It is impossible to lick your elbow.

A crocodile can't stick its tongue out.

A shrimp's heart is in their head.

People say "Bless you" when you sneeze because when you sneeze, you're heart stops for a mili-second.
In a study of 200,000 ostriches over a period of 80 years, no one reported a single case where an ostrich buried its head in the sand (or attempted to do so).

It is physically impossible for pigs to look up into the sky.
By law, every child in Belgium must take harmonica lessons at Primary school.

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

Rats and 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 suppress a sneeze, you can rupture a blood vessel in your head or neck and die.

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

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

The cigarette lighter was invented before the match.

Thirty-five percent of the people who use personal ads for dating are already married.

A duck's quack doesn't echo anywhere, and no one knows why.

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

In the course of an average lifetime you will, while sleeping, eat 70 assorted insects and 10 spiders.(EWWWWWW)

Most lipstick contains fish scales.

Like fingerprints, everyone's tongue print is different.

If you keep your eyes open by force, they will pop out. (PERSONALLY I TRIED THAT)

75% of people who read this will try to lick their elbow

"By law, every child in Belgium must take harmonica lessons at Primary school. "

First time I heard about that and I live in Belgium so I can tell you it's not true.

Other interesting thing to know : "keyboard keys are arranged the way they are to slow down the typists. Original keyboards were in alphabetical order but were so easy that because typists were going so fast the parts of the typewriters were jamming. The current keyboard pattern was designed to slow down these typists so that the typewriters would not have mechanical conflicts.
