THINGS YOU PROBABLY
DID'NT KNOW

Did you know...

It is impossible to lick your elbow.

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

A shrimps heart is in it's head.

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

It's physically impossible
for pigs to look up inyo the sky.

A pregant goldfsih is called a twit.

More than 50% of people in the world
have never made or received a telephone call.

Horses can't vomit.

The "sixth sick sheik's sixth sheep's sick"
is said to be the toughest tongue twister
in the English language.

If you sneeze too hard,you can fracture a rib.
If you try to to suppress a sneeze,
you can rupture a blood vessel
in your head or neck and die.
If you try to keep your eyes open by force
they can pop out.

Rats multiply so quickly that in 18 months,
two rats could have over a million descendants.

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

If the government has no knoledge of aliens,
then why does Title 14,Section 1211
of Code of Fedaral Regulations,
implemented on July 16,1069,
make it illegal for U.S. citzens to have any contact
with extraterestrails or their vehicles?

In every episode of Seinfeld
there is a Superman somewhere.

A duck's quack does'nt echo,
and no one knows why.

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

Most lipstick contains fish scales.

Like fingerprints,everyone's
tongue print is different.

Over 75 percent of people who read
this will try to lick their elbow.

I didn't know that but it cleared a LOT up for me, two years ago I had severe earinfection and lost about 40% of my hearing in the left ear. I had no idea why but I always used earphones at work so that was the reason I guess...
