Day 1 Take a deck of cards that is not in new deck order and then give then a generic and random shuffle them. You just created a brand new combination of 52 cards that has literally never happened before in all of history since cards were invented. Go ahead and shuffle them again and as many times as you like. Every single time you will have created a unique set of cards that has literally never existed before in history. No person has ever shuffled the cards and created the same set of 52 cards in the order you just created |

Day 2 On average if it is raining outside and you do not have an umbrella you will actually get LESS wet if you walk at a normal pace through the rain than if you run through the rain.

Day 3 The placebo effect still works even if you tell the person they are getting a placebo and not a real drug. If you are not familiar with the placebo effect it is a harmless pill, medicine, or procedure that will not physically do what the placebo claims it will do, but tricks your brain into believing the desired outcome happened anyway |

Day 5 There are at least 17 distinctly different kinds of ice. You likely have only ever seen one type call Type I ice. The rest of the types of ice form under different pressures and temperatures. One of the types occurs when water freezes and it has absolutely no room to expand. Not even Niel Degrassi Tyson knows this type of ice exists Bonus fact: |

Day 6 Recently in history bad eye sight has increased far faster than genetics can account for. After looking into it, science has determined the best way to ensure children do not need glasses is to ensure their eyes get exposed to a proper amount of sunlight. Children who get little to no sunlight are much more likely to need glasses. Bonus fact: |

Day 7 We have yet to actually discover why humans need sleep. We do know a few good things that sleep does, but it is not known why it is 100% necessary to live. You will die if you manage to go too long without sleep. There is even a rare genetic disease called fatal familial insomnia (FFI) that always eventually leads to death |

Day 17 Quantum Physics. All of it. If you don’t know anything or much about quantum physics it is literally black magic where things literally appear out of thin air, or completely morph and change into other things. A particle can be a wave or a particle. Simply observing a particle can permanently change how the particle acts. The craziest example of this is the quantum eraser. |

Day 18 Trophy hunting exotic or endangered animals actually is a much greater good more often than it is bad. People pay very large sums of money to be able to legally trophy hunt these animals and this money really is used to protect these animals as a whole and ensures that there will always be more of these animals. After all if the species would go extinct now then these places would lose all the income generated from it. Also if you are the people who have to live next to say lions, you don’t actually care very much how cute or cool that lions are. All you care about is feeding your family and not dying because of lions. Providing these people with an income makes the people who actually have to live with these animals want to keep them alive. |

Day 22 In order to make seedless watermelon you still need to make seeded watermelon. Not just to carry on the plant lineage but actually in order to make seedless watermelon at all. Seedless watermelon plants require the pollen of a seeded watermelon plants to produce it’s fruit, so farmers typically plant 50% seeded watermelon and 50% seedless in order to get as much seedless watermelon as possible ❧ Edited by vzJustice at 2020-07-19 01:18:472020-07-19 01:18 |
