What Is The Craziest Coincidence Ever Recorded?
I googled what is the craziest coincidence ever recorded. This one will blow your mind. Two identical twins that were separated at birth grew up without knowing each other existed but somehow ended up living identical lives. Both their respective parents named them James Burke called them Jim for short. Both had a brother named Larry, both had a dog named Toy and they both married women named Linda. When this didn't work out they both divorced and went on to marry women named Betty. Both Jims had a son and they chose the same name, James Allen, the only difference being is that one Allen was spelled with two L's. Bear in mind at this point they'd never even met yet. Both Jims were chain smokers. Both suffered from migraines and both drove a Chevrolet. Jim one works as a deputy sheriff, while Jim two was a security guard. It wasn't until the age of 39 that their paths finally crossed. And obviously the crazy coincidences made worldwide news, shocking millions. To understand how this could even be possible, they took part in a scientific study and found that their medical histories and brainwaves are almost identical.
Once i met two identical person at Sultanahmet Square(Istanbul) The first woman i met at 2013 and she was from Germany, i met with the other woman at 2014 she was from Belgium. They were both around the same age. Both were soo identical that i was quite surprised at that time.
This is a really bad summary. They met because of the study that was conducted specifically on twins separated after birth. At one time it was "normal" to adopt twins out separately, because it was thought to increase the children's chances to find people willing to adopt them. Most people do not want two kids of the same age at once. Scientists took advantage of this practice by finding a number of such pairs of identical twins who were raised separately and find out how much their uprbinging versus their genes affected them, their lives and their behaviours.
In 1975, a 17-year-old boy was killed while riding on his moped. He was killed exactly 1 year after his 17-year-old brother was killed while riding the same moped, in the same intersection, by the same taxi, with the same driver, carrying the same passenger.
Not to this level of craziness. But about 8 years ago we found out my dad had a lovechild that he also did not know about. She had two kids, one named Christoph (My name is Christopher) and one named Philippe, which is my brother's middle name.
What do they mean by "brainwaves are almost identical"? What are the implications of this?
Why Does Every Single House In Bermuda Have A White Roof?
I googled why every single house in Bermuda has a white roof. Here's what I found. Despite being a tropical paradise, Bermuda actually has no real access to fresh water, which normally would come from sources such as rivers and lakes, but the people of Bermuda have come up with an ingenious solution. Turns out the roofs are designed in this odd way to harvest their only source of drinking water: the rain. So those steps slow down the heavy rainfall helping the gutters to collect as much water as possible and the white paint reflects ultraviolet light from the sun which purifies the water. It is then stored in a tank under the house and thanks to this every home in Bermuda is self sufficient. There are no water mains or water rates.
I thought in Belgium it is mandatory to have a water storage tank. Must check regulations!
Load More Replies...Every time I read a story about how water is California's most precious resource I think about this common practice of rain water storage in Europe. I've lived in 3 different californian counties so far, and I'll I've witnessed is that rain pipes openly end on sidewalk, dumping the water in the sewage which directly dumps it in the ocean. Talk about a waste of "precious resource". Meanwhile, they are investing in desalination techniques.... I don't get this mindset.
Been to Bermuda many times as had friends who lived there. Yes you have a wonderful supply of water under your house, but you still wanted to boil the water before drinking it. You'd be surprised what can get into a tank under your house!
Because of global warming, every roof around the world should be white.
My home is on rain catchment with a storage tank, as are all -3000 homes in my district. We also have leach or septic systems, wind turbine and/or solar.
This Old House did a segment on this when they did a project in Bermuda.
What Is The Most Important Living Creature On The Planet?
I googled what is the most important living creature on the planet. And the answer I found without a doubt is bees. And if all of a sudden they disappeared, it would be absolute carnage. For starters, half of the food in the grocery stores would all disappear as their pollination is responsible for up to 70 to 80% of the world’s crops. The hit the world would take without coffee alone is enough to collapse economies. Say goodbye to beef and all of the dairy products that cows produce, like milk and cheese, as the majority of food that cows consume need pollination. And don’t forget the production of cotton is dependent on pollination, so say goodbye to a lot of clothes, baby diapers, bed sheets, and even toilet paper. And the scariest part about all of this is that in 2015, bees were placed on the endangered list for the first time in history. And the bees' population declined by more than 40%.
Worshipping bees is a thing. Not only in Lithuania!
Load More Replies...I often wonder about the claim the food would disappear. yes, bees are very important but they are not the only pollinators. Wasps, butterflies, flies, birds, etc. They all pollinate too. It would cut down drastically, but it wouldn't simply cease all of a sudden.
While this is true, bees are not isolated in suffering from the effects of pesticides, habitat loss, and climate change. Many other insects, including many that are pollinators, are also under pressure. So are other animals which pollinate some crops, such as bats and nectar-eating birds. Then too, species of plants and pollinators have evolved together, and some cannot adapt to the loss of the other.
Load More Replies...I read recently that when people say "bees" they usually mean not specifically honeybees but pollinators in general.
What a lot of people don't realise is that bee endangerment and decline applies to native bee species, NOT to the honeybee beloved and needed by humans. In fact, introduced honeybees are a serious problem for most of the world's native bees and outcompete them easily. Help bees by protecting the NATIVE bee species. Plant native plants, build bee hotels designed for the native species, support efforts to conserve them, and stop buying into the incredibly successful myth that you need to eat honeybee honey to help the bees. There are many honeys out there that are produced from native bees. If you want to eat honey and to help the bees, support native honey production, not honeybee honey.
I know it's probably not much but after purchasing a house I have tried to find every native plant and flower that bees love to have in our yard and around our house. I propagate the ones that the bees seem really attracted to.. and butterflies, grasshoppers, the fat frogs, etc. And no bug spray on the property. We live in Texas so there's tons of bugs but as long a they're not biting me I think we are good :) makes me happy to go out and see bees buzzin around like crazy
During spring over the last few years, as well as the bees feeding on various plants in our garden, swarming all over palm tree pods as well as the flowers on some ground covers, I've also noticed an increase in the number of bees dying on the concrete. By last year, I had finally perfected a technique of letting them crawl onto my finger so I could put them on a cool plant to die, rather than letting them roast on the concrete. THIS YEAR ... not one live bee in the garden, and only one bee. We're in trouble!
I would really want to know the geographical impact of this population decline. It's hard to be believe that the decline is homogenous throughout the world.
I think the new niche left behind would fill in fairly fast if bees declined?
Not before our society collapsed. Evolution takes many years

I googled what are the most dangerous places on earth to visit. Today's destination is the forbidden North Sentinel Island. Unlike most small, remote islands, this one is inhabited by a tribe quite literally untouched by the outside world for hundreds of years. With an estimated 50 to 200 members they are extremely hostile to any visitors from the outside world with a number of recorded events where sailors, fishermen and even missionaries have been attacked and killed just for turning up. The craziest part is because of the isolation of the island for hundreds of years as the world's evolved around them with cars, medicine technology, they remain untouched, and no one can even communicate with them, as nearly nothing is known about their language due to their extremely violent nature towards any outside visitors. This island is one of the most dangerous places on earth.
They've made it very clear that they want to be left alone. Which is very sensible of them. They are right to kill anyone who is stupid enough to try to go there, as isolated people tend to die from lack of immunity to the common viruses the rest of us hardly even notice.
I looked through the posts before posting that very thing myself
Load More Replies...Yeah, with 50 to 200 members isolated for hundreds of years, inbreeding is inevitable.
Load More Replies...If you actually research this you will find out they have no problem with outsiders and hundreds of people have communicated with them. However, they consider their island sacred and no one not born of the tribe is allowed to set foot on it. They will kill any outsider that steps on the island, but if you sit offshore from the island a little ways they will come out to talk to you.
Which Country Produces The Most Serial Killers?
I googled which country produces the most serial killers. The number one is insane. In the number five is Italy, they have produced 97 serial killers. Finally getting mentioned in one of my lists, I see you, comment section. Canada at number four with 106 - that's a staggering 0.29 per 100,000 people. Now number three is an unfortunate regular on all the my lists, South Africa with 117 murderous individuals. The runner up is England with 166 with the most notable being the infamous "Angel maker" - she killed almost 400 babies in the 19th century. I told you number one was insane and I didn't lie because the USA obliterates this list. They have a staggering 3204 known serial killers, which is approximately 19 times more than the second highest. That means almost one in every 100,000 people is a serial killer in the US.
Would be better if this was done as a ratio against the population of the country. Also is the serial killer suspected? convicted? caught? not caught?; are all the countries reporting in the same manner?
Let's do that. UK and ZA both have a population of around 60m. USA around 350m. So about 6x bigger. Controlling for size then we get that the number of killers in UK and ZA would be 702 and 996 respectively, against USA's 3204. In other words, at the same rate, usa is 3x more serial-killer-ey than the nearest competitor, uk.
Load More Replies...Why? It is a list about serial killers. Not killers or professional assassins'.
Load More Replies...Well, at least we're number 1 at something. USA! USA! (intensely smokes cigarette)
How many serial killers there are or were in Brazil that we will never know because of the poor investigations and police? I think that a big part of this high number in USA is that they actually get the criminals.
Exactly. US law enforcement actually LOOKS for these people.
Load More Replies..."Picked up a hitch-hiker. Seemed like a nice guy. After a few miles, he asked me if I wasn't afraid that he might be a serial killer? I told him that the odds of two serial killers being in the same car was extremely unlikely."
It's also fake. He's taken the total number of serial killers that ever existed, against only the currently living population, rather than the total number of Americans that ever existed. A reputable source estimates 25-50 in the whole country, or 1 in every 6-13 million:. Just another reminder that Tiktok is not a trustworthy source of info: https://people.com/crime/miranda-barbour-and-serial-killers-misconceptions/
Load More Replies...For those wondering, a serial killer is defined anyone that has murdered 3 or more people. The US has so many more serial killers because of their high rate of school shootings/mass shootings/assorted violence stemming from their general lack of gun control.
Not quite. It's 3 or more people over a number of years, WITH a period of cooling off of AT LEAST a year. It's the kicker of a cooling off period that defines a serial killer not just the number of people they killed
Load More Replies...If they are better in catching them it's because they have very well trained detectives and investigation departments for that and they have them exactly because they have a lot of serial killers! However I'm not sure if they count only the ones that got caught! I mean there are victims that have the same pattern and it's obvious that one person killed them so maybe these unknown cases count too?
Load More Replies...What Are The Safest Countries For Women?
Today I googled what are the safest countries for women. The scores are based off of eight factors such as street safety, gender gap, partner violence, etc. So in number five we have Switzerland, great street safety and low levels of homicide. Taking number four is Austria, where 100% of women have at least some level of secondary education. Taking third is Ireland with very low levels of legal discrimination and gender inequality. The runner up is Singapore, where a survey concluded 92% of women felt safe when walking alone at night. And the number one safest country in the entire planet is Spain. In 2018 Spain's government had women outnumbering men with 11 out of the 17 cabinet seats.
This is not correct and very biased. Spain my country has a very high rate of domestic violence, rapes, xenophobia and racism, homophobic crimes and other kinds of crimes committed against women. Feeling “safe” does not equal it being safe
I suspect the low level of reporting in some countries hides the true facts.
Load More Replies...This result is from a travel guide that ranks 50 countries according to where it's safest to go as a solo female traveller - not really sure why they factor in education or pay gap in that. Does anyone know why I'm safer in Austria because all the women there have a secondary education? Or why the smaller paygap makes me safer at home in Norway?
It helps to reflect socioeconomic views of women (as a whole) in society there; how valued they are, how respected as a gender, all play a role in the overall safety of a woman in that society.
Load More Replies...These results seem odd to me.... I'm surprised more Scandinavian countries are not in there
German search of best life quality for women: Norway, Sweden, Canada, Finland, Iceland, Denmark, Ireland, Slovenia, Austria, Estland
Finland is one of the top countries of domestic violence. But in other ways I feel we are a lot further in equality then some.

Who Has Served The Longest Prison Sentence In History?
I googled who has served the longest prison sentence in history. Number one is still going. So number five is Joseph Legion who served 67 years and 54 days and was released earlier this year. He was sentenced at 15 years old for murder and was released at age 83. And number four, we have John Phillips who served 68 years 236 days. He was convicted in 1952 for the rape of a five year old girl and was released in March 2021 on parole. Taking third by only nine days more is Paul Geidel Jr., who served 68 years 245 days. He was incarcerated for 1911 age 17 and then released in 1980, at 86. Once released, he passed away in a nursing home seven years later at age 93. In second place, and the only non American on the list, is an Aussie man named Charles Foster. He was sentenced to life after murdering an elderly man and stealing his boots. Charles passed away when he was still incarcerated at the age of 92, making this the longest served prison sentence in the world because number one is still going. In that number one spot is Francis Clifford Smith. He's served currently 72 years and 90 something days, and I know the chart says 71, but it's old. He was sentenced to death for the murder of a night watchman during a robbery at a yacht club. His sentence was changed to life in prison in 1954, only two hours before his scheduled execution.
I think they're just releasing these very old men, when they don't want the burden of caring for them.
Kind of but not exactly. They're released when they are no longer a threat to society or themselves.

I googled what is the strangest known sleep disorder. What I found is insane. Number five is sexsomnia. And it is when individual acts out sexual behaviors during sleep. It could be as minimal as making sexual sounds during sleep or serious as sexual assault all without intention or awareness. Number four is “Sleeping Beauty Syndrome”. This is a rare disorder that forces your body into a reoccurring period of excessive sleep that can last for up to 20 hours a day. In third place is common and well-known sleep paralysis. When we fall asleep, chemicals are released by the brain that paralyzes your muscles so you don’t act out your dreams. Now sleep paralysis disorder is when the individual wakes up but their muscles are still paralyzed by the brain. And just to make things even worse, commonly coupled with sleep paralysis are intense and realistic hallucinations. People with sleep paralysis disorder report not being able to move a muscle while they’re hallucinating that intruders are entering their bedroom and attacking them. Jumping over to second place is sudden arrhythmic death syndrome. This is when you just simply and unexpectedly die in your sleep. Those who suffer from this sleep disorder have been known to scream, moan just before the death occurs, and it is impossible to wake them up. And the number one strangest sleep disorder is called fatal familial insomnia. Now this disorder has no known cures and involves progressively worsening insomnia over a period of months, which leads to hallucinations, delirium, progressive dementia, panic attacks, phobias, lack of appetite, and obviously eventually death. The average survival rate from an on-set of symptoms is only 18 months
I experienced sleep paralysis as a child and it was terrifying. The hallucinations seem VERY real. I'm pretty sure most of the "ghost" stories you hear about someone seeing a shadowy figure in their room at night or hearing whispers or voices is just plain old sleep paralysis.
I used to have it too! I wasn't experiencing so intense hallucinations but the feeling that you cannot move at all but have awareness is indeed terrifying!! I'm glad I no longer have it
Load More Replies...I have a sleep-related eating disorder, which means that I eat in my sleep. It's not an eating disorder in the traditional sense of the word. It's a parasomnia, which means unusual behaviour while you sleep. I've always been a sleepwalker, even from the time I was little, but the sleep-eating only started in the last 10 years. It happens more frequently if I'm really stressed out or anxious about something. Being a nurse during the pandemic hasn't helped.
I have done that at times of stress also. One shopping trip I had bought a 2l carton of frozen yogurt. I took it out of the freezer the next evening to have some and it was empty. I live alone and it wasn't my little dog.
Load More Replies...I actually have sleep paralysis disorder. I frequently experience it about twice a week. Even if you don't hallucinate you still still get the sensation if being watched. And because your body is still stuck in the sleep state you can't breath properly either so you start to hyperventilate from panic. I find that if I only sleep 4-5 hrs I don't get sleep paralysis. I'll usually get an 1-2 hr nap during the day to make up for the lack of sleep.
I had it years ago and it seemed to have gone away now, but the worst was I lay down for a nap on my couch. I woke up, but I couldn't move at all and the breathing thing was happening a bit. Told myself to let myself just go back to sleep. I did. The next time I woke up but couldn't move I knew I was awake because I heard Jeopardy on the TV. Ok. Back to sleep and maybe the next time I wake up I'll be able to move. It turned into a 4 hour "nap" before I finally woke up and could move. I was under unbelievable stress at the time.
Load More Replies...I have never heard anyone mention having my strange 'sleep' disorder. It actually happens when I am awake. I can start dreaming whilst also being awake at the same time. Sometimes it is only the strangeness of the dreams which tell me I am dreaming: Once when I was hanging washing out on the line in my back garden the gate opened and 3ft tall three dimensional cartoon cat (think Tom & Jerry style) wearing a top hat and tails came marching down my garden path! The shock and horror of this was enough to dispell the 'dream' but I have had many instances where I have dreamed really ordinary things and did not know at the time that I was dreamig. I only found out because other people told me "No, that did not happen".
I’ve had sleep paralysis for years. At best I will see people in the room, on the other end I have seen myself covered in bugs and unable to move, aliens in the room and once after Schindler’s List, Holocaust survivors
I have sleep paralysis, and yes. It can be scary as hell. But most of the time it just makes me giggle. How the hell can I hear men talking about murdering me at the front door.... while I am in my bed?!
What Is The Most Dangerous Place On Earth To Visit?
I googled what is the most dangerous place on earth to visit. Today's destination is the infamous Snake island. This terrifying island just off the coast of Brazil has the highest concentration of venomous snakes in the entire world. It is so dangerous that it's actually prohibited to visit and no one lives there. The only building on the island is an abandoned lighthouse that has no keepers and according to the locals, the last lighthouse keeper and his entire family passed away when a bunch of snakes slithered into his home through the windows at night. So the question is, who's keen?
It's an automatic system since decades, the navy does the maintance
Load More Replies...People are banned from visiting so it’s actually quite safe for them.
Snakes don't scare me but obviously I wouldn't want to be around the venomous ones. However, if there's a "Spider Island," I don't want to know.
OK, now this is just pure, unmitigated bullshit. First, exactly how does anybody know that "a bunch of snakes slithered into his home at night?". Who saw the snakes if the entire family died? Second - only humans wander around at night in mobs, looking to kill people in their sleep. Snakes bite to protect themselves and to kill their prey. They don't wander the jungle, looking for people to bite and kill. I'm sorry, but only a person with the intelligence of a brain-damaged grasshopper could actually believe the piece of rancid, week-old bovine excrement.
I hate snakes and can’t even look at a picture of one, but there is no reason to kill a whole island of them. People know to stay away and that’s what they should do. Humans are not the only important living things in this world.

I googled what are the most dangerous countries for women. Here's what I found out. The following countries are according to the women's danger index, which gets its rating off of several factors - street safety for women, homicide for women, sexual violence, partner violence, just to name a few. So at number five we have Iran which scored the worst in the gender gap. Number four is Mexico which ranked terribly for street safety, homicide and sexual violence. Third most dangerous is Russia with its worst-scoring factor being homicide. The runner up at number two is Brazil, which launched an alarming statistic in 2019, having an average of four women killed a day. The number one leading the pack by a large margin is South Africa. They scored terribly on every single dimension apart from legal discrimination.

The violence against women and children is terrifying, particularly because of the level of brutality involved. Just read a few of the South African newspapers and you will be shocked to discover how prevalent and shocking the violence is. Sadly not only women and children are affected by this, men too suffer, however the violence against women and children is frighteningly disproportionate and no women, regardless of race, creed, culture or social status is safe.
After the Taliban taking over, I'm pretty sure Afghanistan is now at the top of that list.
Pakistan is also awful. Except if you're a white woman coming here as a tourist apparently. Plus points if you're rich.
Bangladesh is most unsafe country among all the countries I have visited, even
Even India is much more safer then Bangladesh. In Bangladesh if people saw that a woman is driving, other drivers try to disturb just for fun. I am not gonna talk about the freedom of wearing non traditional clothing and security at night, that is just nightmare. I am sure no research has been done on it properly or the site that ranks the countries doesn't have the correct data. Otherwise Bangladesh would ranked first as most unsafe country for woman and child

I googled what is the happiest and saddest country in the world. The following is according to the World Happiness Report where results are determined by a survey conducted in 149 countries so in the number five is the Netherlands and it might just be the weed but they scored a happiness average of 7.46. For number four is Iceland scoring a solid 7.554. And in third place is the country that hasn't participated in a foreign war since 1815. And that is Switzerland. The runner up is Denmark, they scored 7.62. They're also commonly labeled the least corrupt country in the world and are famous for their liberal policies. And the happiest country in the entire world also happens to be the world's biggest coffee drinkers, and that is Finland. They scored a whopping 7.842 and are clearly loving life.
I don't wanna to be that person, but less than a quarter of the Dutch has ever used cannabis, and despite what everyone thinks, weed is illegal. It's tolerated to have less than 5 grams on you, but you will get arrested if you possess more, grow plants or deal drugs. We're primarily happy because there's lots of well organized things in the Netherlands and we have plenty of opportunity in life here.
You can grow 3 (or was it 5?) plants for personal use - but yeah. It's tolerated only. I think we are happy because it's just not bad to be here. Not so much crime, generally speaking its just well organized here. And we bike a lot. Outside exercise makes people happy too.

What Are The Most Liked Posts On Each Social Media Platform?
I googled what are the most liked posts on each social media platform. Starting with Twitter, the most liked tweet to date with a whopping 7.3 million likes is the tragic announcement that Chadwick Boseman had passed away, which was posted on the 28th of August 2020. Moving over to Instagram, the most liked post with a whopping 55.5 million is of an egg. The person woke up in the morning and wanted to set a world record and 55 million people, including myself, helped out. Now the most liked post on Facebook was bloody hard to find. But it belongs to a man named Nick Vujicic who was born limbless, and his post with his wife and child has over 15 million likes. People over on Reddit have always been a niche bunch and this proves it, as the most upvoted thing on Reddit is a picture of Rick Astley, which, I'll be honest, I didn't even know who he was, with a total of 438,000 upvotes. Heading over to YouTube and we all probably know this - it is Despacito with 45.2 million likes and 6.6 billion views and counting, but since it was obvious the most liked non-music video on YouTube is of the bloody egg again, it was posted by Mr. Beast and has 17.9 million likes. And if you're watching this on TikTok, I think you already know what the answer is going to be. It is, yes, Bella Poarch with a huge 50 million likes on her lip synching video.

What Is The Safest City In The World In 2021?
I googled what is the safest city in the world in 2021. And as always, here's what I found now The following are according to the Economist Intelligence Unit, and are ranked off of five securities, health, infrastructure, personal, environmental and digital security. So coming in at number five is Tokyo, Japan, they scored the best in the world for health, security. Just scraping fourth is Sydney, Australia. They scored the best in the world for digital security. At number three is Singapore. Their infrastructure scored the second highest globally behind only Hong Kong. The runner up for safest city is Toronto, Canada. Their best scoring factor was environmental security. And the winner of the safest city in 2021 is Copenhagen, Denmark. They scored in the top five in most of the categories but scored the highest globally for their personal security.
Hong kong is safe from regular people but not from the police.

I would never walk around by myself at night here (I'm a woman) but I felt way more safe being out by myself at night or going to the convenience store, etc in Tokyo. Not saying its 100% safe but I barely saw predatory behavior there, (there was a chatty Japanese guy in a mcdonalds once, thats about it) whereas any friday night in Sydney I was challenged/talked to by drunk dudes that made me feel unsafe.
Copenhagen isn't the safest city in Denmark, so I'm assuming they're only measuring cities over a certain size
Usually in these surveys they only check the capitals.... i don't remember seeing smaller cities
Load More Replies...Quite surprised hk makes this list... I guess safety considerations didn't include safe from the government...
Of the many things I love about Singapore is how safe it is for women!
Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen! I loved that movie Hans Christian Andersen as a kid. I watched it a few years ago and as an adult-wow!😳
Who Has Been Given The Most Life Sentences In History?
I googled who was been given the most life sentences in history. Just so you know a life sentence is only given for the worst crimes and to be given multiple life sentences means that you really did something horrific. So when number five is the Green River killer, Gary Ridgway, who confessed to having murdered 71 women. And in 2003 was given 49 life sentences plus 480 years. Number four on the list is Brenton Tarrant. He is the guy responsible for the Christ Church mosque shootings in 2019. He killed 50 people and injured over 40 and last year he was given 52 life sentences plus 480 years without parole. Taking third is Abdullah Barghouti. He was given 67 life sentences plus 5200 years without parole. He is responsible for the death of 66 Israelis and was chief bomb maker of Hamas' Izz al-Qassam brigades. The sentence he is held in solitary confinement and is denied all visits. The runner up on the list is Michael J. Devlin and get ready he was convicted of multiple counts of child kidnapping, armed criminal action, forcible sodomy, child pornography, transportation of minors across state lines to engage in sexual activity, attempted murder, and attempted for sodomy. He was given 74 life sentences plus 2020 years in prison. And the number one most life sentences given to a person goes to a man named Terry Nichols in 1995. He was convicted of 161 counts of first degree murder, first degree arson, terrorism, and for his part in the Oklahoma City bombing. He was given one life sentence for each victim killed which brings his total up to 161 life sentences plus 9300 years without parole.
This is just dumb... What difference does it make if you have to stay in prison 100 or 9000 years?
From what I've read, they give multiple life sentences so if one gets overturned, the others are still there to keep them in.
Load More Replies...I am glad to hear about such long sentences. Nowadays most people get ridiculous sentences when they deserve a much worse punishment. Do you stole a tv or a wallet? Fine, I don’t care. You rape a child or kidnap a person in your basement? You should never see the light of day again. This week we had in Spain the resolution of a case. Many years ago 5 grown men group raped a 17yo girl in the mouth ass and vagina while recording it. The longest sentence was about 9y which is ridiculous, she will be scared for life. But it gets worse, they just got convicted for drugging, raping and recording a second girl. The longest sentence was 3 years (because of how they did it I guess that it doesn’t count as rape). Half of the sentence was for recording the girl. Those monsters got 1y each of prison time for raping a woman! And it’s at least the second time that they do it. F**k it. They should never be released again.
What's the point of receiving 2 life sentences- does it mean you have to stay as a ghost for the amount of years you were alive, three for another many years you were alive, and so on?
it many countries a life sentence is not actually a life sentence, e.g. might be 25 years.
Load More Replies...well... in civilized countries people are sentenced to 1 lefe sentence without parole. Because it's not a cat - it has only 1 life. Person without visits are most likely gone crazy and feral at this point
The Sentence listed for the Christchurch killer is incorrect. He was sentenced to life without parole.
What Would Happen If You Gave A Homeless Man $100k?
I googled what would happen if you gave a homeless man $100k. Well, I actually found the exact answer to this question because a documentary was recorded in 2005 when they gave a homeless man $100k as a social experiment. The only conditions were that they could record him and document his everyday life after he had been given the money. Obviously, he accepted. But instead of getting his life back on track like the producers had hoped, he spends loads of time in a local bar, he purchased a $35,000 Dodge Ram and another truck for one of his recently acquired girlfriends. In the documentary, he goes to see a financial planner, but then firmly announces to him that he has no intention of getting a job and does not wish to plan ahead as he’s only concerned with today. Within a couple of months not only was he dead broke and homeless again, but he was also in debt. The documentary concluded by him saying that he was happy and relieved to be back on the streets.
I think this one's a bit of a stretch coz it is only based on ONE person. There are millions of homeless people all over the world and I am pretty sure majority of them wouldn't be as irresponsible. In saying that the better option would be is to use that $100,000 to pay for all the things to get back on their feet instead of just handing them the money.
100% agree. I work with homeless folks. Some would get an apartment and maybe go to community college or trade school. Others would blow it on drugs and alcohol. They're individuals - they wouldn't all do the same thing.
Load More Replies...Experiment in the Netherlands (it was for a tv show) where homeless peoples would get €10.000 and a phone with numbers of people who could help them get a house, psychological support, financial advice, rehab, stuff like that. It was in fact incredibly successful. Most have been able to turn their lives around. Have a house and job now.
People are homeless for different reasons. Some people prefer being homeless, some are there because of life events, some because of system breakdowns.
I agree! But there could be more shelters and temp housing for those that want to be homeless, and they prefer it because they feel safer, and they feel no one can take advantage of them. They get their checks once a month and go from there. But other countries provide housing for the homeless, and it works! Other than the addicts and the ones that want to be homeless, are those that really need help! Why our country can't lift them up is dishonorable. The rich say, we shouldn't help them, they want to be homeless. I would love to see them suddenly become homeless for three months, and no help. Everywhere they turn, no help. Let them see the realities of what homeless really means.
Load More Replies...I think the issue is receiving all the money at once. A shocking 70% of US lottery winners go broke in a few years. But there are a lot of programs that provide housing, food, and a living stipend that are highly successful in getting people off the streets long term.
$100,000 won’t fix anyone’s situation unless they’re already doing okay.
Wish someone would conduct an experiment on me where they give me $100,000 to see what happens. 🤣
Wow. But maybe the conditions for receiving the 100k would be, allowed producers to document his/ her life, no drugs or alcohol, it had to go to i proving their life, rent an apartment, receive counseling to help them cope, and a financial planner to help them build wealth for the future. Job training if needed. One thing is interesting to me was that they didn't pick a woman or a married couple. That might be a different outcome. Also, they had to take classes to learn how to budget their money and bill paying. It is a lot of conditions, but not everyone wants to be on the street. There are more people one pay check away from being on the streets. Many with kids! Why not pick a family, give them 200k, and literally set them up to succeed, and teach them to do it themselves.
Which Is The Happiest And Saddest Country In The World?
I googled which is the happiest and saddest country in the world. Today we've got to see who occupies the bottom spaces of that extensive 149 country list. So in at 145 on the list is a country that I actually spent a lot of time in growing up and that is Lesotho. They scored an extremely low 3.512. At 146 is Botswana which is surprising as they are labeled Africa's miracle thanks to the huge economic growth in the last couple of decades, they scored a 3.467. Taking the 147 spot is Rwanda where almost 40% of people live below the poverty line. Second to last on the list is yet another African country Zimbabwe most popular for some of the most extreme and devastating hyperinflation the world has ever witnessed. They scored 3.145. And the most unhappy country in the world right now by a large margin is Afghanistan. They scored a shocking 2.523 and this was before the Taliban takeover and the US and UK military evacuation.
My grandparents lived in Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia) for a few years, and I remember my grandpa saying that they would always order and pay for their post golf game drinks at the start of the game, because by the end of the game the prices would have already gone up due to hyperinflation.
What Are Some Of The Best Study Hacks Backed By Research?
I googled what are some of the best study hacks backed by research. So tip number one: a study at Cardiff uni found that chewing gum can improve your ability to concentrate for longer periods of time. People who chewed gum performed better and more accurately on longer tasks than those who didn’t. Tip number two: change your fonts. Because research has shown that a ‘harder to read’ font can actually help retain the information more easily. Scientists think that this is because it actually gets us to think about the information as opposed to just reading it. Tip number three: ditch the reading altogether. Studies have shown that the majority of students prefer to listen to information as opposed to read it.
Tip number three probably varies greatly between people depending on how your brain works. I've found to my greatest fascination that my daughter and I are opposites in this regard. She retains info better when she hears it, which is why she never studies for tests but still does really well because she hears everything in class and her brain absorbs and retains it. On the other hand, my brain apparently doesn't absorb or process something I hear so well. For example if my daughter is doing homework and she asks me for help, she'll read a question out loud to me and my brain is just blank. Its literally like I hear the words but I have no idea what they mean. I need to see the question on paper for my brain to process it.
I'm a mix of the two but I lean on needing to read it.
Load More Replies...No, no, no, no, the majority of people are VISUAL learners 65%, compared to auditory learners at 30%., but obv you can be a mix and learn different ways at the same time. Also who tf recommends students ditch reading?!
Huh, so gum is THE BEST STUDY HACK. Looking at you, Schools That Have Banned Gum
Whenever I need to proofread my work I change the font. The switch-up seems to reduce the likelihood of me reading my own work and glossing over an error.
What Are The Most Dangerous States In The US For Women?
I googled what are the most dangerous states in the US for women. Based off the statistics of the FBI and the CDC and ranks of the five factors such as rape, stalking, unwanted sexual contact, etc. So in number five we have Arkansas with the most reported rape cases out of all top five states. Number four is New Mexico with the worst factor being intimate partner violence. Number three is Maine scoring very high in reported sexual violence. Number two is Oregon scoring the worst in America for reported sexual violence. And the number one most dangerous state in the US for women is Alaska. A staggering 59% of adult women in Alaska have experienced intimate partner violence, sexual violence or both.
one in every five women have been raped or have had rape attempted on them in the US.
54+ women and teen females disappeared in South Dakota in ONE MONTH. And this state didn't have the most disappearances of girls and women
Maine currently ranks highly among the safest states for women (and for good reason).
Since different states have different definitions of sexual assault, it is difficult to compare, Moreover, the more misogynistic a state is, the less likely women are to report sexual assaults which creates the false impression that these states and cities are safer than they actually are.
I thought he was still in New York state? (Not NYC.)

I googled what is rated the number one scariest movie ever made. So actually I found a scientific study that also answers this question where subjects were strapped to a heart rate monitor, and these are the top five that got their heart beating the fastest. Number five is "Paranormal activity" with the average heart rate of 82 beats per minute. Number four is "Hereditary" with 83 beats per minute. The number three is "the Conjuring" with 84. The runner up the scariest movie is "Insidious" with the average of 85 beats per minute. And the number one scariest movie according to science is "Sinister" with an average of 86 beats per minute. And as a bonus, the winner of the biggest jumpscare was "Insidious" and it got people's heart rate up to 133 beats per minute.
Oh God the ring has traumatized me really! And i only saw the American version which is a lot lighter than the Japanese as I've heard! But i was barely 17 years old when i saw it
Load More Replies...precisely. I think they didn't hear about "the serbian film." nooooo thank you.
Load More Replies...This isn't horror. Watch asian horror movies, even with just subtitles they've traumatized me!
Really? I'm a horror junkie, and the first thing I thought of was Sinister. Now, when I hear "scary" I don't think of "disturbing." There's a lot more disturbing horror/gore movies that'd get your heart up faster than Sinister, but for different reasons. What would you have said?
Load More Replies...I have a hard time being scared by ghost (don't believe in them) and slasher films. Psychological terror is what gets me. IMO, films are scarier when it's something that could really happen, not some guy who's been killed 5 times coming back to kill again or some murderous, possessed doll.
I haven't seen any of these; I break out in hives watching Jurassic Park.
Which Month Produces The Sexiest People?
Today I googled which month produces the sexiest people. So a scientific research group called “From Mars” has revealed the months of the year which produced the sexiest people and its rankings are based on 500 of the world’s sexiest celebrities. To start with the ones that produce the least amount of sexy people. In seventh place is October. In eighth place is November. Ninth is January. Tenth is May. Eleventh is July and the last place is June. And now for the winners. In number six is March. Fifth is September. Fourth is December. Third and my birth month is February. Second August. And the winner actually by a large margin is April. So the question is, is this list correct?
*contemplates in June* should I be offended or embrace my fate??
Load More Replies...As an April born, extremely unsexy person, I call BS. Not just that, this is pretty subjective isn't it? What one person finds sexy another may find nauseating.
What bullshit Based on celebrities only? Because only celebrities are sexy people apparently. And I'd love to actually know which celebrities. I probably wouldn't find them sexy at all since y'know, different people are attracted to different things. Edit: though come ot think of it Although I am December and not sexy in my own opinion, my Birthday is the same as ITM's Maria Brink who is certainly sexy imo so... but still, coincidence. >.>
It’s not like they can canvas everyone in the world...
Load More Replies...Born in April - not sexy. Don't wanna be sexy. Would like it if no one was sexy near me.
Folks, please take some time to educate yourselves about what constitutes a reliable source. Blind faith in the top Google results is absolutely foolish.
Blind faith in anything is bad, even things we think we know. (Like eggs causing cholesterol). Always look stuff up.
Load More Replies...I question the crime data. In particular, these statistics come from "reported" crimes. A huge number of assaults on women, theft and violence go unreported. For the HUGE population in California and New York, I cannot believe any of the smaller states have more murders and assaults. It is hard to document, but numbers can be unsubstantiated and misleading.
