Weird Facts u know

Did you know that Capcom made its own video game console at one point in the mid-1990s?
I'm guessing that would be the CPS system motherboard for Arcades?

That would be the Capcom Power System Changer!
Not the Capcom Play System of the arcades.

It is possible to dodge a laser if it was about to hit the last atom of your body while you were running you would be able to get out of the way.

Untrue. This would need the ability to move a body part faster than the speed of light. Impossible, as I state. Besides, who's aim is THAT bad? You can't dodge it, so aim for the chest!
But still technically you dodge it and you don't have to be moving faster than the speed of light in order to dodge it. You could throw a baseball at someone at 90km/h and the person would only need to walk out of the way inorder to dodge it. Same would happen with a laser from 100m away but if you try to dodge it and it was someone in the middle of your chest, yeah you wouldn't be able to get out of the way. I just like to prove things wrong.
Blargh, didn't think of it that way. Too bad nobody sucks that hard.

HOW THE HELL DO COCONUTS KILL PEOPLE!?

Fun Facts
An eagle can see prey as small as a nickle from a quarter mile away.
The average city bus costs 250,000 dollars.
I got 2:

1.) there s a strange way to get to Japan, but if you are in no hurry: stay in Hawaii and wait it to move 4 INCHES to Japan a year!

2.)Lightning can kill you, but only if you have Electrolytes in your body! Lightning follows this stuff, so if you have no electrolytes, and stay in a thunderstorm, you will NEVER be hit by a lightning!

Read.
Oh! And a black hole has an end to it, technically. Except thos "end" isn't an end point, it's an end TIME. In the case of a black hole, this end "time" would be the end of time, as the collapsed star would instantly expose one to anti-matter, though you wouldn't know it. You'd be ripped to shreds, then compressed to a ball of matter in half of a second.

Another odd fact. If you took a spoonful of matter from a dying star, it's weigh over one MILLION tons on Earth. One spoonfull.

Yay! I knew this!!
