50 Spooky Facts About Our World That Are Hard To Digest Pitești Experiment in Romania overseen by the Soviet Union. Probably the worst thing that humans have ever done to other humans. Makes Unit 731 look like daycare. Communist Russia was probably the most evil human organization to ever exist.

It was basically an experiment to prove souls dont exist. That any human, no matter how resilient, can be broken or "demasked" into an animal like slave. and they prove this by killing the human spirit with 24/7 torture, degradation, brainwashing and humiliation. besides the obvious brutal violence stuff like eating your own s**t, vomit, and forced to desecrate every sacred belief you ever held until you totally broke. and they did this to the most resilient anti communist student activists. and they all broke. then they forced them to be the torturers for their fellow comrades. with the threat that if any of the tortured admitted that they were the guard that shown them a shred of mercy or leniency, they would be sent back to the beginning of the program to experience it all again which most did several times. if these prisoners were given even the slightest chance they instantly tried to commit suicide. some even chewed through their wrists to get to their veins. which the communists solved for by knocking out all of their teeth

One of the biggest mistakes the western world made was not make the crimes of the Soviet Union more known. Everyone should know this happened, that yes there was an organization of people much worse than even the Nazis.

The "Housing Crisis" is 100% manufactured scarcity. There are enough homes to house everyone in the USA but they are held vacant to drive up the rent prices. Unoccupied homes require little maintenance so it makes financial sense to keep them vacant rather than risk lowering the renters market.

50 Spooky Facts About Our World That Are Hard To Digest Ascaris worms are a type of large, parasitic roundworm that make their home in the human digestive tract. They are endemic in many parts of the world. I used to work at a hospital where we took a lot of patients from very poor and remote places, especially Central America, where roundworm infection is very common. When you put those patients under for surgery, the anesthesia causes their blood to become slightly alkaline, which the worms *hate*. So after a few minutes they will start coming out of *every orifice in the body*. Nose, mouth, r****m. And I'm talking full-sized worms that look just like earthworms. It is no cap one of the grossest things you can imagine.

You give those patients a d**g called Bendazole, they poop dead worms for three days, and then they're fine.

When I had my first cancer surgery they had to open me up from my sternum to my groin, which I have a hellacious keloid scar. I had to wear a really strange compression brace that wrapped around my sternum and abdomen for 8 weeks while my body healed. The only time I could take it off was when I was showering, which was a whole other ball of fun trying to keep my staples dry. The f****d up part is that it was a whole lot more comfortable wearing the brace while I healed vs taking it off when I would shower. It basically held my insides in place while I healed and as soon as I would take it off my abdomen/stomach area would become distended because everything would shift around. Cancer f*****g sucks kids!

When you think of blood, what color comes to mind? Many of us might think of the color red because humans and many animals have red blood due to the iron in their hemoglobin. However, some animals have different colored blood as well. A copper-based hemocyanin gives the blood of snails, octopi, horseshoe crabs, and some other creatures its characteristic blue-ish or clear color.

Some creatures even have yellow blood, like sea cucumbers. A high concentration of the yellow pigment vanabin, which is based on vanadium, is what causes the yellow coloration.

I had a stroke four years ago and heard a lot of stroke horror stories! One was a 19 year old who had had a massive stroke around the same time I did. (Birth control pills were suspected! They can cause high blood pressure in some women!) Another, young woman, like early twenties, paramedic. She was performing CPR on another person when SHE had a massive stroke and died! AVM was suspected. Other person died too, the one she was giving CPR to, in case you were wondering.

Well all of these make my flatworm tidbit seem meek.

When flatworms mate, two "males" use their bifurcated penises to fence one another. The winner, or the flatworm who stabs the other with its penis dagger, remains a male while the loser becomes female and will be impregnated.

Edit to correct the meaning of bifurcated. They don't detach it. Bifurcated means split in two.

The mere sight of a cockroach can turn a grown adult into a squealing acrobat. These six-legged creatures can survive an entire week without their heads. Imagine you go to get water from the kitchen at 3 a.m. and you see a headless roach. It sounds pretty scary.

Cockroaches are not dependent on the mouth or head to breathe. Due to their open circulatory system, they breathe through little holes in each of their body segments. The reason they die without a mouth is because they can't drink water and die of thirst.

My father's school did a guided tour through the woods searching and learning about local herbs.

A few years later, my father was still a child, police showed up and asked him if he recognised the man in a picture that they showed him. My father explained that he was the herbalist tour guide.

Apparently, the guy had murdered several boys and had my father's name and address in his car.

The police had caught the guy by this point. I think he killed himself or died in suspicious circumstances...

Just like we experience goosebumps, so do the bodies of deceased people. However, while a living person’s body hair might rise up because of cold, fear, or excitement, the biological process is different for someone who is not alive.

ADVERTISEMENT

Heather Brown, a mortician-turned-death-investigator based in New Orleans, explained, “It’s one of the amazing displays our bodies exhibit when they begin to break down. So, immediately after the death occurs, the decomposition process begins. What you’re seeing with postmortem ‘goosebumps’ is rigor mortis.”

A spider cannot chew or swallow food. This is why they need to digest their food outside their bodies. First, spiders immobilize their prey by injecting venom into their bodies. The poison turns the insides of its prey to liquid, and the spider sucks it up.

Butterflies aren't only cute and pretty, they also have some peculiar habits. For instance, few butterflies feed on the tears of reptiles. Dr Andrew Mitchell, Senior Research Scientist, Entomology at the Australian Museum Research Institute, says, “It’s been documented many times in Central and South America with butterflies feeding on turtle and alligator tears. People have hypothesized that they’re obtaining salts and/or proteins.”

50 Spooky Facts About Our World That Are Hard To Digest Carl Tanzler fell in love with Maria Elena Milagro de Hoyos, a young tuberculosis patient at the Key West hospital where he was a radiology technician — but his fondness grew into an obsession after she died in 1931. Tanzler lived with the corpse of the woman he loved for seven years. When she started to decompose, he embalmed her body and stuffed her with cottonwool. When she was eventually discovered, he was asked at his trial if he ever "consummated" their relationship. He said no, but "stuff" was found in the cottonwool of her... ahem, bathing suit area.

Jing2203:
To complete this, I'd like to add that it's legal ONLY if the person gave consent to getting married with you before their death. You can't just get any random corpse and marry it, you have to be engaged AND have filled all the paperwork together before the death of the person. Also, it is a pretty rare situation, as the president themselves have to give their authorisation for the marriage to be considered legal.

Some of the victims of Pompeii may of taken up to 15 minutes to suffocate to death by inhaling the scalding hot pyroclastic ash and gases. Other victims died by having their skulls explode from the searing temperatures of the flows. There was also one poor dude they found who'd been basically incinerated in an instant while taking cover in bed.

My Doctor & I have not quite figured out which of my medications is giving me such extreme dry mouth. I wake up in the morning and my lips are stuck to my teeth - Fireman Bill style (Lemme show ya sumptin). As soon as I brush my teeth (and tongue) it gets a bit better. I then down a really cold bottle of water and keep drinking water all day. Frustrating as f*ck, (especially for my husband who enjoys certain "pleasures").

The bacterial spores of Bacillus cereus are in all rice varieties and aren't destroyed when cooked as the spores and toxin (which make you sick) are heat resistant. But they aren't active until your rice stays around room temperature for them to germinate. So it's best to cool it down a bit then immediately put it in the fridge. Also don't reheat it more than once.

It's been repeated and grossly exaggerated in the internet in recent years after one high-profile case when someone died after eating pasta that they'd left out for a week, uncovered and at room temperature, after cooking. So yes, there are risks, but there's no more reason to be scared of eating rice after a couple of days in the fridge than any other food.

That’s the woman the musical Evita was about. The one that later became a movie with Madonna in the starring role.

50 Spooky Facts About Our World That Are Hard To Digest There are more cells in your body that belong to other things like bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites than actual human cells.

Some are beneficial, some harmful, and most are just along for the ride. Also we’re riddled with microplastics so that’s fun too.
