There's a lot of sh*t you should know For example: Today, the
people of earth take more photos in two minutes than they did in
the whole of the nineteenth century. The Andromeda galaxy is 2.6
million light years from earth, but can be seen with the naked eye
on a clear night. The first marathon was undertaken in 490 BCE by a
Greek messenger running from Marathon to Athens - unfortunately, he
died of exhaustion when he arrived. This outrageously informative
book is bursting with enough mind-blowing trivia to make your head
spin. Whether you want to know your shit about history, science,
literature, technology, sport, geography or almost any other kind
of miscellanea, this is the essential guide for you.
HORNY LIZARDS AND HEADLESS CHICKENS is a vile and disgusting
compendium of the world's most unpleasant creatures, diseases,
hideous tortures and every other type of horrifying, nauseating
fact imaginable. Questions posed in the book address revolting
matters such as: * Do flies really puke on your food? * Which worm
can eat its way through the human eye? * And how long does a head
remain conscious after being guillotined? In HORNY LIZARDS AND
HEADLESS CHICKENS, readers can explore a huge range of horrible
subjects, which most books have the good sense to avoid, including
Aztec sacrifices, bizarre medical treatments, body snatchers,
cannibalism, and eye-wateringly unpleasant execution methods. You
are guaranteed a brilliantly sickening read.
