#45 That's not true. 35 feet from earth surface? That's physically impossible. The moon would be shredded to pieces. And 85 million years ago is the time where dinosaurs lived. If this where true, some dinosaurs could hit there head on the moon. Haha.

Fronia,
Exactly. Nevermind the fact that the Earth's surface can only ever be an average or that the orbital speed required to maintain, and then increase, such a distance is almost 23x the speed of sound

Charles, Big Brain Math Time:
When the Moon formed 4 bil yrs ago, it approx. 15,000-20,000 miles from Earth. It is now roughly 238,900 miles away.
The Moon moves away from the Earth at about 3.8 cm per year. 3.8cm x 85 mil yrs = 323 mil cm, or a little over 2,000 miles.
85 mil yrs ago, the Moon was approx. 236,900 miles away. Not a big difference.
(In the beginning, it was moving away much faster due to the momentum it had from it's formation. The pull of Earth's gravity has slowed it down.)

#9 Interesting story, actually. She was young and on something, molly I think, and they don't know if she fell in or jumped in on purpose, possibly as a suicide. Either way the water was too low and she couldn't get out again. Strangely, she was naked...

#4 common hibernating behaviour for numerous species of snake, not just rattlesnakes
#10 or maybe not, no one really knows, why even post this?
#36 is the dumbest thing I've ever read on this website, 'Lake Superior has dead bodies from the 1920s'...I'm sure it has dead bodies from the last 14k years since the Wisconsinan glaciation started to recede and people started living along its shores FFS

Natius,
#36 is referring to the fact that Lake Superior remains cold enough throughout the year to inhibit the growth of bacteria. Dead bodies don't decay as fast as they normally would, so the full carcasses still sit at the bottom of the lake.

#8 Really? A Juggalo is a fan of the rap duo Insane Clown Posse, also known as ICP. Who actually counted them?
#12 At some point, sure. So what? I picked up my dad when I was 16 and never picked him up again. No meaning there either
#10 Not a fact yet. Theories run that way and the way of a collapse and restart or, whatever else you can imagine including merging with an alternate universe (bubble). But, if you could show some proof, you'd have yourself a Nobel Prize. In any case, not a fact.

#35 Why do so many people seem to always think that something with no immediate explanation must be supernatural in origin? Heads up- it's literally never supernatural. Ever. That's not a real thing.

#15 Whut! Your existence STOPS when you die. Living is the entire of your existence, by definition. You die, the you that is you no longer exists. A concept people cannot get their heads around. But the afterlife is a matter of faith and hope that there's something after death...with no evidence to support it.

#15 Life is the definition of existence. You "exist" no more after death than you did before you were born.
If you want to get technical, the subatomic particles that comprise your body have existed since the universe began, and due to conservation of mass, will exist forever.

What happens after you die?
Lots of stuff. You just won't be there for any of it.

Nando, technically it is correct seeing it is believed the moon was formed when the Earth and another small planet collided. So you could say since the moon was once part of the Earth, that the moon was once touching the planet. But at that time it really wasn't the moon.

It can last days until their prey is too weak to be torn apart and devoured, Not hours. Komododragons don't follow the prey, if they cannot kill it in the first Place. They Can smell corpses from miles away.
