You likely have never swallowed a spider since they aren't likely going to crawl in your mouth.
Dogs with black mouths are smarter than dogs with pink mouths. Not true.
Julius Caesar wasn't caesarian section born as that would have been absolutely fatal to the mother back then.
Mountain Dew doesn't have a chemical that shrinks anything.
Humans didn't evolve from current apes, we share a common ancestor.
Cracking your knuckles doesn't cause arthritis, and I hate my mom for trying to make me believe otherwise.
NASA didn't invest millions of dollars on a gravity pen, just to show up the Russians who were using pencils.
The Dark Ages weren't that dark, nor was there religious authority supremacy hanging over everyone's heads.
Jonestown used Flavor-Aid, not Kool-Aid.
Snakes don't actually unhinge their jaws...their mouths have special bones to help extend.
Benjamin Franklin didn't want the turkey to be the national bird, so much as he just really hated the Bald Eagle.
King Tut's tomb didn't have a curse on it, nor did anyone die of the alleged curse.
Salem witches were usually hung, not burned at the stake, if they were even sentenced to death at all.
Wolves don't have a pack leader, most leaders are situational to the present.
Toilets flush both ways on both hemispheres.
Mussolini didn't make the trains run on time. His predecessors had already accomplished this.
Vikings didn't have horns on their helmets.
Most bats can see better than humans.
There is no literal dark side of the moon...unless you're referring to the Pink Floyd album.
We have more than five senses; equilibrioception, proprioception, thermoception and interoception.
Drinking alcohol raises your blood temperature....no, it will likely create the opposite effect, which is why every year there are multiple cases of drunk people freezing to death.
Female praying mantises only eat their mate 2% of the time.
Lightning strikes twice in the same place at least 1/3 of the time.
Birds don't die from eating wedding rice, as it's impossible for the rice to expand the same way as it does when it's boiled.
Voodoo is an offshoot of Christianity.
Expanding on the flat Earth nonsense, the idea that you would "fall off" the edge of the Earth was mostly an Eastern theory, not European.
If getting hit in the head with a grape sized piece of hail isn't going to kill you, why would a penny from the Empire State Building?
The Great Wall of China isn't the only thing you can see from space, however it really depends on what you classify as space to begin with. Point is...if you can see the GWoC, then you're also going to see highways and other manmade things.
Rosa Parks wasn't sitting in the white section of the bus. However, she did refuse to give up her seat to a white man, which is actually way more awesome than the story that is told.
Iron maidens weren't historically used as torture devices...unless you hate Bruce Dickenson's vocals.
Similarly, chastity belts are a more recent phenomenon, the most legit one comes from the 19th century.
Skinheads aren't a just a far right thing. SHARP has existed for almost 40 years.
George Washington's teeth were a combination of hippopotamus tusks and human teeth, and they were spring loaded. They weren't wood.
Washington also never chopped down a cherry tree and admitted it to his father. Washington in reality was actually quick to point the blame at others when an acting General.
You cannot digest gum. It just gets pushed out with your poo.
The Emancipation Proclamation didn't free all slaves. There were several Union states that still had slavery until 1865 with the 13th Amendment going into place, and with New Jersey, Delaware, Kentucky, and Mississippi voting against it. Mississippi does not officially ratify it until 2013. *sigh*
