Little known and useless facts
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..
(O.M..G!!!)
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.
(Don't 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 can't believe that pig ....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.
(Okay, so that would be a good thing.)
A cat's urine glows under a black light.
(I wonder how much the government 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? Do the dolphins know about the pig?)

Graham please calm down a bit. That pig has got you all worked up. Just do the deed 120 times in a row and you will have the same pleasure as the pig.
Cheers and beers to you mate. Have a great day.
Good one. Love your posts.
You'd be surprised at how useful this kind of trivia can be at social events and such. They probably got me laid a few times, back in the early '70's. A couple more I throw out when the conversation drifts to these topics:
1. Baseball is the only sport where...when you are on offense...the other team controls the ball. (I apologize to you UK'ers since Cricket probably qualifies but here in the colonies we can't figure out if it's a sport or some form of fashion show.)
2. On the moon, its day (period of one revolution on axis) is the same as its year (period of orbit around its primary).
Thanks for finding and posting these, Graham.
Actually, all mammals' urine glows under a black light, but who cares.

Quite true! Rodents don't stop to urinate and trail the stuff as they travel like dragging a wet paintbrush. As a health inspector I used to carry a portable black light to check for "glowing infestation evidence" in food storage areas and typically, cases of soda and beer cans would be covered with glowing trails. My friends think I'm just being anal when I wash a can in running water before drinking from it. Think about it next time you put your mouth on a vending machine can!
Good stuff. I take issue with number two, though, the farts and the atom bomb. No way.
