Happy Fun Facts

Context:
The royal Dutch family fled to Canada during World War II, and Princess Juliana was pregnant at the time with soon-to-be Princess Margriet. If Margriet wasn't born on Dutch soil, she couldn't be considered Dutch royalty, so, the Canadian government literally declared the Ottawa Hospital to extraterritorially be considered Dutch land.

Robots have increased the size of the Great Barrier Reef by more than 50 percent!

Doctors use superhero masks to help kids undergoing radiotherapy, because the other masks look scary.

Human Body Fun Facts
@Yutazenpai

You’re taller in the morning than at night, due to gravity.

The highest blood flow is located in your kidneys, because they’re your filtration system.

The stapedius muscle, located in the middle of your ear, is your weakest muscle.

The longest bone in your body is the femur. It is also the strongest.

The smallest bone is one of the ossicles, which are located in the ear.

One quarter of your bones are located in your feet.

Your ears and nose never stop growing.

If you laid out your blood vessels, they would stretch for over 100,000 miles.

There are actually around 30 blood types- which is why we refer to the easy ABO system.

In one year, a human heart will pump enough blood to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool.

Psychology Facts
@Zerø21ne

Studies have shown that people who enjoy dark humor (like myself) actually tend to be more intelligent, and less agressive. (Reader's Digest has an article, and they're generally pretty trusted.)

Hanging out with positive and happy people can make you happier. The opposite can also happen- Actually, it is said that you generally tend to be a mix of the four people you spend the most time with.

One theory about why yawns are contagious is that it shows empathy.

It takes five positive things to outweigh one negative.

Have you ever seen a baby, or a cute puppy, and wanted to squeeze it? That's normal. It's called cuteness aggression, and it happens when we're overwhelmed with emotions, that our brains try to balance it out by being more aggressive. It's something that I have actually experienced before.

Multitasking is actually impossible. Even when you think you're doing two things at once, your brain actually switches between the two tasks.

We look for human faces, even in inanimate objects.

It's also why babies don't yawn (Also reading the word yawn just made me yawn), because they don't have a developed sense of empathy yet
