Things to Know:

If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.
(Hardly seems worth it.)

If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.
(Now that's more like it!)

The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet.
(O.M.G.!)

A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes.
(In my next life, I want to be a pig.)

A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death. (Creepy.)
(I'm still not over the pig.)

Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour
(Don't try this at home,maybe at work)

The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off.
(Honey, I'm home. What the...?!)

The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping the length of a football field.
(30 minutes..lucky pig! Can you imagine?)

The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds.
(What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond?)

Some lions mate over 50 times a day.
(I still want to be a pig in my next life...quality over quantity)

Butterflies taste with their feet.
(Something I always wanted to know.)

The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue.(Hmmmmmm......)

Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people.
(If you're ambidextrous, do you split the difference?)

Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump.
(Okay, so that would be a good thing)

A cat's urine glows under a black light.
(I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)

An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain.(I know some people like that.)

Starfish have no brains..
(I know some people like that too.)

Polar bears are left-handed.
(If they switch, they'll live a lot longer)

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.
(What about that pig??)

Mike's bit about the pig has reminded me of a story.

A farmer had three prize sows but they couldn't get pregnant no matter how many boars he mated them with. He was telling another farmer who said he was welcome to try Harry, his prize boar out.

He said "You have to get the timing right. In the morning, if you look out of the window & the sows are running round and eating, you know that they're pregnant. If they're lying down, they're not."

Next day he put the sows in the back of his Jeep and drove them up to his mate's farm & introduced them to Harry the Boar.

Next morning, he looks out of the window and to his disappointment, they're all lying down. He puts them in the jeep again & takes them for another session with Harry. Next morning, they're lying down again.

This carried on for two weeks....every day - in the jeep to see Harry. By the end of the two weeks, he says to his wife. "I can't be bothered today, do us a favour and tell me what those sows are doing".

His wife looks out of the window & said "There's two in the back of the Jeep & one in the front seat, beeping the horn".

I'm here all week.
