@i-was-today-years-old-when
i learned that the amount of abs you can attain is purely determined by genetics. While 6 packs are the most common, some bodybuilders such as Schwarzenegger can only attain a 4 pack. This is due to humans being born with different amounts of fascia bands. The most you can have is a 10 pack, which is rare (x)
i learned that in 2020, five Lithuanian soldiers went missing during a graduation exam. Thinking the exercise was still ongoing, they successfully evaded all attempts to find them. A military spokesman said their performance was "exemplary." (x)
i learned that in 2015, a woman's parachute failed to deploy while skydiving, surviving with life-threatening injuries. Days before, she survived a mysterious gas leak at her house. Both were later found to be intentional murder plots by her husband (x)
i learned that Ben Franklin was a slaveowner for much of his life, but after a friend took him to visit a school for black children, he wrote that African ignorance was not inherently natural but came from lack of education, slavery and negative environments. He also petitioned Congress to end slavery (x)
i learned that in 2015 a 46 yr-old woman accidentally took 55 mg intranasally of pure LSD, equal to 550x the normal recreational dosage. She "blacked out" for the first 12 hours and felt "pleasantly high" for the second 12. A day later her chronic foot pain ceased, helping her to end her morphine habit (x)
i learned that Spartan law forbade the marriage of a girl until she was in her late teens or early 20s. The reasons were to ensure the birth of healthy children; and to spare women the risks and lifelong health damage associated with adolescent pregnancy (x)
i learned that Fungi in Chernobyl appear to be feeding off gamma radiation and are growing towards the reactor core (x)
i learned that singer Dionne Warwick, upset with misogyny in rap lyrics, once set up a meeting with Snoop Dogg and Suge Knight at her home, where she demanded that they call her a “bitch” to her face. Snoop Dogg later said “I believe we got out-gangstered that day.” (x)
i learned that scientists have been communicating with apes via sign language since the 1960s; apes have never asked one question (x)
i learned that in his suicide note, mass shooter Charles Whitman requested his body be autopsied because he felt something was wrong with him. The autopsy discovered that Whitman had a pecan-sized tumor pressing against his amygdala, a brain structure that regulates fear and aggression (x)
i learned that many haunted houses have been investigated and found to contain high levels of carbon monoxide or other poisons, which can cause hallucinations. The carbon monoxide theory explains why haunted houses are mostly older houses, which are more likely to contain aging and defective appliances (x)
i learned that the wildlife painter John James Audubon ate all of the birds he painted, including bald eagles, snowy owls, sparrows, robins, and whooping cranes (x)
i learned that we don’t know who named the Earth. Unlike other planets there are no records of how it got its name. The name Earth, and variations of it, date back 1000+ years (x)
i learned that a study found that self-centered men who are argumentative & unempathetic are more likely to own a high-status car such as a BMW or Mercedes and these male drivers are the ones most likely to generally drive recklessly. No connection was found between female self-centeredness and luxury cars (x)
i learned that Frankie Muniz (Malcolm in the Middle) quit acting in 2008 to become an open-wheel race car driver and currently competes in NASCAR (x)
i learned that the 85-year-old Harvard Study of Adult Development, the longest longitudinal study in history, found that people who did more chores during childhood often had more professional success and happiness later in life (x)
i learned that the Inughuit (aka Polar Eskimos) lived in such extreme isolation prior to being contacted by Europeans in 1818 that they were unaware of the existence of other humans, including other Inuits. Due to their isolation they had lost various technologies such as boats and bow and arrows (x)
