Somehow corn is more durable than a razor blade HOW?

[@joanhoffman3702]

It depends on the acid and what you’re trying to dissolve. Gold won’t dissolve in most acids, but will dissolve in aqua regia, a mix of hydrochloric and nitric acids. Sometimes, seeds have to survive passing through an animal’s GI system to be transported to new areas, hence their tough coats. A chemist could explain why this is, but my chemistry classes were years ago.

With the humans glowing thing, i love telling people about that at work, where I'm an x-ray tech. I have a small light built into the machine that helps me aim it, and if the room lights are on i can't see the small light. "Alright, I'm going to have the big light off so I can aim my camera. I have a little light here that helps me aim it, and kind of like me, it's not terribly bright." I then bring up this fact, plus the being too dim to see, and say, "so by that measure, none of us are very bright..." I get a some good laughs from that

The thing I love the most about science is that we keep making new discoveries and our theories keep changing!

Hiya Mike! I was bitten by a Lone Star Tick and the effect was not just inconvenient, but incredibly painful. Any time I ate beef or pork [except, for no good reason, bacon!?] I would feel intense pain stabbing thro my stomach. It was like hot rebar shoved through my ribs and then sawing back and forth, just horrible. My doctor never found the cause of the pain, but did recommend not having red meat if it was suddenly not tolerable for my body. It took my body 10 years to regain a capacity to have beef, but I am now vegetarian [NOT Vegan, I love cheese and butter, thank you very much] so I don't have to suffer if the effect suddenly returns. And yes, on rare occasions I had a small bit of steak and discovered it was a crap shoot, because the pain just might happen despite how long it has been, and I always forgot about the whole thing before remembering why I was bedridden in pain and having some indescribable TMI restroom moments the next day. Uh, I do not recommend this to anyone! Be careful! Oh and another thing happened with that tick, but it's too disgusting and frightfully gross [it was on my back by my left hip, so's you all know] so I'll spare you details...

[@echognomecal6742]

Oh nooooooooooooooooooooooo! So glad you've gotten much recovered!

[@merrileeheard3889]

I hate rats, but it's probably because I live in a seaport city and the waterfront rats are freaking huge! Now bats I like. Great list Mike and list 25 ❤

Babies skulls are also flexible, they don't properly form until they are at least two. Which is why you must hold a baby properly and put pillows behind them, when they need it.

That's why I love List 25 because I can learn more trivia. Still loving the fact that Mike is back baby. Thanks for the videos List 25 team, and of course Mike.

Kind of makes me wonder, if an astrnaught cant burp in space, can they fart?

[@TheBioramax]

Your writers have started adding teasers which are unnecessary and detract from the presentation. Teasers like this are only needed when you have a voice over or when the host is not engaging. You never saw J.K. Rowling saying after chapter 3 of Deathly Hollows, "if you thought this was suspenseful, wait until chapter 20." Mike is a fun host. He is very engaging. You do not need to add a teaser to get us to finish watching the video. (Though it might get us to turn it off out of sheer frustration with the overuse of teasers).

[@richiegillham42069]

The fact that we can't smell as well in our sleep is scary because you're less likely to smell smoke. EVERY ROOM NEEDS A WORKING SMOKE DETECTOR

[@julianaylor4351]

European Robins ( symbol of Christmas since being used on greetings cards in the 19th century ) have one eye that can see magnetic fields. Ornithologists have proven that with experiments. 😎

[@lizbriar9565]

Number 1 is only partially true. Depends on what stage of sleep one is at. Sense of smell is likely gone during deep sleep but I have woken from a light sleep because of smells.

[@darrencole97]

You mentioned soil having lots of microbes think about human beings and how many microbes there are in our bodies. That is even more insane. We ere full of billions of tiny microbes.

Fake vanilla in the UK is strictly controlled, like all artificial flavours. The UK actually is not as far away from Madagascar, as the US, so most food companies and home kitchens, can afford natural vanilla.

I respectfully beg to differ on smells not waking people up....

[@Isaiah42069]

when you see a dog walking in circles before it poops, its orientating to North South.

[@ratsumatra3003]

I've had dogs all my life and found this statement to be false. Just this morning the husky and GSD were each pointing a different direction from each other during their deposits..... and neither were facing north. Maybe at one time this was true but man has changed much in this world. I've been blessed with some wonderful animals, covering a variety of breeds and North has never been a requirement for poop.

[@spadelump]

I've heard the last fact before but I'm skeptical as any time my dog has "an accident" in my bedroom I wake up straight away!
