Did you know that?, Savais-tu que?, Sabías qué?
Are you one of those who love to know strange things like, who was the first using underwear, or who was the youngest mother in the world. Here we have the chance to gather all of this information. If you consider you know something interesting and want to share it, please don’t doubt to do it. It doesn’t matter the subject, could be about technology, science, sex, whatever. This thread is still young but I wait it grows up daily.
I'll start then; Did you know that... the youngest mother in history was Peruvian, Lina Medina at 5 (Antacancha, Peru). Her parents were worried because they thought she had an stomach tumour. They visited lots of shamans in town, these are kinds of wizards called “shamans”, but no one could tell them what her problem was. Finally they took her to Pisco city (Peru), where doctors found out that she was actually pregnant, 8 months. You can see this picture of her and her baby (and Dr. Lozada). http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/9841/medina3si.jpg The Nylon was created by two scientists, one form New York and one from London, both joined the initials of their countries to have a name N.Y. - LON. The feeling of falling...................... Have you ever had the sensation of falling when you’re almost asleep?. This happens when you’re in bed and suddenly feel like you’re slipping and close to fall. This is not weird, and has also a scientific reason. When we sleep, after some minutes, it’s vastly common to feel a sudden electric discharge which interrupts our sleep. We pass from a moment of relax to a moment of tension |

I knew about the little pregnant girl, from before. I believe she called her son "little brother", or something. Creepy.
Lol, I don't have anything to add. I heard somewhere that Hitler's mother was planning an abortion while pregnant with him, but her doctor talked her out of it. |

Ahhh. I have a few, curtesy of my LJ.
Did you know that most people wrongly credit the band Steppenwolf and their Easy Rider anthem "Born To Be Wild" with coining the term "Heavy Metal", due to the line: "I like smoke and lightning heavy metal thunder" in the second stanza. However this is infact false. "Heavy metal thunder" was a description of of the sound pistons made inside a motorcycle engine. The actual person who first used it to describe music was a bloke called Mike Saunders, while working as a music critic for Cream magazine in 1971. Did you know the name for both Slovenia and Slovakia stems from the word "Slovan" (or "Slověne" in the 9th century Old Church Slavonic) which means "Slavic" . So both those countries names literaly mean "land of the slavs". The international word "slavic" meanwhile originates from the old latin word "Sclavus". Interestingly the world "slave" has it's origins in the same root, since many slavics were slaves back in the day. And I don't mean slaves for one's love in a Britney kinda way, mind you. *shivers* |

Another etymological thing, and completely useless information. Did you know that 'Aphrodite', which the ancient greeks did interpret as 'born out of foam', is in reality the royal wife 'Nefertiti' (egypt: nfr-titi, something like 'the beauty has arrived'). In greek it becomes 'afrotiti', then 'Aphrodite'. |

"A false etymology, popular in National Socialist propaganda, derived "Slav" from "slave"[citation needed]. In fact, the reverse is true. The word slave is derived from Middle Latin sclavus, in turn derived from the ethnonym discussed above, because of the large number of Slavs captured during the raids of Turkic nomads and sold to Europe through slave markets along various routes, see, e.g., saqaliba." |

I didn't even state where the word "slav" comes from. I'm not saying "slav" comes from slave but rather the opposite. And also... venetians weren't really slavic. That's a very touchy political issue in slovenia since some minorities claim we're of venetian rather than slavic origins. |

Really? Aren't they confusing with the Venedes like Argos said? (Which are Slavic anyway.) I highly doubt that Slovenes could be of Italic descent, Slovene culture and language are very much Slavic as far as i know. |

They're actually arguing we're of non-slavic descent, yup. But it's not a widely accepted theory. There's just a minority of experts who're actually claiming it, while it's been especially popular with neo-nationalists. Being slavic is not something being looked fondly upon here. People consider it as part of our "dirty Yugoslav past" and want to wash their hands of that kind of herritage as much as possible. I'd almost say being slavic is like something backwards and obsolete in public opinions. It might have something to do with the fact that people easily corelate slavic culture with communism, which is like the prime of all evils in our eyes. |

Did you know that... the “huicholes”, (Mexican indigenous) thought men had to feel the same pain and pleasure their spouses felt when they gave birth. Men’s testicles were tied to their wives’ hands; they pulled them every time they felt contractions. At the end, men and women suffered for the new born child.
Same pain?, worse?, we can’t know,,,, unless... see this pic about it.... Now...Imagine that one morning you wake up speaking with a sexy French accent, or maybe Chinese or Italian. This sounds funny but in the end it’s not that funny for those who suffer it. This syndrome comes after a serious brain lesion. People who suffer this, speak their maternal language but their accent is the as a foreign (no matter which language), and it doesn’t matter whether or not they had listened that accent before.
