The stomach emits Corrosive acid?! Wow, I knew it does emit something, but didn't know that much. What would it be enough for? BTW, is that acid dangerous for our health?

Benn, I think the acid that we're talking here is the Hydrochloric acid (HCL) where it's one of the main substance in our gastric to digest the food...

Have you all people know that the human naturally has to live about 120 years? Yes, that's amazing, but is really true. The point is that we destroy our body and organs during the life, so they get worn that's why people die earlier.

It's better to live short and as you wish, than live 120 years following all the health rules, which are truly boring.

Haha, in this situation, I will agree with Helen's thought, as I don't want other to take care and worry about me, like I'm kind of crap when I was getting older...

Generally, if we take a look around, we will understand that living your life is harmful!
The air is polluted, the food we eat kills us gradually etc.
That's why I believe we should follow certain rules, but not be fond of them

Our organism can resist a temperature of 44-44.5 degrees celcius, sometimes 45. During a day, human emits so much warmth, that it would be enough to boil 33 liters of water.

Researchers calculated that during our life we consume 2.5 tons of protein, 1.3 tons of fat, 17.5 tons of carbohydrates and 75 tons of water.

Just during 1 minute, about 1.5 liters of blood circulates through your liver. In a day it's roughly 2,000 liters.

Only one out of 2 billion people will live 116 years. The thigh bone is the biggest and most resistant bone in the human's body. It can resist 1.5 tons of pressure.

A grown-up man makes about 23,000 breathes per day. That is about 150,000 breathes per week. Hard work!

18 muscles on your face control your smile. During the life, each of our fingers bends about 25 million times.

An average human scalp has 100,000 pieces of hair.
Babies are born with 300 bones, but by adulthood we have only 206 in our bodies.

Steven, it's because 1/3 of the bones have been joined together, when we're growing and getting older! By the way, the total length of nail growing can be reached up to 300km during his/her lifetime!
