These facts will even make you laugh out loud. As usual these are from the erstwhile E-mail from a friend. Enjoy!
If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months, and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat up one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worthit.)
If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now, that's more like it.)
The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out of the body to squirt blood 30 feet.
A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes. (In my next life I want to be a pig.)
Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour. (Still not over that pig thing.)
Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure. (Is that why Flipper is always smiling? And why isn't the pig included in this list?)
On average, people fear spiders more then they do death.
The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. (Hmmmmmm......)
A crocodile cannot stick out its tongue.
The ant can lift 50 times its own weight, can pull 30 times its own weight, and always falls over on its right side when ntoxicated. (From drinking little bottles of....? Did the gov't pay for this research?)
Polar bears are left handed. (Who knew? Who cares? Did the gov't pay for this too?)
The flea can jump 350 times its body length.It's like a human jumping the length of a football field.
A cockroach will live 9 days without its head before it starves to
death.
The male praying mantis cannot copulate while it's head is attached to
its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off. (Hi,
honey. I'm home. What the...?)
Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (In my next life I still want to
be a pig. Quality over quantity, you know.)
Butterflies taste with their feet. (Oh, jeez!)
Elephants are the only animals that can't jump.
An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain. (I know some people like that.)
Starfish don't have brains. (I know some people like this too.)
Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown. BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and smack the fool upside the head.
