Strange and bizarre human facts

Among the many bizarre functions of our bodies, there are some that are just plain scary. Let's explore some of more fascinating and obscure functions found in the human body.

Human hearts are capable of beating 100,000 times per day. While this might seem small, it is a significant number. You can also see blood squirting 30 feet away.

The human eye contains more than five hundred million pixels. That's more than half a million times bigger than the average cell phone. Thanks to the cilia that clings to the eyeball, a human eye may also grow as big as a football.

The light that the human eye produces can be enough to illuminate small spaces. There are approximately 100,000 miles in blood vessels within the human body. These arteries transport oxygen from the blood to the tissues.

The "diving reflex" is an entire system that stops certain bodily functions from being affected by submersion. When we see something beautiful, our pupil expands 45%.

The appendix is another organ. Untreated, this organ could become infected. It's possible to get rid of as much as 80% if the liver is not cleaned up.

The human body has many wonders. It is rich in enough fat to make seven bars worth of soap. It is home to many millions of bacteria. The skin is the largest organ of the body and is oily and hairy. It also contains more than one thousand types of bacteria.

The human body has the ability to perform many strange and mundane tasks. The ominous is one example. We can blink 10 million time per year. There are many things going on inside the mouth. You also breathe and swallow, in addition to the obvious functions.

The toilet is also available. Toilets are not only the largest and most important parts of a bathroom, but they also provide the primary source of reading material for an average home. The average person drinks 20,000 gallons of water during their lifetime.

In addition to the obvious, there is also a "sneezing” function in the human body. Exercising too much can lead to rib fractures. In the human nose, there are over 8,000 tastebuds. More than one hundred taste buds are found in the tongue.

The human brain produces more than enough energy to power a light bulb. And if you don't count the ovaries, the human body is capable of producing 350,000 joules of energy per hour. This is enough energy to turn a lightbulb on.

Some other fascinating facts about human bodies include our "diving", reflex, eyes being the largest organ of our bodies and the fact that our bodies can fly. Our roads are also home to more cars than we have people. But there are more sea crayfish than humans so it's safe say that the human body has more power than most people realize.

What dark secrets do Hollywood have?

Hollywood is full of secret societies. Many secret societies are cult-like and follow rigid rules. Others are just clubs for people with common interests.

There are other nefarious entities that have a significant influence on the industry. There are companies like the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), who sets film ratings and the RIAA, which sets music licensing fees.

Many unions and guilds represent actors, directors writers, producers, and others. The majority of major television networks and movie studios are owned by large corporations.

The fact is that regardless of how secretive any group may be, someone somewhere knows exactly who they are. They shouldn't be fearful, however.

Instead, embrace them. Because they help us make better choices.

They tell us what movies will likely succeed, what songs will be popular, and what books will best sell.

They allow us to make informed decisions about what we buy, watch and listen to.

We can trust them and can disregard their advice if it is not in line with our preferences.

Because we have chosen to ignore their power, they are even more powerful. They are the ultimate judges of taste.

You are free to ignore their messages if that bothers you.

Let's now look at some lesser-known, but still very real Hollywood secret organizations.

And see why they're so important.

What is the reason actors are blacklisted?

When you're an actor, there's more rejection than when you're a writer. Actors are likely to be rejected often. You will find someone who loves and accepts you eventually.

Actors have a lot of talent, so they can make a decent living almost anywhere. But most actors don't want to make a lot of money. Actors enjoy acting and telling stories. Actors are likely to be outspoken.

Sometimes, auditions are cancelled because you are either too young or too old for the job. You might also lose your audition for a film role. It happens all the times.

But once you've been cast, you may also face criticism. People may tell you that your makeup looks terrible and you shouldn't use it. If you're lucky, you won't even hear negative comments.

Sometimes, you might be criticised for playing a role that isn’t authentic or realistic. Maybe you play a gay man, and everyone thinks you're straight. Perhaps you play a woman that is supposed to be strong but who cries a lot.

Sometimes, they ask you to change your voice. Sometimes they ask for you to sound like a male or female. They usually want you sound better.

Negative criticisms are best ignored. Actors often feel like they've failed if they're told they did something wrong. But the truth is that they haven't done anything wrong.

They didn't have the talent to make them famous. Sometimes, no matter what they do, they just don't fit the bill.

Blacklisting can happen for many reasons. Some people don't like actors. Others think actors can be lazy. Others still believe that actors cheat.

Whatever your reason, it doesn't matter. You won't get blacklisted for trying. There are plenty of jobs available and you'll find them.

You will eventually succeed if you keep trying.

Is there a Hollywood blacklist of actors?

There is a Hollywood blacklist.

But the list isn't made public. According to our knowledge, the names of these people aren't known. It matters because of this.

The secretive nature of the information is due to the fact that actors and directors on blacklist won't be in a position to find work. Thus, they would leave the industry and studios will lose money. This would mean that they would cut back on movie production. That would reduce the opportunities for blacklisted filmmakers. They would then go bankrupt.

Which could ultimately result in more victims.

When someone tries making an Oscar winning movie they might be asked for a contract. This means that they can't publicly criticize their employer. The same goes for any director or producer who wants to get nominated for an award.

It's no surprise that directors are often forced to take out scenes in their films by producers. Directors might threaten to leave projects that don't reflect their vision.

This is why Hollywood keeps a blacklist. If you are negative about your employer, you'll most likely go unemployed. It's not good for anyone.

There are many people who have been falsely accused. These people have had to fight to clear their names.

We need to stop this kind of thing before it starts happening again. Everybody should be able to freely express themselves.

So we need to take down the Hollywood blacklist.
