These will blow your mind

[CheshireGrin]

I want more information on some of these.

Also, I totally just tried to hold my nose and hum.

ETA: And I tried the PacMan one too. It's true!

"21. There are more nipples on Earth than there are people."

Well, duh. Each person has two.

Not to mention that dogs and cats have 8 or so.

This one confused me too.

Huh, I read this as the earth having "dents" that could be considered as nipples. But now this makes no sense lol

planetary nipples? lol!!

I don't understand #19 - if I folded a piece of paper 42 times it would reach to the moon??? WTF does that even mean?

I don't understand this one.

I've heard this one before, and it's never made any sense.

[ProfessorArtNerd]

I tell my students about the mammoths all the time. And that Stonehenge is about 1000 years younger than the pyramids. Mind blown

[candreco]

I love #18.

Whoever is surprised a straw has one hole has really, really crappy spatial reasoning.

I *think* it's that if you had a piece of paper that was big enough that you could fold it 42 times, that piece of paper would stretch between the earth and the moon.  I think an 8.5x11 sheet of paper can only be folded something like 5 times.  It's a poorly written sentence.

[wannabe]

Okay, 'fess up...how many of you tried the pacman thing? Heh.

[lilac05]

Interesting! Thanks for sharing!

[thebuddhagouda]

I really can't get over the nipple one. It's the dumbest thing I've read in a long time.

This explains the paper thing better than me.

That is really cool.  I love science even though I suck at it.

[CloudBee]

I love the part about drinking water containing a molecule that's gone through a dinosaur. It's actually 100%.

I read a study somewhere that said we've all breathed a particlefrom Caesar's last breath.

Any one sheet of paper can only be folded in half, perfectly, 7 times regardless of size.  Using a larger piece of paper doesn't make it easier.  It's impossible for a human to fold a piece of paper 42 times, this is saying that exponentially a paper's thickness when folded 42 times would reach the moon.

Some are common sense (nipples, Barbie - common knowledge, not sense, breathing and swallowing)

Some blow my mind (Cleopatra, iphone, bananas)

I refuse to believe the math on 1998. If you listen to my ipod, it's all 1998!

#43 blew my mind the most.

It's not true. The actor who played Uncle Phil was 45 when the show premiered in 1990, and Will Smith is 45 now. So he's the same age, not older. Plus I think the character was supposed to be older than 45, although I don't know if they ever gave "Uncle Phil's" age.

8 didn't surprise me.

I tried the PAC man thing last week :/

These are the kinds of thoughts that keep me up at night. I'm just not normal.

Remember, if it has nipples, it can be milked!

[leeluu]

So I can hold my nose and make a noise that sounds like humming ... It's way harder but still humming-esque. Am I doing it wrong or am I just super speshal?

Raining diamonds sounds pretty.

It's also sort of false.  

THEORETICALLY, it could rain diamonds.  I don't think we have any proof that it actually happens.

[8675309]

27. It rains diamonds on Saturn and Jupiter.

I'm kind of thinking if this were true, some trillionaire (is that a word?) would have already built a damn space ship that could get there and retrieve ALLTHEDIAMONDS.
