Cool Interesting Human Facts!

It takes 7 seconds for food to pass from mouth to stomach. A human hair can hold 3kg. The length of a ***** is 3 times the length of the thumb. The femur is as hard as concrete. A woman's heart beats faster then a man's. Women blink 2x as much as men. We use 300 muscles just to keep our balance when we stand. A woman has read this entire post. A man is still looking at his thumb.

Eh! Life span is generally measured by a finite nr of hearbeats, assuming that you die of "natural causes" ... women live longer on average so they MUST have slower hearbeats

TX.

Edit - yeah, I was looking at my thumb too

The bacteria in your body outnumber your own cells. Fortunately bacteria are much smaller than your own cells!

Does that mean if someone was beheaded and the executioner picked up their head by the hair then their hair would fall out since the head weighs around 10lbs?

The first sentence illustrates why fat people generally have much shorter memories

If one hair does 3kgs then if he used one hair then probably yes.

If they had just had a bite to eat he would need to be fast if it wasn't to make it to their stomach!

LOL, so the fact that Charles 1st would have had over 100,000 long black hairs in his head explains the fact that his noggin didn't just fall to the ground as soon as the executioner picked it up by the hair! In fact, it would have been fine assuming his head weighed less than 300,000 kilos! Ok, perhaps not!
