Interesting 'Facts' 3.0 AKA: Zook's Misinformation Scheme

[GoldShadow]

Whoa, stop derailing this thread with Chuck Norris "facts". This thread is supposed to be Interesting Facts, not Chuck Norris jokes.

So that said, I'm going to start posting the true versions of some of the 'facts' I corrected in Interesting Facts 2.0:



-The body makes and destroys 3 million red blood cells every second

-There are some oysters that can climb trees

-The average person produces about 4000 gallons of saliva in a lifetime

People have posted pictures with the F-bomb in the forum game "Post until you laugh".

Oh stop crying already. No ones coming to save your poor childlike innocence from being viciously ravaged by words starting with F and ending with K.

Antarctica wasn't officially discovered until the 1800's. However, a German map from 1543 clearly shows Antarctica at the bottom of it.

The biggest man in recorded history was 8'11". He died of a infected blister on his size 26 foot.

If you were to take the four Gospels and put them in the order they were written, it would be: Mark, John, Matthew and then Luke.

Contrary to popular belief, there are more polar bears on on Earth now than there ever were.

Tokyo is the world's most populated city. It is also the least polluted major city in the world.

Not true, actually, it's a bogus claim that was published but has almost no historical backing, the author fabricated the majority of his background claims and the evidence he uses for it is almost nil.

I heard that if you were born in international waters, you are a citizen of every country. Though, I did not verify that. And it is from an unreliable person.

LOL, this must be argument of the Republican elect ability.

Edit: Yeah, I checked the completely reliable internet and my fact is wrong. You are a citizen of the country you just left. For example, if your parents are Americans visiting France. Gone back to America, but along the way had a baby on the airplane to America. Then, the baby is a French citizen. I think.
