Animals
False-Dogs and humans carry about the same number of mouth bacteria — roughly 600 types versus 615. The germs are different, not fewer, and dogs actually have worse dental health.
Half True- Cats don’t always land on their legs. Sometimes they might get injured from falling in the wrong position.
False — goldfish can remember things for months, not seconds.
False — Bulls are colorblind to red; it is the motion.
Health
False-The five second rule is fake. The amount of bacteria on a food depends on type of surface, contamination of surface, and how wet the food is.
False- Cracking your knuckles does not give you Arthritis.
Half-False— swallowed gum passes through your system in a few days, just like everything else you eat.
False- An apple a day does not reduce doctor visits.
False - Our brain is used to it's fullest.
Food
True-Spinach is packed with iron implies it's a good iron source, and it isn't — the oxalic acid locks most of it up.
False-Brown sugar is white sugar with molasses added back — same sucrose, and the trace minerals are far too small to matter.
False-Twinkies do not last forever. They stay good far longer than most baked goods, but nowhere near forever.
False- Fortune cookies were introduced in California, by Japanese immigrants, in the 1900’s.
False— carrots support healthy eyesight, but they won't give you super night vision. The myth actually comes from WWII propaganda.
True-eating it together will cause infections and stomach problems.
Creatures
Unable to tell— decades of searching, including modern DNA testing, have found no evidence of a monster in Loch Ness. The most famous "proof" — the 1934 photo — was later confessed to be a hoax.
Unable to tell - There is no verified physical evidence but there is a picture.
History
False-Napoleon was about 5'6" to 5'7", average or slightly above for his time — the myth comes from a French measurement misread as English and from British wartime cartoons.
False — Vikings never wore horned helmets. The image comes from a 19th-century opera costume, not real Viking history.
False— Einstein excelled at math. The myth likely comes from a failed entrance exam (due to other subjects) and confusion over old grading scales.
Space
False-The Sun is white — it emits all visible colors at once, and our atmosphere scatters the blue away, which is what makes it look yellow from the ground.
True — Earth is round, but not a perfect sphere; it's an oblate spheroid, slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator due to its spin.
False — astronauts have confirmed the Great Wall isn't visible to the naked eye from orbit. It's too narrow and blends into the landscape.
False — there's plenty of gravity in space. Astronauts float because they're falling, not because gravity is gone.
Science
Half-True- Hot water can freeze faster than cold under some conditions, but not always, and nobody has explained why.
False- A penny is too light and flat to kill somebody, by falling of a building.
Half-True — complex snowflakes are extremely unlikely to match exactly, but simple ones can look alike
False — lightning strikes the same spots again and again, especially tall or pointy structures.
