Yes folks, you CAN die laughing.




Alex Mitchell, a of 50-year-old builder of King's Lynn, England, literally died laughing while he was watching an episode of The Goodies. After twenty minutes of continuous laughter Mitchell finally collapsed on the sofa and died.

So what was he watching that was so funny it killed him? "The skit that precipitated Mitchell's fatal fit of glee involved a kilted Scotsman's flailing away with his bagpipe at a vicious black pudding intent on attacking him." I guess you had to have been there...

Women blink nearly twice as much as men.


Women blink nearly twice as much as men.

Blinking is a reflex that is started by a sudden noise. Studies show that women react more quickly then men to these sudden noises, and blink both twice as hard and often as men.Another interesting piece of data; lesbians will blink less severely than heterosexual women, and gay men will blink more severely than heterosexual men. Because blinking is a reflex and isn't learned, some argue that the rate of your blinking can determine whether you will grow up to be homo or heterosexual.

Odds are, any memory you think you have before the age of four isn't real.


Odds are, any memory you believe you have before the age of 4 isn't real. They are false memories and have usually either been told to you by someone else, or you made them up without knowing it.

It's called 'Childhood amnesia' and it means, generally, that won't remember anything that happened until you're about 4 years old. Some people can remember things from age 2, but it is rare. There are many theories why, but generally it is assumed this is because your brain hasn't developed enough to be able to form, store, and retrieve memories. In general the earliest memories of females are earlier and more vivid than those of males.
