Friday Fun Facts: January 24th



1. If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.

2 .The strongest muscle in proportion to its size in the human body is the tongue.

3. Every time you lick a stamp, you're consuming 1/10 of a calorie.

4. The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet.

5. Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.

6.A person cannot taste food unless it is mixed with saliva. For example, if strong-tasting substance like salt is placed on a dry tongue, the taste buds will not be able to taste it. As soon as a drop of saliva is added and the salt is dissolved, however, a definite taste sensation results. This is true for all foods. Try it!

7. The average person falls asleep in seven minutes.
