A whoole bunch!


It is impossible to lick your elbow.(Believe me, I've tried.)

A crocodile can't stick it's tongue out.

A shrimp's heart is in their head.

People say "Bless you" when you sneeze because when you sneeze, you're heart stops for a millisecond.(0_o)

In a study of 200,000 ostriches over a period of 80 years, no one reported a single case where an ostrich buried its head in the sand.

It is physically impossible for pigs to look up into the sky.

A pregnant goldfish is called a twit.

Rats and horses can't throw up.


If you sneeze too hard, you can fracture a rib. If you try to suppress a sneeze, you can rupture a blood vessel in your head or neck and
die. if you keep your eyes open by force, they will pop out. (In other words, sneeze regularly and live.)

Rats multiply so quickly that in 18 months, two rats could have over a million descendants.(Oh...my...gosh...)

Wearing headphones for just an hour will increase the bacteria in your ear by 700 times.

A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.

23% of all photocopier faults worldwide are caused by people sitting on them and photocopying their buttocks.

In the course of an average lifetime you will, while sleeping, eat 70 assorted insects and 10 spiders.

Cat's urine glows under a black light. (*explodes with laughter* Gotta test that one out! Where'd the cat go?)

In Spring (Allergy Season to me) I will sneeze like ten times in a row! But I think there is a very short breath between them, otherwise I would be dead. :lol:
