Random Facts

ThePRIMEMaster · Post » 10 Mar 2012, 20:44

This thread is basically for people who know anything random but cool. So, if you'd like, post something. I'll start:

111,111,111 * 111,111,111 = 12345678987654321
Not that cool, but whatever, just wanted to start something new.

depending on their definition of a sense, scientists count between 9 and more than 20 senses. Wikipedia
Adding over the obvious 5, you can count senses like equilibrium (inner ear), relative temperature, etc.

Did you know that people thought that the stereo-type of santa clause was green!!!

Dolphins kill more people annually than sharks and influenza combined. Also, more people are killed by falling vending machines than sharks.

I mean that before coca cola was made, they still pictured that he is a fat, white beardy, old man but they pictured him green.

Back in the old days, Coco-Cola was made with cocaine. That's why it was addicting back then >w>

Either that, or what looks like his upper lip is actually his mustache, and the line below it is his real mouth.

"did you know 111,111,111*111-HEY WHERE ARE YOU GOING"

Did you know that everything has a value of four?

For example: Banana
Banana has six letters.
six has three letters.
three has five letters.
five has four letters.
Four has four letters. You'll keep getting stuck in this loop of the word four, thus it is four.

Another example: Exacerbation
Exacerbation has twelve letters.
Twelve has six letters. (guess where this is heading).

The reason why this is like this is because the number four is the only number with the same amount of letters in it as the value of it.
This also works in dutch (dutch word for four is 'vier'). I don't know what number(s) it would be for other languages though... Would be fun if this works for more languages.

I found this out when I got really, really, really bored during class when we were discussing binary stuff >.<

Women blink nearly twice as much as men.
Pearls melt in vinegar.
In every episode of Seinfeld there is a Superman somewhere.
Donald Duck's middle name is Fauntleroy.
No word in the English language rhymes with "MONTH."

and

It was discovered on a space mission that a frog can throw up. The frog throws up it's stomach first, so the stomach is dangling out of it's mouth. Then the frog uses it's forearms to dig out all of the stomach's contents and then swallows the stomach back down again.
