Vegetarians fart more than non-vegetarians. In 2021, Spanish scientists set out to examine the phenomenon that's always been presumed: plant-based diets cause people to fart more. The researchers concluded that people who follow a plant-based diet fart more and have larger stools than people following a standard Western diet (diet low in fruits and vegetables, and high in fat and sodium). The results revealed that those following a plant-based diet farted seven times more per day and had stools twice the size as those following a Western diet on average. Farting is a sign of a healthy diet and healthy colon, said the scientists.

A 60-year old truck driver sued the Tokyo hospital, where he was born after discovering that he was accidentally switched with another newborn in 1953.

He ended up with a poor single mother while the other baby grew up to own a real estate company under his rich biological parents.

The hospital was ordered by court to pay ¥38m (£227,000) for damages.

Egyptian Pharaohs were once required to masturbate into the River Nile to keep its flow cycle stable. The event was known as the Fertility Festival.

The Fertility festival or Min festival was part of ritual at the end of the year where, the pharaoh would masturbate then ejaculate into the river, making sure that his semen flowed with the current.

After the pharaoh, other men would then come over and release their seeds as well.The entire process was believed to have brought more prosperity and blessings to the people.
