If there are 23 people in a room, there is a 50 percent chance two of them share a birthday
With 365 possible birthdays, it seems unlikely that with just 23 people you would find two with the same birthday and yet…it’s true. Even stranger, with 75 people in the room, there’s a 99 percent chance of shared birthdays.
Pistol shrimp can make a sound louder than a gun and kill prey using bubbles
Snapping shrimp, also known as pistol shrimp, have a biological mechanism that allows them to “fire” bubble bullets. That alone is enough to make them memorable but the resulting sound is a screaming 210 decibels. In comparison, an actual gunshot is only around 150 decibels.
Falling coconuts kill more people than sharks
Sharks have a bad reputation for being merciless killers but when it comes to sheer numbers they could learn something from the humble coconut. Falling coconuts kill 150 people worldwide each year while sharks only kill about ten.
There are only two escalators in the state of Wyoming
Wyoming is known for being sparsely populated. After all, there are 1.3 million cows to just 580,000 people. But perhaps the funniest illustration of this is the fact that there are only two escalators in the entire state. Both escalators are housed in banks.
Hahaha... let's party @FrankZ
People called 911 when seeing the Milky Way for the first time
In 1994, Los Angeles experienced wide blackouts. But it wasn’t the loss of electricity that had residents scared—it was the “strange, glowing light in the sky.” Hundreds of people called in to report it, only to be told they were actually seeing our galaxy, the Milky Way, for the first time. Light pollution has become so prevalent that people can live their entire lives without ever seeing the natural night sky.

The owner of Segway was killed by a Segway
Those fancy two-wheeled scooters may look benign but in 2010, Segway owner Jim Heselden was killed when his Segway rolled off a cliff near his home.
Hahaha... let's give it a try
You can taste garlic with your feet
Garlic lovers rejoice! There’s now another way you can enjoy the pungent food. If you rub a clove of garlic on the bottom of your barefoot, you’ll be able to taste garlic in your mouth. It’s all thanks to allicin, the chemical responsible for garlic’s unique smell. It can be absorbed through your skin, pass through your bloodstream, and end up in your mouth and nose, making you “taste” the garlic even though it never went in your mouth.
Have a good rest
