1. It’s physically possible to die of a broken heart. It was seen in either mice or frogs, after them having a large emotional response to
something, their heart valves collapsed.

2. Schizophrenia can hit randomly from the ages of 15 to 26 if it is in your genetics. Some people are totally fine, then bam, auditory
hallucinations and delusions start happening.

Edit* Yes, it is possible before and after those ages, but since schizophrenia is triggered after adolescence and before the brain is done
developing it usually occurs between those ages of 15 to 26.

3. There are over 200 corpses on Mount Everest and they are used as way points for climbers.

4. That sound you hear on some cartoons when planes (or anything) goes into a dive was taken from a Nazi dive bomber as a form of psychological warfare, and it is likely that particular recording was the last thing someone heard.
looney tunes has a lot of these.

5. In the English north east town of Hartlepool an abandoned French warship washed up ashore. The only thing onboard was a monkey dressed in a navy uniform. Having never seen French people before the people of hartlepool assumed the monkey was a French person and was put on trial in court and was eventually hanged for not answering any of their questions.

People from Hartlepool to this day are called "monkey hangers" as an insult and the town has statues of monkeys all over.


6. Dolly Parton lost a Dolly Parton look alike contest to 6 foot overly exaggerated fake breasted drag queen. And after the show the winner walked up to Dolly Parton and said her tits were too small.


7. Have you ever thought about how whales and dolphins die?

When they get too old and weak to swim to the surface to breathe, they start sinking into the cold, dark depths of the ocean, and suffocate.
when a whale dies and sinks it's actually called whale fall and it creates entire sea floor ecosystems

8. If you live to become the oldest person alive, the entire human population has been replaced in your lifetime. Except you

9. Quite likely, not everyone who commented here will make it till Christmas.

10. Pinworms come out of your butt at night and you can catch them on a strip of duct tape.

11. The picture for your funeral program may have already been taken.

12. Whenever there’s an earthquake bodies in graves shake around like maracas.
13. Your body will only hurt more and more as time goes on. Sometimes you'll get new (back, shoulder, finger) pain all at once, and it won't go away ever again, except for fleeting moments.

14. The fact that we developed nuclear weapons before color television.
15. Most laugh tracks played in sitcoms we recorded around the early 50's. A good amount of the people you hear are dead.

16. Prions. When proteins in your body misfold, they create prions, which then infect neighbouring proteins causing them to misfold, creating a chain reaction and eventually eating holes in your brain.

All known prion diseases are fatal. They can kill you in a bunch of fun ways, including taking away your ability to sleep or your ability to chew and swallow. They're also extremely contagious, and since they're not a virus, non-killable.

And to top it all off, symptoms can take years to appear. So you can be infected with prions in your system right now and not know it.
