The venom in one bite is thought to be enough to kill 100 adults.

We are always told that chocolate causes tooth decay, but it actually prevents tooth decay. The antibacterial agents in the cocoa beans inhibit the growth of the cavity-causing bacteria in the mouth and prevent tooth decay. But yes! This doesn't give you the right to eat chocolates daily

Chia seeds make a gelatinous mixture when soaked in water, plant milk, or any other liquid, which is ideal for making a creamy pudding or thick sauce. The soluble fiber in chia also has the added benefit of stabilising blood sugar levels and lowering cholesterol. With this pantry essential, everyone wins.

The films remain ambiguous on Natasha Romanov's age, simply implying that she is old enough to have been nurtured by the KGB. In the comics, though, she has been able to survive for decades thanks to different medical operations and pieces of biotechnology. As the KGB fades from memory, it's increasingly likely that the youthful Natasha is considerably older than she appears. She's reported to be 70 years old in the comics!

Lower levels are almost biologically dead. One of the most intriguing aspects of the Black Sea is its absence of oxygen, which is required for life. Because oxygen can only be dissolved in the sea's top layers, anything below 230-330 feet in the centre and 330-500 feet at the edge is effectively a dead zone. Only particular bacteria can thrive in these areas, which account for more than 90% of the deeper water.

The world-famous energy drink Red Bull was made in Bangkok by Chaleo Yoovidhya in 1976. He had moved from central Thailand to Bangkok with very little formal education but managed to build a multimillion empire with the help of his Australian business partner Dietrich Mateschitz. At the time of his death in 2012, Yoovidhya was the third richest man in Thailand with an estimated wealth of USD 5 billion. 

However, the syrupy drink he made is quite different from the carbonated version enjoyed across the globe. At some shops in Bangkok, you can find both versions, and decide which one you prefer for yourself.

At the time of his birth, Leonardo's full name was Lionardo di ser Piero da Vinci, which translates as "Leonardo, (son) of ser Piero from Vinci." To his contemporaries, he was simply known as Leonardo or "Il Florentine" — since he resided close to Florence.

Glass can be recycled indefinitely with no loss of quality or purity.

Marie and Pierre Curie took part in examinations of Eusapia Palladino, an Italian medium who claimed she could channel the dead, and attended a series of seances two years after obtaining the Nobel Prize in Physics. Pierre obviously believed that some of Palladino's accomplishments, such as levitating items and tables, were genuine. (Marie didn't appear to be as convinced.)

Not only do dog owners live longer lives than non-dog owners, but they are also more likely to survive and recover from catastrophic health crises such as a heart attack or stroke. Why? According to the American Heart Association, "interacting with dogs can increase your production of 'happy chemicals' such as oxytocin, serotonin, and dopamine." "This can result in a higher sense of well-being as well as a reduction in levels of the stress hormone cortisol. Having a dog can also help decrease blood pressure and cholesterol, as well as alleviate depression and enhance fitness."

Tulsi leaf extract has been demonstrated to reduce blood glucose levels in type 2 diabetes patients.

Try exfoliating if you have rough skin. By allowing new cells to emerge from beneath the skin's surface when you exfoliate, you help to even out the skin's surface. 

To combat the dead, complexion-dulling skin cells that give your skin a tired look, exfoliate frequently — say, once a week or so.

When it comes to creepy facts about mirrors, no one beats Bloody Mary's mirror folklore. It is said that if you chant 'Bloody Mary' 13 times in a dark room while looking in the mirror, she will appear. This is a myth that we are too scared to test for ourselves. This myth, which dates back to 1978, is said to summon a vengeful spirit, which is a creepy fact about mirrors.

There are quite a few landmarks around the Harvard campus. The most famous one is known as the statue of three lies. It’s called so to account for its three inaccuracies. The sculpture states that it is of John Harvard, the founder of Harvard and that Harvard was founded in 1638. However, John Harvard was not the founder of the university, he was the first major benefactor. Also, Harvard was founded in 1636 and not 1638. What’s more? The sculpture isn’t of John Harvard at all, but that of some unknown student.
 

At best, there is debate on the research on whether or not stingrays enjoy being touched. For instance, research from the AZA-certified Shedd Aquarium in Chicago suggested that the animals don't suffer from their contact with people and may even enjoy them in 2017. 5 However, only a year later, 34 of the 42 cow nose stingrays that were part of the touch exhibit at the aquarium unexpectedly passed away. 

The front of the Rolls Royce starring the Spirit of Ecstasy — an early hood peculiar to a Rolls Royce was prone to being tossed off its front. This booty hack is no longer a possible with the current models, thanks to a safety device that allows the mascot to retract quickly into the body of the car when force is applied. If you're wondering what the word means, it refers to the illicit love affair between John Walter, editor of The Car Illustrated magazine, and his secretary, Eleanor Velasco Thorton. Sultry and hot!

Microfiber is often regarded as the most efficient cleaning substance on the planet. Individual strands of a cleaning cloth are never broken. They are similar to wires. And, unlike cotton, which is formed of short strands that always come off while washing and attach to the surface after an electrostatic change, the fabric itself is like a net of wires with no holes. Strands in a standard microfiber cloth never fall off since they span from one end of the fabric to the other and cannot come off when washing! Microfiber fabric is formed from splitted and conjugated polyester and polyamide fibres. These fibres are exceptionally soft and have good dimensional stability. They keep their form extremely nicely.

€1 638 million worth of candles were produced in the EU in 2018. In comparison to 2013, the value has increased by 11%.

That's enough pencils to circle the globe 62 times, believe it or not.

It takes a lot of water to produce the cotton required for clothing. To put these figures in context, the amount of water required to make a t-shirt is enough to keep one person hydrated for 900 days, whereas the amount of water required to make a pair of jeans is equivalent to hosing down your lawn for 9 hours.

When the weatherman reports a "real feel" temperature of -10 degrees outside, it may appear as if he made up the figure on the spot. Wind chill, on the other hand, is calculated using a complex equation devised by meteorologists. Wind Chill = 35.74 + 0.6215T – 35.75(V0.16) + 0.4275T(V0.16) for math nerds who want to try it at home.

Data analysis by Vocativ (via Yahoo! News) found that more world leaders are Scorpios than any other sign, with 22 powerful representatives. Scorpios are known for their independence and ambition, which may assist them in climbing the ladder.

The human population of Australia is around 25,704,340. In 2009/2010, The Australian Govt counted 27 million kangaroos across New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, and Western Australia.

Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom penned this in 1841, following the British takeover of Hong Kong. Possession Point, where the British first raised the Union Jack, was known as Tai Hang Hau, or 'great puddle.' It was accumulating water directly on the island's shoreline. Today, the site is known as Hollywood Road Park.
