Did You Know...?

1. When you drink water, you're drinking dinosaur spit.

2. Fish scales are used to make lipstick.

3. If you touch your thumbnail with your finger, it feels like a dinosaur's skin (unless your nails are manicured)

4. Your intestines are 28 feet (8.5 m) long.

5. When connected to an EEG (electroencephalogram) machine, gelatin shows movement almost the same as the brain waves of a healthy adult.

6. Men and women have different center of gravity.

7. Indian snake charmers don't play old fashioned traditional tunes to charm their snake. Instead, they play popular music from curent Indian films!

8. The fingerprints of koalas are so close to those of humans, that they could be confused at a crime scene!

9. Your lungs has a surface area about the same size as a tennis court.

10. If you squash a yellowjacket wasp near its nest, it will give out an alarm pheromone. This calls other wasp to come help. Within 15 seconds, yellowjackets within a 4.5m radius will attack you for squashing their friend.

11. White is not a colour.

12. And guess what? I also learned that lions go ROAR!!
