- Lionel Messi’s first contract with FC Barcelona was famously signed on a paper napkin when he was just 12 years old.
- Flamingos feed with their heads turned upside-down, using a specialized tongue to filter food from water rapidly.

- The brain predicts self-generated sensations, which is why it's impossible to genuinely tickle oneself.
1. What releases the zombie from the wind has no stinky smell
The lazy intestines produce methane, but instead of releasing it from the buttocks in the usual funny and foul way, methane is absorbed into the blood. So there is absolutely no point in blaming farting (farting) on these slow-moving mammals. For this reason, they can release as much wind as they want without knowing or feeling it.
2. The chances of getting the ball in one stroke into golf are not low
If you're a golf fan, you'll know that putting the ball in one fell swoop is the most exciting thing ever! The chance of obtaining it is estimated at about 1/12,500. Tiger Woods was eight years old when he hit his first goal.

3. The Eiffel Tower gets taller in summer!
The Eiffel Tower, the hallmark of Paris, gains a few centimeters in hot weather, due to a process called "thermal expansion". The heat of the sun makes the minerals used in the tower expand slightly, but in winter it returns to its original height. Long live science!
4. Lionel Messi's first necklace was on a paper napkin!
Messi was only 12 years old when he played for FC Barcelona in a trial game. Carles Rexach, who worked for the team, thought Messi would become a star, and made him sign a contract on a tissue to make sure he would be part of the team. The handkerchief is now framed by football agent Horacio Gaggioli, and the price of this framed napkin should be at least a few pounds.
5. Flamingos (flamingoes) eat only with their heads upside down.
These long pink creatures use their tongue as a sieve to pick up food by turning their heads. The tongue of these birds helps pump food-filled water in and out of their mouths about three times a second, and this technique is called "filtration feeding"!
6. Chickens and ostriches are the closest quarters to the king Tyrannosaurus.
In 2003, scientists used collagen in the remains of ancient dinosaurs to figure it out, as they had long suspected that birds had features close to the dinosaur. The actual evidence of this has finally emerged. Before this discovery, many experts believed that the dinosaurs were giant reptiles, but it turned out that they were mainly huge chickens. This is an idea that makes Jurassic Park a little less scary... Or maybe even more scary?
7. It is impossible to tickle yourself.
You can't tickle yourself because when you move a part of your body, a part of your brain monitors the movement and predicts the sensations it will cause. So we humans can't tickle ourselves because what makes tickling tickling is that it's sudden!
8. The rhino is the national animal of Scotland.
The rhinoceros was a symbol of innocence and purity in Celtic mythology. However, it has also been associated with power and masculinity. The romantic stories of chivalry and dominance associated with rhinos may be why he was chosen as the national animal of Scotland... Or maybe they chose it just for laughter. Either way, we agree!
9. Yawning lasts an average of six seconds.
Humans also yawn an average of 20 times a day, which means you spend a total of 120 seconds or two full minutes yawning each day. Yawning is contagious, so reading this article and thinking about yawning can make you yawn. (I bet for a zillion pounds – or any countless – that you just yawned. Are we right?)
10. You can not lick your elbow.
Well, there are a few people who might be able to lick their elbows, but that's very rare, and you'll need to have short arms. Why not try this, and see if you can do it?
