MOST POISONOUS HERE

There is a difference between poisonous and venomous.Poisonous have poison on their skin and body but venomous inject venom. Poisonous creatures have poisons on their body to protect themselves from predators and it is created on their body by chemicals they excrete from their glands. Actually scientists cannot tell how effective the different poisons are until they test them on humans, so any volunteers??

Whatever the difficulties scientists have figured out the most poisonous creature and that comes out from where you expect very less but this is the world full of surprises.

Guess who might hold the title?
It is not snake,spider,scorpion they all are venomous but secreting poison and becoming the most poisonous creature in the world yet.The most poisonous creature in the world yet is the Golden poison frog(phyllobates treeibilis ) This tiny creature contains milligrams of poisons in their skin that can kill or knock you down unconscious at you touch it. This milligram og poison is enough to kill 20 adult humans. Anything that eats will die apart from only one type of snake but even that runs through harsh conditions of health once it eats this creature. In South America where these frogs comes from the hunters use to smear its poison near the tip of the dart to kill their hunt but one strange things they are not poisonous in captivity and they get their poison from eating another creature but no one knows what creature that is.

WHERE ARE THE MOST HAUNTED HOUSE IN THE WORLD

In US -  Whaley house. Built in 1856 it is home to ghost of Thomas Whaley and two of his children.
In San Diego -  In Australia, it is Monte Cristo.New South Wales, built in 1844 and haunted by old Mrs Crawley, a maid and a baby girl.


 The Worlds most famous haunted house was Borley Rectory built on the site of an old Benedictine monastry in 1863, sightings of ghostly  phenomenon were reported from around it in 1885 other phenomenon such as phantom coach and horses, footsteps, poltergeists activity and wall writing were  experienced  by various inhabitants over there. On a research of this mystery there were some 2,000 reported  incidents took place between 1930 and 1953. And it was mysteriously burned down in 1939 so what stopped the spooky spot now. 

WHY DON'T WE FALL OFF THE EARTH



Friends do you know how fast we are spinning together with earth? It's enough for you to make dizzy on listening. We are spinning through the space with the Earth at the speed of 1,600 km/h. If it suddenly stops or starts spinning fast then we would be thrown out into the space but don't worry Earth wouldn't spin 800 times faster than it does now for it to happen.  

WAIT!!!!                                                                                     Then why don't we  fall off the Earth. Here are some of the  reasons why this does not happen because all of us are held to Earth by the gravity. Well it's the general theory of relativity proposed by Albert Einstein which explains  that any mass creates a disturbance in  space and it generates a field of gravity which is directly proportional to the  mass of the object. So always the smaller object revolves the bigger objects as Moon revolves and Earth revolves the Sun. It also depends on the distance that separates them from the center. 

DID CANNIBALS REALLY EXIST


          
A fact from scientific research stated that human beings once must have been cannibals because most of us  have immunity from such diseases that was not possible without eating human brains.

FEELING PECKISH?? DON'T READ ON. . .
but some people really did eat human flesh.

  • The Fore  tribe of Papua New Guinea used to eat flesh of their dead ones until 1957, when brain disease known as 'kuru' and it was discovered by passed on eating human brains.
  • Aboriginal peoples in Australia used to eat parts of their dead ones in a ritual ceremony which had of believe that the dead ones will live in them.
  • There's evidence of Native American cannibals in Colorado about 850 years ago. Scientists figured it out by the cooking pots, remains of the bones and fossilized human poo.
  • Some disasters have  sometimes leaded to cannibalism: in 1972, the survivors of a plane crash in the Andes were forced to eat the frozen bodies of the dead.
