The renowned whirling photo of Neo's gravity-defying backbend was created using 120 separate digital still cameras and two film cameras.

The slam dunk, another major basketball technique, was outlawed from the 1967-1968 season until the 1976-1977 season.

Termites actually have intricate social systems, believe it or not. Because they are eusocial insects, they follow a caste system. Each caste plays a distinctive and significant role in maintaining the colony's efficiency. While some termites are in charge of construction, others are in charge of egg production. There is even a particular caste of termites that is only responsible for fighting!
