Have you ever had that moment when you are in the middle of a conversation and suddenly the room becomes quiet and nobody knows how to move the discussion forward? Of course you do. Haven’t we all? It’s for this reason that I decided to write this book.
What better way to break that silence than to throw out some of these facts:

• Wolves have a serious appetite! They can eat up to twenty pounds of meat in one sitting!

• The first high heeled shoes were worn by Egyptian butchers to help them walk above the bloodied bodies of animal carcasses.

• The vintage date on a bottle of wine indicates the year the grapes were harvested, not the year of bottling

• Your mouth produces about one liter of saliva each day.

• Greece has more archaeological museums than any other country in the world.

    Myth: Polar bears are “left pawed”

    There is no evidence to support the notion that all great white bears are left pawed. Scientists observing the animals haven't noticed a preference. In fact, polar bears seem to use their right and left paws equally.

    If the number of overseas American equals the population of non-Americans living in America then you're probably right.

  Simon Cowell worked as a runner on the Kubrick film The Shining (apparently his job was to shine the axe properly!)

  "Worth" it for this fact alone, except:

  ‘[The rumours] about him “polishing Jack’s axe” originated from an interview I did with a US radio station. It was a joke which they took for serious. - Tony Cowell

    Whole point of the book is to present 1000 facts and many of them don't check out. So book isn't even worth it being free. I can easily make up "facts" are bogus too.

    • When you cut an apple, clouds form on Jupiter due to the butterfly effect.
    • The first person to eat a hotdog was John McMaron in 1818.
    • Marie Curie got her respect from male scientists by challenging them to duels while swearing like a sailor.
    • Sea urchins taste like chicken.
