Examine the yellow block above for a long time. Is it dizzying after a while? Perhaps even nauseous? If this is the case, you are not alone. A number of studies have found that the colour yellow can make people feel dizzy and nauseated. As a result, it is frequently used sparingly (or very strategically) by those in advertising and is almost never used in the interiors of various modes of transportation, most notably aeroplanes.

A girl's brain is busy developing fine motor skills, verbal skills, and social skills in her first five years of life, all of which are highly valued by parents and teachers. Meanwhile, a boy's brain is hard at work developing gross motor, spatial, and visual skills. All of these abilities are useful for hunting. As a result, when it comes to learning and fitting in, boys frequently start school at a distinct disadvantage.

If you ask an American what they are, they will respond American. If you ask someone from the United Kingdom, they may claim to be British. According to The Rakyat Post, if you ask a Malaysian, they will most likely reply they are Malay, Chinese, Indian, or Dan Lain Lain, which means "other." Malaysia has a Malay population of 55%, a Chinese population of 25%, and an Indian population of 10%. There are more than 60 sub-ethnic groupings in Sarawak and Sabah alone. Malaysia is a unique melting pot of cultures, with a diverse spectrum of nationalities, and is a popular destination for travellers and expats from all over the world.

Russia, you never cease to astonish me. A diner whose sole employees are identical twins, you may add, and they will respond, "Yes, we have that too." You read that correctly, this café in Russia's lovely city, Moscow, is a must-see for any visitor who arrives since both the cost and the cuisine are excellent. In addition, only twins take, prepare, and serve your order. That is unusual since it is the only restaurant in the world that hires only twins. Another fantastic guideline is that the twins must wear absolutely similar clothing. The owner is reported to have had the idea after seeing the film "Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors."

You may hear people claim to be natural multitaskers, and you've probably even seen it in job descriptions, but humans simply cannot multitask. You can listen to music while working, but your brain can only handle one higher-functioning task at a time. That means you'll either be working and ignoring the music, or you'll be working and ignoring the music. People are incapable of thinking about two things at the same time.

A translator rewrote the story in the 1600s. When the prince attempted to follow Cinderella, Aschenputtel (Cinderella) lost her left shoe at the stairwell.

The notion that Einstein struggled at school is a fiction. A pre-teen Einstein would study mathematics and physics for fun over the summers, finally mastering differential and integral calculus by the age of 15. But it doesn't mean he was a model student. Einstein despised rote learning and refused to study things that bore him. As a result, when the stubborn number-lover took the polytechnic school admission exam in Zurich, he flunked the language, zoology, and botany parts.

In the good ol' USA, around 300 billion pizzas are sold each year. Not only that, but 93 percent of Americans have eaten pizza in the last month, according to a recent survey.

Cheese rolling is one of the oddest sports that takes place every spring in Gloucestershire, in the west of England. An 8-pound round of Double Gloucester cheese is rolled from the top of Cooper Hill, and competitors pursue it down to the bottom. They are intended to catch the cheese, but it is nearly impossible, thus the first person to cross the finish line wins the cheese.

First and foremost, we're not debating whether ham and pineapple belong on a pizza. Sam Panopoulos immigrated to Canada from Greece in 1954. In Chatham, Ontario, he worked as a cook at the Satellite Restaurant. Panopoulos came up with the notion of using canned pineapple on pizza in 1962. His inspiration for this unusual combo came from Chinese Sweet and Sour style food. Because of the odd fruity component, the Hawaiian pizza was first disliked. However, as people tried it, the new topping quickly became a popular option all around the world! Hawaiian pizza has nothing to do with the Hawaiian Islands. It was called after the brand of canned pineapples that they first used.

For millions of people, the coffee break is an important but often overlooked part of their day. The town of Stoughton, Wisconsin, hosts an annual Coffee Break Festival to pause and honour the break.

According to city officials, the coffee break "was born" in the city in the late 1800s, when women working at the local Gunderson Tobacco Warehouse started the ritual of pausing during the workday to brew some coffee and chat.

Speaking of astronauts, their experience has shown that transitioning from weightlessness to gravity can be taxing on the body. Muscles atrophy and bones lose bone mass in the absence of gravity. According to NASA, astronauts in space can lose 1% of their bone mass per month.

Scientists from the University of Birmingham investigated bikers aged 55 to 79 who ride their bikes for many hours each day. These researchers discovered that cycling in old age keeps muscle mass and strength from deteriorating. And the fat and cholesterol levels remained constant. However, the most incredible discovery is that cyclists' systems generate immunological T-cells in equal numbers to 20-year-olds. It's incredible since T-cell production begins to decline around the age of 20. This demonstrates that riding a bicycle makes the immune system younger.

The Salem witch trials took place between February 1692 and May 1693 in Salem, Massachusetts. Nearly 200 individuals, including the destitute, the elderly, and a four-year-old kid, were accused of witchcraft. The vast majority were imprisoned, and some were executed by hanging. However, none of these people were ever burned alive.

Do you consider all of your decisions, weighing all of your options and calculating the impact of each outcome? You may believe you are, but you are incorrect. The majority of your decisions are made subconsciously because your conscious mind would be overwhelmed with information and you would likely become mentally frozen. This is because your brain receives over 11 million bits of information every second, and there simply isn't enough "brainpower" to process it all consciously.

Why, even if you're not weary, do you yawn when someone else does? There are several hypotheses as to why yawning is contagious, but one of the most popular is that it demonstrates empathy. People who are less inclined to demonstrate empathy, such as toddlers who haven't yet learned it or young people with autism, are also less likely to yawn in response to someone else's.

If you like crunching ice after finishing your Coke, you may be anaemic. The persistent chewing of ice, also known as "pagophagia," may be more than simply a nervous tick, but a technique of cooling inflammation in the mouth caused by a shortage of iron.

Ancient Egyptians regarded cats to be sacred creatures. Most households are said to have kept a cat as a pet because they felt it would bring them good luck!

Robin Dunbar, a psychologist and the director of Oxford University's Social and Evolutionary Neuroscience research department, believes that every guy should spend at least two hours a week with 4-5 buddies. They can use this time any way they choose, from sports to going to bars. According to Dunbar, guys with faithful friends are less likely to be sad and have a better immune system.

This study was inspired by evidence obtained from wrongful conviction cases. The study involved interviewing adult suspects in a comfortable setting and employing poor memory retrieval techniques. Within three hours, the suspects had been interrogated in ways that led them to believe in and confess to crimes they had not committed. They were even able to vividly describe the events, and some of them believed they had committed a crime as serious as assault with a weapon as teenagers. Are you willing to be persuaded?

According to research, our brain can only keep 3-4 pieces of information at a time. Furthermore, this data can only be saved for 20-30 seconds. We forget it after this period unless we keep renewing it in our minds over and again. For example, you are driving while chatting on the phone (do not do this!). The person on the other end of the line gives you a number, but you can't write it down, so you memorize it. You repeat the number several times to keep it in your short-term memory until you disconnect and write it down.
