A variant of #10: It doesn't take two pairs of identical twins - if one guy has kids with two identical twins (or one girl with two guys who are identical twins), the kids are genetical siblings in spite of having different mothers (/fathers).
#15 Those beers couldn't be quarter sized mugs... A more recent story from Norway: A few years ago, the newspaper in our town reported that a guy had been arrested after turning violent, allegedly after about 25 mugs of beer (12,5 liters - half liter being the standard serving size here in Norway).
The guys at the police station started arguing whether one guy could drink 25 mugs, and even be capable of picking a fight afterwards. One of the beer bellies among the policemen laughed: Of course! So at his next evening off work, his colleagues took him to a pub, bought him 25 half liters of beer, and told him: Show us!
Well, he did empty all the 25 mugs withoug any problem. But that's not what impressed the most: He took 16 of them (eight liters, somewhat less than two US gallons) before going to the lavatory for the first time...
(My police friend was not the one performing this stunt, but he was present. I have no reason to doubt that he tells the truth.)

#10 actually happened. Both couples had a set of twins.
#20 is an amazing statistic considering that 90% of all restaurants fail in the first year.
