The chemical that makes your eyes red is chlorine right? Wrong. It’s chloramine…the product of urine combining with chlorine.

We’re so glad you asked. On average, it’s 26 gallons.

Yes, they do. In the US, the most common type of worm infection is by pinworms (threadworms). About the size of a staple, 20% of kids will get them. During the night they crawl out of the rectum to lay eggs on the surrounding skin.

Every time somebody flushes the toilet, poop goes flying…you do the math.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO): “The raw meat materials used for precooked-cooked products are lower-grade muscle trimmings, fatty tissues, head meat, animal feet, animal skin, blood, liver, and other edible slaughter by-products.”

Well, it’s hard to say, but it’s not impossible. Any asteroid more than a kilometer (.62 miles) in diameter would cause mass extinctions. There are at least 15 such asteroids that have crossed Earth’s orbit.

They have more than just teeth. Known as teratomas, they can grow hair, eyes, and even brain matter!

In 10 seconds, an average of 80 million bacteria are exchanged.

When scientists in North Carolina swabbed belly buttons, they found thousands of species of bacteria, half of which were new to science!

The short answer is yes. The longer answer is it depends on how many birds hit what part of the aircraft.

A lot. In fact, you have 10 times more bacteria cells than human cells. That’s right, you’re basically a walking, talking colony of bacteria.

Note: for the most part, those bacteria are necessary to keep you healthy and living.

Yup, recent research presented by the American Academy of Neurology has shown that drinking heavy amounts of alcohol over a long period of time may decrease brain volume.

Yes, yes it can. In fact, it can even kill you if you play for long enough without stopping (typically a seizure or cardiac arrest).

Maybe. The FDA allows a certain number of insect parts, maggots, etc. per 100 grams of any given food. This is known as “levels of natural or unavoidable defects in foods that present no health hazards for humans.”

More than you think. Every year, families ask to sprinkle the ashes of their loved ones. And although the answer is always no, officials have caught numerous people doing just that from various rides around the park.

Sadly, yes. Nature is cruel.

Most likely. Researchers have found keyboards to be some of the dirtiest things we touch everyday. On average your office keyboard will have 400 times more bacteria than your office toilet.

Note: a lot of this comes from eating at your desk.

Not very. In fact, scientists have found that many phones are contaminated with E. coli…basically poop.

Suffice to say that every search you have ever made is archived and available for any company or government to sift through…even 200 years from now. You have no secrets.

Nope, they don’t. All they detect is your level of excitement (pulse, sweating, etc). In fact, many psychologists and scientists are vehemently opposed to the use of polygraphs in employment because they are so poor at detecting lies, and the results stay with the individual for quite some time.

Note: oftentimes, practiced liars have an easier time passing a polygraph than a squeaky clean choir boy. Why? Because compulsive liars and psychopaths are used to lying. The choir boy, on the other hand, would get nervous if you even question his motives.

If you focus too much on the end, you’ll forget the journey.

Usually it’s the kitchen sink. In fact, the sink tends to have more fecal matter than the toilet seat. Why? E. coli thrive on the food and moisture.

Sometimes crushed beetle parts are part of the recipe. Why? To make the eyeshadow more shiny.

Almost certainly. In fact, over three years, the average 10 oz pillow will double in weight due to a collection of dead skin and mites.

We’re glad you asked. Most likely it’s a substance called castoreum, which just so happens to come from the anal gland of a beaver.
