    After being rejected by every art gallery in a 200-mile radius, street artist My Dog Sighs lost sight of his dream. Banksy‘s stenciled Rat inspired him to approach things differently. Today, he's a very well known street artist in the UK.

    The blue whale has the largest penis in the animal kingdom. It is commonly cited as having an average penis length of 2.5 metres (8 ft 2 in) to 3 metres (9.8 ft) and a diameter of 30 centimetres (12 in) to 36 centimetres (14 in).

    Michael Jackson had his wine served in Diet Coke cans while flying because he didn't want his children to see him drinking alcohol.

    The Roman Emperor Nero participated in the Olympics in 67 AD. Nero "won" every contest, even one in which he left the race after being thrown off his chariot.

    Snow leopards are great jumpers, able to leap as far as 50 feet. Their long tails are great for balance and as a makeshift blanket to cover sensitive areas from the harsh cold.

    In the interwar years if a member of the constabulary thought a large motorcycle was too loud he would test by putting his truncheon up the exhaust. If it went all the way in the baffles had been removed/tampered with and "you're nicked".
    So motorcyclists and manufacturers started putting fishtail ends on the mufflers.

    Better to think inside the pub, than outside the box?
    I apologize if any offence was caused. unless it was intended.

    The crew of Return of the Jedi mocked Admiral Ackbar's ugly character design. Director Richard Marquand refused to alter it, saying, "I think it's good to tell kids that good people aren't necessarily good looking people & that bad people aren't necessarily ugly people."

    Marie Curie’s tomb in the Panthéon in Paris is lined with an inch of lead to protect the public. Her remains are radioactive to this day.
