SUMMARY:
\n– Flamingoes are born gray. But their feathers turn pink later on because of a natural pink dye!
\n– Each BIC pen has two tiny holes in it to keep the air pressure equal outside and inside.
\n– Snails have anywhere from 1,000 to 14,000 tiny sharp teeth.
\n– In Canada, you can legally pay for your purchases in coins featuring Superman.
\n– It took Erno Rubik, the creator of the famous cube, a staggering one month to solve it!
\n– Stripes serve as camouflage for tigers, effectively hiding them from other animals. But the most curious thing is that tigers have not only striped fur, but striped skin as well.
\n– In the past, men’s dress shirt collars were detachable. It helped people save money on laundry costs.
\n– Sunsets on Mars are blue, which has to do with the Martian air – or rather with the fine dust floating in it.
\n– Bringing one leg up to their body helps birds keep warm when it’s chilly outside.
\n– The northern leopard frog is the scariest creature: it swallows prey with the help of its eyes! This amphibian can press its eyes deep down into its mouth, and this movement helps the frog to swallow.
\n– Researchers have discovered that one cloud can weigh more than 1 million pounds!
\n– In Singapore, you’ll find the world’s tallest vending machine where you can buy… a car!
\n– You can’t bring your pooch along if you travel to Antarctica. Since April 1994, all dogs have been banned from this continent because they could infect seals with diseases that they aren\u2019t immune to.
\n– You don’t sneeze in your sleep, simply because your brain shuts down this reflex while you’re slumbering.
\n– The brain is the fattiest organ in your body because it\u2019s composed of approximately 60% fat!
\n– Super powerful earthquakes can make days shorter, because they move the spin of the Earth’s axis!
\n– Yellow is the color that is the easiest to spot, even in the darkness. That’s why taxis and school buses are mostly this shade.
\n– However unbelievable it may sound, a cat\u2019s purr starts in its brain! And only after that, the brain sends orders to a cat’s throat muscles, which then start to make 25 to 150 vibrations a second!
\n– Don’t take the assumption that light travels at the speed of, well, light, for granted. The slowest light ever moved at only 38 miles per hour!<\/p>\n
