    Despite the size of a blue whale, they couldn't swallow a human as their esophagus only averages 10cm in diameter.

    Not sure about that; I got swallowed by a few whales in my anything goes, carefree University days. One of them was most certainly feeling blue.

    Caligula's favourite horse had his own house equipped with full staff of servants. His feed had gold flakes mixed into it and Caligula would send formal invitations to important people inviting them to dine at his horse's house with his horse.

    I do believe where are many whales which can swallow a man, but not Blue Whale. They only eat krill and can eat copious amounts with their tiny esophagus

    Giraffes neck ligaments work in a strange way, so that when they relax their head actually rises. This is because they spend almost their entire life standing up making standing upright the naturally relaxed energy saving position. They also only need 5-30 minutes sleep per day and can go longer without water than camels.

    When you catch your foreskin in your zip there is never a good way to pull the zipper.

    Although there have been football competitions in India since at least 1888, the Indians had to wait 108 years for a nationwide league.

    The faces of people you see in dreams are people you've actually seen before in real life, you may not recognise them but subconsciously their face has crossed your path at some point.
