Or from Snapple bottles/my fact-fun book/random crap on the internet.

Pneumothorax is a lung condition in which your alveoli burst, letting the air escape into your chest cavity. Then, due to atmospheric pressure, if the air is not pumped out, the patient's lungs will proceed to be CRRRUUSHED mercilessly. And ironically, the alveoli heal while it's...shrinking.

mmm... porphyria is a disease amongst both plant life AND animals... and in the past people suffering from strains of the disease was often mistaken for vampires due to their severe anemia and sensitivity to sunlight...

up until the 17th century "werewolf tongues" were considered a form of currency in France...

According to the endosymbiotic theory, in the beginning mitochondria were microorganisms on their own, and then one day it went "Ah, a cell. I invade you!!! >.<" And they've kind of stayed inside our cells ever since :3

camels have very long eyelashes that prevent them from getting sand into their eyes. so if anyone tells you you have eyes like a camel...take it as a compliment, you have beautiful eyelashes

The longest film ever released was "****" by Andy Warhol, which lasted 24 hours. It proved, not surprisingly (except perhaps to its creator) an utter failure.

Jean-Claude Van Damme was the alien in the original PREDATOR in almost all the jumping and climbing scenes.
