Things that make you go HMMMMMM

If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would
have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.
(Hardly seems worth it.)

If you farted 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 to
the body to squirt blood 30 feet.
(O.M.G.!)

A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes.
(In my next life, I want to be a pig.)

A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it
starves to death.
(Creepy. I'm still not over the pig.)

Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.
(Do not try this at home.....maybe at work.)

The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is
attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the
male's head off.
("Honey, I'm home. What the....?!")

The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a
human jumping the length of a football field.
(30 minutes...lucky pig...can you imagine??)

The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds.
(What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond?)

Some lions mate over 50 times a day.
(I still want to be a pig in my next life...quality over quantity!!!)

Butterflies taste with their feet.
(Something I always wanted to know.)

The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue.
(Hmmmmmm........)

Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than
left-handed people.
(If you're ambidextrous, do you split the difference?)

Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump.
(OK, so that would be a good thing....)

A cat's urine glows under a black light.
(I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)

An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain.
(I know some people like that.)

Starfish have no brains.
(I know some people like that too.)

Polar bears are left-handed.
(If they switch, they'll live a lot longer.)

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for
pleasure.
(What about that pig???)

The heart thing is great.

My old bio teacher once told me of an accident with some guy near his house who had a glass front door.

One night, the man of the house thought he heard burglars and so shot up out of bed and ran downstairs.

Now, this house was a semi and so the stairs were located right infront of the front door. The guy tripped in the dark, fell and crashed through the glass door.

In the morning, the neighbour checked the other house due to the crash they supposedly heard the night before. Only they found a smashed door and the man lying there in a pool of blood, his carotid slashed right open and blood all the way up the stairsm, ceiling of the hall and everywhere. Not a pretty sight.

But nice facts.

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for
pleasure.

Really? So what caused humans and dolphins to develop the capacity for pleasure from sex but ignored every other animal? It certainly seems more logical that if one or two species can experience pleasure during sex and do it for that reason, other animal species will also. It's definately a survival trait.

Some questions are best left unanswered... my guess, though, would have to be accident.

All sexual intercourse produces some sort of pleasurable experience else no other species would do it. Simple as.

I know for a fact that at least a few of these are false, because in those kind of lists, there are always a few things that are false.

*just glad there was no mention of a duck's quack not echoing*

Yep, the 30 minute pig orgasm thing is wrong (and the typical rumor is 6 minutes, so it sounds like someone inflated the number to make it sound more impressive).

The quack one is a nice urban legend favourite, I think people are wiser now.

I had a duck follow me along a canal the other day, it swam along side me upto a bridge where it didn't echoe any quacks.

Ducks rule.

Well, if a lion-pig orgasms for 30 minutes, and does it 50 times a day, that means that it would be 1500 minutes of one constant orgasm. And since there are only 1440 minutes in a day...
