Unbelievable but True: Simple Facts that will make your day

Human beings are a crazy species. We are often searching for information through reading books, magazines, newspaper or even over the internet. However, it is impossible to learn all that there is to know. It is actually impossible to say that you know 'everything' there is to know. Even on a single subject, you can never know everything. This is because there is a development of new information on a topic every day. As we continue living our lives, new things come up thus creating more and more information for you to digest.
 
Anyhow, there are some simple facts that have remained unchanged and most of us do not even know them. This is just a list of 15 of the ones I found most interesting. You can add more on the comment form.
