I disagree with no 6 cos it depends on body type.

I lost the nails of my ring and middle fingers respectively;on13th Nov. last year in an auto crash, and they have grown back under 3 months.

Some of these research looks like an exaggerated research to me. Are all these 100% scientifically proven to be true?
I do not believe in no 6.

I dream both during boring lectures little sleep back in the days. Sometimes it gets difficult for me to separate my dreams from reality as I can dream in a 5mins sleep and feel like I didn't sleep. It even causes me headache sometimes as my brain would not feel the rest after sleeping and dreaming all through the sleep. I know am a very sensitive person and have a high sense of smell, sound, touch, taste and sight. Able to analyse situations and understand people's motives and perspective in a flash of light. Does it have anything to do with my IQ level @op or anyone knowledgeable on this matter?

23. The heat your body is capable of producing in half an hour could boil a gallon of water.





Dongreat if this is true, then as at this moment when everywhere and everything is hot in the country, the degree of hotness in half an hour can boil 550 tanks of water or even burn a building.
