    If the history of the universe was condensed into a day with the Big Bang happening at midnight, Earth was formed a little before 8 PM, the Cambrian Explosion was a little after 11 PM, and the Chicxulub impact was around 11:53 PM.

    Not mind blowing, but interesting enough to post. It's kind of a tweener between this thread and the "Interesting Pics found on the internet" thread.

    something similar that I enjoy to show how crazy time is. Cleopatra, former pharaoh of Egypt, is closer to us in time than she is to the building of the great pyramids of Giza.

    I thought you’re supposed to relax when falling and that’s why cats are more likely to survive falls from greater distances.

    In a car crash, yes. When it’s a high fall into water you don’t want one of your legs splaying off to the side, you want to squeeze them together as tight as you can.

    No. It's the sudden stop at the end that kills you

    I mean, if it's your friends that kill you, shit man you probably should have made better choices in life
