60+ Cool Facts I Spent All Night Googling and You Will Too

Animals like cats, dogs, elephants, and humans have ears that stick out to help funnel sound vibrations into their inner ears! Dolphins, on the other hand, don’t have outer ears but have some of the sharpest hearing around. Scientists think dolphins use a part of their jawbone to send vibrations to their inner ears. Inside the inner ear, these vibrations travel to the cochlea, which is full of tiny hair cells that help detect different sound frequencies. The longer an animal's cochlea, the more types of hair cells it has, giving it a wider range of hearing abilities. Pretty cool, right?

Do you often visit places where Earth acts in a mysterious way? Like places with zero gravity or where objects turn into stones? Or never-ending lightening storms... or waterfalls that go nowhere. Probably, not so often. But here's a list of unusual places located right here on our planet that will definitely give you shivers... The Devil’s Kettle Waterfall is situated in Minnesota in the US. And it looks like a pretty average waterfall. However, what's interesting about it is that it has 2 different bodies of water. People visiting the waterfall have dropped different objects into it and never got them back... As they never reappeared in the stream. I wouldn't want my phone to fall into that stream of water!

What do you think about, as you gaze up into the night sky? Do you think about how the stars are formed or why the Sun is so bright? All the stars we see in the sky are in a fragile balance of powers. Inside each star, there're nuclear reactions going on that produce incredible amounts of energy. This energy gives the light that we observe every day. This energy makes the starry sky so beautiful and mesmerizing.  However, this energy is also so powerful that it increases the pressure inside a star each time. What would happen if the pressure got too powerful to handle? Let's explore this and many other questions about celestial bodies!

The latest findings about Neanderthals say they were way smarter than we ever gave them credit for. Recent research has shown they made complex tools, used fire for cooking, and even created art like cave paintings and carvings. They also had their own social structures and cultural practices, suggesting they communicated and worked together in sophisticated ways. They weren’t just the brutish cavemen we once imagined. It’s pretty amazing to think how advanced and intelligent our ancient cousins really were! #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

Did you know some things aren’t actually what we call them? Take cinnamon, for instance – most of what we buy is actually cassia, a totally different spice. Nutmeg and mace come from the same plant but are used differently. Vanilla flavoring often comes from synthetic vanillin instead of real vanilla beans. So next time you’re spicing up your food, you might be getting a little something different than you thought! #brightside Credit: Pyrex dish: By شہاب, CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/..., https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index...
