oo’s Cold Trivia: Unbelievable Facts that Will Leave You in Awe Everyone loves a good dose of trivia. It’s fascinating, fun, and sparks interesting conversations. But have you ever come across trivia so mind-blowing and strange that it seems almost unreal? Well, BLACKPINK’s Jisoo is here to give you a few of those. Here are some of the coldest trivia Jisoo has shared with her fans:
1. Elephants can communicate through their feet. Yes, you read that right. Elephants not only use their trumpets to make sounds but also communicate through vibrations. They can pick up seismic vibrations using their feet and trunk, which they use to send messages to other elephants.
2. The shortest war in history lasted only 38 minutes. In 1896, the Anglo-Zanzibar War started at 9 a.m. and ended at 9:38 a.m. The war was fought between the British Empire and Zanzibar, which wanted to become an independent sultanate. The British attacked, and the sultan’s forces surrendered almost immediately, making this the shortest war in history.
3. Humans and giraffes have the same number of neck vertebrae. Despite the huge difference in neck length, both humans and giraffes have seven neck vertebrae. However, each vertebra in a giraffe’s neck can be over ten inches long, while a human’s cervical vertebrae are much shorter.
4. A group of flamingos is called a flamboyance. This one is interesting and fun. If you ever come across a group of flamingos, you can proudly say that you’ve seen a flamboyance of flamingos.
5. A flea can jump 200 times its height. If a human could jump these heights, we would be able to jump over skyscrapers easily. Fleas are small insects, but their legs contain strong muscles that can propel them at super speed. It’s said that fleas can jump up to 13 inches high, which is pretty impressive for an insect its size.
6. The longest word in the English language has 189,819 letters. We’ve all heard of the word antidisestablishmentarianism, but did you know that it’s not the longest word in the English language? The longest word is the chemical name of the protein, Titin, which has 189,819 letters. To save us the trouble of pronouncing it, the word is abbreviated to 'Titin.'
7. The first computer mouse was made of wood. Douglas Engelbart created the first computer mouse in the 1960s, and it was made of wood. It had a button on the top and wheels at the bottom, and it was intended to help users navigate computer screens more efficiently. Jisoo’s cold trivia gives us a glimpse into the incredibly weird, fascinating, and unusual facts that make our world a unique place. Whether it’s about animals, war, or technology, these mind-bending facts might seem bizarre at first, but they’re a great conversation starter and will leave you in awe. Who knew that a group of flamingos was called a flamboyance!
