lol I love these lists.
I found a list before that had thousends, it said it cant gaurentee they are correct but they are useless.
I liked that site a lot.
No animal, once frozen solid (i.e., water solidifies and turns to ice) survives when thawed, because the ice crystals formed inside cells would break open the cell membranes. However there are certain frogs that can survive the experience of being frozen. These frogs make special proteins, which prevent the formation of ice (or at least keep the crystals from becoming very large), so that they actually never freeze even though their body temperature is below zero Celsius. The water in them remains liquid: a phenomenon known as ’supercooling.’ If you disturb one of these frogs (just touching them even), the water in them quickly freezes solid and they die.
some turtles and insect buggys can too i thought, i dont know 100% but i thought i was pretty sure of it. I know its not only froggys though.

| A good many of those are urban legends, and can be checked on sites like snopes.com. |

While there is breathable liquid as seen in the TV series UFO and the movie The Abyss, it is actually hard to breathe unassisted, as there is too much of a carbon dioxide buildup. That said, the rat is actually breathing the liquid in The Abyss (but Ed Harris actually isn't when he's in the suit), and perflubron, the stuff seen in the movie is still being evaluated as medical treatment.

Are all those true?
Smelling bananas and/or green apples (smelling, not eating) can help you lose weight!
Boys who have unusual first names are more likely to have mental problems than boys with conventional names. Girls don’t seem to have this problem.
Over 2500 left handed people a year are killed from using products made for right handed people! 
Over 10,000 birds a year die from smashing into windows!
Thomas Edison, lightbulb inventor, was afraid of the dark!
During World War II, W.C. Fields kept US $50,000 in Germany ‘in case the little bastard wins’.
It is a criminal offence to drive around in a dirty car in Russia.
It is illegal to be a prostitute in Siena, Italy, if your name is Mary.
The Chinese ideogram for ‘trouble’ depicts two women living under one roof’.
To “testify” was based on men in the Roman court swearing to a statement made by swearing on their testicles.
haha
It’s rumored that sucking on a copper penny will cause a breath-alyzer to read 0.

It is a criminal offence to drive around in a dirty car in Russia. If this is true then it will be impossible to enforce. Some of the cars I saw in Moscow were filthy and falling apart.
To “testify” was based on men in the Roman court swearing to a statement made by swearing on their testicles. True, and if they told a lie guess what got chopped off?
It’s rumored that sucking on a copper penny will cause a breathalyzer to read 0. Not true, it will however turn your tongue green.

A divining rod is more accurate than a breathalyzer, more scientific too.
