    more interesting facts;

    if you scaled a flea up to the size of an elephant, it could reach the Moon in one leap

    counting a zebra's stripes will tell you how old the animal is

    nettle soup will sting you if eaten cold

    Albania is the only country that has screened episodes of Fr. Ted (outside of Ire and GB)

    two objects dropped from the same height will alway bounce in the same direction

    a still-working laptop computer was found inside the belly of a captured Great White Shark in Queensland in 2004

    more people are killed by falling coconuts in Fiji each year than die there from car accidents

    Fidel Castro's beard is a fake. The only time he wears it is for public appearances

    January is banned in Equatorial Guinea due to an attempted coup there during that month in 1978. Instead, December lasts for 62 days.


    **** All of these facts are absolutely true ****

    "Two objects dropped from the same
    height will alway bounce in the same
    direction"
    So if I dropped two rugby balls from the same height, they would always bounce in the same direction? Really?

    That reminds me of my old physics lessons... "All objects fall at the same speed (9.8 metres per second)"

    Is that so? So a feather and a brick will fall at the same speed?

    Yeah, I call shenanigans on that one too.

    Here's a good one for you. If you fired a gun horizontally, and dropped a bullet from the same height, they'd both hit the ground at the same time.
    Let's get tooled up, blud!

    How? Sure the bullet that was fired from the gun would accelerate far quicker (meaning it would have a decent head start). I don't trust those weirdos.

    Gravity pulls down equally on the bullets, and the sideways motion is irrelevant.
