Ok, I'm half asleep and studing for me exams. I was trying to relax when all this little known facts started to flood my head. Then I thought why not make a topic about little known facts where people can post these things.
One of my fav little known facts is something I like to say when I do badly on a test or paper. Did you Albert Einstein, the man who stated E=MC2, did badly in school? In fact he was more or less kicked of school. He was even asked by his teacher to drop out of school, which he did.
Albert Einstein is one of the most famus highschool dropouts of all time, rofl .

Speeking of milk. Did you know men can give milk too?
It is rear but the phenomenon of male lactation in humans has become more common in recent years due to the use of medications that stimulate a human male's mammary glands. Though human males have nipples, it is not so often understood that they also have mammary glands. Ordinarily the mammary tissue is low in volume and cannot be noticed. Under the appropriate hormonal stimulus, the hormonal stimulus that nature provides to human females when they become pregnant and give birth, the mammary glands of human males can also produce milk. The volume of milk produced is low relative to that of a lactating female.
Odd but true.

Statues of people on horses actually have meaning! -If the horse is rearing, with both front legs in the air, the person died in battle. -If the horse has one hoof on the ground, the person died of wounds relating to battle. -If the horse is completely grounded, the person did not die in relation of any battle.
Interesting, ne?

Good thing I cancelled that trip to Germany...
The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb.
Who came up with that rule?!
