853 Hard To Believe Facts: Better Explained, Counterintuitive and Fun Trivia from the Creator of RaiseYourBrain.com (Trivia and Quizzes) by Nayden Kostov (Author), Andrea Leitenberger (Editor), Jonathon Tabet (Editor)
Amazon US lnk

This book is full of fun and verified facts, presented in an accessible manner that I hope will provide you with hours of entertainment. My objective has been to provide you with a lifetime supply of icebreakers and points of discussion. Amaze your friends and family by telling them that pistachios can combust spontaneously or that the holes in pen caps are there to save people from choking to death!

Following the success of my site RaiseYourBrain, I decided to collect the best trivia gems and present you with a fact compendium suitable for a wide audience. This is the product of years of sifting through history and references books on a myriad of subjects as well as searching the Internet and paying attention to the news. In 2016, I published “1123 Hard to Believe Facts”, which was read by tens of thousands and accumulated hundreds of 5-star reviews on Amazon and GoodReads. As it has remained in the Top 10 of its category for almost two years now, I decided that another instalment was merited, this time with more illustrations and detailed explanations.

      Creating a list of exactly 853 facts would be quite long to display in one response, so here are some ideas for topics and themes to help break down and compile a list of hard-to-believe facts if you want to go ahead with it. Let me know which ones you’d like more of, and I can pull together some key points for each:

      Would you like a specific number from any category, or a deeper dive into any of these themes? It could also help to know if you’re looking for facts related to history, science, nature, or something else specific.

    Is this by Willy P. Ness?

    • Was that in collaboration with Lee King? Personally waiting for the sequel by Sue Ridge.

    • Actually it's by I.P. Freely

  • The email and password works BUT a verification code is sent to an old phone number that I do not have anymore. How do I change to my new phone number? TIA

    Wow, I.P. Freely gets around. All the AI companies are using I.P. Freely to teach their models, but a lot of content producers like movie studios and news outlets are not happy about it.
