What is the most surprising fact about your body?
Two eyes, two ears, 2 nostrils, 4 limbs, 1 nose, 1 penis and one mouth are all there. It's true, we have more 50 parts of our body, but there is one thing missing. A heart.
A heart is a pump that circulates blood throughout the body. The blood flows through the veins and arteries to carry oxygen and nutrients to the cells.
Each minute, the heart pumps 5 liters of blood. This is equivalent in daily coffee consumption to an adult who consumes approximately 2 to 3 cups.
The heart pumps blood 24 hours a days, 365 days per year. While you are sleeping, your heart beats about 100 times per second.
Because of the color and texture of their skin, you can tell if someone is healthy or sick. If you examine the skin closely, you will see tiny blood vessels called capillaries. These tiny vessels transport blood from the larger blood vessels to the heart. If blood flow is blocked, skin can turn blue or purple.
People with sickle cells lack red blood cell. Their blood becomes very sticky and hardened, leading to serious illness.
A bandage can be used to stop bleeding if you have cut your own skin. For the wound to heal properly, blood must continue to flow. Doctors will insert a needle under the skin to access the vein near the injury. This allows the blood from the injured area to drain.
Doctors also insert tubes (catheters) into the artery near the site where the blood clot forms. This helps to keep the patient alive until the blood clot disintegrates naturally.
What are some dark secrets in Hollywood?
Hollywood is filled with secret societies. There are many secret societies in Hollywood. Some are cult-like, where members adhere to strict rules and rituals. Others are clubs for people who share similar interests.
Some of the most powerful organizations in the industry are even more dangerous. There are companies like the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), who sets film ratings and the RIAA, which sets music licensing fees.
Numerous unions and guilds also represent actors, directors, writers, producers, etc. Many of the major TV networks and movie studios are owned or controlled by large corporations.
It doesn't really matter how secretive an organization may appear, there is always someone who knows exactly what they do. However, we shouldn't fear them.
Instead, we should embrace these facts. Because they can help us make better decisions.
These experts tell us which movies are most likely to succeed, which songs will be in demand, and what books will sell the best.
In short, they help us decide what we'll buy, watch, read, and listen to.
We can trust them and can disregard their advice if it is not in line with our preferences.
We choose to ignore them and they become even more powerful. They are the ultimate arbiters and judges of taste.
If you don't like their words, you can choose to ignore them.
Let's now take a look into some lesser-known but very real Hollywood secret societies.
Observe why they are important.
What is your most secretive community?
The answer may shock you. It may even make it uncomfortable, as it challenges our perceptions of reality and our lives. But there is a reason why this place exists. And it is not what you would expect.
The City of God was its name by the ancient Greeks. In the Bible, it was known as the City of Destruction.
It is also called Kashi in India (Kashmir). It's known in Russia as Novgorod.
However, in America it is called The Town that Disappeared.
One small community in western New York State with 1,200 residents vanished without a trace. It was abandoned without any remains, including no bodies, cars, or houses. The only thing that survived was a road sign, which pointed to its former location.
The little village vanished, with no trace of its existence. Some say it was swallowed up by the Earth. Others claim that a meteorite hit destroyed it. Still, others say aliens took it away.
The people of this once-thriving community, however, are positive that the town won't disappear forever. They had just relocated to another town.
You can even track the disappearance of Zugspitz on a dedicated website.
You might be wondering where this town went. It's in Switzerland.
The border of Austria and Germany is at Zugspitze. Just beyond the summit of the mountain is a huge lake called Lake Zugspitze.
It's always fascinated me how so many towns disappear, yet others remain. What is the difference between some towns that disappear and others that survive? I decided to investigate.
I wanted to learn more about mysteriously disappearing towns. What makes a town disappear? What makes a place disappear?
It turned out that there are many theories about disappearing towns. One theory states that a town vanishes when all its buildings are destroyed. Another theory holds that the town simply relocates to another location. A third theory states that the town didn't exist at all.
There are many theories, but the truth is that thousands of towns around the world have been submerged by the earth. This video examines both the history and current status.
