Science type dudes at 3M were trying to invent a super strong glue, but due to an error, they accidently made a rather weak glue which they noticed would stick paper to objects without leaving any residue behind.
This is how the post it note was invented by mistake and made the company a fortune  |

"I think theres a guy called green boots, apparently he sat down and never got back up, he and many others are on the main path. Shame no-one brings them down
"
In fact "green boots" died as a result of the 1997 Everest disaster his body is still on the main route to the summit and trekkers often have to tred over his out stretched legs...the person you refer to is English man David Sharp who sat down for a rest near green boots and died as a result of exposure and exhaustion. His body is still in a sat position and exactly the position he died...people spoke to him but were unable to help as they would of put their own lives at risk...
Bodies cannot be brought down due to the danger and expense and often the people have requested before they try to get to the summit that if they die they wish for their body to remain on Everest...in 1999 they discovered the body of a explorer that had died in1924 |

if you stretched out the DNA in your body right now it would reach the moon.
if you did the same thing with the amount a body replicates in an average lifetime it would reach the sun.
and 1 out of 3 replications produce an error in humans. most don't matter though, they're inconsequential. |

And after DHL, did you know Adidas comes from the name of it's founder, Adolf Dassler.
And for a bonus his brother Rudolf who obviously thought sharing your first name with a comic reindeer was more of a handicap than being linked to a mass murderer, called his sportswear business, Puma. |

Typewriter is the longest word in English that can be typed on the top row of the QWERTY keyboard.
And
QWERTY is actually an acceptable word in Scrabble. |

It's possible to be accidentally made, although briefly, the richest person on earth. It's possible for a bank, or something like PayPal to credit your account with around £9,223,372,036,854,775,807
It's happened before, and is a result of something called stack underflow, which is basically wheb a computer messes up a calculation or request it was asked.
This means that PayPal could theoretically credit you with more money than earth actually has. |

So...
Useless fact I had one and couldn't remember it...
Then I was dozing off and BAM...
c 1840-5 a French street mime artist mimed himself into a box. So convinced was he that he was in a box and unable to escape he died from dehydration.
Do I win?

the shame, mine was wrong anyway.
our body contains enough DNA to reach the sun and we produce a light years worth of DNA over our life time. not that anyone cares, just i realised i did that wrong. |

Snakes and lizards have what is called hemipenes, which is essentially a two-headed penis. Two penises might sound pretty wild, but the deformity does occur in some humans as well.
One man who claims to have two fully-functional penises goes by the name DiphallicDude or DoubleDickDude – which has morphed into just DDD online. |

Indeed, I was just trying to keep it simple for the early hours of the morning! (I used to breed geckos) |

The human penis is shaped such that when thrust in and out of a vagina it will naturally pump fluids out ... Suggesting that in our evolution gang bangs were the norm and the last man in pumped out as much spunk as he could before planting his own seed.
Hence we need to push in and out before cumming.
Dogs, rabbits and the like do the same.
Other animals simply insert penis and deposit spunk, e.g. Birds, reptiles, cows, etc.

"There are more English speakers in china than the USA!
Oh and birds don't urinate, fact!
Correct, poor and pee are excreted together. "
The white is urine, the brown is stool,
If the white is chalky white, the bird is dehydrated, clear is hydrated, if the stool is green, the bird is hungry, if it's black, it's over fed/eaten. Just saying haha |

No chance that evolution ever occurred.
Humanity started with a family union not with a gang bang.

"Thw beatles track -lucy in the sky with diamonds isnt about lsd but about pauls child calling their toy kite lucy "
Eh ? No it isn't . Julian brought a drawing home from school and John asked him what it was and he replied ' it's Lucy in the sky with diamonds'.
It's pretty well documented. |

Koala bears have a forked penis and a heart-shaped prostate. Female kangaroos have three vaginas and can keep a fetus dormant in a uterus whilst growing another joey to maturity. She can then switch back to the dormant fetus and have another joey without having sex again. |
