[SIZE=12px][SIZE=32px]Mountain Dew Reduces The Sperm Count[/SIZE][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px][SIZE=16px]Mountain dew, one of the most famous carbonated drinks, is rumoured to gradually reduce sperm-count.[/SIZE][/SIZE]

[SIZE=12px]Mountain dew is a carbonated soft drink which is owned by PepsiCo. Its formula was originally developed by two Tennessee bottlers, Barney and Ally Hartman in 1940s. These rumours were also faced by Mello Yello, another Coca Cola product, and now it’s the same regarding Mountain Dew.[/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=12px][FONT=Verdana]The reason behind these rumours is the presence of a dye called Yellow no.5, which is thought to be dangerous to health and sperm production. This substance is also called tartrazine which has been approved by the Food and Drug Association (FDA) for the use in food, drug and cosmetics. The only thing which is required by FDA regarding tartrazine is that its presence should be mentioned in making of the product.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]According to Joe Conaghan, PhD and board-certified high-complexity clinical laboratory director at the Pacific Fertility Centre, in an e-mail that there is no scientific evidence that proves yellow 5 is harmful to sperm. Conaghan claims that[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px][FONT=Verdana][FONT=Arial]“This is simply not true, and is just one of the many stupid ideas that reckless young people perpetuate about sex.”[/FONT][/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px][FONT=Verdana]The only problem FDA has identified regarding tartrazine is its effect on sensitive people with a variety of allergic reactions. It is this dye which gives Mountain Dew its yellowish colour.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px][FONT=Verdana]So drinking this “sperm reducing refreshment” is safe and rumours about it are just myths and there are no scientific proofs to this rumour[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=12px]All around the world there are many weird and bizarre contests, like the Extreme Ironing championships or the Chess Kickboxing; but one contest that has recently caught the public’s eye is Japan’s Farting Contest. It is a public contest which is more bizarre than any of the modern day’s extreme contests.[/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=12px][FONT=Verdana]Japan which is regarded as ‘The Land of Rising Sun’ and ‘The Land of Samurais’ do a have comical side too. Although in African tribes, of Malawi, farting may be considered offense but in old Japan public farting contest were held regularly and the person who could fart loudest and longest was considered as winner. The winner receives great commendation and prizes.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]This “fad” also seems to have quite some impact on other countries too, and not just Japan in particular. These contests have begun worldwide, but on a smaller level. To end this on a high note: Greet your guests by farting. It’s considered a greeting by an Indian tribe in South America[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12px][SIZE=32px]Nudity At The Back Of The Nobel Prize[/SIZE][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px][SIZE=16px]Nobel Prize medals, designed by Gustav Vigeland, contains three naked men at the back to symbolize International fraternization.[/SIZE][/SIZE]
[SIZE=10px]![[Image: nobel-prize-naked-guy.jpg]](http://www.whattheffacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/nobel-prize-naked-guy.jpg)
[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]The Nobel Prize is without a doubt the most prestigious award given to people from all around the world who help culture new ideas and theories in science. It was named after Alfred Nobel and the medal was designed by a Norwegian sculptor, Gustav Vigeland. The front side of the medal has the face of Alfred Nobel whereas the back side depicts three naked men embracing one another forming a fraternal bond with the inscription, “Pro pace et fraternities gentium,” This means “For the peace and brotherhood of men.” On the medal, the naked guys hold their hands on each other shoulders which symbolize International fraternization.[/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=12px]It was not the only sculpture of Gustav which portrayed nudity, but the sculptures of Vigeland Sculpture Park in Oslo, Norway are also created by him in which he crafted 212 bronze and granite sculptures; all of them nude. Men, children and even women are depicted totally nude in that park. It was noted that Gustav was influenced by the ancient Renaissance artworks, because sculptures of that time were depicted naked.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px][FONT=Verdana]Before the 1980s, the Nobel Prize medal was made up of 23 carat gold but newer Nobel Prize medals are 18 carat gold plated with 24 carat gold. Despite of this change in the substance of the medal, the design and the engraving on the medal remains the same to the core which may look pretty cool to queer men[/FONT][/SIZE]

[SIZE=12px][SIZE=32px]The Pokémon Terror in Japan[/SIZE][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]
[SIZE=16px]In 1997, 685 kids in Japan were rushed to hospitals after an intense Pokemon episode caused dizziness, vomiting and seizures.[/SIZE]

[/SIZE]Pokémon is not just a cartoon in Japan, it’s a phenomenon and this phenomenon started as a game for the handheld Nintendo Gameboy system which churns out millions of dollars for its makers. This legacy of pokémania jumped from game to a cartoon show and was just as successful as its game was. It was in 1997 when an episode of Pokémon caused mayhem throughout Japan as thousands of children were rushed to hospitals reporting illnesses ranging from nausea to seizures after watching the episode.
It was the 38th episode of Pokémon in which the animators depict Pikachu’s electric attack with a quick series of flashing lights. According to reports, these flashing lights were the main culprit behind all the chaos. A doctor had this to say regarding the incident;
“…Went into a trance-like state, similar to hypnosis, complaining of shortness of breath, nausea, and bad vision . . .” (Snyder 1997).[/FONT]
The news spread like wildfire as other TV channels repeated the clip which caused more children to suffer the ailments. One of the victims portrayed his experience as;
“Towards the end of the program there was an explosion, and I had to close my eyes because of an enormous yellow light like a camera flash” (MSNBC 1997).
Another 15 year old girl recalls “As I was watching blue and red lights flashing on the screen, I felt my body becoming tense. I do not remember what happened afterward”. After this tragic incident, TV Tokyo issued an official apology for the incident and suspended the Pokémon show. Thousands of mothers headed out to roads and protested against the TV channel’s policy and the whole crisis reached a point that the Prime Minster of Japan had to intervene. Later thorough research by experts concluded that the bright flashing lights caused Photosensitive Epilepsy (PSE) which caused nausea and other symptoms.
Despite this major setback, Pokémon continued to be a success and was favored by children from around the world

[SIZE=12px][SIZE=32px]Adolf Hitler Had Only One Testicle[/SIZE][/SIZE]
[SIZE=12px]
[SIZE=16px]The person, who changed the face of Europe, created an unparalleled legacy was short on testicles! Yes, Hitler had only one ball.[/SIZE]

[/SIZE]Adolf Hitler was without doubt, the most aspiring German chancellor of all time and has been considered foremost on the list of the most brutal and vile leaders. He was accused by many historians of unusual sexual behavior and abnormal physical defects. Many of the abnormalities were considered myths and concocted but the most famous among them was that Hitler had only one testicle. Many would believe that this was merely a tale told out of hatred to Hitler. But it wasn’t so.
It had been claimed that the Nazi leader lost a testicle during the battle of Somme in 1916, long before he was considered as Fuhrer.[/FONT]
It was proved that he received a groin injury in the Battle of Somme but the fact that he lost his testicle confused historians for decades. The only piece of information historians have gathered regarding this issue is the disclosure of the document which contains the conversation between the German war doctor, Johan Jambor and his priest, Franciszek Pawlar. The priest recorded their conversation and it came to light after Jambor’s death. Jambor recalled in 1916 that they had their toughest fight in the Battle of Somme. For several hours, Johan and his friends picked up injured soldiers and he’d remembered Hitler. They called him the ‘Screamer’ as he kept screaming for help. His abdomen and legs were covered in blood as he had an abdominal injury and had lost one testicle. His first question to the doctor was: “Will I be able to have children?”
The doctor who saved Hitler later had nightmares as Hitler turned into a killing machine as he rose to power and Jambor blamed himself for saving such a monster.
But among many of the unfounded rumors against Hitler, this buzz seems to have some solid proof too which brings us to our last point; “What other monstrosities could’ve Hitler accomplished if he had both of his testicles?
