I thought it might be a good idea for PHers to share some factoids in this thread.
Did you know that boiling water kills yeast when mixing dough , it won't rise.
Queen's Freddie Mercury 's real name was Farrokh Bulsara born to Persian parents in the island of Zanzibar.
Elton john does not wear wigs anymore , he's had hair transplant surgery.His real name is "Reginald Kenneth Dwight" LOL
The very first bomb dropped by the Allies on Berlin during World War II killed the only elephant in the Berlin Zoo.
A robin's egg is blue, but if you put it in vinegar for thirty days it turns yellow.
According to Aristotle, wind direction determined whether a baby would be a boy or a girl.
Shrimps' hearts are in their heads.
If you pass wind consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.LOL
So, what factoids do you know that you want to share here?

TV Weather girl Helen Willets has a pathological hatred of hot air balloons.
In fact she has been known to run after them for several miles shouting obscenities at the basket occupants.
On one occasion a petrified balloonist actually ditched into the North Sea two miles off Mablethorpe rather than faces a menacing from the mad meteorologist.
