Your stomach has to produce a new layer of mucus every 2 weeks otherwise it will digest itself.
More people are killed annually by donkeys than airplane crashes. In eighteenth-century English gambling dens, there was an employee whose only job was to swallow the dice if there was a police raid. @Furyataurus

A disproportionately high number of people die on the toilet.
One of the things that occurs when people that try to push too hard is that they could die on the toilet from what's called the Valsalva manoeuvre. This added pressure on the intestines and colon corresponds to an added pressure in the abdominal and thoraic cavities. The vena cava (major veins leading back to the heart) are normally "held open" by the "negative pressure" (lower than atmospheric. When the pressure increases it pinches the vena cava closed and the blood can no longer go back to the heart. Consequently, the barroreceptors which measure blood pressure on the arterial side of the heart, notice a drop in pressure (due to the fact that blood is no longer being pumped) and so they trigger a "sympathetic response" that causes blood pressure to spike. The combination of blood pressure spiking (which can lead to stroke or other problems) and lack of blood being pumped to the heart (which starves the heart for oxygen and eventually can trigger a heart attack and/or heart failure). |

Every time you lick a stamp, you consume 1/10 of a calorie.
Studies show that if a cat falls off the seventh floor of a building it has about thirty percent less chance of surviving than a cat that falls off the twentieth floor. It supposedly takes about eight floors for the cat to realize what is occurring, relax and correct itself. The citrus soda 7-UP was created in 1929; '7' was selected after the original 7-ounce containers and 'UP' for the direction of the bubbles. 101 Dalmatians, Peter Pan, Lady and the Tramp, and Mulan are the only Disney cartoons where both parents are present and don't die throughout the movie. A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes. 'Stewardesses' is the longest word that is typed with only the left hand. |

That's one way of doing the Valsalva maneuver, mostly used in pressure gradient changes, i.e. diving, flying, etc. But the effect is still the same. It's also referred to as a vagal maneuver. |

To know if a number is divisible by 3, simply sum the digits and if the sum of the digits is divisible by 3, then the number is divisible by 3.
For example 12 is analyzed by 1+2 = 3 which is divisible by 3, therefore 12 is divisible by 3. (12/3 = 4) The trick even works for multiple iterations, for example: 1,234,567,890 = 1+2....+9+0 = 45 and 45 can be analyzed by 4+5 = 9 which is divisible by 3, therefore 1,234,567,890 is divisible by 3. (1,234,567,890/3 = 411,522,630) Going a level deeper:
137,174,210 = 1+3+...+1+0 = 26 which reduces to 2+6 = 8 which is not divisible by 3, therefore 137,174,210 is not divisible by 3 (137,174,210/3 = 45,724,736.67)

The first state to have an electric execution law was NY.
The first use of the electric chair was in Auburn NY on William Kemmler- a man who murdered his wife with an axe. They initially juiced him with 770 volts for 17 seconds. He did not die. Then they put 1,030 (some say up to 2,000) volts through him for two minutes. He died. The electric chair used was designed by the prisons electrician Edwin Davis who became the executioner. He went on to execute the assassin of President McKinley. The chair now resides in Swaby's Tavern in Auburn. |

Hockey pucks are frozen before the game to reduce bouncing during play. Ice hockey and its various precursor games utilized balls until the late 19th century. By the 1870s, 'flat' pucks were made of wood as well as rubber. At first, pucks were square.
