1. O.J. Simpson almost played the Terminator, but James Cameron thought his persona was "too pleasant" to portray such a dark

2. The sound of the velociraptors communicating with each other in Jurassic Park is actually the sound of tortoises mating..

3. If you eat a polar bear liver, you will die. Humans can’t handle that much vitamin A.

4. The critically endangered Kakapo bird has a strong, pleasant, musty odour which allows predators to easily locate it. Hence, it is critically endangered. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kakapo

5. The male giraffe will continuously headbutt the female in the bladder until she urinates. The male then tastes the pee and that helps it determine whether the female is ovulating. If she is, it’s business time.

6. Abalones (a snail) have 5 assholes.

7. Dead people can get goosebumps.

8. A full head of human hair is strong enough to support 12tons.

10. The national anthem of Greece has 158 verses…

11. Dragonflies have shovel shaped joysticks so they can scoop out their rival’s sperm.

12. Honey does not spoil. You could feasibly eat 3000 year old honey.

13. If you were to remove all of the empty space from the atoms that make up every human on earth, the entire world population could fit into an apple

14. Duck vaginas have developed “dead ends” over time to protect them from being raped by other ducks.

15. The average blue whale produces over 400 gallons of sperm when it ejaculates, but only 10% of that actually makes it into his mate. Happy Swimming!!! :-)

16. That completely blind people don’t see blackness, they see nothing.

17. One species of jellyfish, Turritopsis nutricula, are immortal.

18. A blue whale’s penis is 11 feet long.

19. Cats sleep for 70% of their lives.

20. The brain named itself.

21. Astronauts are not allowed to eat beans before they go into space because passing wind damages their spacesuits.Lol!

22. A Mexican town had a storm where frogs fell from the sky, in 1997.

23. The stickers that supermarkets use on fruit is completely edible. Even the glue is food grade.

And that will be all for now.

Have a great day ahead folks!.

well, i suppose that since they've never seen light before, nor any other colour for that matter, then they cannot identify blackness as a colour. so, technically they see nothing.

this assumption would hold true for only those born blind.

Well your assumption is actually wrong.. The truth is, dey indeed see NOTHING. Not blackness, in fact some blind ppl can perceive some form of light but they don't have what we call functional vision. Just imagine a situation/condition wea everything is heavily blurred no matter how close and u will understand
