The tale Walt Disney undoubtedly had a special affection for Peter Pan because, in addition to being a box office success for him in 1953, it brought back memories of his youth. Young Walt was given the chance to perform as the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up in a school play after seeing Peter Pan on stage. Walt later recalled that Roy, one of his many creative partners, was in charge of the rope that was used to hoist him over the stage to simulate flying.

Astronauts who return from space are 3% taller than when they left. Because of the lack of gravity, they are taller, and their cartilage discs expand in microgravity. You stand higher in the morning because your spine has been free of gravity's downward pull for 8 hours. The rest also allows your spinal disc cartilage to plump up, making you taller!

While some cats like catnip, others utterly disregard it. It all boils down to genetics when it comes to whether or not your cat enjoys eating. "The catnip reaction is an autosomal dominant feature," explains Dr. Lauren Demos, president of the American Association of Feline Practitioners. "As a result, it is inherited from a cat's parents—if neither parent responds, neither will their offspring."

In Paris, there are more than 300,000 dogs. Dogs are unquestionably man's best friend, but Parisians take it to a whole new level. In Paris, people sincerely care about their pets, spending nearly half a million dollars to ensure their dogs receive the greatest care; it's not uncommon to see their owners giving their pups to a doggie spa session. We adore dogs here at MEININGER, so bring them along when you travel; they are more than welcome to stay in our hotels.

There is no clear link between a full moon and howling wolves. Wolves communicate by howling, and they elevate their heads to make the sound go further. Wolves may also howl in full darkness. However, because moonlight evenings are generally windless, the howling is just easier to hear. Furthermore, without moonlight, it is impossible to observe a howling wolf.

Melanism can be an advantageous evolutionary process. Panther facts reveal that darker members of a species are frequently more disguised and so more likely to survive and reproduce. This is especially true in some environmental environments, such as deep woodland areas with minimal light, where melanism is more widespread. Melanism is thus passed on by a dominant gene in Panthera onca, the kind of panther derived from the jaguar species. This implies that although black jaguars can have either black or spotted offspring, normal jaguars can only have spotted cubs.

Stephen Strange has always been more about intelligence than brute strength. Strange wins by out-thinking his opponents rather than out-zapping them, which is part of what made the Lee/Ditko run remarkable. He can pack a punch when necessary, both physically and magically. Mordo creates a whole cult to seek down his archfoe in Strange Tales #130 and 131. They get a nasty surprise when they approach him from behind before he can cast a spell: Stephen's magical training includes martial arts. They are really potent. Defenders #9 demonstrated that Strange is more than just skilled. He can compete with Mantis, who is among the finest Marvel martial artists.

One of our favourite amusing facts about Poland is that it is home to the world's first upside down house. The topsy-turvy wooden home was erected upside down in a forest and appears to be something out of a storybook. Visitors must enter the home through the attic windows and may walk around the furnished interior, which is evocative of Communist Poland in the 1970s, to symbolise how Communist control turned life in Poland upside down. Hundreds of interested visitors have visited the home since its unveiling in 2007, and it is located in the little Polish town of Szymbark, which has a population of roughly 500 people.

The coconut bought in western shops does not resemble the ones growing on the tree. There are three layers to an unopened coconut. The exocarp is the outermost layer, which is usually smooth and green or yellow in colour. The fibrous husk, or mesocarp, is the next layer. The final one is called the endocarp, and it envelopes the seed. When you buy a coconut at the shop, the exocarp and mesocarp are usually removed, leaving only the endocarp.

If you've ever seen stage hypnosis for entertainment purposes, you've probably seen the entertainer/hypnotist select a seemingly random group of audience members to come up on stage and "be hypnotized." But, as with any good show, not everything is as it appears. Various scientific studies have found that some people are more susceptible to hypnotic suggestion. These people are more easily persuaded into the subconscious mind than others. These people are frequently "tested" ahead of time, even if they are unaware of it.

This festival received this honor when 1 million people visited it in 2006.
