Crazy facts
« on: 24 February 2010, 23:56:01 »

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 farted 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.

(O.M.G.!)  :o

 
A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes.

(In my next life, I want to be a pig..)  :o :o :o

A cockroach will live nine days without its head  before it starves to death.    (Creepy.)

(I'm still not over the pig.)  :-?


Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour

(Don't try this at home, maybe at work)  ;)


The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off.

(Honey, I'm home. What the...?)  :o  :(
 

The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping the length of a football field.

(30 minutes. Lucky pig! Can you imagine?)  :-? :-?


The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds.

(What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond?)  :)

 
Some lions mate over 50 times a day.

(I still want to be a pig in my next life...quality over quantity)  ::)


Butterflies taste with their feet.

(Something I always wanted to know.)  :-/


The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue.

 (Hmmmmmm......) ;) ;)
 

Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people.

(If you're ambidextrous, do you split the difference?) :-/
 

Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump.

(Okay, so that would be a good thing)  :y
 

A cat's urine glows under a black light..

(I wonder who was paid to figure that out.) :-/
 

An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain.

(I know some people like that.) :)
 

Starfish have no brains

(I know some people like that too.) :) :)
 

Polar bears are left-handed.

(If they switch, they'll live a lot longer) :y
 

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure..

(What about that pig??)  :-? :-?

Bloody funny.  Dunno about being a pig, or even a lion, but coming back as a dolphin and doing it for fun, sounds good.   :o

;D  Lions mate 50 times a day? no wonder they spend the rest of the time asleep, they must be "knackered".

Here's an "interesting fact" i picked up off TV recently regarding warships -

The "USS Phoenix" was the luckiest ship in the American Navy, it saw a lot of action and even survived Pearl Harbor unscathed, and in 1951 was decommissioned and sold to the Argentinian Navy.

In 1956 they renamed it the "General Belgrano", but its luck finally ran out in 1982 off the Falklands, thanks to the "HMS Conqueror"  ::)

The "Belgrano" is still the first and only ship ever to be sunk by a Nuclear powered Sub.

Not to mention the IDIOTS in the company who do a reply-all to a 10,000 member distribution list, asking everyone not to reply-all, so everybody else does likewise. Must have had several hundred emails to download this morning saying the same, and still downloading (and the Outlook rules cannot run quick enough)
