Common myths you probably still believe
There’s something captivating about myths and urban legends. From childhood fairy tales to popular folklore, these intriguing tales have made a home in our collective consciousness. But the truth, as they say, is often stranger than fiction. Today, we’ll debunk some common myths you probably still believe. And trust us. The truth is far more entertaining than you might imagine!
Myth 1: Lightning never strikes the same place twice
This 1 is electrifying, literally! Contrary to popular belief, lightning often strikes the same place repeatedly. The Empire State Building, for instance, gets hit about 25 times a year. See, lightning is all about finding the easiest path to the ground, and tall structures provide just that.
Myth 2: Humans have 5 senses
Remember learning about the 5 senses in school? Sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing, right? Well, science begs to differ. Humans actually have at least 9 senses and possibly as many as 21. These include balance, temperature, and pain… Senses we often don’t even consider.
Myth 3: Swallowed chewing gum stays in your system for 7 years
The fear of an eternal gum-gut stuck with us from childhood into adulthood. But guess what? It’s a myth! While it’s true our bodies can’t digest chewing gum, it doesn’t linger for years. Instead, it passes through our system in about a week, just like most things we eat.
Myth 4: There’s a dark side of the moon
This myth is lunar lunacy! There’s no permanent dark side of the moon. Every part of the moon gets its fair share of sunlight. The moon rotates on its axis, and 1 complete rotation takes about 27 days (the same time it takes to orbit the Earth once). Thus, we always see the same side of the moon from Earth.
Myth 5: Insurance is expensive and unnecessary
While we’re here debunking myths, let’s bust another common 1: Insurance is expensive and unnecessary. That’s not true at all! Not only is insurance there to help you recover financially when things go wrong (like when you’re in an accident), but insurers like King Price actually go above and beyond to offer insurance solutions that don’t break the bank! We’re all about offering simple cheap insurance and royal service.
