Myth: These have all been thoroughly researched to ensure accuracy.

Fact: #19 Piranha have killed many humans. Just google Paraguay Piranha attack and you'll find news articles indicated 4 people killed by piranha this year.

#4 Edison never invented anything. He was an idea man. He'd think of something that he could market and sell, and then hire other people to invent it for him. Then he'd take all the credit and screw over everyone around him.

#5 This has always been taken out of context. Our brain functions constantly at full capacity, but there's too much going on for us to be consciously aware of. We can only be cognizant of about 8-10% at any given moment. Things such as breathing, or seeing your nose, as well as others like forming memories, regulating body temperature, etc., are all happening in the background.

#33 there are more than a couple of manmade things that are visible from space: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_structures_visible_from_space

#7 He got good grades, but grew to dislike the education system and dropped out at 15.

#13 Disney was the Edison of animation.

Many of these "myths" I've never heard, and a lot (like #21) are things that children believe. Although, that may have changed with this generation.
PS- (#50) Eating slows metabolism, which is why bears hibernate...

#49 Cleopatra was born in Egypt in 69 BCE. Her ancestor Ptolemy I Soter, was a Macedonian Greek general who declared himself Pharaoh in 305/304 BCE after Alexander conquered Egypt. As a result, the Ptolemaic Dynasty was heavily influenced by Greek culture.

#10 Washing your hair with moisturiser helps prevent split ends. Hair does not have blood vessels, so the cells are dead and cannot repair themselves. The worst thing you can do is bleach them, which produces a chemical burn.

#43 Too much brushing can wear down enamel and make gums recede faster.

#38 Toxins are removed from the blood by your kidneys and flushed out when we urinate. That's it. There's literally no other way to remove toxins from our bodies. Whatever product your buying is a sham, and you've been ripped off.

#46 This one originated from experiments on the body's reaction to extreme cold.
Subjects were bundled up, and infrared photos were taken. They neglected to cover their heads, however, so when the photos came back, it looked like more heat was escaping from the head.
Tests were also done underwater with the same results because the subjects wore wetsuits with their heads again exposed.

Thank you internet-commentators for restoring a little of my faith.
I lost a lot of it by scrolling through these idiotic "facts".
Not a lot of hope for these young ones ...

#24 I call shenanigans!!! You can hear at least when tandem.

#26 you actually build a sleep debt where you need to catch up. More nonsense

#2 yeah, but they are connected. I mean the Amazonas feeds the plankton in the ocean that makes the oxygen, or something like that

#8 Not all of them

#22 King cobra is not even the most venomous cobra it's not even in the top 10 of animals.

#17 Yes, but it can break secondary weak bindings and can behave as catalyst.

#33 Who tf thought this?

This whole tread is stupid, some myths are not myths but facts and sometimes the comparison is like here is an apple but oranges are much better style.
