Thanks to the internet and Historians, so many things that would have been buried in the sands of time or not given a voice at all are now being aired. Here's a list of ten things I'm pretty sure you dint know or already forgotten;
Albert Einstein's Brain Was Stolen: Based on the kinda lifestyle he led, Mr. Albert gave specific instructions about his body's disposal when he died. He wanted his body to be cremated so as to avoid his body being worshipped or his brain being studied. However, the pathologist on duty (Thomas Harvey) stole his brain and now the brain is still been preserved.
A single watermelon was once sold $6,125: This might sound odd to you, but yeah, an almost black watermelon was sold for a whooping sum of $6,125 in the year 2008. The buyer was of the conviction that the watermelon was hard and crisp and had another level of sweetness than the ones we're used to eating.
“Arachibutyrophobia” is the fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of your mouth: This in its entirety is one funny reality. It's almost normal for people to have phobias for everything. However, this is one strange one which actually exists.
It's illegal to own just one Guinea Pig in Switzerland: Over there, Guinea pigs are regarded as social animals who require the company of another guinea pig. For this reason it is illegal to have just one guinea pig cos you would be placing it in a difficult odd for survival.
Benin Kingdom had walls surrounding it: Long ago in 1500, the westerners did make mention of the Benin Kingdom Wall with Portuguese Explorer Duarte Pacheco Pereira being the first.
The average Mammal takes 21 seconds to empty their bladder: Unless you have an infection this should be the case with you.
An Ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain: This in all honesty is one funny fact which I found impossible to believe..but there it was, true and true. This may be why the ostrich, despite its tremendous running speed, is not very good at eluding predators; It tends to run in circles.
Lemon contains more sugar than strawberries: I think my mother needs to see this. That a food is sweet doesn't mean its sugar content is high. The believe is that because lemon is bitter, it contains less or no sugar while strawberries that are really sweet contain more sugar.
The mostly used alphabet is the letter “E”: There you have it. I used to think it was letter "A" but "E" it is.
The top 3 Most used language in the world are Mandarin Chinese, Spanish and English: Where do we place French and Arabic then? Just saying.
