3 out of every 4 people make up 75% of the worlds population

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

75% of the people make up 3/4 of the population.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Info stealer!!

If I remember correctly, they tested on mythbusters that you would get more wet running.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, by using simple physics equations, you can figure out it would be more tireing to run.

 

 

 

W=fd

 

 

 

The work is expended the same, but when you take power=w/t

 

 

 

you'd find it takes less time to run, which makes you use more power.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think I got it right :?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Your right, they did test it on myth busters. It's because when your running your moving into the rain, therefore the front of your clothes gets wet, but if u walk the rain onl goes on the top of your clothes :wink:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They also only did it over a short distance, therefore the small amount of difference in weight

Pluto (if you still consider it a planet) is neither Jovian (like Jupiter) nor Terrestrial (like Earth and Mars). It might be a type of planet in its own right ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ã

Dwarf Planet rick. A planetoid is the rterms used to describe any celestial body with planet type characteristics. Including but not limited to: Dwarf planet, Asteroid, Kuiper belt object etc.

It's mammals, elephants are the only mammals that can't jump.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sloth.

i sorta got this idea from "useless runescape facts"... :anxious: but basically u put down random facts u have learned from ur lifetime, either someone told u about it, read about it, or some how have learned it. try not to make any that most people know... heres a few that i know:

 

 

 

-if u run in the rain, rather than walk, u'll get LESS wet

 

 

 

-if u run up the stairs, u'll get less tired than if u walked instead

 

 

 

-vikings used to chew on the "death cap" mushroom, before battle, to make them berserk, and to dullen their pain

 

 

 

thats just 3 i know... write urs here! :thumbsup:

Our physic's teacher just told us that there's difference in the power if u

 

 

 

run or walk calced as energy used shared by time in seconds example:u

 

 

 

run 100 metres in 10 secs it's, how much energy u used to run that 100 metres/10.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If u walk the same distance in 20 secs it will be: energy used (same than

 

 

 

when running ( can be even bit less cause of longer steps)/20.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then ur power when running is 2 times bigger but the WORk is same. (well

 

 

 

atleast as close same that we can say same)

A piece of Antartica is about to melt within 20-25 years and will raise sea levels by 20 feet. Also in Greenland, a piece is about to melt 20-25 years too, that will raise sea levels by 18 feet.

at some part in plutos orbit of the sun it goes inside neptunes orbit making it not the furthest planet, until it goes bac out

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

horses sleep standing up and only lie down wen they are sick...or dead

Wrong. While horses CAN sleep standing up as a defence mechanism they can only go into a deep sleep while lying down. In fields horses will take many "naps" stoof up but most horses sleep laying down when they are in their stalls, as they know that they are safe from predators.

They revisited it jus recently and found the results to be bogus

Apparently, the Great Wall of China is the only man-made physical object visible from space.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This may not be true. Apparently, however, it is.

People should check their facts first.

Their falling counts as jumping.

[wolvieee]

Captain Blackbeard, hid lit fuses in his hat to scare enemies!

[Parabola]

Their falling counts as jumping.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And so an elephant walking off a cliff counts as jumping. Of course falling doesn't count as jumping, then a worm could jump, as could a rock.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jumping is making yourself airborne on level ground.

actually jumping is propelling oneself upward.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Therefore when sloths swing from trees they are jumping

[bagel_love]

Some birds tuck their leg up into the tummy when they are sleeping, creating the illusion that they actually have 1 leg

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ehhh

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some birds keep there legs in to keep more warmth in

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The sky is blue

[evil_mumm_ra]

wow...i can't even name any odd facts that i know because there are so many...i am on the academic team at school(basically a school sponsored quiz team with competitions and trophies). i learn at least like 10-20 new useless things every wednesday...then proceed to forget most of them

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i do know that conan o'brien is 6'2".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and that the sky has actually been green in color at one point.

Ha! They don't swing from trees, the fastest they can move is 15 feet per minute (0.17 miles per hour) which totally precludes swinging.

no.. if you walk in the rain you get less wet!

This topic just proves how badly most people here would do on QI ^_^

Fine, but they can leap if they hear a distressing call from their young.

 

 

 

Elephants can't leap.
