“You May Be Living In The Last Year Of Your Life”: 40 Disturbing Facts That You Might Be Better Off Not Knowing

That's cool, and I'm sure there's people who would like this, but I don't think I'd want to see that everyday.

His wife was Japanese, she had cookbooks, so the production designer scanned the recipes, then reversed and mixed up the characters. that's why none of that is actually readable.

It's understandable. She had been playing since she was a little kid, she enjoyed it, she was great at it. If there was chance I'd lose a major part of my life, I'd do this too.

Imagine that! Being a toddler for 40 years!

Honestly, this is just sad.

I would love to donate my body to a body farm after my death. They do so much good work on helping out forensic science. I'd like to contribute to it, even if I can't do the science myself.

i guess my dog is terrified of frightened or injured prey

Dolphins need to come up for air about every 10 minutes, while sloths can hold their breath for 40 minutes. They achieve this by slowing their heart rate.

How does plastic expire?

Your telling me that's NOT an alien?!

Very well could be my last month, week, day, hour, even minute. There doesn't even need to be a reason, people die suddenly all the time.

Oh no. I think I am in a depressive state right now. I just sighed like wouldn't that be nice 😅😩

I really wanna unsee that. Will my love for penguins stay the same?

this actually makes me feel safer, shows that sunscreen can really help you :)

God, and she still had to be strapped into a corset and bustle 🙄🙄🙄🙄

"Of the 56% who admitted sleeping, 29% told Balpa that they had woken up to find the other pilot asleep as well.". Well, that makes my fear of flying so much worse.

i hate the smell mostly just cuz im allergic to grass adn it makes me sneeze

Why are people freaked out by parallels in evolutionary selection.

Awww, Horny Toads are so adorable

He was stung 27 times. Would you get stung that much for $27,000???

Some sources state this number is as low as 4, some go as high as 41. It all depends how many people you interact with per day, in a big city it's likely. If you interact with about 25 people per day for 70 years, you've likely encountered 10 murderers, based on statistics.

They actually held a referendum on this, and, as always, when this is done, people voted against it. They did it anyway eight years later. Referendums don´t have to be binding. Sometimes the government has to govern. I´m looking at you UK.

Great publicity - maybe the arrest was staged and choreographed to make headlines

Is this before, or after you've finished cleaning the toothbrush after use?

And in Ancient Egypt, they were used to treat toothaches

I swear there are some intersections in town where it becomes five years.

Lynn C*x swam from Little Diomede to Big Diomede in 1987. ___ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynne_C*x

What does that even mean?

I'd rather I was eaten than all this meat go to waste anyway.

Not if you don't have any friends!

This is why they swapped to ears only

So what, it's not enough to lock them up, but now we can engage I'm torture? If you want to swat a fly, swat it. Don't pull off its wings. Who the hell wasted their intelligence coming up with something so Draconian? Cure cancer.

Extremely stupid statement.

According to whom? There are many instances of unreported cpr... j/s. It sounds very discouraging that way

This is BS. Always help. Compressions are fine and you don’t have to do mouth to mouth. My degree says so. BP doesn’t fact check?

I don’t care if I fall into that unfortunate 93%, I STILL want someone to at least TRY, ffs!

Most people aren't trained in CPR and do it wrong. Even doing it correctly causes damage most times, like the sternum getting broken. But doing nothing is worse. 911 operators can talk you through what to do if necessary.

Define “works”. The intention is to keep oxygenated blood circulating until the paramedics arrive. In that, it’s highly effective

Better than nothing.

The percentage may be off but this is why defibrillators are important. Also you can guarantee I'll be trying to resuscitate. Even if is 1 percent thats a lot of lives that can be saved. Humans buy lottery tickets all the time and the odds are insane.

Any chance is better than none, keep doing it.

I wonder if this is due to there being too much damage already (what caused the event), being started too late, untrained/poorly trained application or people giving up too soon. Many people see in the movies if it doesn't work in a short time the doctors give up. In the real world you don't stop until medical help arrives.

Because real life is not the movies?

Whether that's true or not, without it I wouldn't be here. CPR kept my blood pumping when my heart stopped for 11 minutes after a cardiac arrest. ALWAYS try.

7% are grateful.

Where as not using CPR is successful 100% of the time in letting people die

It doesn't work very often in the hospital either. Trauma nurse here.

I took a class on CPR and first aide and the statistics are kind of scary.

"Works" in this statistic may only mean "was the difference between life and death". The other 93% would not necessarily have been deaths. It would include, for instance, cases where CPR was used but not actually necessary.
