Useless facts

I'm really bored.

Donkeys kill more people annually than plane crashes.

1 in every 4 Americans has appeared on television.

The fist product to have a bar code was Wrigleys gum.

A Boeing 747's wingspan is longer than the Wright brother's first flight.

American Airlines saved $40,000 in 1987 by eliminating 1 olive from each salad served in first-class.

The plastic things on the end of shoelaces are called aglets.

If you're going to eat fast food, the odds are 2 out of 5 you will buy it at McDonald's, 1 out of 5 you will choose Burger King, and 1 out of 10 for Hardee's and for Wendy's.

The first owner of the Marlboro company died of lung cancer.

The world's largest McDonalds is located on I-44 at Vinita, Oklahoma. It goes from one side of the interstate to the other, passing over the interstate.

Due to precipitation, for a few weeks K2 is bigger than Mt Everest.

Better facts that I didn't list

It is estimated that at any one time, 0.7% of the world's population are drunk.

You share your birthday with at least 9 million other people in the world.

The number of cars on the planet is increasing 3 times faster than the population growth.

The average human eats 8 spiders in their lifetime at night.

The average woman consumes 6 pounds of lipstick in her lifetime.

Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.

If the population of China walked past you in single file, the line would never end because of the rate of reproduction.

World population is... what 6 billion?
So 42 billion people are drunk all the time?
____

Also, I would have to think that with 365 days in a year, on average, a person would share their birthday with 16.4 million people.

Our skin weighs 15 pounds, making it the largest organ in our body.

Most people have red as a favourite colour

It is impossible to sneeze and keep your eyes open at the same time

An average man weighs forty times as much as his brain

The human stomach can hold two pints of liquid

There are forty five miles of nerves in a human being
