Facts that will completely change our ideas of the world.

1 The most criminal city in the world is the Vatican

Facts that will completely change our ideas of the world

The surprising paradox is caused by the calculation method of qualification: the amount of common crimes and criminal acts that have occurred within one year, is divided by the number of inhabitants of a city. And this small city-state of course has far fewer inhabitants than the Brazilian city of São Paulo, Nigeria's Lagos and even the Bronx area in New York.

For example, in 2006, the population of the Vatican was 492 people, and the number of crimes registered in its territory amounted to 827 cases. As a result, the statistical level of crime was the highest in the world: 1.68 incidents per citizen.

2 . Sloths can hold their breath for 40 minutes by swimming underwater
acts

These mammals, known for their slow way of life, sometimes like to swim. And if on land the lazy one minute can exceed only 2 meters, in the water its speed increases 5 times! And thanks to a slow metabolism, they can hold a record amount of time without air.

3 . The human language does not have "specialized" flavor zones

One can taste the sweet with the tip of his tongue, and the bitterness feels closer to the root: the habitual map of taste perception is recognized as a myth. Different types of taste bulbs are distributed throughout the language. The illusion of "zoning" creates a predominance of recipients of a species in a given area.

4 . Dogs do not see in black and white, they distinguish blue and yellow colors
our

Contrary to popular belief, dogs do not see the world only in black and white. The old myth about dichromatic vision was refuted by Russian scientists. An experiment with the marking of empty feeders and filled with different colors showed that our pets as well as humans distinguish between blue and yellow colors. However, dogs can not see the difference between red and green.

5 . In the world there are at least three Santa Claus

This name has three cities in the United States. They are located in the states of Georgia, Arizona and Indiana. The last one for many years has entered the map of obligatory places for the celebration of Christmas. Here tourists can meet the symbol of the holidays.

Santa Claus in Georgia is a smaller city and has only one park, a chapel and eight streets with characteristic names like Rudolph Street or December Street. Well, the third, the namesake of the state of Arizona, has now become a ghost town, who only remember a few buildings along the road.

6 . The sheep fight after the cut, because they stop recognizing themselves

Any flock of sheep has its own hierarchy, and the ranking is constructed between animals of the same sex and age. The leaders in your community receive the best places near the feeders and during the break, and can control the behavior of the other members of their group.

But all this happens until the haircut, which is similar to a revolution, describes this blog. Along with distinctive features - appearance and smell - status is lost, and through animal fights they try again to find out who is now worthy to lead the flock.

7 . Newton's famous apple did not fall on the scientist's head

The fall of the fruit that finally contributed to the discovery of the law of universal gravitation only occurred in the eyes of Isaac Newton. The direct fall of apples made the English physicist think why the trajectory of the fall was always the same.

This thought was mentioned by the scientist's biographer, William Stukeley, in his book on Newton. Most likely, this text has become the basis of a legend about an apple that fell on the researcher's head.

8 . Changing the wallpaper on the desktop reduces stress levels

The traditional advice to change the situation, if constant stress paralyzes you, now applies to how you see your computer or iPad screen. A new fund can relieve stress and increase productivity. In this sense, the most effective images are of nature, and the least effective are of urban views and geometric abstractions.

9 . Gorillas are able to purr as much as cats

In addition to pets familiar to us, murmur sounds can be heard from lemurs, guinea pigs, bears, foxes, hyenas, rabbits and squirrels. And gorillas can start purring at mealtime.

10 . In total darkness, a person's eye can see a lit candle a distance of 48 km will change.

We can not fully appreciate the power of our own vision because even with a flat landscape, it is limited by the horizon line. The maximum distance at which the experiment will not be affected by the shape of the Earth is only 5 km. In fact, a person can see much better: if the planet were flat, in complete darkness we could see a small flame burning 48 kilometers away from us, according to the scientists' research.
