I don't know about most people, but I like looking at random facts. If you do to, or if you just know some, then post them here!

NOTE: Please do not use abbreviations or slang (ex. waznt, 2, blvd). Also, try not to repeat things. If you don't see a random fact on the current page, then you can post it. Otherwise, please don't. One last thing. Please number your facts in accordance to others, so if Fred has three facts, and Jane, who posted before him has two, Freds' last fact would be numbered 5.

Please do not post more than 15 facts at a time.

No profanity, please.

Copy-and-pasting is fine.

1. Childhood dreams are shorter than adult dreams and nearly 40% of them are nightmares, which may act as a coping mechanism.

2. Blueberry juice boosts memory.

3. The percentage of people dreaming in black and white started decreasing after the spread of color TV.

4. Laughter is a proven way to lose weight.

5. The shrimp's heart is in its head.

6. Charlie Chaplin once won third prize in a Charlie Chaplin look-alike contest.

7. On average, a woman’s heart beats faster than a man’s heart.

8. There are 86,400 seconds in day.

9. 'Jedi' is an official religion in Australia with over 70,000 followers.

10. A snail can slide over a razor blade without being hurt by producing slime that helps it slide harmlessly.

11. The first number that has an 'A' in it is 'thousand'.

12. Women blink nearly twice as much as men.

13. Elephants are the only mammals that can't jump.

14. February 1865 is the only month in recorded history not to have a full moon.

15. Horses can't vomit and pigs can't look up in the sky.

Hope you learned something! Please post!
