Only 45 seconds of footage that made it into the film. 3) The Hollywood walk of fame not only has the biggest stars we all know and love, but it also has a few fictional cartoon characters. The first fictional character to have his name on the Hollywood walk of fame, was Mickey Mouse on November 18, 1978. Other cartoon characters to earn stars include, Bugs Bunny, Donald Duck, Woody Woodpecker,Snow White, Tinker Bell, Winnie The Pooh, Shrek, The Rugrats, and The Simpsons. 4) The Flintstones pilot episode came out in 1959, as a 90 second clip to draw advertisers to the show. At the time, it was called “The Flagstones.” and was intended to be a show for adults, not kids. In fact, the first two full seasons of the show were sponsored by Winstons, a cigarette company. 5) Just three months after his death, Charlie Chaplin’s body was stolen on Christmas day in 1977, by two mechanics. They thought they could get money from his family in exchange for his body. However, the two grave robbers were captured eleven weeks later and Chaplin’s body was recovered. To stop this from happening again, Chaplin was buried under 6 feet of concrete the second time around. 6) George W. Bush was the head cheerleader at Phillips Academy boarding school during his senior year of high school. At the time, it was an all-male school. 7) The character of “George Bailey” on “It’s a Wonderful Life” was partially based on the founder of Bank of America. 8) Moe Howard (Moe from the three stooges) was once a Shakespearian actor, first doing this after dropping out of school and joining a Shakespearian acting troupe that performed on the riverboat, Sunflower.

Do you understand?” He was terrified of accidentally being buried while he was still alive. Among other famous taphephobics was Frederic Chopin, who upon his death bed said “The earth is suffocating… swear to make them cut me open, so that I won’t be buried alive. 2. In 1891, Ellen Martin was the first woman to be able to vote in Lombard, Illinois. She noticed that the Lombard charter on who could vote didn’t mention gender. This charter superseded Illinois law and, thus, she was legally allowed to vote. She and 14 other women voted in the 1891 elections before the charter was promptly amended. 3. The book “The Woman and the Car, A Chatty Little Handbook for All Women Who Motor or Who Want to Motor” (presumably extremely chatty, given the title), by Dorothy Levitt written in 1906, recommended that women carry a hand-mirror while driving as it is convenient to be able to see behind you during traffic by holding the hand mirror up. This is the first known mention of rear view mirrors being used in automobiles. The mounted rear view mirror wasn’t available standard in cars until 8 years later in 1914. 4) The Ancient Romans favorite wiping item, including in public restrooms, was a sponge on a stick that would sit in salt water and be placed back in the salt water when done… waiting for the next person to use it… Ancient Greeks were a little more sanitary, using stones and pieces of clay. 5) Rum helped spur the American Revolution as well as the Australian Rum Rebellion. It is estimated that around 3 gallons of rum were consumed per person per year in the American colonies shortly before the American Revolution. Rum production was also colonial New England’s largest industry. 6) Ben Franklin fought hard for the Turkey to become the United States’ official bird, but he obviously lost out to the su

→Subscribe fo→“Swiss Army Knife” was coined by United States soldiers after WWII. The soldiers had trouble pronouncing the original name of “Schweizer Offiziersmesser” (Swiss Officer’s Knife) and thus began calling the multi-tool a “Swiss Army Knife”. The company that makes Swiss Army Knives is Victorinox, named after the founder, Karl Elsener’s, deceased mother, Victoria. The “nox” part comes from the fact that stainless steel is also known as “inox”, which is short for the French term “inoxydable”. Karl Elsener himself was originally the owner of a surgical equipment company. He later took over production of the original Modell 1890 knives, which were previously made in Germany. He moved the production to Switzerland and greatly improved the design of the original multi-tool. His big breakthrough came when he figured out a way to put blades on both sides of the handle using the same spring to hold both sides in place. This allowed him to put twice as many features into the multi-tool as was previously possible. 2) Miss Piggy’s full name is “Pigathia Lee”, as revealed on episode 106 and 116 of The Muppet Show. ‘Pigathia’ is derived from ‘Piganthius’, which is Greek for “river of passion”. 3) The USDA defines “bacon” as “the cured belly of a swine carcass”… mmm swine carcass… And if you’re wondering, the difference between bacon and salted pork or ham is primarily just the composition of the brine that is used to cure it. Brine for bacon often includes sodium nitrite, sodium nitrate, and saltpeter (for curing the meat); sodium ascorbate (for setting the color, as well as speeding up the curing process); and brown or maple sugar (for flavor), among other ingredients. Brine for ham tends to have a significantly higher concentration of sugar.

→Subscribe for new videos every day! http://bit.ly/todayifoundoutsu→‘New York World’ an idea to write a story, and beat the fictitious character ‘Phileas Fogg’ in Jules Verne’s book “Around the World in 80 Days” by actually accomplishing the feat in less than 80 days. The story became so big that competing New York newspaper “Cosmopolitan” sent its own reporter Elizabeth Bisland to race Nellie Bly, by going in the opposite direction as Bly. So on November 14th, 1889 Bly set off on a steamer headed to Europe, while Bisland departed westward from New York, on a 24,899-mile race around the World. Bly beat both the fictional ‘Phileas Fogg’ from the book and Bisland for a total travel time of 72 days, 6 hours and 11 minutes. Bisland reached four and a half days later, both beating Jules Verne’s character Phileas Fogg. 3) Mount Everest grows around 5-10 millimeters every year thanks to the Indian subcontinent pushing against Eurasia. 4) Considered one of the nation’s smallest towns, Buford is located in southeastern Wyoming between Cheyenne and Laramie on the Interstate 80 and consists of 10 acres with a convenience store, gas station, and modular home. The town was first founded during the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad in Wyoming and at one point boasted a population of about 2,000 people, mostly railroad workers. However in 1980, when Don Sammons, first moved in with his wife Terry and their son from Los Angeles, they made up the whole population. After the death of his wife, Sammons bought the entire town in 1992 and kept the lights burning for longer than most expected. He ran Buford’s only General/ Hardware/ Liquor Store and gas station. He was also considered the town’s mayor. His son moved away in 2007, making Don Sammons the only resident of the town. In April of 2012, at age 61 Don decided to retire and move closer to his son in Colorado, putting the town of Buford up for auction on Ebay. The online auction of the town created a lot of buzz, wit

Vodka was also used as an ingredient in early European formulas for gunpowder. 4) A “tittle” is nothing dirty, it’s simply the name for the dot over the letter “i” 5) Air Force One is only called that when the U.S. President is aboard. It is not a specific plane and the U.S. maintains a presidential air fleet at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland, with each plane meeting the requirements for transporting the President. 6) The “USA Patriot” in USA PATRIOT Act actually stands for something: Uniting & Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept & Obstruct Terrorism 7) The term “Speak of the Devil” is the shortened version of “Speak of the Devil and he doth appear. ” It was first printed in Giovanni Torriano’s ‘Piazza Universale’in 1666, where he wrote, “The English say, Talk of the Devil, and he’s presently at your elbow”. In 1672, it again appeared in a poem which stated “Talk of the Devil, and see his horns.” However, during the 19th century the term started losing its sinister meaning and was used as a warning of an eavesdropper
