A tsunami is a string of immense waves that appear after earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, underwater landslides, and even asteroid impacts.

Cats and yarn - they go together like peanut butter and jelly! Only...they don't! No matter how many times you see it in movies or cute cat calendars, you should never give your kitty yarn or string to play with! Your cat can swallow it, and the end result can be really bad. Same goes for giving your feline friend milk, too many cuddles, and lots more common mistakes pet owners have no idea they're making! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The human eye is the second most complex organ after the brain. How exactly does the human eye work? How do our eyes see? The human eye is an amazing organ! Did you know, for example, that your pupil is not a black circle in your eyeball – it’s a hole! Black, because there’s no light inside your eye. Red in flash photos because the light from the camera is passing through and bouncing off the back of your eye. Or have you ever heard that your cornea has no blood vessels? They get oxygen directly from the air, so your eyes breathe! But it’s full of super-sensitive nerves. They sense something foreign, and the fastest muscles in your body get to work. Your eyes themselves are about the size of ping pong balls. And just within this seemingly small little organ, there are over 2 million working parts! Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever been held up in airport security because some knucklehead broke probably every liquid rule there is? Going through security is hard enough, so why on Earth have they come up with this ridiculous liquid thing to slow us all down? What's so dangerous about a bottle of water or your favorite perfume or cologne? Does it have something to do with the pressure in the cabin? Can my liquids somehow mess with the plane’s navigational system? That’s why they ask you to put your cellphone on airplane mode – maybe the two are related? I’m sure you know by now that it all comes down to security. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
