Oh! I know a good one, in Chernobyl, scientists sent a robot to test for radiation and whatnot. What they found in the blown reactor, in amongst all the melted nuclear waste and radioactive dust, in conditions where a human would have been dead in minutes, they found life. The walls were covered in black mushrooms. The mushrooms it turned out, where actually [i/]feeding[/i] off the radiation. Eating it. It was a whole new feeding process they called 'Radiosynthesis'. Amazing.
can u link these mush rooms please, they sound friggin amazing , wonder what they taste like also

Richard G Drew invented adhesive tape in 1925
The red crstals used in sith lightsabers were synthetic, those used by jedi were natural coming from caves on planets such as Illum adn Dantooine.
In a single 10 hour action in 1916, one vickers machine gun fired 12,000 riunds of ammunition. It required two changes of barrel and three changes of coolent.
Without the revenue generated from space marines, games workshop would go out of business.
Thats all i can think of for now

The Carthaginian Hannibal, during the Punic wars, tried to move his army into northern Italy through the Appalachian Mountains. They used salt to wear down and break any boulders in their path.
I think you mean Alps. The Appalachians are in the Eastern United States.

In a year more americans are injured by toilets than there are shark attacks globally.

The first animals to be sent to space were fruit flies.

One fifth of the population of the earth is chinese.

Lightning travels at 72,000,000mph

Lightning is five times hotter than the surface of the sun.

Crocodiles are colour blind.

It takes light from the sun 8 minutes and 17 seconds to reache the earth.

Pigs can't sweat.

85% of all life on earth is plankton.

Peanuts are an ingrediant in dynamite.

A pound of gold actually weighs less than a pound of feathers. This is because feathers are measured in "avoirdupois" weight which has 16 ounces per pound and gold being a precious metal is measured in "troy" weight which has only 12 ounces per pound.

If the 5th Dimension exists it is 1X10^-32 M across
Also it may in theory seperate us from alternate realities. If it's not fixed however we could end up with an interesting apocalypse. The Large Hadron Collider at Cern is designed to throw Protons at each other at high enough speeds to throw out enough energy to re-create the big bang.
If alternate realities in the 5th dimension can move then the same thing that should be happening in the LHC could happen to every atom of the universe at the same time as two realities collided.

If not then guess we'll just have to use the property of the 5th Dimension that allows us faster than light travel.

Sperm whales are called Sperm whales because of the fluid they contain in the upper part of their head. Upon dissection it looks like a huge mass of sperm. However scientists later found it isn't sperm, but is instead just a thick viscous material the whale needs to maintain bouyancy and stability in the water!

Silly victorian scientists :)

Oh! And Sharks have a constant amount of teeth all through their life. Whenever one falls out another one regrows.

Ah! Giant squids can not come to the surface, their bodies can't handle the lack of pressure so they basically explode when they get to the surface. It's a miracle the ones they found aren't all "poof".

Errrrrm....a non- aquatic related fact....ah nuts, I can't think of one.

What? Under the sea is much more interesting than on top of it :)
