People will often say they know something “like the back of their hand” to indicate that they’re familiar with it top to bottom. But how much do you actually know about your own body? We’ve got 10 tidbits that may surprise you.  1.) You’ll be about 1cm shorter when you go to bed at night compared to when you wake up in the morning. Your cartilage in your spine slowly compresses throughout the day.  2.) In just 30 minutes, your body can produce enough heat to boil half a gallon of water.  3.) Don’t stick out your tongue if you want to hide your identity. Similar to fingerprints, everyone also has a unique tongue print!  4.) There are more than 300,000,000 capillaries in your lungs and if they were stretched out tip to tip they would reach approximately the distance between Atlanta and LA.  5.) Your brain uses about 20% of your oxygen and caloric intake.  6.) In each kidney, there are 1 million filters that clean around 1.3 liters of blood every minute and push out close to 1.5 liters of urine every day.  7.) Everyone has a completely unique smell (except for twins).  8.) An adult has fewer bones than a baby. We start off life with 350 bones, but because bones fuse together during growth, we end up with only 206 as adults.  9.) Your bones, pound for pound, are 4x stronger than concrete.  10.) The air from a human sneeze can travel at speeds of 100 miles per hour or more — another good reason to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze — or duck when you hear one coming your way.
