Broccoli is MAN MADE and 6 Other Weird Factoids
I ran across some CRAZY random facts on Reddit this weekend that I just had to share! Like this: Did you know Hummingbirds have metabolisms so fast they have to hibernate every night or they’d starve to death in their sleep?! It’s true! And so are these . . .
I LOVE random facts, and you never know when this useless knowledge might make you a winner of some game show! Just remember me when it does . . .
- Broccoli is MAN MADE . . . it was carefully bred by Italian farmers more than 2,000 years ago, carefully breeding different types of wild cabbage to create it.
- A blue whale’s heart is the size of a car.
- Lion tamers use chairs because lions are wired to focus on one thing and attack . . . so the four legs of the chair freak them out and make them back off.
- Hippopotamus milk is naturally BRIGHT PINK.
- Pineapple has proteins that degrade meat . . . and that includes human flesh! Apparently people who work in pineapple processing plants will LOSE their fingerprints over time from handling them so much!
- Moisture in the air heightens your sense of smell, you’re not smelling rain . . . it’s the cement, grass, and plants your scenting. That’s why if you pee in the shower, it smells worse than peeing in the toilet!
