Just a few facts that I find interesting

by JessgoreComment Published at 20:3220:324 comments4 comments27 Visits27 VisitsReport

1. A shark is the only fish that can blink with both eyes.. Who has checked out every species of fish???

2. A gold fish has the memory span of three seconds.  This has been proved wrong.. I watched it on a documentary then again on Myth Busters...

3. The average person eats 8 spiders in their life time while sleeping.   Yuck how do they work this out???

4. If one places a tiny amount of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death.  Who was the cruel person who did this??? And I bet they did it more then once to prove it to others.

5. You burn more calories sleeping than you do watching television.  I watch a DVD before I fall asleep so why the hell am I not losing any weight???

The goldfish one is tricky.  They do actually have a very long memory, and I proved it when I had fish.  Ring a bell, they come to the surface to feed.  Mine got to the point where when I walked past them they would demand to be fed.  Their attention span is a different story though.

The rest, very interesting!

Although it sounds cruel, No. 4 may be an good fact to know to protect yourself. Mind you I don't think we have scorpions here, maybe in the desert but I saw a really spooky movie once and they had to try and get away from all these killer scorpions in the desert. It was probably some horror flick, too young to remember but scared me for life!
