Did you know that the TV Show Hawaii Five-O was named in honor of Hawaii's being the 50th state? Although the show's name has always ended with the numeral "0," the soundtrack album, released in the late 1960s, used the letter "O" instead of the numeral zero

Incredibly the continent with highest population is Asia that accounts for 60% of world’s population. It has 4.2 billion inhabitants!

Amazingly, if a hollow Sun was filled up with spherical Earths then around 960,000 would fit inside. The Sun’s surface area is 11,990 times that of the Earth’s!

Were you aware that most white-tailed deer live about 2 to 3 years? Maximum life span in the wild is 20 years but few live past 10 years old.
