- In the 1960s, astronauts trained for moon voyages by walking on Hawaiian lava fields.
- Lloyd’s of London insured Bruce Springsteen’s voice for 3.5 million English pounds.
- Physician Amynthas of Alexandria, Greece, performed the first known nose job in the Third Century B.C.
- Military toilet paper is printed in a camouflage design, since white could attract enemy fire.
- Elvis Presley always wore a helmet when watching football on TV.
- King Henry VIII’s ladies at court had a ration of one gallon of beer per day.
- It takes the energy from 50 leaves on an apple tree to produce one ripe fruit.
- The only country to host the Summer Olympics but not win a single gold medal was Canada, in 1976.
