30 Of The Creepiest Facts People Have Shared In This Viral Thread That Many Wish They Didn't Know Before you die, your last words could be, "I don't feel so good."

I was a paramedic for 15 years and heard dozens of people's final words. The phrase I heard most often, possibly from half to three quarters of them, were some form of "I don't feel so good." I've also heard, "Wait, somethings wrong." "Somethings happening." "I don't feel right." "Wait, somethings wrong." "It's happening." "Oh no, Oh no."

People feel the blood leaving their brain I think. Must be like a rush.

You’re not the only one to get the creeps from scrolling through this post. There’s something about being creeped out that is both chilling and yet impossible to resist. But what exactly is this creepy feeling we all get? It surely can’t be graveyards, clowns, spiders, or horror movies themselves.

Frank McAndrew, a professor of psychology at Knox College in Illinois, has been studying this sensation and made a conclusion after surveying more than 1,300 people that “Creepy is about the uncertainty of threat.”

More specifically, Frank said, “You’re feeling uneasy because you think there might be something to worry about here, but the signals are not clear enough to warrant your doing some sort of desperate, life-saving kind of thing.” Thus, it’s different from having a fear of something or revulsion.

According to Smithsonian Magazine, when you’re creeped out, your brain and your body are telling you that something is not quite right and you’d better pay attention because it might hurt you. We become more alert and ready to strike whenever the threat turns out to be real.

If you plan to donate your body they generally only want you if you are the right size and arent obese... Looking into donating my body to science led to some crazy details. Also your family has to pay for your cremation if you want your body to go "home". Also dont plan on dying far away from where you plan to donate they really dont want to ship you.

Second hand fact, so I’m hoping I’m right. Dying due to being encased in concrete is horrifying. You don’t crush or asphyxiate so much as burn as the concrete sucks all the moisture from your body; also, it lets off heat as it dries. Probably the worst way to go I can think of.

This is true but you would always die from asphyxiation, drowing basically. The drying process starts after about an hour, so there's no way you can stick it out that long...

Electrosurgery (Google "Bovie") is common in more vascularized procedures because the instrument parts tissue and cauterizes in the process. A surgical grasper instrument can be electrified to pinch bleeding vessels; the blood boils at the pinch and the vessel is sealed and cauterized. Eventually the operating room smells like barbeque.

To be fair...pigs scream about nearly everything in their lives. If you have to hold them so they can have a necessary medical procedure done, they scream. If you have to move them into a new enclosure, they scream. It's just what they do when they don't like things. You can pick up a baby piglet and it will scream like you're trying to do it the most awful harm in the world.

And how about trees. It has been claimed that trees emit a high pitch frequency. Some consider it screaming. Are they conscious as a human is, too?
